UUOR LEADER TURNS ATTACK ON DEMOCRATS Gompers to Denounce DavisBryan Ticket—Charge Workers Forsaken. Bu United Pre* , ATLANTIC CITY, N. J.. Aug. 6. Wrath of labor today turned on the Democrats. Samuel Gompers, chief of the American Federation of Labor, composed a strong denunciation of the Davis-Bryan ticket and the Democratic platform, charging directly that the Democrats have "turned their back on the wori?brs." It will be forwarded as an answer to William B. Wilson of the Democratic national campaign committee, whose plea for postponement of action indorsing La Follette was scorned by the Gompers executive committee. Platform Scored Gompers will set forth the reasons why labor turned from its former political friends, the Democrats, to align itself in a non-partisan way with the independent La Follette ticket. He will say. the United Press is informed, that he first decided to break away when the Democratic platform was announced —a platform ‘‘which pledges the party to regulate hours and conditions of all labor., a proposal against which the federation has struggled throughout its whole history. It is silent upon the court injunction issue and plays into the hands of enemies of on the issue of the railroad labor. Selection of John W. Da\Jg_ whose law firm big ,Wall Street bankers, including J. P. Morgan and Company, only cemented the break, Gompers will tell Wilson. At the time when the Democratic party returns to the principles for which labor has fought, then and not until then, will labor return to its support, he will say. Aside from this political question, anew charge was taken up by the council when it resumed session today. Librarians filed a report maintaining public libraries throughout the country are dominated by capitalistic influences who keep labor literature from their shelves. Library Control The charge is especially directed against the Carnegie Foundation libraries, which are sAid to be controlled "not by the municipalities to which they have beer, given, but byboards of trustees who are in no sense responsible to the people." "There is rapidly coming into being a sy-stem which only books approved in a certain manner may be placed on foundation library shelves and that amounts to censorship and is so intended," the report says. Mathew Well, acting chairman for Gompers, declared the federation would investigate the charges fully.

INSTINCT OF CHILD MUST BE TRAINED Care in Early Life Molds Future Habits, Mrs. Stubbs Says, Discussing Franks Case.

Note—This Is the first of two articles by Mrs. Martha J. Stubbs. Indianapolis student of psychology who spent several days attendWu- the trial of Nathan Leopold and Richard Loeb in Chicago. By MARTHA J. STUBBS In every State in the Union, and in almost every town that affords a community paper, the fate of Nathan Leopold and Richard Loeb, Chicago's youthful slayers, is being discussed. Judges from other States, who have been accorded the courtesy of sitting in at the famous trial have ventured an opinion and handed it out through the press. The Chicago Criminal Court is the recipient of dozens of letters, some threatening, some charitable in character, but all tending to show that the public Is thoroughly aroused at the perpetration of a heartless crime, and are anxious to relieve Judge John R. Caverly of his burden of decision by handing out the sentence before "His Honor” is ready. All this is exciting and interesting, but the things which should awaken people to a sense of duty Is the child life, the extravagances of youth, the age of reason, wrapped about the pitiful affair. Judge Caverly will deal wisely and conscientiously with the case and will Impose judgment according to the ruling of his own broadmindedness, and we. as a people should be satisfied with his decision, as he'has entered into the case religiously, and legally unbiased and asks only to hear all the facts and mitigating circumstances,

The thing that should strike home to parents is "What about your own child?"

Is he throwing brickbats through the grocery window nearby, or trying the lock on the oil station? That is of consequence. Not only Loeb and Leopold steal, but nine out of every ten boys, during the age of adolescence, steal, or are tempted to do it, and especially so. If there is no restraining hand. The crime age Is dropping like mercury and reaches Its zenith during the “teen age in boys." Is He Truthful? Is your boy truthful? Can you always depend upon what he tells you? Were you awake when he came in last night? Had he attended church, some social function, or a friendly game at the poolroom?

lie. It Is not only Loeb and Leopold who will lie and steal, and who have been advertised through columns of print, but most boys do it. Instinct causes them to steal and lie. Instinct was handed them as a heritage from their forbears. Providence originally proved it, that the human family might know how to lay hold of life and live and grow I and it’s Just as much a part of man | and Just as necessary a part as the j circulatory system which we can see. Man has thwarted the plans of supremacy. Generations have desecrated instincts and humanity toys with overdone instincts or habits of dissipation and resultant hereditary emotional or neurotic conditions, from which chOdren suffer and from which there Is little escape. Call It “dementia praecox," "emotional Insanity,” "defective affectivlty," "diseased mind." “mental sickness," ‘disturbed emotions.” "hidden deviltry," "unbalanced cerebellum," "affected basal ganglia," or what not, many names might be suited to many conditions that actually exist In the lives of youth, yet the child is helpless while humanity looks on and strives In vain to mete out punishment rather than seek to find a restorative to normalcy If such a tiling could be done, without digging up the bleached bones of those who sleep. Should Train Instincts Instincts are implanted Into the human life for the sake of giving rise to habits. Habits make characters and characters make lives. Unwisely or carelessly trained instincts in children grow Into bad habits in youth and manhood. Instincts belong only to childhood and youth, and after habits are formed, instincts, as such, fade away. The Instinct of ownership, that great desire of possession, which as serts Itself In childhood and often obsesses the soul of man, sometimes robs the world of Its beauty and home of its sanctity, causes boys to steal. It may be a pencil, or a pocketknlfe, the change from mother’s purse, or the tennis racquet left carelessly on a bench, but the Instinct is Just the same, and the desire to do it, overpowering, and the boy steals. Most parents threaten their children or discipline them largely through deterrent methods, and the boy lies to protect himself from punishment, or to relieve himself of embarrassment, this protection being the balancing portion which Is dis played in some manner In every phase of life. Imagination, which asserts Itself dominantly from the third to the seventh years, and Is the instinct that inspires the child to be dramatic, or to be a writer of ability, in the same channel, If wrongly di-,-rectod, makes him lie. Jims one can see how the dramatic Imaginative nature of Richard Loeb, Improperly backed up by defective emotions, might tend toward lies or crime or both. Richard Loeb's mother, a shrewd and capable woman, entrusted her son Into the hands of a governess, eccentric and unacquainted with the psychology of child life. Under her reign over him, Richard sought and found protection in lies. She cultivated the tendency, possibly through Ignorance, and possibly through means of getting by, aqd proving her value aB a good governness to a mother who was entrusting her most precious charge to the car© of another. The nurse had no thought of the child’s future to live In favor with the family one week at a time was her purpose and her Job. This example should be cited by all mothers as being very sure that the nurse Is a person fit to care for the child, If It is absolutely necessary that they have one.

MISSING CARRIER. SIGHTED SUNDAY, FRIENDS REPORT Doris Estle Reprimanded Before Disappearance, / Sister-in-Law Says', Mystery surrounding the disappearance of Doris Estlq, 10, of 1239 Leonard St., Indianapolis Times carrier, last Friday, moved nearer to solution today when small friends of the boy reported to his sister, Mrs. Merle Butler, 1450 N. Mount St., that they had seen him at Riverside Park late Sunday evening. A checkup on his Times route, which he carried, also disclosed that he had called on Mrs. Mabel Anderson, 747 S. Noble St., Saturday morning to collect. With these two new facts, police today believed that the lad was still in Indianapolis. Mrs. Harry Estle, 1239 Leonard St., the lad's sister-in-law, believes the boy is on an adventure tour, declaring he was a reader of ‘‘wild west” stories and a fan at Western movies. She said the lad was given a "good licking" by his brothel Wednesday- evening for being careless with his paper route. Brooding over the reprimand, she said, might have caused him to run away.
