I came to New York to see how the ‘four mill- jon’ lived and try to get a human in- terest swing to my tales. “I wanted to look beneath the sur- face into the lives of all classes of people—in short to dissect human nature in a great metropolis—to see at first hand the fairyland 1 had read about in novels and short stories, I was particularly interested In analyzing the emotions of criminals and wanted to get a close-up view of how they felt. I frequented police and tried to mix in’ the crewds there, but never could get close enough to hear what was going on, “So I decided to be arrested. It waa with that deliberate purpose that I went to the store. I wanted to see how it felt to be @ prisoner and to face the court, and decided that mhop-lifting would be as good a charge as any to have made against me. I am glad that I got my wish.” “Was It necessary for you to steal in order to become a writer?" the Court asked her. “It was the only way I could get the information I desired,” she re- plied, Mrs. Termatt was remanded until Friday for sentence, and in the mean while probation officers will in- vestigate her story. It was decided that Miss Cohn had nothing to ‘do with the case and she was released.
