Addressing the noon luncheon of j the local Rotary club, Willson reviewed the emergency relief program, touch- ing briefly on the activities of the Works progress administration, the Tural rehabilitaton and resettlement Programs and the welfare board.

HAUPTMANN REPRIEVE Editor Tribune: Under that title the Tribune had an editorial in the January 18 issue. It began by asking several questions. among others if it was Governor Hoffman's desire to bask in the lime- light of publicity, Well, it may prob- ably be hard for some to understarid why even cheap publicity is not always the main thing—with all that talk from more or less silly actors and radio-croners about “my pub- lic"—even at a moment when a na- tionally known figure tried to run away from it. And the Lord knows that man has got a lot of cheap pub- licity, as the press and alone is responsible for. So one can have reason to be suspicious; pub- licity versus a human life? But— should it have been the shadows of Sacco and Vanzetti? Or the dreadful fate of Mooney and Billings? Or the so very common expressions and ac-| cusations: railroaded, framed, double- crossed? Does it happen? And if so. where will the next blow fall—on you, have been proved that Hauptmann had been innocent, the finger of ac- cusation would point at Governor Hoffman: “You had the power!” Sen- timentality? Why not feeling of re- sponsibility and conscience? When we read about the character, @ well-known magazine tells “more hidden secrets” of the Lindbergh case, have we not reason to ask: “In NORTH DAKOTA WEATHER Tawe ae | est es le BISMARCK, clear .... $31 11 *-06/ Devils Lake, clear 11!) =36 | ‘Williston, clear 8 2 ‘00 | ‘00 what manner of procedure was that case conducted?” He was one of the main witnesses for the state and still he has “more secrets” to tell in a magazine!

The Tribune was absolutely right: Justice can afford to wait but it can- not—and should not—afford to com- mit justice-murder! FRED KNUDSEN. Editor’s note: The “circus as- pects” of the Flemington trial are admitted by all, but the fact re- mains that the defense con- tributed to them as much or more than the prosecution. Since the trial was had under the accepted rules of evidence there undoubtedly are phases of which the public has not been advised, Anyone who has ever heard a court trial knows that some issues which interest the jury are never developed by either the prosecution or the defense. On that basis, “Jafsie” may not have been permitted to make all the observations and speculations which occurred to him. The rules do not permit either prosecution or defense on the basis of speculation. It is accept- able evidence that counts. Match the actual evidence given at the trial with the speculations and theories now being advanced by persons sympathetic to Haupt- mann and it would appear that the latter are pretty flimsy stuff. % ry * | Additional Markets | oH INVESTMENT TRUSTS (By the Associated Press) (Over the Counter in New York) Maryland Fund. 18.99; 20.54, Quart.
