Q lsedan. Both machines are practically Through past ages wild justice decimated human beings. Even today, respect for property and human life is but skin deep in the anatomy of civilization. Granted a well--ordered home in childhood, an education normally effective, and adult activities in a community duly regardful of civil rights, "cultivated" justice for the most part prevails. Lacking all this, or any essential part of it, mankind quickly reverts to the passions of the jungle and the clan. Do away with decent home life, with effective educa-- tion and habitual regard for law, and gang law takes its place. _ Undaunted by the recent fiasco in Philadelphia, Chicago is pro-- seeding with her plans for a second Chicago World's Fair confi-- dent that she can outdo all that have gone before and come out When a Chicago gangster was questioned by the police con-- cerning the murder of a member of a rival gang his serious As far as harmony. of design and color will permit, the archi-- tects will be given full scope for the expression of individuality and originality. Upon their work will depend, in large measure, the success of the exposition. * Thus far Chicago has steered clear of the rocks upon which the Philadelphia Sesqui--Centennial Exposition floundered before it was safely embarked upon its voyage.. Let her not relax her vigilance until the exposition has finally closed its gates. "Listen, Captain. This is a personal affair. The police ain't got no business interferin'." _ The morals of the gang are those of the jungle and the stone age. Gang law presumes the individual to be a law unto himself ; or, that fgiling, his cause is taken up by his clan and waged with all the arts of ambush and treachery. When one of its members is slain the gang never appeals to the police for justice, but takes the law in its own hands. "Revenge is wild justice," wrote Bacon, and he might have added that the instinctive desire for revenge is only partly sup-- pressed in man, ever ready to resort to "wild justice." --_ When the first talk of the super--highway between Chicago and Milwaukee came to our ears, it was accompanied by skeptical re-- marks that branded the enterprise as a pipe dream of some irre-- sponsible official. Even while the work of getting the right--of-- way was progressing, there was considerable doubt as to the ac-- tual construction of the road. * Lake county, lying directly in the path between Chicago and Milwaukee, will be benefited through increased realty values, Chauncey Depew, 93 years old, is dead. How any man could attend all the banquets that Chauncey did, eat banquet food, and still live to such a ripe old age will remain one of the mysteries of the world. We have a hunch that his optimistic outlook on life was one of the contributing causes to his longevity. f speedier transportation to either Milwaukee or Chicago, and the relief of the shore line congestion. The highway will draw many of the tourists who otherwise would pass through the city, but its advantages offset the disadvantages. Bombings in Chicago have become so frequent this year that scientists watching the university seismographs hesitate about announcing earthquakes before reading the morning newspapers, because their instruments may have been affected by dynamite exploding in Bill Thompson's front yard instead of by Mother Earth. In the wake of the daily explosions have appeared num-- erous quips about the Windy City. They express the humorous slant that the outside world has taken on the defiance of law and order in the second largest city in the United States. s The caption heading this editorial has become popular in the last two weeks. Others are: "Have you had your pineapple today?" "A pineapple a day keeps the voters away"; and "Yes, we have no pineapples today". Still another has reference to the rocket's red glare and bombs bursting in air. The activity of.the lawless element is hard on the victims, but it is a life saver to the paragrapher. "Yes, I came from Chicago. No, I did not wear a bullet--proof vest." for. Highland Park. Today the motoring public is beginning to look upon the new highway as an assured fact. Plans for the great road have been completed, the route mapped and approved, and the co--operation of city improvement boards secured. With all these factors tend-- ing to make the pipe dream a bit of realism, one cannot be blamed for already counting on the advantages that will be brought about by the 71--mile highway, 52 to 100 feet wide.

PAYROLLERS FATE IS AT STAKE Certainly, it is no price war be-- tween two small--town merchants; it is, in 'jact, a great international bat-- tle for oil--a battle precipitated largely by the determination of Great Britain to absorb, if possible, the lion's share of the undeveloped petroleum resources of the world. _ The corner--stone of the British policy seems to be to keep the A-- merican oil prospector out. Thus we can see in this latest out--cropping a war, not between oil traders, but be-- tween an American oil company on one side and a powerful British oil company on the other side operat-- ing as the agent of and backed by the British government.
