MEMBER OF THE ASSOCIATED PRESS Th Associated freis is entitled exclusively to ih ue for re -publication of all the local news printed in 'his newspaper, as well as all AP news dispau-hes Thursday Afternoon. November 10. 19 19 Crime And Punishment How much crime news should a newspaper publish? What crime news should The Moun taineer publish? Should we carry vivid de tails of ail that appears on the dockets of the police and superior courts? These are not new questions to ?.n editor. And never has there been a satisfactory answer given to cover all given circumstan ces. There appears, however, to be a new alti tude, and a new version on crime new? on the part of many newspapers. The Charleston News and Courier, ono of the oldest and most conservative newspapers in the South, has just announced a new policy in the matter of publishing crime news. The Charleston newspaper plans to ;:o the limit of publishing all the news about crime, in an honest effort to curb the growing wave in that city. Resorting to a front page editorial. The News and Courier, under the title. "Let Pun ishment Fit The Crime." announced in simple words that the newspaper was embarking on an effort to reduce the incidence "f crime by showing that crime doesn't pay. In the editorial the newspaper acknowledg ed that crime has been on the increase in its area. It foundthat some readers are shock etf by Trading btoiiesabrn.it crime.' but thatis" not enough. The paper continued: "In the thought that it would be advisable and might result in reducing crime. The News and Courier, will in the future 'play up' and make prominent, news stories of the penalties inflicted upon persons convicted of felonies." "It will do what it can to 'throw a scare' into the hearts of criminals. "The News and Courier will employ larg er headlines and not be ungenerous in Pul'c One space when an enterprising young per son, or old person, shall be sentenced to the penitentiary or to be shot to death with elec tric volts. "The stories of punishment of crime are to have at least equal prominence with the stor ies of the crimes." That is the plan of the Charleston news paper. Some Sociologists claim that the threat of punishment is no deterrent to criminals. Many disagree. Such might be the case with hardened criminals, but to those just start ing a career of crime, the story miuht be different. The campaign in Charleston will be watch- Anaistice Day Tomorrow America . will again observe Armistice Day. A day set aside in fitting re memberance of the end of the furious first World War. Tomorrow America's attention, and thoughhts will dwell on a five letter word, which means so much to the world, but which the world has seen and enjoyed so little of since 1918 PEACE. There are some people in the world today who argue that there will never be world- j wide peace again. They argue that the opin ions of man are too far apart, and that there j is little possibility of universal peace. j On the other hand, there are others who are just as sincere in their belief and convic tions, that the world can enjoy peace in every land, if the nations would only sit down and settle differences around the conference tables instead of fighting them out on the bottle fields. This is one phase of the pro gress of the United Nations. ,' We all know that there can be pence only ,' when the nations of the world universally do-; cide that Ihere shall be peace, and no more 1 conflicts. That, however, is broader in scope, than it might appear. And while the two schools of thouoht as mentioned above are being argued, and new ; recruits added to both, the scientists, and ! others who know, at frequent intervals re-1 mind us of the horrors of what would happen in another war. It is no military secret that i there are implements of warfare to be more dreaded than bulllets or shells, perhaps even more so than the atomic bomb. The recent disclosure of what havoc could be wrought with some forms of gases which are already on hand, makes one shudder to think of an other war. But instead of letting our minds dwell on any future wars, it would be more fitting on this Armistice Day to hope, pray, and work for peace universal peace. They'll Do It Every Time ftT.T?

More Reaction Against Cherokee Pageant Title The Asheville Times, in two recent edi torials, are sharing our thoughts on the name of the Cherokee pageant. The first of their editorials was titled, "Better Title Needed For The Cherokee Pageant." The second, on Monday of this week, was "Title Contro versy Good For The Cherokee Drama."' The Times went a little farther than The Mountaineer on the matter, by asking read ers to suggest names. The reaction received by The Times, editor said was "most of those we heard from thought every effort should be made to secure the right name of the play "The Cherokee Trail" before looking for MIRROR OF YOUR MIND 3 4kl8f' BXJZI anotncr title- We have' received authora- By LAWRENCE GOULD Consulting Psychologist answer, it was noted that thirty male college students responded more loudly to a woman's voice than to a man's of equal volume.
