J, December Not only is the church of hi factor closed against him, but it was said here today that the schools this vicinity unquestionably bar the attendance of sixteen-year- old Francis Kluxen, 3d, who was ac- cused and acquitted of the murder of eleven-year-old Janet Lawrence, school girl found dead in Woods some two y thirty-five stab wound The Dbitterness of the against young Kluxen in county knows no bounds. An eviden of this is the statement of Prosecut James H. Bolitho that he 1mept to have again desipte the vision that no man! life offense. To many persons the Bolitho threat is regarded merely as a move, but that the prosecutor should seek favor by making such an nst the heard of move ag: boy is eignificant of the temper of the county and of the people of Madi- son village Boy Kept From Churc! The Bolitho threat has morthern D 1he bov again. The rector of the church has denfed that he instigated the move againat says that it entirely up to the vestrymen all not at- tend the church. It is admitted at the church, however, that Mr. Sayre has been told that Francis would be forcibly ejected if he attempted to at- the Kluxen boy and cide who shall and who s tend further services. The Kluxen lad is a Roman Catholic, and Mr. Syre says it is for this reason mlone that he does not press the issue in his own church. According to Mr. Sayre Francis will be brought up in his own faith, but he has made no move as vet to send the boy alone to serv- ices in any Catholic parish. tected. College in Engla be_spent. There is no_question but that the statement of Prosecutor Bolitho that be will seek retrial of Krancis has added a vast amount of timber to the flames of hatred running against the Jad in this section of the state, and it may be necessary vet for his patron to take him away. Mr. Sayre says. however, he will remain right here. and he will fight all the boy's “traducers and persecutors” to the bitter end. He calls attention to the fact that.a pri- vate detective who criticized the con- duct of the case against Francis and his acquittal was promptly tried for criminal libel and sentenced to a year in jail. Attorneys consulted by Mr. yake light of the prosecutor's threat and regard it as an unwise and inflam- matory move to make at this time. TThe prosecutor says young Kluxen was iried by.a “foreign jury” of talesmen melected from another county. ys, therefore, that his trial w fegal in any way, and, therefore, his 1ife was not in jeopardy. It is claimed that the jurymen from another county did not constitute a body of the boy peers. Lawyers who discussed the: | today say the prosecutor's position fe entirely untenable and thay further say that Mr. Bolitho himself coes not expect anything really to come from his move. That is why they are par- ticularly critical of it.” 1If It is up to anyone to make a complaint of the Jury it is the defendant, it The rights of the state coull not be contravened no matter frem part of the state the jury might be summoned. The move by M. Bolitho will fail, according to the lawyers who have looked up the precodents.

ASK FOR NEW TEST OF ALIEN LAND LAWS Califernian Insists on Right to Make Crop Contract With Japanese. An effort to reopen one phase of the alien land law cases, recently decided by the Supreme Court, was embodied in & motion for a rehearing submitted today by J. J. O'Brien and J. Inouye. As the owner of a farm in Santa ‘Clara county, Calif., O’Brien sought to enter into’'a cropping contract with Inouye, under which the latter would work on the farm and. receive as his pay part of the crop: The Bupreme .Court decided that they had no right under the Consti- tution or.the treaty with Japan to enter into such a contract, and that the contract was in violation of the allen land laws of the state. In asking the court to review its decision, Brien and Inouye de- clared the, courts of California had héld that the proposed contract was not in violation of the state alien land laws and imsisted that the de- cisionl of the state supreme court was controlling and could not be t aside.
