THE IMEL CASE
THE supreme court of Indiana yesterday properly refused to recognize the jurisdiction of the local municipal court . over the.casa of 14-year-old Richard Dale Imel, the boy who killed his step-mother with a shotgun in a fit of pique. - ‘The high court issued a temporary writ prohibiting the local court from assuming jurisdiction in the case, turning it back to juvenile court where we believe it belongs. We have no miawkish sympathy with one who kills, even though he be but a boy.

ordered that the boy be taken to jail. He was so held, in special quarters separate from adult prisoners, until the supreme court writ was issued. Now he is with his father, in the absence of any facilities for handing such cases. There is no provision for adequate care of the psy-chiatric-or “tough” juvenile offender in Marion county. Richard Imel's case is one for the psychiatrists, not the criminal” courts. If our methods of dealing with such offenders were modern and we had somewhere to confine

ON THE WAY ,OUT to Irvington, where the Indianapolis Orphans Home bullding stands, -used to the home of Gen. Abel D. Streight. It was a big southern colonial: affair with a portico of four tall Corinthian columns. When he died; his wife had his body buried in the front yard. y Legend has it that, on the day of the funeral, She said: “I never knew where my - husbaid' was when —he- lived, so I buried him — here: now I know where he is." : Mrs. Streight was an extraordinary woman even without the apocrypal remark attributed to her. For one thing, she, was the only Indianapolis woman to my knowledge who took a fighting part in the Civil war. 4
the South, the regiment was in command of Col. Streight. His wife accompanied the regiment on its long march from Stevenson, Ala. to Nashville, Tenn. She was the only woman with that division numbering 75,000 men. At Nashville a battle was imminent and Col. Streight sent his wife and 5-year-old son to the North. : :

COAL -GOES MODERN
“THAT story from Pittsburgh yesterday, telling of plans for the conversion of vast quantities of coal into gas, gasoline, oil and alcohol, may be one of the biggest pieces of industrial news in America’s history. It involves a revolution in the use of America's greatest natural resource—bituminous coal. This nation has .about half of the world’s known coal supplies—enough to last more than 2500 years. Through a pooling of resources, the world's biggest " coal producer—Pittsburgh Consolidation Coal Co.—and the biggest oil company—Standard of New Jersey, for the | first time are about to carry into commercial production the age-old dream of chemists and engineers. That is distribution and burning of coal.in more simple and efficient forms—either as a gas or as liquids. It means easier transportation, more efficient combustion, much less waste and far greater use of the myriad products that come from coal. It makes coal the source of both gascline and oil—heretofore in the class of “competitive” fuels. That opens to | the mining industry and coal miners a tremendous new field for both business and jobs.

meanwhile our oil reserves are dwindling, making coal a growing potential source for our future needs and ou military security. : ita ~The story from Pittsburgh tells of the construction this year of a big pilot plant to carry out the first of two essentials that long have been sought by the coal researchers. This is conversion of coal into a high-value gas, comparable to natural gas in heating content. Second will be conversion of this gas into gasoline and oil through a process which Standard Oil already has been operating in Louisiana— one of the developments of the wartime need for high-octane gas. : From the pilot-plant operation the companies plan a vast commercial plant, costing about $120 million and consuming around 20,000 tons of coal daily. Its output would equal the combined capacity of both the Big and Little Big | Inch pipelines. .The national implications of this dramatic industrial story are tremendous. Eventually the process.will spread to other districts, bringing a decline in" the- difficult and cumbersome transportation of coal as an unwieldly, bulky mineral, . :

the Communist party in this country is gaining strength in the house. It goes along with a wave of fear and reaction that seems -to border on near. hysteria. Theré are those who make a logical case for outlawing the Communists. Members of the party, they say, owe their loyalty not to the United States but to Soviet Russia. Therefore they are constantly undermining the U. S. position and in some instances are led into downright treasonable acts. The logical step, then, ‘is to make ‘the party illegal so that all who belong to it will be subject to legal punishment.

But to argue that therefore the Communist party should be outlawed is a dangerous exercise in false logic. If the objective is to prevent disloyalty and help insure security of the U., S, outlawing the party will have exactly the opposite eflect. . It will drive party members underground or they will seek a disguise likely to make them more nearly a threat than they are now. . Take the experience of our neighbor, Canada, as an example.

FROM HER WINDOW she could see a young beardless man—he wasn't more than 18—sleeping under the stage coach. She tip-toed up to him and whispered that he had to hitch the horses and be out of town before another hour passed. The boy refused, whereupon Mrs, Streight produced another gun from beneath her petticoats. You bet the boy got busy. Mrs. Streight, with a cocked revolver in her hand, sat beside the driver.

States to evade Canadian draft and other laws. They returned to Canada after the German attack on Russia, which immediately made the war for them a holy war. : At the general election” June 11, 1945, Fred Rose was re-elected to parliament as a Labor Progressive member. He had been elected in 1943 as a Labor Progressive. The Communist party as a party, had never succeeded, in the 20 years of its existence, in electing a Communist. When the Soviet spy scare broke, Rose was one of those arrested. He was tried, convicted of espioneage, and sentenced to 6 years in prison. The evie dence showed that Roce, 40 years old, had been serve ing the Soviet Union since he .was 17, although he had become a naturalized ‘citizen of Canada in 1928. The Labor Progressive label did not change Rose's loyalties. It did not change the nature of the Come

‘Existing Laws Adequate’ ACTUALLY IT IS WORSE than futile. In Russia under the czar, every effort was made to suppress dissident and revolutionary parties. The Okrana, Czarist secret police, extended into every cranny of Russian life and had agents throughout the world as well. Yet the net result was to increase revolus tionary activity. The revolution which was put down in 1905 succeedéd in 1917. Under suppression, disloyalty bound to grow. that in this great free country. If our democracy is strong, if it produces the rewards and satisfactions that all people seek, then the tiny minority of Communists can be checked by existing laws.
