Like the Chumberiain school tree. this one was donated by Deacon David Camp in 1914. Mr. Camp gave the school two trees, ome of which died, thereby leaving the im- pression that the Chamberlain schopl tree was the only one ’left in the city. The tree is in good condition due to watchful care. Its trunk is 6% inches and its height is 25 feet. 4 When the addition was built to the school, it was necesary to move the tree further out:from the build- ing because it was within four feet of the structure. During the fire at the school last year fear was feit for the safety of the tree but by luck the wind blew the flames awvay from the tree, Like the Chamber- lain school tree. boys have often climbed into its branches but have .

Orens-B.S.8 JONT NACHINERY FUNCTIONS POORLY Peansyivania Crime Commission Tnvestigates 44,000 Cases ‘Washington, June 11—The largest number of criminal cases ever stud- ied intensively by a single group— 44,000—was examined by the Penn- sylvania crime commission, which recently concluded its work. Every significant fact of recorded infor- mation concerning each one, from the time of arrest to the final dis- position was card-indexed hy field agents. The commisslon made no attempt to delve into the probiem of the re. lation of prohibtion to crime, ex- plaining that 1t was too large a subject to be xtudied in a short time. But it discoveerd that of the tolal number of cases held for the grand jury in Pennsylvania state courts, violation of liguor laws led with a percentage of 17. The next / Arges Study of Simbject “In cur opinion,” says *he com- mission, “it weuld certainly be worth dhile to look more deeply into this class of crime (liquor law violations), which numerically iz now the most important with which grand juries have to deal. Astonishment smote the commis- sion when it discovered that in the four cities where the subject was studied, 74 per cent of cases were eliminated in the preliminary hear. ing. Either the police were arrest. ing on totally insufficient evidence, it decided, or the lower court were failing in their duty through inef- ficiency or political expedicncy. The commission thinks it is worth study whethér grand jury hearings ought not to be dispensed with “except for inquisitorial pur- poses. 1t found that grand jurors eliminated 16 per cent of cases coming before them and that dis- trict attorneys had nol-prossed 16 per cent of cascs passed on to them by grand Juries. Tt took an average of 56 days to try and. convict a per- son accused, of which 46 were spent waiting for grand juries to meet and act. | | i the cemmimisn says, “that a large ‘of those who pleaded ‘not guilty’ would have been entitely satisfied to have been tried without a jury. This has been the exparience in other tates where the accused has been given the right to be tried before jury or before the court alome.” Delay, it in pointed out. s a prime factor in tme obstruction of Justice. Fifty per cent of major crimes in which criminals = were sentenced took 56 days or more from arrest to final disposition. Cases where de. fendants waived grand jury hea ings averaged 18 days and case: tried and acquitted took 80 days. Many indicted persons must stay in juil untl the final verdict, it s made clear, and better organization of the coutis’ working time prob- ably could cut down the period of waiting one half, reducing hard- ships of innocent people and pro ably increasing the number of con- ctions, Throughout Pennsylvania only 31 per cent of cases reaching the grand Jjury were punished, compared with 29 per cent in Chicago, 38 pef cent in New York city and 44 per cent in Milwaukee. The commission be- lieves the total number of arrests ERESTONE LEADERSHIP now brings you the greatest improvements ever built into tires.

Sees an Ecvmomic Waste “"We arc entirely too much com. cerned with those whom we do catch and convict,” the commiasion says. *“The machinery of criminal justice need not be only 13 per cent efficient, even when measured only by number of arrests.” In each 100 arrests for 29 major criminal offenses oniy eight persons were finally imprisoned or fined— *machinery for apprehension and trial for wajer crimes began action aganst 12 persons whom it did not punish for every ome whom it did punish.” All of which the commission de- scribes as a “huge social and eco nomic waste” and a condition tend ing to create ~ontempt for law.
