Powers and Stone, Inc, New York and Chicago FRIDAY, MAY 18, 1928 FARMING IN HAWAII AND CANADA Although no new sugar plantations have been atarted in Hawaii in twenty years, pro- duction increased from 500,000 tons in 1910 to a crop of 811,000 tons in 1927, The old plantations have perhaps increased thelr areas a little around the edges, but the sugar growers have no new country to de- velop because all available lands are at ele- vations too high and dry for sugar, The phenomenal advance in production has been due largely to scientific and progressive methods in agriculture, New cane varieties of higher productiveness have been devel- oped to replace former kinds that failed from plant diseases, the inroads of ® insect pests and other causes. Hawaii's 811,000 tons in 1927 were har- vested from 127,000 acres of land embraced in forty-eight plantations. The lowest indi- svidual plantation yield was 2.17 tons per acre, the highest 11,30 tons, Thus it appears the farmers in Hawaii are overcoming the handicap of a restricted land area by increasing their production per pcre, Canadian farmers have more than enough land, but they have found scientific cultivation essential to profitablé farming. If in far-away Hawaii sugar growers can increase their production 75 per cent. by modern agricultural methods, there must be many Canadian farmers who could increase still more the productivity of their land and eonsequently their own income, i TO CURB CRIME The "fence" makes burglary and highway robbery not only possible but profitable, 'Abolish the "fence" and you rid the country of the professiofal thief, When a criminal has loot on his hands he must dispose of it speedily and secretly, As a rule he knows who will buy it before he commits the rob- bery, of It is a fact well known to both criminal and the police that stolen goods of consider- able value or quantity cannot be safely dis- posed of except through the "femce" who knows he is "buying stolen goods. He is. of- ten doing an ostensibly legitimate business but is always ready -to do business with . thieves--paying for the "swag" only a frac. tion of its worth and concealing its source. The "fence" takes less risk and makes more profit than the direct-action criminal and when public officials are corrupted for the protection of criminals the bribery money u comes from the "fence." It is difficul¥f to see where the "fence" is any less guilty than the bandit from whom he buys stolen goods. It is of no satisfaction te the towns and small cities of the country to know that the "fence" is seldom found outside the larger cities. When professional thieves venture into the "sticks" it is usually for the pur- pose of filling "orders" from city "fences." Thievery outside the large centres of popu- lation would be reduced to petty offences by the extermination of the latter, When the police have made cold cash the only "legal tender" among criminals by abol ishing the "fence" they will have gone a long way toward solution of the crime prob- lem, but the police have long shown their inability to cork these outlets for stolen goods, EDITORIAL NOTES thousands of scientists and high-priced eng- ineers, an epoch-making means of carrying sound is finally perfected.

OUR SPARE TIME (Kansas City Post) The fact there is considerable un- employment during prosperous times means simply that through improved methods of working we have earned more time for play, but bave not learned how to use it. When three-fourths of the peo- ple can do all the work that needs to be done in the country, it means that all of the people are in posi- tion to work one-fourth less than they once did, but somehow the leisure isn't divided up evenly. Some are out of work, some do »0 little that they might be classed among the idle, and others are still determined to work from sun to sun. The human element just will keep conditions from being perfect. We people are in better shape to be happy than ever before, if we only had 2 manager to tell us how to go about it. REWARDS FOR DEAD CRIMINAL (Los Angeles Examiner) A Texas grand jury will investi- gate charges that murder rings are formed to collect rewards from bankers. - The Texas bankers offered $5. 000 each for bank burglars, dead. Ingenious gentlemen have peen causing individuals, not really bank burglars, to pose as such, then kill- ing them and collecting rewards. Banks must be protected, but bave bankers a right to establish laws of their own, unlike state laws? And what about inciting to murder, when you offer a reward for a corpse? 'The penalty for at tempted bamk burglary is not inm- stant death, but the bankers' re- ward offer makes that the law. merchants offered $5.- 000, dead or alive, for any banker guilty of charging usurious inter- est.

Fi AN ORGANIZATION TO PRE- VENT MENTAL AILMENTS It has been interesting to watch the gradual effect upon the - ents of the physical examination of their children in the schools. At first there was considerable opposition; as parents felt that the school authorities were inter- fering with their private rights. However, as they saw the won- derful progress physically and mentally where deficlent eye- sight was corrected, improper hearing restored to normal, den- tal 4youbles likewise relieved, in- fectefl tonsils and - adenoids re- moved, improper posture and other conditions detected they have come to look upon the school doctor, dentist and nurse as real friends of the family, \ They have confidence in them and this confidence has %een of great help to a movement start- «1 just ten years ago tnat goew just a little deeper into the pri- vate life of the child and the home.' As you know there are more in- mates in hospitals for mental ailmcats than there are in all the other hospitals, notwithstanding that there are now more cures accomplished in mental condi- tions than ever before. Dr. C, A, Martin of Montreal tells us that a few physiclans, and some thoughtful men and women, in thinking over this problem of go many inmates of mental hospitals, realized that the only chance to combat this condition was to seek the cause first, and then try to correct it, . And so ten years ago a soclety known as the Caradian National Council for Mental Hyglene was inaugurated.' Think of that for a moment, A voluntary organization banding themselves together to try and prevent mental ailments, prevent mental ailments by examination of mothers before birth of the child, and te help the condition of those who were incurable, They found out that at least four children in every hundred needed scientific treatment along mental lines, owing to cravings, tantrums, repressions and so forth, These figures show that there are more children ol this type than there are graduates of our universities, This organization was able to show the Canadian government, and the government of seven prov- inces, that if these children were given special training that the ma- jority of them would become use- ful citizens and take their place in the world, instead of hecoming a care on the community. This organization raised and spent its own money in demonstrating these facts to the governments and to the public generally, And these governments have spent millions of dollars on the advice of this organization, and have spent it gladly, not only from a humanitarian standpoint, but hecause it has been a good investment financially, It is or- ganizations such as this that makes so many folks think that the world is really growing bet- ter, because behind it all is the thought of *the gther fellow."
