FRANCE ENDS
“NOSE COUN1"
Paris — (UP) — The complete
census returns made public by the
government show that the author
of the lyric which had its run on
Broadway several years ago, “Fifty
Million Frenchmen Can’t Be Wrong”
was guilty of exaggeration.
By actual count there are but 38,
248,255 Frenchmen and 2,495,642
foreigneis in France, a total popu
lation of 41,834,923.
This census was very satisfactory,
for it showed a revitalized race, and
for the first time in a quarter of
a century, Fiance showed a popula
tion gain through births rather than
through increased Influx of foreign
ers. The previous census in 1926,
showed but 38,248,255 Frenchmen
and a total population of 40,743,
897.
The foreign penetration is so great
that in the Alpes-Maritimes de
partment, which comprises the
French Riviera and the Franco
Italian frontier, two out of every
five persons are foreigners. Ital
ians predominate, with English in
second place.
In Paris and the Seine depart
ment one resident in 10 is a for
eigner, and here again the Italians
lead all races, with British second,
Americans third, Germans fourth,
followed by Spanish, Belgians, Poles
and varied Africans.
DIVERSIFIED PHILOSOPHY
"Now tliis depression’s not all bid."
And then he added, "No, Sir!
For I take notice every day
My closest friends are closer.”
Equality we never want,
With those without the pale;
But with the folk above us placed—
Well that’s another tale.
Japan’s Mikado soon may get
That chilling sort of thrill
That Germany once handed out
To foolish Kaiser Bill.
We might as well forget at once
That money that we lent;
For though those loans may not be
sound,
We know they’re permanent.
Japan has coined a slogan now,
And never even winks
As thus she boldly sets it forth:
"Save China from the Chinks ”
From church to church our candi
dates,
Their daily step is bent.
Whatever else, mayhap, betides,
They’re surely keeping Lent.

CRIME AND*PUNISHMENT
From Indianapolis News
The tendency in recent years to
lengthen the sentence of criminals
rated as second and third offenders,
and to give life sentences to fourth
offenders, has drawn the fire of pris
on reformers. They have tried in
vain to persuade legislatures to
soften the Jaws in the interest of
what they call humanitarian stand
ards. They feel that society is to
blame for not finding a way to de
tect and eradicate criminal tenden
cies in young persons and that a
sentence for crime is a confession
of social failure, with the prisoner
paying the penalty.
The deterrent value of the habit
ual criminal acts is constantly
stressed by police and judicial of
ficers. At a recent convention of the
District Attorney’s association of
the state of New York a proposal to
modify the habitual criminal act
was rejected by a large majority,
so large that the minority conceded
unanimity, and the record so shows.
The main arguments were that the
Washington and the Cherry Surplus.
From the St. Louis Dispath.
In this bicentennial year, the yarn
about Washington and the cherry
trees is catalogued as a flight of
Parson Weems' fertile Imagination,
though long accepted as sober fact.
It took Washington's reputation 126
years to live down that Little Rollo
story (it first apeared in print in
1806 >. It would be far more diffi
cult, however, to debunk such a le
gend should it gain currency today.
Such a report from a Virginia farm
in 1932 would be meat, drink and
dessert to the farm board wiseacres

law had kept many offenders from
taking another chance. The old of
fender knows this law. He has been
tried, convicted and sentenced to
prison three times. His court ex
perience and his prison education
have familiarized him with it. The
district attorneys believe, according
to their discussion and vote. +hat
an old offender facing a life sen
tence for his next fall from grace
really is frightened into making a
sincere effort to accommodate his
behavior to social standards.
Long sentences express the public
view that a person convicted of the
crimes designated should be kept
beyond the possibility of mischief
not so much for his own sake, or
even for the promotion of his re
formation, as for the relief of so
ciety from anxiety attendant on
knowledge that he is at large. If
there is proper regard for the cle
ment of ignorance or evil compan
ionship in considering the convic
tions of young first offenders, the
people apparently feel that they
have satisfied their humanitarian
instincts. Their whole desire is to
give another chance to new crim
inals, unless the crime is very se
rious. In states taking the extreme
course with hardened criminals,
there is a noticeable tendency,
when the police and courts are
alert, toward driving felons to re
form or to other pastures. The old
theory that increasing penalties be
yond reason discourages jury con
victions is sound, but apparently
this point has not been reached.

"Wipe Out Guilt Clause."
Albert Guerard in the North Amer
ican Review.
Versailles (the treaty) is crumb
ling by imperceptible degrees. The
process could be immeasurably
quickened if only France volun
teered to expunge the “guilt” clause.
This clause, which claims to be
moral, is morally invalid because it
was exacted by force. It is unjust
as applied to republican Germany.
There is no sense at present in con
demning the defunct Ilohenzollern
empire; the very existence of the
German republic is its condemna
tion.
It would not be necessary to con- I
who specialize in solving the cot
ton problem by advice to plow un
der every third row and who grap
ple with the dairy situation by sug
gesting extermination of every
tenth cow These economic wizards
would at once hail the little Wash
ington boy as a patriot seeking to
end the cherry surplus by using their
method . it would be simple to
prove that a cherry surplus exists, i
w'hat with the abundance of cherry
queens in the. orchard states, the
vast n1 her of cherry pies presented
to the iite house, and the i idic I
croonr unanimous mumbling that j
life is a bow! cl cherries. A new ;
vene all the signatories of Versatile#;
a one-sided declaration on the pari
of France would suffice.
This clause expunged, Germany
would be automatically liberated
from any punitive indemnity, such
as the one imposed upon France in
1871; sha would not be liable, either,
for the cost of the war to the allies.
But she would not be excused from
reparations.
For the sake of peace, the world
must learn that it does not pay to
be the aggressor. And, in spite of all
quibbling, tha aggressor is the on#
who fires the first shot. Let therS
be no first shot, there will be no
war. If we admitted the Prussian
plea, that a nation in self-defense
may strike first, the lesson of 1914
18 would have been in va'n.
“Guilty” or not, whoever .rosses
his neighbor's frontier should be
held accountable for every damage
done beyond. If Germany, like
France, had held her troops 10 kilo
meters within her own boundaries,
the whole tragedy would have been
averted.

FEW FISH ESCAPE
PURSUIT OF OTTER
Among all the animals that are
food fishermen, there Is probably
none more capable than the otter.
You can often locate him by finding
broken shells of shellfish, of which
he seems to be especially fond. He
leaves the scattered fragments of his
meal on the banks of streams and
lakes and among the rocks.
The coat of the otter is of brown
fur, and It is so valuable that, in or
to prevent men from taking It
from him, as he prefers to wear It
himself, he hides away near secluded
lakes or water courses far from any
place where men live. He Is almost
twice the size of the mink, being often
40 inches long, and looks something
like a seal when he is partly out of
water and his wet fur gleams In the
Bun.
This clever fisherman Is the cham
pion or the fishing veterans who wear
fur. No fish is too swift for him.
Whereas the mink prefers to take his
fishing easily, the otter dives, swims
or floats after his prey. He is an ex
pert swimmer and can dart about un
der tin* water with wonderful speed,
Bo that no fish lias much of a chance
when he goes fishing. He always
catches his fish.
Another water dweller who some
times get credit as a fisherman, but
lives on n vegetarian diet, is the
beaver. The beaver builds his home
out In the water and there stores up
his winter food. He likes the bark
of trees and these lie cuts down when
they are succulent and tender with
thp sap. He gathers enough to tide
him over the winter time, and lives
on ids hoard, leaving the fish, si range
ly enough, strictly nlone.
Scot Saw Possibilities
of Under-Water Craft
Tlie story of the evolution of un
der water boats seldom makes men
tion of a Scotsman's Idea which, had
It been translated Into practical
form, might have given Scotland the
boner of producing the first sub
marine, says a writer In the Weekly
Scotsman. That distinction falls, ac
tually, to a Dutchman, Cornelius
Van Drebbell, who constructed a
submersible craft which was tried
out on the River Thames, near Lon
don, In tlfe early part of 1021, but
dhl not prove much of a success.
It Is a remarkable fact that nearly
thirty years before Van Drebbell’s
Invention John Napier of Merchts
ton, the celebrated Inventor of lo
gnrlthms, announced that he had In
mind a similar Innovation In meth
ods of navigation. In a pamphlet
Which he published In Edinburgh on
June 7, 1596, Napier referred to “de
vices of sailing under the waters,”
which he “hopes to perform.” He
does not appear to huve attempted
to realize that hope, however, and no
more is heard of the Idea of a Scot
tish submarine which, we may take
It, would have given the Firth of
Forth an additional measure of
feme.
