(EDITORIAL) Mrs. Kate Mahoney was murdered, and the whole town talked about it for months. Herbert Pratt was crushed to death in an elevator shaft; his passing was barely noticed by the public. Yet Pratt was murdered just as surely as was Mrs. Mahoney, tho not with malice aforethought. The facts of the case, briefly, are as follows: In the Bell apartments, 2324 First ave., there’s a cleverly devised death 80. bee ina waver io tis baeteeal, you nto the pit and pull a rope. «hi oh back. If you are Fear enough to get out before the elevator comes down, all right. not— Well, Pratt wasn't ‘quick enough . . And his mangled body was found several hours later. The people of Seattle pay taxes to see that elevators are inspected. Presumably the Bell apartment elevator had been inspected. Presum- ably it had n inspected, also, when it claimed an earlier victim, simi- larly slain some months ago. Inspected and approved as “safe.” . What do you think? Was Jim Mahoney any quiltier than the people re ible for installing and retaining that elevator and those giving it official sanction?
