Today So They Put Them Dun n. That “G enuinc" Scotch, Good Health. Mr. Baker. Chapman, Arch' Criminal. By ARTHUR BRISBANE. V_ -_ The little stocks dropped yester day. and the stock exchance re minded you of the dormouse's watch at the mad hatter’s tea party. Noth ing seemed to please it. One of the Wabash stocks that have bankrupted many a man sol emnly declared a 5 per cent divi dend. And prices broke worse than ever. , “All right,” say the big fellows, “If we can't put. them up, we’ll put them down.” So they put them down. They know how to make money both ways. You don't, that’s why you shouldn't gamble. Are you buying some of the “genuine Scotch” now peddled and storing it inside your mucus mem brane? Seventeen manufacturers of “Scotch” whisky have been arrested in Germany. They had copied Scotch bottles and labels perfectly. Heaven knows what the whisky is like. The German government, arrested them for imitating British trade marks and interfering with British bootleg profits among the Yankees. George F. Baker, one of the four richest men in the world. Henry Ford, Rockefeller and Mellon being the other three, cele brates his 85th birthday today. To live 85 years is nothing. Mil lions do it. Turtles live 400 years, and whales even longer. Mr. Baker interests you because, at 85 he is actually doing the work of 10 men. f He is the ruling power, absolute czar in dozens of the nation's big gest railroad and industrial enter prises. One little item in his daily routine, for instance, is control of the great railroad system built up by the old working Vanderbilts. To be able to do that work at 85 means something. Speeches in the house of com mons and the house of lords will go out “on the air” for all of Great Britain to hear hy radio. The ap propriate remarlf >»13W he: “This solves the bedtime story problem and will put all England to sleep.” (The fact is that the best speeches in the English language are made in the house of commons, where they fight things out orr the floor, instead of “trading” them out in committee rooms, as we do here. The murder trial now absorbing the American intellect is that of Chapman, romantically described as the “arch-criminal and brigand.” What would interest civilization in this case, if there were any civ ilization to he interested, is the his tory back of this criminal. He l began in crime as undersized, un Iderfed, mentally and physically 'I starved little Irish boy. When they fraught him in his first theft they sent him to the university of crime, which is the prison. In one penitentiary, and then an other. he took post-graduate cours es. His present notoriety is the re sult. With a decent chance in life, the energy, desperate courage and re sourcefulness that now frighten the police, and cause them to keep this criminal heavily chained, might have made a useful and successful man of him. The same steel can be made into a plow or a dagger. The French are cheerful and the English exultant, over the excellent prospect of reaching an agreement on security among nations. Austen \ Chamberlain's speech seems to have I started something in the right di rection. But the French are worried about their constantly falling birth rate. Last year new French babies out numbered French deaths by only 72,216. The year before the in crease was 95,000. _ As far as safety goes, however, France needn’t worry. The millions | that used to be needed for “cannon I fodder” are needed n/1 longer. Great caterpillar-like armies of crawling infantry will he replaced by a few thousand fighters in the air. Fifty such men as the great Guynemere could demoralize an army of a -million, and kill one-third of it. The lady of Spokane demands a divorce because her husband, at breakfast, milked a goat directly into his cup of coffee. He keeps the goat in the house. The lady declares that such “table manners” could not be endured by any per »on of refinement. “Other times, other manners.” Eve would have thought it very clever had Adam done exnctly the lame thing. ri'npyrlKh*. 1925.)
