Giving a lady driver plenty of road way is always polite and often pru dent. Some employees might work fast er if they were not too modest to ' show off. Most folks seem to enjoy their crime news more when there is a preacher mixed up in it. A New Yorker was found living in a sewer. Probably a playwright searching for ataniosphere. General Johnson seems to have the quaint idea that critics can b? silenc ed by calling them names. A suitor for the hand of a movie actress should never despair. His turn will probably come sooner or later. < As we understand it, this "truth in advertising" movement is designed to confine fiction to the news columns. A fqmimist orator declares that working girls should receive men's wages. Some attain this goal by get* ting married. I ORGANIZED CRIME From investigation by the Nation* al Crime Commission, it has been dis closed that a highly organized system of "fences", as receivers and dispos ers of stolen goods are called, handlo more than $600,000,000 worth of loot each year Newton D. Baker, former Secretary of Wa*, who is chainmian of the Com mission, declares that the lone burg lar is now a rarity, and that well or ganized gangs are plying their thiev ing trade along effieient lines. In order to do this they must have definite outlets for the property stol en. If these could fbe eliminated, Mr. Baker believes that the total thefts would be largely reduced. While po lice and other officer! oi th? la* ard aware of this condition, and generally do what they can to break up these "fences", there is need for greatet co operation on the part of the pufclie in keeping a lookout for platens of this character and promptly reporting them to the authorities. losses suffered by the public from thefts, burglary and robbery almost equal the destruction by fire. If these losses are to Ibe lessened there must !je increased vigilance on the part of all citizens and a greater determinat ion to aid in putting criminal gangu out of business.

A story to that effect is told, however, and for all we know it^may be true. - It is said that in the early days of Claremore, Will's home town in Okla homa, that flourishing village was five miles from a railroad. Will and ihis brothers built a branch railroad to connect Claretnore with the main line, also got up some nifty letterheads, on which the names of the brothers wero listed as high officials of the road. They also had soane good-looking courtesy passes printed, which they freely exchanged with officials of oth er railroads. By this means they were enabled to do quite a bit of trav. eling without transportation expense. When one inquisitive railroad pres ident took it upon himself to investi gate the status ,of the Rogers' line, and found that it was only five miles Jong, he wrote to protest that it was not fair to exchange passes with such an insignificant road. j Will Rogers replied by admitting that the Rogers line was :?ot very long in length, but that it was "as wide as anybody's jui railroad. UNRE3TRICTED MUNITIONS SALES The international effort to put en end to the indiscriminate sale of arms and munitions holds forth about the best promise to today against such conflicts as that now raging in South America. There is not the slightest doubt that munition makers have been re sponsible for a good many difficul ties in the world's history, and cer tainly their activities tend to extend conflicts when they arise. Therefore, one of the effective means of dis couraging outbreaks of this nature is to discourage the sale of arms. So long as such salea are easy and profits ae large, as they are in times of war, so long will the influence ef many munition makers be thrown on the side of war. Indeed, it undoubt edly is true that much of the unrest in Europe today is due to agaitation by those interests having instruments of war foi sale. As President Roosevelt himself points uot, the uncontrolled manufac ture of munitions and the traffic therein, "has become a serious source of international discord and strife." Such a stuation the nations of the world should co-operate in eding. BILLION DOLLARS? MILLION JOBS -It is estimated that there la in this country $1,000^00,000 of idle capital I which would nomally be used in the | mortgage market for residential building. If, ae is hoped, present efforts loss en these funda and bring building back near normal, close to a million men will find good jobs. THey will have regular incomes, after years in which most of them have been finding the going extremely hard. They will have money to spend for necessities and luxuries ? and that money will go through a thousand and one indus tries, buying materials and supplies and services, paying taxes and interest, creating more jobs and building up [payrolls for all types of workers. That is what construction revival will do for the country generally. In its individual application, so far as the property- owner is concerned, it will likewise do this. Boom building! costs. They havo 1>een rising slowly,) but steadily, since the low reached, last summer. They are still far be low normal ? as a (matter of fact, costs of most materials used in building have lagged behind the general com modity price advance. That means that the millions of cithsens who have money with which to b\illd and repair now ? before this belated boom starts ? can still got a whole lot more than a dollar's worth for every dollar Rpent. And that condition isnt't go-] ing to last much longer, unless all pre sent signs point the ^ wrong way.
