AGAINST
THE LAWS DELAY
Washingt0n Women Ques-
ton Delay of Executing
Nathaniel Green

Washington, May 1.-Women of WASH
ington went to the District of Columbia
court of appeals today with a protest
against the laws delay in the execution
of Nathaniel Greene, a negro convicted
and sentenced to be hanged for assault
ing Mrs Adelaide Grant. The crime was
committed last Christmas night almost
in the shadow of the dome of the ma
tional capitol. Greene was sentenced TO
die March 25 but has been reprieved
twice. his counsel lighting for a new trial
on the ground that the court erred IN
refusing to accept a plea OF guilty which
would have made the negro immune from
the death penalty.
The women urged amendment of the
statute which provides that unless the
jury recommends capital punishment in
assault cases the maximum penalty shall
be 30 years in prison Pending an
amendment to the law said the petit
TONERS, I'VE women Of Washington are
dependent for protection upon the inter

to influence your decision we most ar
dently desire to protest against an ex-
tended hearing on technical grounds
