TIME FOR A CRUSADE
Charles Lindbergh has the title of Colonel. He is looked upon as
the ideal type of American citizen, an emblem, in fact. In this respect
he guages up to a symbol, more in keeping with the soul of democracy
than potentate, politician or plutocrat.
It appears that the hour is approaching when hope must be aban
doned for recovering his baby, which a.gain is symbolical of the dream
of every young mother or prospective mother.
When this hour arrives, America should have a crusade. The idea
is not new, it has prevailed throughout history. Through it our only
progress has been recorded. Through it savage has been conquered and
raised to the standard of civilization. It required blood to do this, as it
required blood and martyrdom to enthrone Christianity; to establish
democracy; to win normal rights from oppressors, political or otherwise.
It was required to sweep the desperado from the American frontier to
make room for law and order, when men refused to recognize and ad
here to the tenets of organized society.
Blood should flow again in these United States. It should be that
of the educated savages wrho have been givun their chance and refused it.
Who could better lead this crusade than Colonel Charles A. Lind
bergh. the sufferer, the martyr to honor, cleanliness, inspirational con
duct?
Give him his pick of the army; give him the names of every man
whose record shows him either directly or indirectly associated with
racketeering, criminality or in any movement looking to set aside the
laws of life and property.
Hunt them from their dens as one would hunt rats. If they must
die with blood on their hands, let it be that of a soldier performing his
duty, giving no quarter and asking none.
The agencies of law and order wink at slayings between racketeers
If we are to have racketeering which reaches into the American home
let the American of the Lindbergh type lead the law and order racket
If the law cannot reach the arch-murderer, kidnapper and robber, it
.should not be made to reach an army of young Americans engaged in
a crusade which would wipe out the spawn of the gutters for which
there is no room in lawful society.
Millions of unemployed, thus placed through the principle of rack
eteering in business in high places, and whose presence in the bread
lines is evidence of their honesty, would be glad to join in such a cru
sade.
If an army is not for the protection of the nation, then what is it
for?
What is designated by a subscriber as the lowest skunk unhung k
the man who steals waxid that the subscriber packs on his back from th<
beach, a few hundred feet away.

GONSIDERITION, BORIH
WASHINGTON, D. C., April 21.—
In a voice which could be heard
beyond the walls of the Congres
sional chamber, Senator Borah as
serted that there can be no con
sideration given postponement of
foreign war debts to the U. S. until
Europe first settles her own inter
nal financial affairs.
He said Great Britain made no
provision for paying her war debts
to America, but neither had Eng
land repudiated those debts which
are held in abeyance until Eng
land can ascertain how much other
countries will pay her.
CHIMNEY FIRE
The Seward Volunteer Fire De
partment truck responded to an
alarm Wednesday afternoon and
made a run to the McKay house on
Third Avenue, the upstairs of
which is occupied by Charles Skin
J ner and the main section by John
; Blcm. The chimney fire originat
ed in the upstairs and the volume
of smoke which issued forth is said
to have been the reason an alarm
was turned in. The chimney fire
was under control when the truck
arrived.
