Fletcher has defeated Cement twice

TN these days there is too
much bewilder7nent in a va
riety Of amusements and
great danger in confusing pleas
ure with excitement and making
it a pursuit. No matter what
the cost may be. in health, time
or money. pleasure is pursued
with a sustained effort and en-
ergy worthy of better aims, and
in spite of difficulties, obstacles
and dangers to life and, it may
be said, to manners and morals.
For with this rage for amuse-
ment has come the temptation to
lower moral standards This
seems to be the besetting sin
Of society, 1t aff1icts the young
er generation as well as the old
err. In fact, the danger is espe-
cially to the young people.
Youth is the time for gaining
ideals, fixing standards. Parents
can give an enduring happiness
to their children by keeping them
unhampered by too many pleas
ures, too many opportunities, too
much theater going, too many
rushing trips abroad, too lavish
an expenditure of money.

A PUBLIC DEFENDER.

Editor The Georgian:
In my opinion the very inter
esting suggestions OF Mr.. f. A.
Jones, appearing in your issue
OF Saturday, relative to County
Attorneys, might be added to in
the following respects with great
benefit to our procedure. the en-
forcement OF law, and the proper
protection OF our people:
In abolishing the present Of
nee OF Solicitor General with it's
too large field Of several coun-
ties. let there be in each county
instead not only a Public Prose
cutor, but q Public Defender as
well. This would assure every
person accused OF crime an equal
opportunity with the State OF
making proper presentation OF his
case in the trial court
Then let It be further provided
that should the defendant engage
additional counsel that the State
engage similar assistance at an
expense equal TO that OF the de-
PENDANT, the cost of this add
tional counsel on both sides to be
paid by the losing party, that
is. by the State if the defendant is
acquitted, and by the defendant
IL be Is convicted.
Thus again would equality be
assured, in so far as possible, be
tween the State and the defend
ant in the presentation OF their
cases, and the tremendous advan-
tage enjoyed by the wealthy Grim
inal under our present procedure
would be done away with.
This system would inevitably
abolish in the trial OF important
criminal cases. many Of the de-
lays encountered at present. II
would work justice in making
the guilty person pay the added
cost Of his own conviction. and
in relieving the innocently ac-
oused or the burden Of expense he

is now invariably forced to bear
in establishing his innocence.
Both prosecutor and defender
should, of course, receive equal
compensation, and when the de
PENDANT desired additional attor-
neys he should be required to
make a. good bond to the State
TO indemnify it against such ad-
ditional cost should he be con
victed. The counsel engaged by
defendants should be required to
make affidavit as to the amount
of their compensation.
