A Wtrctanrtac The Daughters Violence Penalty Shows Weakness SNAG A snag hts developed In plans of a Boise, Idaho, couple to be married in all 50 states.

'V One thing about the bat slugging of Roseboro by Marichal we can all be thankful for is that it was an incident between two colored men. Had Marichal been white man, it is probable a riot would have occurred, It would have been charged to racial antagonism.

The patriotic organization's Flag chairman, Mrs. W. Carl Crittenden fired off a letter to the company saying it was deplorable to downgrade our Flag in this fashion. Harry Ross, a Treo executive, admitted the company alao received soma complaints retailers who considered the new girdle In bad taste. Ross said his firm considered the material bunting, not an actual flag, and had gotten the idea from the use of Stars and Stripes by current art faddists known as pop ertlsts.

He has done everything possible to keep his officers from using unnecessary violence.

Jordan offered to raise a fund for paying the fine. He agrees using a bat was not nice, but he says it was a shame to punish him. These attitudes are examples of, why we have, so much lawlessness and disregard for the law-enforcement agencies of our society.

Violence breeds violence unless it is punished quickly. Parents who- excuse their children for disrespect for the rights of others are as guilty as the children. There are not many, as a percentage of population, who show this disrespect But they are growing in numbers.
