When so much has been said and written about the ease with which criminals escape from just punishment for their crimes, one would think that Indiana would have taken heed to the indignation aroused because John Dillinger had once been pardoned in this state. But No, Indiana’s soft-minded, sob-crying parole board must release Harold Herbert Schroeder, a torch murderer. Maybe it was not so much soft mindedness as it was political pressure which was brought to bear on the board, for his release. No matter the reason, Schroeder was pardoned from Michigan City and the news of it was kept secret from March 30 until last Saturday. Why the secrecy? The jury which tried Schroeder voted 10 to 2 that he was guilty of murder and wanted to give him a life sentence, but compromised on manslaughter. The judge’s sentence was. from two to 21 years in prison with the recommendation that he not be pardoned. The parole board’s only excuse is that “It has been the rule of all parole boards for years to release prisoners convicted of manslaughter one year after they have served the minimum of their sentence.” By these words the parole system of Indiana is condemned, for no matter how outrageous the crime, a person convicted of manslaughter can only serve three years. -— —— SO THIS IS -PROGRESS" (Murphysboro, 111., Indep.) How Joseph and Pharoh handled a cargo surplus: “Let Pharaoh do this and let him appoint officers over the land. “And let them gather all the food of those good jears that come and lay up corn under the hand of Pharaoh, and let them keep food in the cities. “And that food shall be for store to the land against the seven years of famine which shall be in the land of Egypt; that the land perish not through the famine. “And the seven years of dearth, began to come according as Joseph had said; and the dearth was in all lands but in all the land of Egypt there was bread.” How the brain trust handle* a crop surplus: "And let us get rid of this oppressive surplus of wealth so that all may be richer.. Let us plow under one row of cotton in three. Let us pay the farmers of the fields for the wheat they do not cultivate or plant. Let us pay them for the hogs they do not raise. Let us kill the young pigs and the young calves. Let us plow the growing wheat under, and let the fields lie fallow, for truly we have more food supplies than we need and they have lost their value. “And so it was done. And the brain trust sent men out into the land and told the farmers how much cotton they could plant. And they killed the young pigs and they plowed the wheat under in the fields. And they paid the fanners for being idle instead of for working, for with a surplus of food supplies idleness became a virtue instead of a vice, and thrift and industry became a vice instead of a virtue. And they levied a tax to pay for all this and collected it from the farmers and others. “And the wheat crop one year was the smallest it had been within the memory of that generation. , “And the next year came the /BQ ROUND TRIP TO (Chicago Every Week-end Travel in comfortable B4kO coaches SEE THE WORLD’S FAIR and B & o Exhibit in Travel & Transport Bldg.

drouth and th* hot winds and the dust storms. “And there was famine in the land. “And the people turned to the brain trust and said: ‘Where is the good wheat you made us plow under? Where is the good pork you made us throw on the refuse heaps?* And the brain trust said unto the people: ‘You are but guinea pigs on whom we experiment in the cause of progress. What matters if you starve provided we learn something about social experiments? If you have no bread, then eat cake.’ “And the people were wroth and turned upon the brain trust and drove them from the city, but there was famine in Upland.” X MAIL AFRICA.
