MARIA BARBERPS SENTENCE

Perhaps it would be too much to say
that the sentencing of the New York
murderess, Maria Barberi, to death il
the electric chair makes her a better
risk" for the life insurance companies,
but it is a fact that very few women are
ever really executed, however many of
them may be sentenced. Providence
Journal.
So rare is such extreme crime among
the gentler sex that the contemplation
Of Maria Barberi's,f fate brings forward
forcibly, even to the unsentimental, the
shocking phase Of capital punishment in
any form. There is an added touch Of
pity in her case, for, horrible as was her
crime of slashing her b~etrayer's throat,
the trial clearly revealed her painful
lack Of any real conception Of the enor-
nifty Of the deed. In view Of her pitt
able betrayal and moral blindness the
law should have spared her from the
chair Of DEATH Philadelphia Record.
Speaking Of Maria Barberi, a CORE
spondent of the New York World asks,
but will the state kill a passionate and
wronged woman because she murdered
the man who wronged herr" Would
that we could answer, "No!" But the
Empire State, with all of its grandeur
