Law Faces New Tussle With Crime Wave of Kidnaping Raises Issue Regarding Paying of Ransom.. BY GRETTA PALMER YORK. Aug. 4 —Kidnapers are the racketeers of emotion Where the gunman makes his money from the victim's normal tendency to quail at the point of a gun, where th bootlegger cashes in on the human desire to have a drink, the kidnaper takes advantage of the family affections of those who are rich enough to seem worth his while. And there is very little that they can do about It as individuals, ex-
cept to meet the ransom demands of the kidnapers and keep faith with them until the victim is returned. There Is very little they can do as individuals, because they are acting too late. By the time that their son or daughter has been taken away they are in no strategic, poposition to argue

with the criminals. Their natural Impulse is to pay. This tendency the law soon will attempt to curb, we hear. For the family to bargaip with kidnapers, without the co-operation of the police, will, perhaps, lie made a jail offense. But the question of the effectiveness of such a measure is very strong. Flouting of Law Certain What father is going to be deterred by the fear of a jxissible jail sentence when his child's welfare and even life may be at stake? If our respectable citizens are willing to turn a cold shoulder to the police when it is a men* matter of satisfying their thirst, how much more apt they would be to try to hoodwink them in a matter as vital as this? There Is a grave possibility. If such a law goes through, that we shall have cases of kidnaping which never reach the cars of the police at all. and another curious entente between the upper classes and the underworld may be set up. just as the years of prohibition seemed to be bringing an end to the public condonation of lawbreaking. Equal Arming a Way Out Has society no recourse but to arm itself with the same weapons which the underworld has chosen? It is a grim possibility—but far less grisly than that of having one member of a prominent family after another terrorized and bought back from the criminals, while the prestige of the law necessarily wanes and the kidnaper becomes bolder at every coup When armored trucks first appeared on oiu - city streets, with their guards and arsenals, we •,huddered to think that such drastic protection might be needed for moving money about ‘‘in times of peace.'’ But the armored trucks have become a coinmon-place today, and money which is moved in this manner is secure from the most foolhardy criminal. The ‘ peace.'’ it seems, was largely illusory There is warfare between society and the gangsters—and if we leave all the drastic weapons in their hands, we can hardly export to win.

The answer* in thl* column arc not based on mm entinnal idcac of h : i, riiht and wronr. but on sound nsvrholoriral truth*. What 1* vour problem? Write Tour letter now! Dear Jane Jordan —All my life I have believed in chastity. lam not bragging because I believe that right and wrong is all in your viewpoint. I have been going with a young man for eighteen months. He is ideal in every way. We both are in a position where we can not marry because of large family responsibilities. He wants me terribly. Such a feeling has been with him a long time, but he has restrained because it went against my convictions. I hesitate in a decision that I never had any doubts about before. I don’t want to hurt him. He respects my ideas and is very gentle and kind to me. I am not afraid that he will ruin my life. He is much too fine for that. I don't think I am a plaster saint, and if I should give in, my only regret will be that I have last part of the reverence hi has for me. Perhaps something you can say will help me to decide. MADAME X. Answer —Judge Ben Lindsay, who is the most ardent defender of youth we have, says that it is very dangerous for any person to defy his traditional upbringing. It results in serious psychological conflicts which frequently get out of control. Every person has an unconscious
conscience which has been built upon the things he learned in his youth Tot h 1 s buriend conscience. Sigmund Freud has given the name of super-ego. Apparently this superego sits in judgment Upon both the conscious acts and unconscious desires of the indii idual. When a person
'"tvJr
Jane Jordan
violates the standards of the superego. even with his own full conscious approval, the unconscious conscience protests. Secret guilt feelings arise which frequently result in abnormal behavior. Self-appointed martyrs, for example. who succeed in making every one about them so thoroughly miserable, are thought by psychoanalysts to be atoning either for some conscious act or some buried desire which the stern super-ego condemns. They seek to silence its secret nagging by the most painful self-abasement. Reformers, too. who are not satisfied with cleaning up their own conduct, but who insist upon forcing their moral absolutes down the throat of the whole unwilling world, are thought to be fighting down a secret sense of guilt. ••But,' I hear you say, “some people violate the conventions and get by with it." Yes. but only when they have failed to build such a rock-ribbed super-ego. or when they have been liberated from its attacks by a thorough psychological understanding of themselves. You will see from this that there is a sound psychological foundrtion for the trite admonition. “Let your conscience be your guide."

Dear Jane Jordan—l lived intimately with a man I expected to marry. He grew tired very' soon and said he dare not marry a woman so easily influenced, as our children might be equally weak. It is true that a woman feels soiled, dishonored, unfit for life afterward. I beg of you do not gloss over the shameful black side. I am unfit to marry into a decent home, no hopes, nothingTHE IDIOT. Answer—This letter illustrates the point I have tried to make. This girl violated her own conscience and lost the game as she was bound to do. H?r secret self by no means would permit her to make a success of something she inwardly condemned. The misery of her self-abasement is a pitiful thing, yet she evidently takes a morbid pleasure in selfflagellation. She is in serious danger of slipping into a negative attitude and ruining the rest of her life. Probably she can not be persuaded to take romfort in the thought that one misstep has no power to make a good girl wholly bad. If she would muster up her courage and live the rest of her life according to the dictates of her own conscience and remain true to her own standards, the reconstruction of her happiness is not only possible, but probable. She isn’t the only girl to whom this thing has happened. Those who bucked up and started over often have married and lived happily ever after. a a a Dear Jane Jordan—l have been married nine years and have one child. Although my husband says he loves me more each day. I have found out he has been seeing another woman. I did not nag him about this, as I was to blame partly. I often am too tired for love-making. We had a heart-to-heart. talk in which he promised not to see th4s woman again. Since then I have tried tv> grant his every wish even if it did not appeal to me. I ldve my husband very much, but don't you think that if he loved me as much as he says that he would not have turned to some other woman? MRS. BROKENHEART.

Middle Age Bars Woman Job Hunter Forty and Beyond Means Work Quest Nearly Hopeless. Thl* 1* the la*' of a series of stories on Indianapolis acmen seeking employment. By ELIZABETH CARR Times Staff Writer “Life begins at 40, ’ according to Walter Pitkin, the novelist, but life at 40 holds little illusion for the jobless. They've little to offer and are grateful for what they get. Hope springs eternal, in spite of the odds, for morning finds them in line—rather grim, quite solemn, but hopeful. But the drama of closed doors has left its mark. A mother and her daughter are in line today—they must have come early, for they are at the head of the crowd. Maybe that will bring them luck, for they look as if they need it. In appearance they are drab and coarse, undoubtedly unaccustomed to luxuries of life, but surely entitled to the necessities. Faces Mask Feelings The mother is tired and worn Her countenance is masklike—she knows better than to wear her feeligs on her sleeves. They stand, both of them, making no attempt to talk to their neighbors. A picture of utter dejection. * They were greeted by a friend, who asks breathhlessly: ‘ Have they taken on any yet? I went over to that other factory that Henry told me about—they took seven. Mabel got in and Jennie, of course. Mabel used to work th?re and I guess they remembered her. They called her in by name. How's Jim? Hurt bad?" “Oh, he’ll be all right.” This from the mother. "He doesn't care if he misses work —ain't that the way? I get awful mad at him, even if he is my own boy. Those who have jobs take them for granted. They wouldn't if they know how hard they were to get." “If I only could get part-time work—just for a few dollars a week —it sure would help out plenty. You know, my husband lost liis job last week—the factory where lie was working closed down. Pride Vanishes “Remember when we was too proud to take just any kind o’ work? I've sure done plenty of different kinds since then. I guess I ain't so proud—it don't pay. Not when you've got a family and grandchildren. Ever seen Marty? Looks jest like his paw, doesn’t he, Min?” Min, the daughter, nods assent. Some just stand—without pretense of success, shorn of hope, and dejected. Do some of these jobless women deserve work? We have seen hundreds, willing and anxious to work long and hard for a few cents an hour, a few are chosen, but there are hundreds left. Another Hopeless Day Discordant, "That’s all for today” and "No more help needed today” send the women into the streets looking for any kind of work. Unfavorable conditions have subjected women to terms of long unemployment. Existing conditions of the economic machine have been forcing down the standards in the scale of social and industrial values. And for what result? "Casual employment"—application for any job, no matter how far down in the scale of unskilled labor. Why should women do men’s work; why should women take on any kind of a job, and for any price? The flapper would say, “Have you ever been hungry?" THE END MISS STEWART TO BE HONOR GUEST Mrs. C. D.

Knit Boucle Suits Made by Machines Display Fine Details Like Hand Work Strauss Shows Marinette Line for Autumn 'With Garments in Some of the Newest Colors. BY HELEN LINDSAY TT HE ingenuity of American machinery is much in evidence in the new fall Marinette boucle suits just received at Strauss' Not only do the suits have the individuality of hand-knit garments, but also the detail i and perfect tailoring of fabrics. The models shown at Strauss' are exclusive with this store In Indianapolis, since it is the policy of the Marinette manufacturers to sell certain styles to only one store in a city. The new fall knits have the appearance of tweeds in many instances. They are made in three-piece as well as two-piece suits. Swagger coats in three-quarter length are shown, with finger-tip length coats in the more
severely tailored models. Shoulders, which have become modified in all late summer and fall clothing, are particularly so in knitted garments. One knit suit in the tweed design has diagonally striped sweater, fastened with metal clasps which come through button holes, much like the ones used on galoshes and raincoats. With it is a swagger coat of plain colored knit made with large sleeves, and a diagonally striped scarf A suit, in the new shade of friar brown which is to be outstanding in fall sports wear. Is made with two sweaters, one with a crew neck and short sleeves, in a fancy knit, and the other a very tailored buttoned sweater. a a a Suit of Cruise Blue Shown IN the new fall sil k boucle suits, there is one in the Marinette collection of cruise blue, which is a
shade slightly brighter than navy, with a drop stitch pattern in the sweater. The sleeves are full at the shoulders, graduating into tightness from the elbows to the wrists. Silver and blue ball buttons and a round silver and blue buckle are the only trimming. The belt on this suit, as m many others, is a double rope design of the same knit as the suit. Large brown wooden buttons and buckles have been used to trim another suit, in a tweed silk boucle. The new combination of paysanne blue, which has been popular this summer, with cruise blue is shown in this. It has a skirt with an unusual short belt effect In front, and a finger-tip length coat. With it is shown a youthful sweater of soft Angora wool in paysanne blue. a a a a a a Dundee Green a New Fall Colo" AN orange, green and white striped sweater is shown with a clavly knit suit of Dundee green, also one of the new fall colors The sweater has short puffed sleeves. The coat is plain at the neck, which is high, and has only one large button at the top. The buckle on the belt is a large round one, in orange and green. Knitted berets are shown with some of the outfits, in matching knit, and knitted button coverings have been used on several. a a a a a a Some Men Are Cosmetic Patrons ALTHOUGH men do not as a rule use cold creams, they arc much interested in various toilet preparations which appear in the local j stores. According to the toilet goods department at L S Avres A- Cos. j many Indianapolis men buy such preparations One Indianapolis n.an i uses practically all of the preparations that are made by Dorothv Gray; others use rcos netic which are advocated for oily skins, and many men are constant i sers of brilliantine. Men, however, sometimes forget the names of the various toilet preparations. Recently a man asked at the Ayres toilet goods department for “Affection" powder. Upon investigation it was found that he meant "Caress," which’is one of the Bourjois preparations. Baa a a a Synthetic Sun Tan Possible New productions are being seen in toilet goods for late summer and fall use. If you have not been able to acquire the proper beach tan this summer. Helena Rubenstein has solved the problem with a gypsy tan cream which achieves it. For the bare-legged girl, Elizabeth Arden has perfected Velva Beauty Film, a cream wmch can be applied to the legs* and has the appearance of sheer sun-tan hose. Arden has also made Velva hath mits to be J used as wash cloths. They are of toweling, filled with oatmeal, and come j in boxes of six packages, three in each package, or in individual packages.
