That attitude was understandable, for the captain was making desperate effort to save a foundering ship and any interference seemed a gross disloyalty.

But the XRA was nothing more nor less thai the law of the land. To obey its provisions was to be law-abiding to disobey was to be an outlaw. As a matter of fact, numerous concerns, great and small, did disobey. And their disobedience promoted serious discussion of their "right" to disobey. Well, one law is no more binding than another.

Have citizens the right to ignore any law that displeases them? That is the question. When an obscure dry cleaner was punished for disobeying NRA rules, the general public felt sorry for him and thought hii punishment unfair. When great corporations refused to obey and were not punished, the people said: "They are not above the law; they should be forced to obey. It was the story of prohibition repeated. Those who disapproved the law ignored it if they dared.

And they did it with the conviction that they were right and the law wrong. That could happen only in a free country. When the will of the king was the will of God. no man had the right to question the law. The very fact that it existed made it right But under a government by the people, law must be the will of the people.

It can't be anything else. If a law represents the will of, the people, it Is obeyed. If It doesn't represent their will, they don't obey it And It becomes a dead letter or is repealed. That may be wrong. You may argue that law is sacred and should be obeyed, whether approved or disapproved.

Guest.) Who's News Today By Lemuel F. fur Ion. OF OUR READ under a lease arrangement with the Florida Agricultural and Relief Commission. Protests have already been filed by representatives of the established industry contending that the project would give the lessor an unfair advantage. The Texas Weekly, in discussing the protests, says they are soundly based.

It is anxious to see greater development of the paper pulp Industry In the South, but does not consider governmental intervention as the proper way to proceed. The Fernandina plant, the Texas journal says very truly, would not contribute toward recovery and the relief of unemployment "Such a pulp plant would not establish a new market of an extra ton of pulp. It would simply provide a new supply for existing Continuing, the Weekly says: No real good can come of such socialistic projects to have the government embark in manufacturing and other economic activities in competition with well-established private concerns. Such projects have a peculiar attraction for a certain type of mind, but they can not stand the test of sound common sense appraisal. What is needed is to help existing industry to recover, and not to force them to compete with the government.

The proposed expenditure for a paper pulp plant in Florida is in the same class with the plan to make pest office equipment at Reedsville, W. where Mrs. Roosevelt is interested in a social settlement undertaking. Unemployed miners are being established on subsistence homesteads and were to be given part-time employment in a factory that would have meant the closing of other factories in Indianapolis and elsewhere. Congress twice has refused to indorse the Reedsville factory and it is hoped that the plan has been abandoned.

FINGERPRINT ACCURACY. rpHE death cf Dillinger demonstrated once more the virtual infallibility of the Bertillon system of fingerprinting as a means of identification. Wily criminals havs endeavored to foil the authorities by attempted removal of the whorls on the fingers. Acid sometimes is applied or the skin is actually "sandpapered" to remove the incriminating lines. Science THOMAS W.

The sponge grow appeared an article entitled "Taxes in Bedford." The name of LeRoy fLJL 1LBERT SAHM'S laat Fort HbsUsV Wayne avenue manusrrint "WITHOUT A DRIVER'S LICENSE." rpHE public frequently reads, in the items about au- tomobile accidents, that the person responsible for the mishap was arrested on various charges, including failure to have a driver's license.

The average reader, of course, does not inform himself of the disposition made of such cases. Personal interest lacking unless one happens to be acquainted with those involved in accident The same attitude usually applies to cases in which drunken drivers have crashed into innocent victims. Belief is growing, however, that the courts have been too lenient with violators of traffic laws. No penalty the law permits is too severe for the drunken driver a potential murderer careening along the streets and highways. Motor clubs and civic organizations should Interest themselves in the punishment meted out to this worst type of traffic offender.

A small line or a large one, depending on the culprit's means, seldom serves as a deterrent, A nominal jail sentence lacks the severity of punishment which drunken driving deserves. The degree of punishment, of course, should fit the crime. Suspension of the driving license for a year which the driver may ignore is inadequate. If automobile criminals were denied the privilege of driving for five or ten years, perhaps for life, they might be more considerate of others' rights. It is estimated that hundreds of motorists throughout the state have failed to secure the driver's license.

That is inexcusable, since the fee is too small to be classed as a financial hardship. There may be little respect for the provision as it applies to Indiana, since it is but a revenue measure. If able to avoid an accident or c. traffic violation, the average motorist might drive for years without the annual tag, so far as detection is concerned. The penalty should be severe enough for those without the license, however, so that purchase would be deemed a cheap form of insurance.

Hoosiers would have more respect for the law if the driver's license meant more than' a receipt for 50 cents. Any one can get the license by complying with a few perfunctory formalities. If the state undertakes to charge for alleged regulation, it should make some effort to determine the applicant's worthiness and to require more general observation of the statute. Many who comply with its terms' feel that under its provisions they are merely paying another of the excessive taxes levied on the motorist Prohibitive percentages prevail in the gasoline tax, along with other charges assessed against the motorist. The practice harks back to the period when an automobile was a luxury and the popular idea was that a person able to afford one should be "soaked." That reasoning no longer applies.

In return for excessive taxation, the careful motorist at least should be protected against any second offenses of drunken and reckless drivers and those operating without a license. CURBING THE MORBIDLY CURIOUS. rpHE Crown Hill Cemetery Association's action in deciding to close the grounds to visitors preceding and during the burial of John Dillinger is justified, in view of disgraceful scenes which have occurred elsewhere. It would be flattering to assume that morbidly curious crowds would not give way to Moore was signed to this article. My wa not typewritten and this la offend a an excuse investigation reveals that there are only two persons in Bedford by the name of LeRoy Moore.

One is LeRoy G. Moore, residing at 1608 Fifteenth street, and the other is my self, residing at 62S street. The other LeRoy Moore says that he did and the underworld know that no two sets of fingerprints are exactly alike, hence major criminals hope to erase the telltale marks. The facts that Dillinger's acid treatment did not completely remove the whorls and that they had still sufficient clearness to tally with police records mark another triumph for this world-wide system. Only a complete skin grafting operation, scientists declare, can enable criminals to confuse the experts who keep the Bertillon files.

The success of the system emphasizes the value of such records for law-abiding citizens as well as criminals. Only prejudice on the part of some has for a mistake which wis mad In a name. Mr. Sahna writea a beautiful and very distinct hand, and the fault was entirely the reader He writes: "Through my faulty chlrog-raphy, the time-honored name of my friend of many year, the late Harvey B.

The country has been afflicted with a virtual epidemic of alleged amnesia cases since the war. Identification of these persons would have been prompt had records of their fingerprints been available.
