THE OUSTING oi Hartman must have been a blow to pome of our “best citizens.’* THE ONLY TIME some places ever get on the map is when they are involved In a robbery. AUTOMOBILE THIEVES are warned that It Is not safe to carry around autographed photographs of themselves. IT IS NOW the car company’s time to file a suit alleging that it is being discriminated against because It has to pave the streets and the Jitneys do not THE GRAND CHIEF of the Brotherhood of Locomotive Engineers says be expects to be pursued by reporters in heaven. All of which indicates he doesn’t think as badly of the reporters as he might. A Desperate Remedy Those citizens of Indianapolis who believe that “might makes right” and those who believe that “necessity knows no law,” will Join with those who approve the spirit embodied in the question, “What’s the Constitution among friends?" in condoning the action of the Republican city committee in removing J. Herbert Hartman and causing the certification of Delbert O. Wilmeth as the Republican candidate for city Judge. This flagrant disregard of the nomination duly made by a primary must be defended on the grounds that it is morally right. There is no defense possible from the legal standpoint In all probabilities the action will not be successfully challenged because such a challenge would be Interpreted as a defense of Hartman, with whose failure to resign no one can sympathize. But the fact remains that Hartman, not Wilmeth, is the Republican nominee for Judge, even though Wilmeth and not Hartman will appear on the ballot Whether, in the rather remote contingency that Wilmeth is elected to office this situation will afTord a lawsuit remains to be seen. The whole city can sympathize with the Republican party officials in their action. It was their only way out of an excruciatingly tight situation and there is no doubt that it was for the public good. Illegal though It may be. It Is with the dangerous qualities of the precedent thus established that we are concerned. If a party organization can remove a bad candidate who has been selected by a primary and substitute a good man in his place on the ticket, by the same power it can remove a good candidate and substitute a bad one. In law, at least, there Is no more justification for the removal of Hartman and the substitution of "Wilmeth than there would be for the removal of Samuel Lewis Shank and the substitution of Mr. Thomas Carr Howe. Are our primaries of no more binding force on the parties that participate In them than this? Must a candidate for office not only assure himself of nomination in the primary, but of the friendliness of the party organization in order that he may rest assured of the privilege of hav.ng his name on the ballot? Os what value or authority is the primary if the candidates selected by It are to be subject to removal at the discretion of the city committee? In the case of Herbert Hartman, the city committee has an excellent argument in support of its action. Will It have such good grounds for action the next time it decides to “swap” candidates without the consent of the primary nominee? In the last five years there has been a steady decrease In the respect exhibited for the laws of this State by members of the Republican party. This disrespect was fostered in the Goodrich administration, exhibited in the county administration and has frequently been seen in the city administi&tion. It gave rise to the facetious but nevertheless typical expression, ■What’s the Constitution among friends?” This spirit of respecting laws and legally established institutions only when it is convenient is becoming more and more of a menace to the citlsens of Indiana every day. It is peculiarly prevalent among Republican afficeholders whose actions give rise to the feeling that they are thoroughly convinced that a Republican can do no wrong. Sooner or later the citizenry of this State will demand that there be a return to law observance on the part of Republicans as well as others. This demand will be answered or the Republicans will be ousted from control of law-making and law-enforcement agencies. The Republican city organization is to be congratulated on getting rid of Hartman, whom no one wanted on the ticket. But at the same time the voters of Indianapolis must be warned that they are condoning an affair which, like Banquo s ghost, will rise to plague them in the political nights to come.

A Teacher's Responsibility Indianapolis has again said farewell to the teacheri until another year. The Importance of the teacher has been pointed out many times, but it cannot be over-emphasized. Next to the parents, the teacher does more to guide the course of a child's life than any one with whom he comes In contact The way in which a teacher, by using poor Judgment, may change the entire life of an individual was strikingly illustrated by a speaker who addressed one of the sectional meetings of the convention. He took for an example a child attending a country school. This is what he said, in substance: “Johnny attended a country school. Like all other country boys, he was required to do some chores before going to school. One morning a calf escaped from the lot and Johnny’s father told him to capture it before he went to school. The calf was elusive and it was just time for school to Take up’ when he finally succeeded in corailing it. “He ran to the house, got his books and ran almost all the way to school. Because he was late the teacher subjected him to the humiliation of standing in a corner. At recess the boys taunted him because he had been punished. Johnny lost his temper and a fight started. The teacher discovered It and told him to get his books and go home and never come back. Johnny, having become disgusted with school anyway, was not slow in obeying. Asa result, he grew up to be illiterate.” This story was used as an example of the manner in which the personal equation enters into school management. It may be an extreme case, but it illustrates very well the responsibility of the teacher. The success with which the great majority of teachers meet their responsibilities, usually out of all proportion to tliefr experience and salaries, is nothing short of remarkable. In fact, all the yards and yards of complimentary things that have been written about the American school teacher.are not in excess of what the subject justifies. Handicapping the Police Another demonstration of the utter futility of expectiug enforcement of the laws against stealing motor vehicles in Marion County while a judge continues to overthrow police efforts was afforded Indianapolis yesterday. Orville Kinneman, arrested on a charge of stealing an auto, confessed and involved as his companion, Gilbert Castle, whom the police had previously arrested on the same kind of a charge and whom they had every reason to believe was in jail awaiting trial. Investigation disclosed that Castle was released, without bonds, from the Jail, In time to have participated in the attempted theft in w hich he was implicated by Kinneman. The release was on the order of Judge James A. Collins, before whom Kinneman and Gilbert may sometime come to trial. The police of Indianapolis are not infrequently subjected to considerable criticism for their failure to protect the citizens against auto thieves. It is only fair to note that in more than one instance, the police are not only called on to cope with the thieves, but also to combat the encouragement that the thieves derive from their ability to escape even the iaoonvenience of answering for previous offenses in which they have b* implicated. Such an administration of the courts breeds nothing except more lawlessness.

Keeping House With the Hoopers

Roger's complaint of a week ago that the house looked dingy and lacked the shiny freshness that marked it when Mrs. Hooper was looking after it, constantly was echoed by his mother when she came into the living room after breakfast to give Helen some inst-uc-tions about cleaning. Heretofore the first of October had always seen the large, comfortable room cosy In Its garb for the winter, with all the faded, dusty reminders of summer removed. But this year nothing had been done as yet to change Its aspect, as the weekly cleaning had been all that Helen and her grandmother had been able to do during the month of September. The summer curtains were still np and the chintz covers had not yet been removed from the chairs or from the big sofa Mrs. Hooper would have liked nothing better than to go right at it herself, and put it at once into its winter setting. But Betty needed too much of her time and attention to permit her to do any real housecleantng for some time yet. However, she did tell Roger to bring down the extra rugs from the attic, where they had been put away during the summer, and to take down the curtains and remove the chintz coverings from the chairs. When the ruga had been placed on the floors and fresh sash curtains and the plain dark valances had been out on the windows an dthe tapestry of the

Just where he is waking up, don’t you remember? Well, as soon ns he dressed himself he ran downstairs and out into the barnyard and there he found the farmer al- ■ ready up aud feeding the chickens. And the first thing he said to Puss was: I Cackle, cackle, my black hen, She's laid an egg outside the pen, 1 She has anew nest somewhere Just now. Perhaps It's up In the big hay mow. “Perhaps it is,” said Puss, and he ran jup the ladder in the barn to the loft which was full of hay. And by and by he came across the black hen's nest, and ;it had eleven white eggs In it, too. So Puss put them In his hat and climbed down as carefully as he could and handed them to the farmer. But you should have heard the black hen cackle She was as mad as mad could be, for she was going to hatch those eggs lnb, pretty little yellow chickens, or, maybe, they would have been little black chicks. | “That’s too bad.” said Puss. “Let's put ; the eggs back And the kind-hearted farmer said all right, so our little kind hearted Puss Junior placed them In the nest again, and > the black hen was so pleased that she j crowed almost like a rooster.

State feasts will be dry. All of which is responsible for the capital’s newest quip.

DAVIS WOULD SCHOOL ALIENS IN CITIZENSHIP Secretary of Labor Wishes Bureau to Make Over Newcomers. SEEKS TITLE CHANGE WASHINGTON, Oct. 22. —Reorganize tlon of the bureau of naturalization in the Department of Labor is one of the pet plans of Secretary Davis. The plan Is now taking practical shape, and pros pects are that a great new forward step soon may be taken to make life different and better for the alien new-omer and the country a gainer by acquiring new cltizens better prepared for their new duties and privileges. At Secretary Davis' request a bill has been introduced in Congress which will change the title of this bureau to the bureau of citizenship. With the change in title the bureau will take on a vastly broadened scope of activity. The old bureau of naturalisation always has been charged with the responsibility of naturalizing foreigners, but it is Secretary Davis' plan to have the new bureau Uve up to Its name. It will be more than a bureau of naturalization; it will be a bureau of citizenship and training for citlzenahlp. It will train our alien ar rivals by Instruction in the public schools It will provide fur them guidance and protection. It will set up machinery to see to their proper distribution ovei the country, so as to avoid the old evils of a congestion of new foreigners in the larger cities. Many of these newcomers for Instance, arrive here with long ex perlence. which they are forced to discard for work in the cities because they have no mean* of reaching the farm* or of ascertaining where their farming experience may be of value. PURPO6E TO MAKE KNOWN INSTITUTIONS. “Among its other duties the new bureau of citizenship will spread knowledge of our American Institutions in such a way as to heighten respect and inspire loyalty to those Institution*,’’ said Secretary Dav;*, in commenting on his plan. “It will begin a national campaign for bettering the physical and moral well--1 elng of our forelgn-bom population. To this end the new bureau will under take to protect the foreigner from fraud and Imposition. It will provide centers of Information where persons of patriotism and character will offer guidance and advice. Where it Is possible these advisers will be themselves of foreign extraction. In order to offer real s.-mpatby aid understanding and so serve to bring the stfll newer aliens into wiolesome contact with the people of their own race. Always the burden of advice will be respect for the Federal Government.” It is Secretary Davis’ aim to utilize to the full the machinery of the new bureau to protect the newest alien arrivals from the evil Influence of “Red” and Communist propaganda. One of the chief agen cles In this purpose will be a thorough system of public school Instruction for aliens. The women will have the benefit of classes at home. The Instruction will be given In places of employment, or at other suitable points, as well as in the public schools. These classes will be arranged for all adults and wage earner* REGISTRY TO AID

IN GUIDANCE. “Each "alien will be required to register,” said Secretary Davis. “This Is not for the purpose of setting up a police system, but In order to keep trace of each individual for his protection and guid ance. Each registrant will be given a certificate of his registration, on payment of a fee not to exceed $lO for adult* and $3 for wage earners who are mlnoi-s All the money from thse fee" will be .xpended in the payment of teach er for su"h foreigners as need school ■ ing. Thus the alien newcomer, as Is roper, pavs for his own imp'ovement and lifts the burden of his care front the shoulders of the Government." Tn addition to these new functions, the new bureau of citizenship, as planned, will encourage States and communities to prepare teachers to teach the Immigrant to speak, read and write the English language, to understand aDd value the privileges of citizenship and practice devotion to (he institutions of our Government. Tn all sneh classes of in structlon the motion picture will be 11b erally used. The States will he asked to adopt legal school terms of at least six months of each year for the benefit of wage earning children and adults. To this end compulsory attendance will be asked for. To complete the instruction, training will be provided in health and sanitation, along with physical culture. REEKS AID IN TRAINING WORK. | The new bureau will seek the aid of a?! religious, civic, educational, community. fraternal and other organization* in th# promotion of this work of tratntng the alien for citizenship.
