SCORES WHIPPING j
|. POST AS BARBAROUS

Bitter condemnation Of Delaware's
whipping post was made In the House
today by CONGRESSMAN Evans Of Mon
tana. He characterized the practice OF
corpora, punishment as 'cali OF the
wild taking possession Of the Della
ware authorities. and degrading society.
civilization and Christianity, revolt
ing to all the finer feelings and pas
sions of humanity"
The Montana representative prefacsd
his remarks with q high tribute TO the
press. Notwithstanding the decision
of Attorney General McReynolds that
the Federal statutes cannot be invoked
AGAINST the punishment of prisoners BY
the State" said Evans. Il feel THAI
a remedy win be found which VIII put
a stop to these practices.
Evans then launched into a direct at
tack on Delaware courts. saying:
There are millions OF people wno
ware has left undone. That is her IAN.
ure 10 keep abreast Of the times, and
abolish the last relic OF cruelty incor-
porated In her laws before even the
adoption of the constitution OF the
United States.
IT submit the question, Why Is a
womon not logged In Delaware? The
answer comes back, To hog woman

izens of Delaware would not permit II.
This proves that corporal punishment
is In direct violation of the best senti-
ment Of the country. whether the Fed.
cral statutes apply only to the Federal
Government or to the people OF the
Federal Government"
In conclusion. Evans said: The
whipping post not only degrades IT'S
victims. but society as well. When
YOU manacle a man to the post and
heat him across the back You make an
enemy to society. Malice and hatred
toward all the world are sown IN bis
heart. and sooner or later the seed
must bear fruit. No Grim was ever de-
TERED by the commission Of another
