THE OLD SHIRT NEEDS MENDING
“Sin Death In The Pen
slow death in San Quentin’s new death chamber where lethal
fumes of gas now exact the supreme penalty of doomed men.
Already the tides of opposition are beginning to mount
against this chamber of retribution.
Proposals to abolish it, and supplant it with other deathdealing methods, constitute in themselves a clue to the reasons
for opposition to the gas chamber. :
One measure, which the state legislature will shortly
hear about, proposes the electric chair. Another, also to be advanced soon at Sacramento, goes so far as to recommend the
introduction of the firing squad.
These clearly indicate that the disturbing aspect of the
gas chamber, which has unnerved prison officials, newspapermen, and most other spectators, is its gruesome slowness.
Even the gallows, by comparison, appears more humane in
the view of these people.
If it were the purpose of the death penalty to inflict not
only punishment. but torture as well, then the gas chamber!
would have much to recommend it. But in modern’times, at .
least, it has been the aim of the state to remove the life of its
doomed criminals as humanely and expeditiously as possible.
Torture belongs to an older.age than ours—in America, at:
least!—but if the accounts of eyewitnesses at San Quentin
hold any merit, then torture is what takes place in death by
cyanide fumes.
The issue here is not whether capital punishment is good
or bad. but simply which of several methods is the quickest.

and impeded, as well, effective remedies. For monopoly takes
many forms. It is not necessarily big. The village blacksmith
and the town general store, in their day, exercised virtual
monopolies in their communities until modern transportation
and mass merchandising abolished their control.
The intelligent citizen may find one of the most clearcut statements on the matter in this definition by Chester H.
Gray, a very perceptive business executive: ‘From the public point of view, a monopoly may be defined as being a cor‘porate aggregation’ strong enough, whether big or little, in
capital and physical assets and favored enough by law and
regulation to dictate prices of the commodity handled by it, and
" to throttle competition, all of which results in the ultimate con‘sumer paying more.”
This definition will prove unpopular with crusading poli‘ticians whose zeal leads them to ignore the consumer's interest
while trying to destroy the mass retail systems, which do only
22 per cent of all retail business.
But in connection with the present inquiry, it emphasizes
the difference between monopoly and bigness, and between
bigness and badness—a source of confusion which has often
placed the public at the mercy of politicians.—Contributed.
