MALLORY WINS, “THE TRUTH ABOUT "HUSBANDS” Everyone Should See The PALACE Exposure e, NEW BRITAIN DAILY HERALD, FRIDAY, AUGUST 11, 1922, PISTOLS PLAY BIG PART IN MURDERS Bar Association Wonld Ban Sales of Them Unless Necessary San Francisco, Calif,, Aug, 11— (By the Assoclated Press.)-—Declar- ing that the pistol “serves no useful purpose in the community today,” the committee on law enforcement in its recommendations submitted to the American Bar Association last night one for thé prohibition of the manu- facture and male of pistols, and of cartridges or ammunition designed to be used In them, “save as such man- ufacture shall be necessary for gov- ernmental and offfclal use under proper legal regulation and control.” “We find that more than ninety per cent of the crimes in this coun- try are committed by the use of pis- tols,” continied the report of the committee, of which Judge Willlam B. Swaney of Chatanooga, Tenn., was chairman. “We find that the laws prohibiting the carrying of fire- arms or deadly weapons are {neffec- tive—in fact, that they work to the benefit of the criminal rather than the law-abiding clizen."” Other members of the committee were Judge Marcus Kavanagh, Chi- cago; former Governor Charles E. Whitman, New York; Wade H. Ellis, Washington, D. C.,, and Charles W, Farnham, of St. Paul. Crimes Growing. “The criminal situafion in the United States, so far as crimes of vio- lence are concerned, {3 worse than that of any other civilized country,” the report said. ‘“Here there is less respect for law. From all available gource of information, we estimate that there were more than 9,600 un- lawful homicides last year in this country; that in 1920 there occurred not less than 9,000 such homicides, and that in no year during the last ten vears did the number fall below §,600. In other words, during the last ten years no less than 85,000 of our citizens have perished by poisons, by the pistol or the knife, or by some othe unlawful and deadly instrument. “Burglaries have increased in " this country during the last ten years, 1,200 per cent. Criminal Usually Armed. “Deliberate murder, burgiary and robbery will seldom be attempted un- less the criminal i{s armed. Tn Europ- ean countries the criminals, as a rule, are not armed. “On the other hand, in crimes which indicate the dishonesty of the peopla, euch as larceny, extortion, ANNOUNCES A S BSTANTIAL counterfeiting, forgery, fraud and other erimes of swindling, a com parison of conditions demonstrates that the morals of this country are better than In any other of the large countries of the world “It 18 our united opinion that the means provided in the United Btates for coping with crimes and criminals are today nelther adequate nor effi- clent, for example: “First, we find that the parole and | probation laws as administered, very generally fall to accomplish the pur- poses for which the laws were de- signed and weaken the administra- tion of eriminal justice, We recom- mend that first offenders only shiould be eligible for probation. We rec ommend that the indeterminate en- | tence laws should be modified so as to apply to first offenders only, and we belleve, too, that neither proba- tlon nor parole should be permitted those convieted of homlelde, burg- lary, rape or highway robbery Pistols Are Murderous, “Second, we find that more than ninety per cent of the murders in this country are committed by the use of plstols. “Third, we find the causes for delay in ecriminal cases so varied and the conditions so differing that we hes| tate to make specific recommenda- tions. Dilatory motions and many other causes for delay, all accrue to the benefit of the law breaker “We recommend that every state he glven every right to appeal now en- joyed by a defendant—except from a verdict of not gullly, and we recom- mend that the prosecutor fn a crim- inal tria! shall have the right to call the attention of the jury to the fact that the defendant has falled himself to contradict or deny testimony offer- ed by the prosecution, ““We recommend that the state he given the right to amend the indict- ment upon proper terms, in matters of form. “We recommend that there should he but one appeal from a judgment of conviction in the triai court. “We recommend that there be en- acted legisiation limiting the time during which judges or courts may hold under advsement dilatory mo- tions made in criminal trials; that at the expiration of such time, withoue action, such a motion shall be deemed to be denfed. “Fourth, we find that in some of the states the jury is the final judge both of the law and the facts. We beljeve that such a condition s ab- solutely subversive of a government of law and we recommend the repeal | of such statutes. “Fifth, we find {n various jurisdic- tions glaring abuses in the matter of bail, both,in the amount fmposed and fn the sufficlency of security offered Prevent Lynching. “fixth, we find that further legis- lation, should be enacted by the Congress to punish and prevent | Judges | thy | inal courts, |action” {iustification lynching and mob violence Heventh, we find that more string laws lmiting and controlling fui- migration should be enacted and en- forced “Elghth, we find that the bill now pending in the congress, increasing | the number of United States Distriet | Judges and conferrng powers upon the Chief Justice and senlor eiremt| have supervision over the work of the courts and see that the dockets are kept clear, should be enncted “Ninth, no meritorious cage, whether | clvil or criminal, that s cognizable In the courts of the country, ought to be denied the services of an able, courteous and loyal advocate, And no man or woman, however humble lean community that justice is too| expensive for the poor, Westhere. | fore urge that in every community the members of this assoclation vol- | unteer to ald, without fee, the wor poor who are heing oppressed, defrauded or otherwise wronged, and counsel, “Tenth, first offenders must he seg- regated from veteran criminals, for the jalls throughout the land today are breeding places for crime, and | often he reclaimed, are taught by professional criminals to scorn the restraints of soclety; and in this con- nection we may well conslder the ex- tension of psychopathic lahoratories established as adjuncts to the crim- The committea algo proposed the establishment under the control the Department of Justice, of a fed. cral bureau of criminal statist Reform Growing Citing the “growing multiplicity of 1aws,” which he aseribed partly to “the increasing complexily of ad- vancing civillzation” and in part to “the attempt to raise the moral standard of soclety by legislation,” he sald the “spirit of reform is alto. gether encournging’ but “there needs to be a better understanding of the province of legislative and judicial and a “wider comprehension of the limitations of the law." here exists, and must alw Ve ex- t," he sald, “the righteous author- ity of the state. That is the gole source of the liberty of the individual, but it does not mean an Inquisitive and officious intermeddling hy at- affairs of the people. There is no for public interference with pyirely private concerns.” Mr. Coolidge compared the trend “for the hetter part of a century during which “the early amendments {were all in diminution of the power of the government and declaratory of an enlarged sovereignty of the peo- ple,” and the government “in the opposite direction” during “the past thirty years'" from the interstate com- merce act of the late elghties to the _|recently enacted*maternity aid Jaw, “This has not been a=complished without what is virtually a change in the form, and actually a change in the process, of our government,” he declared, adding that it had proceed- ed *on the theory that it wonld he for the public henefit to have govern- ment, to a greater degree, the direct ought to be able to say in any Amer- | ¢ who have not the means to employ | the young and thoughtless, who may | of | tempted government action in all the | 8 IN 257 MAIN »T, $3.95 Just arrived a large a 21l wear in Duveiyn, Taficta and Velvet.
