The plea of temporary insanity is
one that Is employed with great fre-
quepcy in murder trials. and often
with success. It is potential as a
means of swaying juries, but as q
factor in the viBdication Of justice it
nav well be regarded with grave
suspicion. In cases where mental
abberration leads to the commission
of homicide, it is due 10 lhe security
Of society that The subjects Of such
attacks shall be reslrained to the ey-
tent OF preventing harm 10 persons

person who may become sufficiently
unbalanced to commit murder to-day
and regain sanity tomorrow is quite
as dangerous, aod even more so, thaa
