Tolerance is the mark of the Judge Nott attacks abuses of the parole and lax enforcement of the law as counteracting the effect of punishment and ridicules the position of those who make the dogmatic statement that punishment is a fail- ure as a deterrent because it does not deter. "To test whether or not punishment is a deterrent, we must find out how it would work if it were certain to be indicted if a given crime were committed," he says.

But the enforcement of the Vol- stead Act is a farce.

PAGE EIGHT organisations Which . Pet Criminals I Walker Whiteside is now in his sec- ond month at the ever popular Stude- baker Theatre in Chicago, where "The Arabian” is pleasing‘ Urge and 'n- thusiastic audiences at every performs lance. Mr. Whiteside in his ffne, iclean and amusing melodrama, "The IArabian” is eminently suited to apr lpeal to the throngs of visitors to the I Eucharistic congress, the Elks and the l M.oose convention delegates. Not only Iis his name a household word in all parts of America, but his plays have always been of the highest type; full of romance and heart interest. invar- iably witty and always thrilling‘ in their intensity. "The Arabian" isby far Walker Whiteside's biggest hit, for it permits him to appear in a Idashing character, that of a famous (bandit, "Zantm," whose depredations (have caused the British war office to lsend an armed force against him in the far-off Egyptian desert. How [“Zantra” lures the caravan into his gsnare. and compels the doughty Cpl- lonel to accede to his own terms of l peace, serve to make the plot of "The |Arabian” one of exciting adventure. [There is the, beautiful heroine Tho l beards "Lmtra" in his den in order to ‘rescue her hero-lover, a handsome iEnglish officer. Matrnifieent Arabs, ‘clad in gorgeous costumes, stalk lthrough the many colorful scenes. I Silken swathed women of the far east lsoften the war-like atmosphere of :“The Arabian," and the weird, quaint lmusic of the sandy wastes lends an l oriental feeling to the play, which has i much to do with its huge success. Miss i Sydney Shields, one of the stage beau- Ities of the day, heads the big cast of ( New York players to be found in EWalker Whiteside's support. "There are various theories regard- ing this downward trend of prices for commodities, at a time when a rise had been widely predicted," says Mr, Ntyes. "it is conceivable that the world-wide readjustment process which followed 1920 did not end the drift away from war-time prices. The present average, it is true,' is than than 25 per cent below the high point of that? 'inflation year' and no higher than the average of the month 'when the United States went to war in 1917; but it is also nearly 60 per cent above the pre-war average, not "nly in the United States but in prac- tically all other countries where the pre-war. gold standard has been maintained or restored. That increase is in force at a time when the world as a whole is poor, in consequence of the waste of war and the bdrden of post-war taxes. lf'it be answered that at any rate the people of the United States are rich and prasper- one, the answer Is that the people of Europe are not, and that their condi-' tion has a bearing both on our op- portunities for export trade and on foreign competition. Part of the present increase of average prices over 1913 must be ascribed to the higher wages of labor, in which there ii little or no sign of readjustment. But except for a few contradictory influences of that kind, and the in- fluence of a season's scarcity or abundanse, a higher or Ltwer level of prices will in the l ng run be de- termined by the producer’s idea of what he can get for his goods and the consumer's idea of. what he oupht to pay or may be compelled to pay." The downward trend of commodi. ties since the end of lust summer is surprisingly at variance with the course of fimuwial expectations, ae- cording to Alexander Dana Noyrs, economist, in a statement in the May Seritmer's Magazine. The moveme'nt wm accelerated dur- ing March, Mr. Noyes shows, and is ehieily visible in farm products. , _ m g; “may.
