Some people seem to think 1 should hear the boys in the after- noon, render my decision at night and have them hanged next day. It is my duty to hear evidence in mitigation and | shall give all time necessary to hear all such evidence. It is manda- tory upon me to do so. Thousands of student, the next along in last March Leopold, in dis- cussing his superman group of friends, asserted that the he noticed nothing unusual in his conduct.

The scheme employed by the Springfeld, Mass., cominission re- celving particular attention as mem- bers of the local comimit(ee have visit- ed that city and made a first hand in- | vestigation into its working. After the discussion, a committee of .five was appointed to make further study of the various methods. Chairman Saul P. Waskowitz. pre- sided at the meeting and expressed himself' as being in faver of cutting down the personnel of the commis- sion. He said that as it now stands, it is too large and unwieldy, contain- ing a number of members who do not attend any of the mectings and who display no interest in the work. The duties of the commission as outlined in the. city charter could be done by fewer men providing they were inter- ested in the work, he said, and there would. be bettér opportunity for co- operation between the members. He quoted Mayor Paonessa as in favor of a charter amendment reducing the size of the eommission. It was brought out that there. was a great deal to be done by.the com- mission and that it will be necessary to undertake things in a systematic manner if proper results are to be expected. It was voted to appoint a committee that will make investiga. tions and report back to the full com- mittee early in September. Chair- man - Wasgkowitz appointed F. O. Rackliffe, Harry G. Hancock, John J. Higgins and Henry 8 Walter to act with him, Chairman Waskowitz said-that as soon as the commisgion has agsembled sufficient data, it will be submitted to the city council with a request for an appropriation for the carrying on of the work. An appropriation must be made if the commission is to function, he said. Mhmediately atter. the adjournment the newly appointed committee was called to order and it was declded to get in touch with.concerns engaged in city planning work, and invite them to send representatives to look over local conditions and make recommendations. SHENANDOAR IS FLYING FOR NARRAGANSETT BAY Giant Dirigible Teaves Lakehurst in Trip to Rhode Island for Test. Lakehurst, N. J., Aug. 8.—The na- val dirigible Shenandeah left her mooring mast at 10:30 daylight time today and driven on by a west wind at the rate of 45 miles an hour, Leaded for Narragansett Bay, R. I, where she will be moored to the moor- ing mast aboard the U. 8 8. Patoka for a test of the mobile anchorage. The flight to ‘Narragansett Bay is eaid ordinarily to require about three hours,. but air station' officials said that the strong rear wind probably would shorten the flying time consid- erably. The big crulser is in command of Lieutenant Commander Landsdowne and carries a erew of 37 enlisted men. One.army officer and one civillan ‘also are on board. It weather conditions stay favor- able the Shenandoah will remain an- chored at the Patoka's mast three days and nights in order thoroughly to try its stabllity ond the effect of mobile mooring upon the airship's dura-aluminum frame. If the mast proves satisfactory .in later move- ments of the United States navy fleet, in which the Shenandeah is expected to participate, the Patoka will be her sea anchorage.
