DEFENCE OF JUDGE WHITLEY.
American Asiatic Association Addresses Let
ter to House of Representatives.

The judiciary Committee Of the House of Rep
resentatives is asked TO refrain from casting as
pensions the judicial character and methods OF
Judge Wiley. of Shanghai. in letter sent by the
executive committee Of the American Aslatic As
sociation and made public yesterday.
The letter is addressed TO Representative John J.
Jenkins chairman Of the Committee on Judiciary.
II urges the committee TO withhold its approval
from those portions Of the report of its sub-com-
that the committee fully discharged its duty in
finding that the charges if supported by legal
evidence. furnished no ground for Impeachment Of
the Judge.
The communication asserts that a gross injustice
has been done 10 the judge censuTing indiscrim-
inately his without giving him hearing.
that members Of the Asiatic association who have
observed Judge Wilfeys methods have been
strongly impressed with the value OF his services
and that he merits the respect and gratitude OF
every respectable man and woman within the juris
diction OF his court.
Regret is expressed by the writer's that the sub
committee of the Judiciary Committee should
have found it necessary. in the most arbitrary
fashion. 10 assan the character and impugn the
Judgment Of a public servant who has earned the
approval all decent Americans IN the Far East
The hope is voiced that the judiciary committee
viii not become party to the palpabIe injustice
Of melting out condemnation without trial or hear
ing and VIII not fatally weaken the administration
Of American justice in Shanghai by giving color
