...The common drunk has the same pride...
...A "bad man" officially designated as "cuckoo" has a basis for defense in his trial for murder, later on...
...Never weather bad enough to prevent it...
...Bryan's famous pronuncia-mento...

...In a speech before the permanent child welfare committee of the League of Nations, he said that something ought to be done to spare the youth of the world such tortures...
...A very politic policy...
...No taxi...
...Living, half-dead, in a cripple's wheel chair seems a terrible fate, to be happy thus seems impossible, so many the deprivations, so great the dependency— unless one has what Ray Griffin had...
...Among the Republicans feeling a call to the governorship is one Seth Wells...
...But hasn't France both the justification and the precedent...
...Naturally enough, many editors in Kansas, not being accustomed to a Colossus in immaculate vestment, with his silent mouth open like a deep, wide river, consider that it would be neater politics to extol Seth's cowhide boots or hickory shirt than to exploit his soul attuned to the rhythmic cadences...
...The Nicaragua government is Mr...
...Every morning, some citizen called at Justice Griffin's house and wheeled him to his court room, in his cripple's chair...
...1 first policy which keeps the U. S. out of League of Nations and World Court and which raises high tariff walls against the goods of all other countries...
...Never everybody too busy...
...Kellogg's marines, whether or not the latter have wives back in the United States...
...The world has been given a great, a burning thought, by California's executive...
...Her tariff discrimination results in her people being able to buy German and British goods at lower cost than U. S. goods...
...but, still, said policy may be an improvement upon both Constitution and Congress...
...Young greets the American Federation of Labor, in annual convention at Los Angeles, with: "The right of the dollar mark shall not transgress upon human rights...
...JOHN B. HAMMOND, "legislative representative"—which may be a new, polite term for boss lobbyist—of National Civic League, announces that his influential organization will move on Congress for new "teeth" for the Volstead act...
...Just a wheel chair propelled by human sympathy and love...
...Besides the agricultural atmosphere of his name, Mr...
...Always, some volunteer on hand to give the cripple a lift and make him happy in feeling that he was of great use, even though not as other men...
...Probably not one of the readers of this paper ever heard of Justice Griffin...

...For instance: Paris, benzine...
...That is, said maidens are marrying Mr...
...It was an exceedingly large contract and the "criminally minded" were brought in in great squads...
...The latter is what we mean, and practice...
...And droves of "bad men" have been leaving Chicago, to the delight and comfort of Chief Hughes...
...He wasn't imprisoned or hanged but was sent, free, into the world, marked so that all men would know him...
...LIGHT FOR GLASS SENATOR GLASS' attack upon President Coolidge's State Department policy, in vetoing or approving private bank loans to foreign governments, is uncalled for and, perhaps, due to the senator's lack of understanding...
...WHERE IT HURTS SOCIOLOGISTS, criminologists and municipal authorities, generally, should be interested in Chicago's latest effort to reduce her crime record —"the cuckoo test...
...But— For 16 years, Justice Griffin administered justice in his community and came to be beloved, because of his exact justice and his Christian regard for human temptations and weaknesses, in his execution of the laws—which is a pretty fine story in itself...
...The Nicaragua government will, probably, comply with the request of Mr...
...hot-dog, here, Chinese laundry there, oil well, candle or soap factory, elsewhere...
...That's looking after No...
...The commission hasn't yet got to study American city odors...

...NOSE WORK PARIS' odor commission, appointed to locale stenches and determine their effect upon the health of municipal districts, is informed that nearly all large cities have their own peculiar general aroma...
...Leningrad, old leather...
...However, Chicago may be able to clean herself, somewhat, whatever other communities got of her sweepings...
...He has no use for the so-called educational films, believing tnem no substitute for the teacher and what the Danes call "the living word...
...But, the policy of holding on suspicion or putting through "the Third Degree" was not followed...
...But, he will not stand for being officially declared "looney...
...KELLOGG is having such a distressed time in running Nicaragua...
...Isn't it a pretty grod little story, among the 'great mass of miscellaneous news stories...
...He said that the laughs heard in the movie palaces are of a nervous, hysterical character, that the flickering films bring on drowsiness, and that the patrons need longer intermissions in order to recover from their optical and emotional fatigue...
...but, in most American cities, the mixture defies identification of any peculiar or particular characteristics...
...There is another...
...1 first...
...and, often, several on hand to do it...
...The worthy governor was cheered to an extent only approached by the Democratic reception accorded Mr...
...Vukich was killed as you would slaughter a hog," reports Judge Wood...
...Such dentistry will not go in a free America and it makes little difference whether such unwarranted outrage of American homes is for seizure of illicit liquor, or illicit pictures, clothing, doughnuts, or anything else...
...A fortnight or so ago, Police Chief Michael Hughes ordered his men to round up all the gunmen, thugs and suspects of Chicago...
...POOR DENTISTRY ATTY...

...London, coal...
...Of course, the Boston bean and Los Angeles sweat odors are definite enough...
...Venice, canal water...
...AGRICULTURAL POLITICS KANSAS politics is already warming up in great shape...
...Much of his body was dead, but his mind and heart were big and won him the respect and affection of everybody, something which the most able-bodied man often misses...
...Wells stands before the people of Kansas like a quiet Colossus, robed in the immaculate vestment of probity and purity of purpose...
...The U. S. of America...
...Verily, the United States is not in good position to justify its complaining much against international discrimination...

...Of course, there may be a reaction against justice in this Chicago experiment...
...Kellogg...
...DIPLOMACY'S GREAT TRIALS MR...
...He fought, cursed, wept, and plead, whereas he had only laughed at three indictments for murder...
...Kellogg's...
...Let us talk No...
...According to sacred history, the first great criminal, after his father, Cain, the fratricide, received the severest of punishments...
...A very plain necessity...
...The Chicago "bad man" has a certain pride in his "badness...

...Justice Griffin, a bachelor, lived- with his mother and passed most of his existence in a cripple's chair...
...It has been quite easy to shoot or bomb the disorderly conduct out of Liberals posing as rebels against Wall Street, or the ordinary, bush variety of bandit...

...One of said "teeth" will be repeal of that part of federal law barring prohibition agents from arrests and seizures in dwellings, without a warrant...
...The multitude already cursing enforcement methods is augmented by such oppression, such violation of both natural and Constitutional rights...

...The men with police records and those evidently "criminally hardened" were sent to a lunacy commission for examination...
...It may be true, as the senator charges, that there is no word of Constitution or of Act of Congress for it...

...It would be putting in a rotten tooth to spread decay throughout both of enforcement's jaws...
...A very recent and striking demonstration of this is the case of Nicaragua, and there are other instances...
...Every evening, some other citizen called at his office and wheeled him home...
...Like a deep wide river, his thoughs flow without noise or babbling, while his soul is attuned to the rhythmic cadences of eternal justice and truth...
