[Roy Gardner and Crime Careers The Star hopes that all the young men in this state who have felt any inclina- to take up crime as a profession or os a side-line have read the Roy Gardner Peal stories thru. Roy Gardner, in addition to being a refreshingly human sort of bandit—one pos- eessing certain qualities we all were forced to admire—was a master of his trade. a train robber he was one of the most skillful. _ And yet—note this, young man—he FAILED.

There is no such thing as) absolute freedom. Apart wholly from the limitations imposed by society, there are limitations im poned by nature, Phywically, there are certain things @ man cannot do, and many things he cannot do without suffer ing heavy penalties. In a community where there were no limitations established by law and enforced by the power of the community, you would be free onty so long you were stronger than all other individuals, or than any combination of other tndividuais. Law is the safeguard of freedom The exercise of freedom, unre strained by law, would endanger the safety of the community. Take freedom of apeech, for ex ample. The constitution guarantees freedom of speech, but freedom of speech would be impossible if there were no limitations upon tts exer clee, If a man were free to amuse himaelf by shouting “Fire” in a crowded auditorium, he could cause @ panic in whieh hundreds of lives might be lost. If a man were free to vent his spite by publicly slan. dering his neighbors he could do irreparable injury to them from which they would have no means of protection except by allencing him thru threat or violence. If a man were free to aAvocate nmwnnnt nation, armed attack upon property, | courts, government, there would be! an end of all seourtty, And free dom without security is not free | dom at all.
