from mine enemies,” 2 Sam, 22:4
CHICAGO'S RUM ROW
The death roll of Chicago’'s Rui
Row, which has rcached 75 in the
last two years of gang warfare, is
'i"\_.lmos!_ complete, in the opinion of
yeteran police observers, and the
principal bands of beer runners and
@cohol dealers are about “shot ' tu‘

in the hands of police and ruée{fix
authorities, The coroner's statigtics
show that many more have been elim
inated by bullets than by law, but
eventually most of those still alive
have been arrested, and another
“wild west” epic, as Jurid as any of
the past, ig closed.
A police legend now accepted s
fact traces the beginning of the gang
war to the death, in November, 1921,
of Mike Merlo, asknowledged leader
of the west side Italians, He is said
to have forbidden hostilities against
rivals in the business of manufactur.
ing and dispensing illicit liquor. Whiie
he lived, occasional liguor robberies
finown as “hijacking,” were the only
outhursts. Merlo died of pm-umoui‘u.‘
not bullets,
The day after his. funeral, l)iuu.
O'Banion, head of a compoesite group,
chiefly with Irish surnames, was shutl
down and the war was on. Sum(.l
times the police were able to en,
counter an auto load of gangsters
and a few of them met death in
conflict with the law. But nearly al.
ways competitors got to them first
with little or no traces of the ilHfluhS.l
ing. i
i
Of Merlo's lieutenants were the six)
Goenna brothers, three of whom wm‘v!
quickly slain in revenge for the]
O'Banion shooting. Many of other
gangs were “taken tor a ride,” shot
and thrown from an automobile ul'.m.':i
suburban roads. '

The death roll grew until 54 namecs |
were added in the first eight months |
of 1926 amd then the leaders of "!('}

of the list, were taken on umrdw!

JAPANESE CASTE z
Japanese pride of caste \\'hir':xl
caused a poor family to refuse to]
permit a son to marry a girl of (hn;
highest social order has created aily
unusunal romantic situation arousing
much sympathy throughout Japan, ‘
General Baron Tanaka is one of tho !

ant Masayvuki Kofowa comes from a
poor and lowly family, but a l'umil,\'i
of pride in its class.
In his extreme yvouth he was put
out to service and became one of the
servants of Baron Tanaka. There the
youngster grew up with the beautiful
Yaeko, daughter of the Baron. |
From the first Baron Tanaka con.
ceived a liking for the boy and som
he was almost like one of the family,
becoming a constant plavmate of the
young daughter. The Bavon decided
to give the youth an education, &)
put him through school and later,
through his great influence in the
army, obtained his entrance to thie
Military academy, In the meantine,
it was apparent to all that Yacko
and Kozawa were madly in love wita
cach other., Baron Tanaka did not
olject, He liked the young man aud
he anted his daughter to be happy.
Put there was a matter of family,
The family is everything in Japau,
and, the individual nothing. It ig th?
family that arranges and permils
marriages, Their consent is absoluie.
ly necessary for a unfon, Baron
Tenaka thought he saw a way (o
make Kozawa the equal of his daugh
ter. He would adopt him according
to a common Japanese custom aad
make him his son and heir,
The proposal of adoption was made
to Kozawa’s family and an executive
scssion was held to decide the mat.
