"Guilty but Insane"

Brooklyn Eagle: The decision of a
committee of the state bar association
to recommend such a change in the
law that in the case of any person
accused of crime the jury may be free
to render a verdict guilty, but in
sane," will commend itself to popular
judgment everywhere. The speculat-
i've question of moral responsibility
on the part of an insane person for
acts done need not be permitted to
confuse court proceedings, and weaken
law enforcement as it does now. If
the court tells the jury that a certain
act is criminal, and the jury decides
that John Smith has committed that
act, conviction should be inevitable.
If the jury thinks that the accused
was morally irresponsible, it may
properly say so, and this ought to
affect not the term of imprisonment,
but the prison hospital treatment of
the convict.
1t is hoped that the change, if en-
bodied in our statute law, will lessen
the number of habeas corpus proceed
ings, there being no argument left for
release on the ground of insanity. This
seems to be a rational anticipation.
Our law makers have been very chary
about limiting the operation of habeas
corpus writs, and properly so, since
historically and logically the habeas
corpus is the protection of every citi-
zen from unjust deprivation of liberty.
1t will be something to take away the
motive for most such proceedings in
the case of persons regularly convict
ed of crime.
It is safe assumption that human
itarian considerations will goverY the
treatment of insane persons in pris-
ons. 1t should do so. But those
whose insanity takes the form of
crime cannot safely be at large in any
community.

Ruling on Actors Income Tax

New York Times: The special rul
ing of the treasury department as to
the Withholding of l per cent of act
ors' salaries at the source to meet the
income tax has been made with COM
mendable promptness and will pre-
vent much confusion. An actors in
come, like all other mems, is taxable
under the new law when it exceeds
$4,000 yearly, if he is married to
dependent wife, or $4,000 yearly If he
is single. But all theatrical contracts
are terminable at two weeks notice.
If a play fails, an actor who has
been employed at a salary of S400
or $500 a week may be left without
any income for many weeks. 1t is
manifestly unjust to withhold at the
source from the pay OF such an actor
! per cent of his income. At the end
of any year he may find that his
income is too small to be taxed, and
he will be put to much unnecessary
trouble to secure the return of money
paid to the government. On the other
hand, there is little danger that any
actor with taxable income will con-
trive to evade the tax. Theatrical sal
aries are easily discoverable. They
are not always as large, to be sure,
as they are popularity reported to be,
but the internal revenue inspectors
will not be misled by rumors. The
actors life is all in the public gaze.
His earnings can be ascertained as
easily as the measure of his ability
or his drawing capacity. The new
ruling will doubtless apply also to
the percentages of a star, who may
be taking in money at the rate of
$4,000 year for a month or so,
and then have an eleven months en-
forced rest. The treasury departments
ruling classes the incomes of invent
ors and authors also among those that
are "indefnite and irregular" They
are, indeed. So few actors, authors
and inventors will be compelled tc
give up l per cent of their incomes
to the governments support that the
government would be almost as wei
supported if intellectual workers ol
these kinds were exempted from tax
alton.

As to Brazil's wisdom in encourag-
ing oriental immigration, the situation
in that land is quite unlike the situ-
alton in the United States. Despite
the very respectable size of its popu-
lation, now something over twenty
millions, there are still vast stretches
of territory practically uninhabited,
and there are several states which
have almost no people except along
the sea coast. Furthermore, Brazil is
by no means distinctly white mans
country. Less than half of the popu-
lation is even nominally Caucasian,
third are halfbreeds, a seventh ne
groes, and tenth Indians. Brazil is
therefore land with plenty of elbow
room for newcomers and racially it is
anybody's country. The Japanese la
borers who may be introduced are
likely to make much better citizens
than the negroes and the Indians, or
even the halfbreeds.

japanese in Brazil

Detroit Free Press: 1t is natural
that the influx of Japanese laborers
into Brazil and other South American
countries should attract some uneasy
attention from the state department
in Washington, particularly since so
far as Brazil is concerned migration
is encouraged by both Rio Janeiro and
Toxic.
The movement, however, is distinct
ly outside the proper sphere of in
fluence of the United States and it
will be the part of wisdom in the
national capital to ignore it completely
and to turn its attention to matters
more pressing. 1t may be within the
province of the national government
to mix into the matter of Japanese
immigration into the United States,
but it has no concern whatever to do
with the attitude of other sovereign
states toward the subject. What Bra
zil may do is distinctly Brazil's own
business and the faint suggestion in
the Washington dispatches that the

More Pennle. Less Reef

Los Angeles Express: There is no
prospect of cheaper beef. Germany's
population has increased 16 per cent
in the last ten years. Her cattle have
increased but a per cent. The popu-
lation of the United Kingdom has in
creased 10 per cent. Its cattle have
increased but per cent. In Austria
the population has increased 10 per
cent in the last decade, while cattle
have increased only per cent. In
European Russia population has in
creased IA per cent, and meat sources
have decreased II per cent. Canada
has had an increase in population dur
ing the decade of 35 per cent, and the
increase of cattle on her great prairies
has been but 20 per cent.
Of South American sources, Brazil,
while increasing her population in the
ten years 20 per cent, has suffered a
loss of 20 per cent in cattle. Argen-
tina, while gaining 40 per cent in
population, has neither gained nor
lost in beef supply.
New Zealand has gained 80 per
cent in population and her cattle have
increased only 16 per cent. Australia
is a hopeful exception, for while gain
ing 1S per cent in population she
has increased her herds 40 per cent.
France has increased in population 2
per cent and her cattle have increased
8 per cent. The United States has in
creased 20 per cent in population in
the decade and her cattle have fallen
off 80 per cent.
This includes all the great meat
countries, and in the aggre-
gate shows an average gain in popu-
lation of 205 per cent and an avera-
age gain in cattle production of but

He Does Not Own
Air Over His Land.
(By United Press Associations,


Paris, Dec. 22.-There can be own
ership of the air, according to an i'm
portant decision of the court of ap-
peals rendered today at Amiens. At
Lamotte- Breuil, near Compiegne, the
Clement-Bayard Company built a
hangar for its airships. M. Coqueral,
a Compiegne speculator, purchased a
tract of land in front of the entrance
to the hangar and tried to sell it to
the airship company, which refused
to buy it on account of the alleged ex-
orbitant price asked. The owner built
about his property fifty-foot board
fence topped with twelve-foot iron
spikes, covering the ground inside
with barbed wires and sharpened
spikes.
One of the Clement-Bayard army di-
rigibles came to grief on the spikes
and in suit which followed Coquerel
was ordered to remove the obstacles
and pay for the damage done thereby.
The court of appeals today upheld
this decision.

the St. Francis hotel lying asleep on
a doorstep with her head on muff.

WARRANT ACCUSES

k|caraguan Dictator Executed
Two Americans in 1909.

Washington, Nov. GA warra ut
for the arrest of Jose Santos Zelaya,
formerly dictator Of Nicaragua, charg-
ing him with the murder of the two
Americans, Cannon and Groce, has
been issued by Attorney General Nc
Reynolds at the request of the gov
eminent Of Nicaragua and Secretary
OF State Bryan.
The warrant has been forwarded
to New York, where federal officers
will endeaVor at once to serve it
upon the former Nicaraguan presi-
dent. Since his arrival in this coun-
try a few weeks ago Zelaya has been
at the Waldorf Astoria.
The action of the administration is
regarded as further evidence Of the
manner in which President Wilson IN
tends to deal with the turbulent ele-
ment in Latin-America. 1t is like
wise another endorsement of the
Knox policy toward Nicaragua and
her troubles, Mr. Bryans predeces-
scr having driven Zelaya from his
seat of power and begun the task of
setting the weakened and stripped re-
public on its feet.
The charge is the result of the en-
ecution in 1909 Of Leonard Groce and
Leroy Cannon, when Zelaya was die
tator of Nicaragua.
