V ANDREW D. LOFFLER. TRIALS OF PRISONERS COMPARED ON RADIO John J. Wilson Contrasts Justice. Contrasting justice of today with ancient trials by fire and water, As- sistant United States Attorney John J. Wilson yesterday declared * modern courts accord prisoners at the bar every possible safeguard against maladminis- | tration of justice. Speaking over radio Station WMAL under auspices of Southeastern Uni- versity, of which he is a member of the law faculty, Wilson told how their hands in fire or boiling water or submit to other tortures designed to test their innocence or guilt. “If their hands were not burned,” he said. “they were adjudged innocent. Another method of trial was to throw the prisoner into cold water. If he floated without struggling, he was ac- quitted of the crime reld against him.” Wilson traced the changes in crim- inal law since common law days, with reference to steps taken through the years to protect prisoners from unjust conviction and confinement. Today, he asserted, the suspect and society both are assured of fair and impartial Justice. Tre talk was one of a series being given on “The Laymen and the La: Dy professors of Southeastern Uni: versity.

FIGHT CONTRACTORS’ REMOVING OF DIRT Randle Highlands Citizens Urge Street Extension in Resolution. Protesting vigorously against con- tractors removing dirt from private grounds to fill in school property, the Randle Highlands Citizens’ Association | last night unanimously adopted a reso- | lution condemning this action. The | meeting was held in the Benjamin Orr | School, Twenty-second and Prout | streets, southeast. Members contended the dirt should | be removed from streets in that section that have not been cut through. This, it was said, would accomplish two pur- | at one time and reduce the drain on public funds. It was also voted by association that they ad- | vocate additional street entrances to | the Fort Dupont parkway, now under construction. | The association offered its support on the traction merger project and re- | quested that a letter b> sent to mem- | bers of the Senate committee investigat- | ing the proposed merger, informing | them of this. | A revision of the organization’s con- | stitution was voted in another resolu- tion adopted. Willlam R. Redmond and Mrs. Gladys I Sanders were| accepted as new members of the group. | Adelbert W. Lee, president of the as- | soclation, presided. i | SUES FOR $12,941.50.
