MAHER ON THE M'COOK CASE The McCook i hinges around the right ~of the state the land it thinks it needs for an en- largément of the children’s tubercu- at Saybrook, or to acquire Josis sanitarium orwhether the McCook estate can with- hold the iand. Politics, too, where the welfare of children guf- fering with tuberculosis is concern- are involved; but “ed, we intend to ignore the politics. The clarifying statement of Dr. <Gtephen J. Maher of New chairman of the commission ,claims Governor Templeton favored the ac- quisition of the entire McCook estate through condemnation proceedings, it and when the tuberculosis sani- tarium needed it. Justice McCook, senior member of state tuberculosis that originally the McCook family of sons, even is quoted as having originally suggest- . ed such condemnation proceedings. Later, after Mr. Templeton be- eame governor, Anson T. McCook, one of the brothers owning the Me- Cook estate, became the governor's & executive secretary. And it was then, “according to Dr. Maher, that Gov- ernor Templeton changed his mind and agreed with his executive secre- tary that the property should not be taken over by the state. Subsequent- _ly. according to Dr. Maher, the state | tuberculosis board was forced to agree 0 the acceptance of 60 feet if no condemnation proceedings for further property were carried out. The Maher statement does not put Governor Templeton in a good light. . It shows that the governor from Waterbury at first favored the state acquiring the McCook estate and then changed his mind after he be- eame governor and having one of the McCooks as an executive secretary. But the state political machine . headed by Mr. Roraback, and which ‘“was bitterly opposed to Governor Templeton on this and some other matters, also made a mistake. The mistake was one characteristic of steam roller politics. It put through & bill in the Legisiature which the Supreme Court described in the fol- lowing fashion: “On May 27, 1925, the committee on appropriations, without notice, eitation or hearing. reported the bill which is the act upon which the present action is based. The bill was Pprepared outside of the committee and was not introduced and referred In the usual way.” There have been too much politics eharges, denials, recriminations and bad feelings mixed in the McCook ease. The participants in this cause eelebre need to shed these considera- tions and go at sible fashion. If the state needs all of the Mc- Cook nothing should stand the way of the state acquiring it, not even the McCooks.

C., when Judge M. V. Barnhill granted a ital of the adjoining county of Mecklenburg, in the case of the 16 men and women charged the murder of Police Chief Aderholdt on the night of June 7. The change of venue means that with there will not be another Sacco- Vanzetti case, with its implications of unfairness due to the prejudiced community, which impossible to obtain | attitude of the | would make it | an .open-minded jury.’ The attitude of Judge Barnhill was one to be highly commended to themselves faced predicament. The judge declared he helieved person- ally that a fair trial could be had but in order to circum- | judges who find with a similar | in Gastonia vent possible charges that this had | not been achieved, he was perfectly willing to grant the change of venue. That attitude, had it been faken in the Sacco-Vanzetti case, would have avoided much that followed.

WATCHING THOSE WHO NEED IT Much as one regrets the necessity of regimenting youth one cannot help seeing an advantage in the plan ! to Police Commmasioner Whalen of New York that it should be one of the functions of the police to report those youths showing by their .actions a tendency toward crime, so that they nmight be aided by social service agencies The idea stlll holds good that an ounce of prevention is worth a pound of cure, suggested { ,\'ufnerouu organizations for boys | exist in every city.

At present they don't. There are boys in | every city whose main occupation is | to hang around in gangs and stimu- late each other into mischief. We have seen plenty of this right in New Britain. The other day several youths | even went so far as to steal money from the collection hoxes in several churches, There is & good deal more about “preventing crime” than by taking action against criminals have after they become criminals, the Social agencies and communities have of preventing crime® by preventing the development of criminal tenden- cies in the young.
