SEAFORTH, Friday, May 29, 1936. The Twentp-fourth of Map There is, we believe, some talk in -public and political circles, of abol- ishing the twenty-fourth of,, May as a public holiday, and combining it with the King's birthday which will be celebrated on June 23rd. That may meet with the approval of some people, but it will be the peo- ple of the very present and future generations. Of course• we are all loyal and ev- er ready to celebrate the king's birth - .day, but to the people who were born a former generation or two ago, the twenty-fourth of May, the Queen's Birthday, is not just an ordinary holiday. ,It is a tradition and pretty nearly a sacred tradition at that, so they are not going to have it abolished without an argument. It means too much to them for that. . Associations from earliest youth to old age have made the 24th bone of their bone and flesh of their flesh. Older generations, would be will- ing, if necessary-, to part with any other holiday, or all holidays, but the 24th' of May is the 24th of May, and there iso Oilier day quite like it. And it was a beautiful day, was the Queen's birthday this year. Per- fect weather and everything green and growing. One more perfect day to be added to memory's ever green store of other Queen's Birthdays. • The Leak in the British Budget The supposed leak in the British 13udget, whereby a number -of brok- ers and others are, alleged to have profited to the extent of many thou- sands of pounds, has brOught an abrupt termination to the colorful career of Hon. James Thomas, as a statesman. The leak in the budge(— if there really was one, if not the first in Bri- tain, is at least the first one known in nearly a hundred years, and to the British, even the hint of such a thing could not be ignored, or even passed over lightly. To his credit, Mr. Thomas asked himself for a judicial investigation when rumor pointed in his direction as the cause of the leak. And while that investigation failed to bring anything home to Mr. Thomas, the mere suspicion of guilt onl his part was enough to make him resign his cabinet position of Secretary of the Colonies, and to have his resigna- tion accepted by Premier Baldwin. Mr. Thomas first came into prom- inence in British politics with the Labor Government, and he came up from the ranks of the workers, an unusual experience f or. British statesmen, •most, if not practically all, of whom are educated from early life with a political career in view. Lacking the education and back- • ground of his -fellow Cabinet minis- : ters,'Mr. Thomas nevertheless had gt strong following and exercised more • or less influence in the country, so _ that it is hard to see how he could. Or would, even inadyertenly, have • broken the pledge of secrecy which - binds all cabinet ministers regarding the items of the Budget with which they necessarily must be conversant. If Mr. Thomas is not guilty, cer- tainly fatehas paid hint a very shab- y trick. As public men go in old '04try politics, ,he is a poor man. inister'of the ,Crown, he was Salary iof $45,000 a year. ber of , parliament he ZOO a year, a 00 which is a lot red; ally established, it will alter his situ-, ation very' little. The mere fact that an investigation under such circum- stances, was believed necessary in his case, will, it is said, preclude against his attaining cabinet rank again. Political business is ser- ious business in the 'British Isles. • Should' .Desperate Criminals Be Paroled ? The tragic happeningover the week -end when a Sarnia policeman was shot down in cold blood by •Red Ryan, a notorious criminal, ' when with a companion he attempted to hold up the. Government liquor store in Sarhia, gives rise to the query as to whether parole or clemency should ever be extended to a man, possessing the . desperate •criminal tendencies that Ryan had exhibited since his early life. Ryan, who was forty years of age when he met death on Saturday, had a police record extending back to his eleventh Year. In 1912he was sen- tenced to three years in Kingston penitentiary, a sentence which was, later reduced. The same year he was also sentenced to twelve years, the sentences to 'run concurrently.. In 1921-22 he was again sentenced to the penitentiary, his last sentence being twenty-five years, but in 1923 he made a sensational escape from Kingston and a few days later held up a Bank of Nova Scotia branch in Toronto and escaped with over three thousand dollars. He was captured the same year in. Minneapolis, and in 1924 was sen- tenced to Kingston penitentiary for life for armed robbery, and was still serving that sentence in July of last year, when he was 'paroled. During his years at Kingston, Ry- an became known as a model prison - no trouble to the.He lave authorities a,nd in the penitentiary riots of a year or more ago, is said to have exerted a strong .influence with other prisoners, on the side of the authorities, when the prison riots occurred. In all probability his., conduct at that time, coupled with. his good re- cord, had much to do with his parole a little less than a year ago. At any rate he was given his freedom. What he has done since his free- dom was given him is not on record, but certainly he must have given considerable of his time in plotting the robbery in Sarnia, and perhaps others, which have not yet been trac- • ed to him. • All of which raises the very pertin- ont question of whether criminals with life record of crime behind them, should be paroled from our prisons. Is it a fah; or ,a safe thing for the general public tO' have - these men turned out to mingle freely with their fellows? • There was a great deal of fuss and • gush in the papers when Ryan was released froth prison, just last July. He was almost received with open arms by public and press alike.' He was one brand plucked from the burning, and it was claimed' that here was one criminal, at least, who had seen the error of his ways, and was ready and eager to make a fresh start -in life. Even religious organizations made a great fuss over him- and his ser- vices were much in demand as a speaker because his text was always, "It pays to go straight". He was us- ed as a personal example to the young. He was one speaker who knew *hat he was talking about. Well, perhaps he did, but he cer- tainly did not profit by his know- ledge. Nor did he lack for assistance to help in rebulding his life. Kindly disposed persons, members of parlia- ment, senators and even a' prime minister and a Minister of Justice were behind him. He was given steady work and a good job. All he had to do was to go straight. - But did he? Did he ever have any intention of going straight? Appar- ently not. Apparently from the very day of his release he hunted upt his old companions in crime and com- menced to plot and plan his further crime career, a career that ended abruptly in. Sarnia on Saturday. - - The Federal Government has re- cently appointed a Royal CalliTliS- 810/I to go inti) the whole question of prison manapment and the treat - merit_ of criminals in our -penal insti- tutions.
