clared N. A. Boyd, public safety commissioner of Binghamton, N. Y. “Lack of education and improper training during the years of youth are the things which people our Jails.” commented Chief J. M. Broughton of Portsmouth. Va. “Our criminals come from homes where they were surrounded always by ignorance,” he said. 11. G. Ferguson of Denver placed women In the list. “Wine, women and song” make criminals, he said. “Women are the most to blame.” Those who blamed prohibition were inclined to specify that lack or proper enforcement or inability to enforce it properly was the element which made it a cause of crime. "Prohibition causes crime because it fails to prohibit,” Said Chief W. A. Renkin of Denver's detective department. “The bootleg sets them crazy where the other didn’t.” Unmarried Men More Numerous , Bulletin States There arc more single men in Indianapolis than there are single women, according to a bulletin released today from Washington by the Department of Commerce.

WATSON AIDS IN CLEARING SENATE DECK Indiana Member, at Opportune Time, Steps In. PROGRAM FIXED Tariff Bill Debate to Continue Ahead of Bonus. Special to Indiana Daily Times and Philadelphia Public Ledger. BY ROBERT BARRY. WASHINGTON, June 21.—Under personal leadership of the President the Administration party in Congress was able to set Its signals and clear the way for action on its legislative program. Agreement was obtained to terminate the snarl Into which three paramount Republican measures had drifted. A skillful parliamentary move by Senator Watson of Indiana robbed the Senate Democrats of a talking point for political purposes. The situation as oharified by the days development follows: The Senate will resume consideration of the tariff bill. On its passage the Roldiers’ bonus measure will be taken up and held before the upper House until a vote shall have been taken. The ship subsidy bill, even though approved by the House in the meantime, will be held In committee until after passage of the bonus. TO DEFER ACTION ON SHIPPING BILL. House Republicans will be permitted to defer action on the shipping bill until the conclusion of their reported series of three-day recesseß over a period of two or three weeks. President Harding has agred to the Campbell proposal to afford his party in Congress an opportunity of revisiting their constituencies to make clear the purposes and necessities of the legislation. There will be no adjournment of Congress until both the bonus ami subsidy bills have been passed. The Senate lineup indicate'! more than enough votes to enact the soldiers' bonus bill over a presidential Teto, yet the story persisted that Mr. Harding had let it become known he would not wield the ax of disapproval. At the White House it whs stated simply the President's letter to Chairman Fordney “still was on file.” In that letter he insisted such a bill should carry its own method of financing the bonus. After the Senate had voted, 51 to 22, to table a motion by Senator Walsh, Democrat, Massachusetts, to sidetrack the tariff bill for the bonus, other minority Senators launched such a furious attack on Administration policy as to cause Senator Watson to bring in a proposal calculated to silence them, or at least to rob their political speeches of real effectiveness. The Indiana Senator offered, and the Senate adopted, a motion providing specifically for n '‘special" order making the bonus bill unfinished business Immediately after passage of the tariff measure, without shutting out the right of any Senator to move In the meantime to supplant the turiff. EFFECT OF THE WATSON STRATEGY. The effect of the Watson strategy was to enable Republican leaders to say that if the Democrats loved the bonus so much they could expedite its consideration and passage by refraining from speeches delaying passage of the tariff.

I DOG HILL PARAGRAFS

: i Atlas Peck was seen sitting on his front porch today making a terrible face about something while reading a paper, and it developed that he was reading about the quinine industry. ... A petition is being circulated to raise money with which to build anew Jail in the Calf Ribs neighborhood. This is a worthy cause, and we should all contribute out share, ns anybody is liable to get in Jail at any time. Sile Klldew is learning to sing in the choir, and last Sunday finished only about three lines behind the rest of them. Democratic speech against the tariff or for the bonus would have the effect of delaying Just that much consideration of the soldier’s bill the Senate having gone on record by 52 to 8 with a promise to take up the measure the moment the tariff is out of the way. The outcome of the day's developments on Capitol Hill was a victory for Mr. Harding In his opposition to the proposal by Senator McCumber, Noreh Dakota, to lay aside the tariff for the bonus. The President wished to have 'he Senate complete its tariff task. Senator Jones, Washington, chairman of the Commerce Committee, gave notice he wou’d not report the ship subsidy legislation until the bonus was passed. While House agreement with the nouse plan fi.r a series of “gentlemen’s agreement” recesses was embodied In a letter to Representative Mondell, majority floor leader. On that score Mr. Harding Indulged In compromise, although he did not yield on his poiut of demanding action before an adjustment. From a purely political standpoint, the President has brought his party in Congress to a semblance of orderly procedure, and ended, for the moment at least, the panicky working at cross i*urposcs which was threatening the whole legislation program.—Copyright, 1922, by Public Ledger Company.

DISABLED VETS FIGHT IMPROPER USE OF NAMES Anti-Bonus Statements Are Not True Feelings, Says Editor. Ex-soldiers of the World War who still are suffering from wounds or disability Incident to their service have entered a protest against the use of their names to fight adjusted compensation, national headquarters of the American Legion announced here today upon receipt of information from the Disabled American Veteran's organization. “For the solemn purpose of correcting a rank injustice to the disabled," Robert M. Smyth. Cincinnati. Ohio, national staff representative of the Disabled American Veterans, charges in a letter to the legion that "certain financiers corralled n few disabled soldiers recently, brought them up before President Harding (for which they were probably well paid) and had their picture taken.” This photograph. Smyth alleges, was published broadcast with the statement that “disabled veterans are against a bonus.” Smyth quotes hia organizations magazine to the effect that “the payment of a bonus will not prevent nor delay taking care of the maimed and the crippled veteran and taking care of the war cripples ought not to delay nor prevent paying Just compensation to all ex-service men." The disabled veterans in their last two national meetings have indorsed adjusted com pensation, the publication shows, and urged its immediate enactment into law. Burglars Strip Car in Garage Burglars broke into the garage of William K Marshall, 3030 English avenue, last night and stripped the car of three tires, a set of tools, the motometer and a seat, police were informed.
