Powell of Atlanta, Presi- Gent of the Georgia Bar Association Judge Powell, in addressing the an ual meeting of the association, held at Tybee Island yesterday, electri- fied the members by his declaration . Im bitter opposition to hurried crim~- ina] trials and the National Prohibi- tion Law. To-day the State is di- vided as a result of his remarks. f Speaking in opposition to the Pro- Ribition amendment, Judge Powell gnid: “The Eighteenth Amendment, foist- ed upon the country when we were in the throes of the late war, will be- come a dead letter unless it was born of a wisdom which we do not now Beem to see, A statute lacking the support of public opinion cannot gen- erally be enforced. “Iam speaking now as an individ ual and not as the President of the SPE ne to agree with me, but it is my calm, deliberate judgment that nb enact- ment of such widespread viclousness, of such universally debasing effect on your law and the enforcement of it, of such potency in arousing disre- spect for law and the courts, ever before has been impressed upon our 2 SL AN ee me ee le. “Rum has its undoubted evils. The barrooms were intolerable nuisances. The influence of the whiskey interests in our politics was debasing to the last degree; yet in flying from there evils we have flown to worse. We were told that liquor was the cause of crime, that it made widows and orphans, that it was practically the sole author of poverty and distress. Have crimes decreased? Are there fewer widows and orphans? Is there less poverty and distress? “The history and natural effect of the passage and the enforcement of 4 drastic Prohibition law is to dimin- ish the number of petty crimes and to increase the number of felonies. Slight folly is oftentimes an anti- dote for crimo. “The wave of homicide which swept over Georgia on the passage of its Statewide Prohibition Law found its counterpart in the wave that swept the nation on the passage of the country-wide law. It is no exaggera- tion to say that where rum has slain its thousands Prohibition has slain \te tens of thousands.

There is some thing radically wrong in the law that cannot be enforced except at such tre- mendous moral cost." Replying to the concerted demand that has been made throughout the country, and especially in Georgia, for speeding up criminal trials, cut- ting of red tape by the courts, and the doing away of technicalities, Judge Powell said: “The demand for fewer teohnical- itles is of course merely the demand that in the administration of rights there shall be less law and more dis- cretion. The procedural technicalities with which the law surrounds prac- tice in the courts bears very much the same relation to the administra- tion of the law that conventionalities bear to social life, “Strip the law of technicalities, or social life of conventionalities, and the weak, the pure, the fair-minded and the good find themselves at once LL SE = San eer en Tra a ETT THE EVENING WORLD, FRIDAY, JUNE 2, 1922, victims of wiles and improper ad- vances which neither justice not so- ciety has found any other method of restraining As truly a8 convention- ait distinguish and protect the am ties of polite life from the inde- corum and vulgarity of the ill-bred and impure, 80 do technicalities dis- tinguish and protect the dignity and the majesty of the courts from the criminal, the brutal and the uneiviliz- ing spirit of the mob. “If there needs be a lynohing, let the mob do it; do not ask It of the court.
