The man who contended for the right of the witnesse to refuse to an swer was Henry A. Wise, attorney for Albert B. Fall. The attorneys for the Sinclair interests merely eat the light df an intermission. ntention of the defense that it has nothing whatever to do with this matter; that {t is wholly apart from this trial and on these grounds has persistently ob- jected to the line of testimony being presented by the government. It was because of these objections the court ruled for the defense Insofar as the method of proceeding was concern- ed. Even Mr, Roberts of govern- ment’s counsel during the morning session when Judge Lacy intérposed another objection reserving the right to move all testimony along this line be later stricken from the recor admitted that he expected to prov the connection only “circumstanti- ally.” The defense did not cross examine | except in a couple of instances, one of which brought the only giggle that has been heard in the court room since the case was on trial.

Already some of those , Wish to sustain the position taken by the| senatorial committee, are inclined to find fault with the counsel for the government. This is most unfalr and uncalled for. Both Mr. Roberts and Senator Pomerene are able attor- neys. They were handed a job but wore not handed any evidence to en- nble them to carry out the job. Much rec n al ’ promp Littleton clearly who rega ardless of testimony of that which appeared in the record of the senatorial investigation can not be used in a court since it was largely hearsay and wholly unrell- able.

Thirty-eight states earned places on the roll of honor by being free from lynchings last year, according to a statement issued by the coun- cil’s commission on race relations today. Ten states—one more than last year—"bore the shame of lynchings.” Though one more state had. lynch. ings than in 1923, the number of mob murders was cut in half. Lead- ers point out, however, that four lynchings have been recorded so far in 1925, and that there must be! in- creased efforts on the part of the ehurchés and governmental authori- tles against this type of lawlessness. Three new states appear on the roll of honor this year: Arkansa#, Oklahoma and Virginia, The names of four states have been removed because of one lynching in each during the year, They are In. inois and Kentucky, which had been tree. from lynchings for two. years, and South Carolina and Tennessee which had clear records in 1923. This shows, according -to. officials of the commission, that the aboll- tlon of lynching can be achieved. The number of victims of lynch- ing in 1924 was 16, the Jowest num- ber since records ‘of the evil have been kept, according to a statement in a pamphlet by Professor Monros M. Work of Tuskegee, Institute Tuskeegee, Ala., soon to be pub- ished by the commission on race relations. “The next lowest numbers,” says the statement, ‘Iwere in 1917, when the total number of victims was 39. and in 1923 when the total number was 32. The highest number was 255.im 1892. In 1924, however, there were lynchings in ten states as com- pared with such atrocftles in nine states In 1923. The third annual honor roll of states free from a lynching in 1924 is as follows: States that Ihave never had’a rec ord of a lynching —Massachusetts, New Hampshire,* Rhode Island and Varmont—4, Additional record of a Conneoticut, Utana-4, Additional states which have no record of a lynching during the past ten years:—Delaware, « Idaho, In- diana, Jowa, Maryland, Michigan, Nevada, New Mexico, North Dakota, Oregon, Pennsylvania, South Dakota and Wisconsin—13.
