PROTECTION OF PRESIDENT
Assault on chief Exclusive 20 he "A
Capital Crime.

Capital Crime.
The special commission that has
been at work for several years codify-
Ing the federal laws. says the Wash
ingtOn correspondent OF the Phiiadel-
phla Ledger has completed i,s work
on the criminal code. with the single
exception Of an addition 20 the stat
utes providing penalties for an assault
on the person Of the president Of the
United States. The work Of the com
mission on the criminal laws and its
final report are In the hands Of the at
torney general. A draft has been made
OF the proposed amendment in regard
TO safeguarding the life Of the presi-
dent which will be submitted In a few
days. No little difficulty was found In
dealing with the matter. As the law
now stands, there is no more protec-
tion for the president than Tor the low
Hest citizen Of the land.
The commission went over all the
statutes OF the various states. and IL
was found that in a number Of states
the assailant Of the president in case
OF the presidents recovery, could not
be punished at all. Another point IL
that state law takes jurisdiction as
against federal law, and under the CON
stitution there is no way OF getting
around It. The commission has framed
an amendment 20 cover all territory
belonging to or controlled by the fed
eral government, such as sites OF post
Offices navy yards custom houses,
federal buildings, arsenals, forts, reser-
vations ana similar places.
a separate amendment also makes Il
a crime. punishable with fine Of
$1,000 or imprisonment commensurate
ly, 10 threaten the life Of the president
and capital crime 10 attack his per
son, The commission does not at
tempt to bring the crime OF attacking
the president under the head OF trea-
son. IL is recognized that In all the
assassinations that have occurred
there was no feeling against the indi-
vidual but the crime was against the
office. The amendment also provides
punishment for accessories before the
fact. This Is made TO cover those who
encourage violent intentions toward
the president and is intended to apply
TO anarct lists.
