London, Nov. s.-The Daily News to.
DAY exclusively surveys the concen-
tration camps in South Africa with
the following conclusion.
THE truth is that the death rate in

anything Africa or Asia can sbnw.
There is nothing to match It even in the
mortality figures Of the Indian famlnes.

this assertion
The governments advertisement for
teachers for the camp children, setting
forth that the term OF employment

replied that 1t was. and counsel for de-

Judge Powers then read from long

tending to show that when one person
solicits another to commit crime
against the first person, he cannot
complain.
ATTORNEY STEWART REPLIES.
Attorney Stewart replied to Judge
Powers argument and argued that the

Tense discussed cases In no way SIM

Counsel then proceeded to argue that
the city, nor officer Brown could be
held party TO the crime for the reason
that II was no crime to purchase the

to sell II without license.
The attorney then cited authorities as

He is enthusiastic over everything he

Even though labor is scarce and I'M

profits from the sugar production will
be ample. Mr.. Studniczka was given
every courtesy and opportunity by the

plantations on this island and can see
no reason, after careful investigation,
why the output of sugar in the entire
