I i O'. . . ei ol the people of this state: In the frontier days whenever a horse thief was Is Serious Unemployment Problem At This Time captured he was strung up to the nearest tree. The penalty seems harsh until we take into consideration the fact that when a pioneer was bereft of his horses his family was in danger of starvation. So by common consent it was held that a horse thief was not fit to live. In these days, horse stealing is rare. We have auto thieves instead of the desperados of half a century ago. Some of these auto thieves are bandits who steal cars in order to make their escape after committing some other crime, such as highway robbery or looting a bank. They should be discouraged as much as possible, and we believe the man who rides off is somebody rise's automobile should be made to suffer for it. We would not have him hanged, shot or electrocuted, but we would lock him up long enough to make him see the error of his ways. There has been too much leniency in such cases in times past and the statutes have been too weak." & If we are to regard as accurate the figures Issued by the department of labor concerning the number of persons out of work in the United States during the month of January, we shall have to admit that never, so far as sny authentic records go, has the unemployment problem In this country assumed a scale of such magnitude, says an exchange.
