blue room we heartily agree with the following f from rom the salt lake telegram of recent date the notion that there Is anything genuinely mysterious about the so called underworld u Is a fallacy

collection of crooks and law violators generally bound together by a common desire to get something tor for nothing a and nd to keep from getting caught while they are doing it most of them are known to the police and most of the hangouts are also known so that about the only element of mystery attached to it lies in the failure or reluctance luc tance of the police to break it up f aso so say we
