FROM DILLINGER TO WAR
an
The Administration is moving to prevent two diametridifferent kinds of crime.
First completed move was the signing by the President
of a group of bills requested by the Department of Justice,
which provide Federal penalties for offenses that have here.
tofore been covered by state laws only. One bill provides
that if a kidnaped person is kept seven days it shall be legally
presurmed that he has been taken across a ‘state line, which
brings it within Federal jurisdiction and makes it a very serious of fense indeed. Other bills in the group make it a Federal
trime to send extortion messages in interstate commerce, to
flee across state lines to avoid prosecution or giving testimony
in felomy cases, to defraud or rob national banks, to ship stolen
securities across state lines, and so on. iss
: “The passage of the bills gives Federal authofities a great
deal more leeway than they ever had before in running down
‘and punishing criminals. They are the direct result of the Dillinger ““comic-opera,” which has made everybody concerned,
Federal and local authorities both, look pretty foolish.
Im the second move the President is striking at war—international crime on the grand scale. He sent a resolution to
Congress calling for ratification of international. agreements
* that would call for licensing arrangements for international
arms shipments. This, he said, would help to end the ‘mad
race in armament which, if permitted to continue, may well
result im2 war.’ The President wishes that special attention
be givem to ending the jungle warfare between Bolivia and
Paraguay, which has been continuing for years in the Gran
Chaco district. Nota great deal about that war has been heard
in this country—but foreign observers say it is as ghastly, as
needless and as destructive a conflict as has.ever been fought.
W/ithin the next few months there is going to be a, great
deal heard about the arms manufacturers—those who make
big guns, big shells, tanks and similar weapons. It all started
with an article in Fortune, which was reprinted in many newspapers commented on by many more. This was followed by
two books by a well-known journalist showing the methods,
the set-up and the activities of the great arms companies.
“There are no big concerns of the kind in this country, and it
+s said that our arms makers have for the most part kept aloof
from the more nefarious activities of the European concerns.
In Europe, however; their power extends into government—
interlocking directorships and stock ownership make them an
almost absolute trust. During the war English concerns shipped weapons to Germany—and Germany shipped supplies to
England——through neutral Switzerland. An example: In
Scotland there is a field piece in a public square. On one side
of it are the names of the British troops who died in capturing
it from the Germans. On the other is the manufacturer s
name plate— Vickers, largest English arms maker.

This latter assertion is: borne out
by some of the great men of -history
—men who have traveled to all parts
of the globe. Read these excerpts
oe their writings:
MARK TWAIN. “People will go
to ‘water cures’ and ‘movement
cures’ and to foreign lands. for
\ health; but three months of camp
life on Lake Tahoe would restore an
‘Egyptian mummy to’his pristine vigor, and give him an appetite like an
alligator. The air up there—in-the
clouds is very pure and fine, bracing
and delicious. And why shouldn’t it
be? It is the same the
breathe.”’
THOMAS STARR KING: “To a
wearied frame and tired mind what
refreshment there is at Lake Tahoe!
The air is singularly searching. and
angels
and music.”’
} WILLIAM JENNINGS. BRYAN:
iy cannot imagine there could be a
+more beautiful place on the face of
the globe than Lake Tahoe. There
one finds an inspiring grandeur. I
believe everyone who sees Lake Tahoe has added something higher and
finer to his life.’’ :
JOSHPH -DECONTE: “I
dream away my life here with those
}1 love. How delicious a dream! Of
fall the places I have yet seen, Lake
. Tahoe is the one I could longest en. Joy and love the most.”’
. JOHN VANCE CHENEY: “The
traveler who looks upon Lake Tai hoe for a few hours only learns little
of its rich variety. Several weeks
le required to drink in its full
{beauty and charm.”
