POLITICS III
81 JANIS B. NEVTN XIV

If attorneys generally in Georgia
fully understood that to make last
minute applications for respites and
clemenCy in capital cases, after DELHI
erately disregarded opportunity to APP
pear before the Prison Commission
actually prejudiced their cases in the
executive eye and raised inevitably a
presumption of questionable methods
less would be less Of that sort OF
thing in the State.
That Governor Slaton feels very
strongly and deeply the injustice to
him frequently involved in these last
minute appeals, is not doubted in the
least by those who talk with him up
on that subject from time to time
Recently an attorney appeared be-
fore the Governor In behalf of a
client condemned to death and asked
respite, Notwithstanding the fact
that the criminal concerned had been
under sentence of death for two
months and his sentence affirmed, and
two meetings of the Prison Board
had been lightly passed by without
any word as to ClemcnCy being ut
tered. And it is a matter Of record in
Georgia that one criminal was respit-
ed seven times by the questionable
process of permitting Prison Board
meetings to pass and then appealing
to the Governor frantically at the la st
minute!
When an attorney deliberately per
mil % hn
Prison Board to pass without ac-
ton, and then rushes to the Governor
within few days Of the proposed ex-
eCution with a petition for "A respite,
the Governor not unnaturally thinks
he IS being trined with--or worse
There may be occasional extreme
cases in which these last minute ap-
peals have merit, but as a rule the
Governor views them with suspicion
and merely as attempts to gain a
little further delay in execution.
Occasionally a lawyer Informs the
Governor that he was 'in ignorsnce Of
the rule, and what the Governor then
says to that lawyer never makes him
feel at all comfortab BILE,
The Governor earnestly requests all
parties having clemency matters In
mind to obtain from the Prison Com
mission the rules governing the dis
position OF the same. He has stated
his very firm determination in the flu
ture to adhere strictly to those rules,
and not to vary from them save In the
gravest emergencies.
The Nashville Herald Predicts that
Congressman Randall Walker will
be re- elected to Congress without OPP
position but that hardly seems pos
sible with Senator w. l.. Converse, OF
Lowndes, actually in the race as an
avowed and open candidate, and with

PENDANT, who, If the postoffice inspec-
tors office hasn't got him down al

among the negro population of At

Frank Reed is the name given al
the inspectors department, and this is
the style Of his game.
Frank circulates around in Dark
town until he turns up a family
which answers both the following re-
quirements:
Requirements Simpler
% There must be son or
daughter or other near relative
living away from home.
90 There must be money in
the family, or the means Of rails
ing ii.
Here is a summary Of the latest al
legged escapade.
A family was found having a mar
Tied daughter living in Chicago. Reed
called on the family, explaining with
much feeling that he lived right
across the street from the daughter
and that she was in bad, the police
having arrested her and her husband
for sheltering unawares a girl who
was thief Reed said they were in
such close confinement that 1t was
impossible for them to write.
Generously Offers His Aid.
Then he outlined his plan. He, be-
Ing a brakeman, was on the run from
Chicago to Atlanta, wherefore he had
offered, in the goodness of his heart
TO help out the worthy and distressed
couple.
Money was needed Three hundred
bucks if that much could be had
Less, If not. Reed had much iniiu-
ence with the Chicago police, and he
could use the money to the best adj
vantage. But II was not to be In
trusted to him. Oh, no. He would
just take what money was available
put it in an envelope with a letter
written by the distressed parents, and
let them address it to the daughter
al the prison.
Fair enough.
Reed even Gin one instance) es-
Corted a worried relative to the post
office and got a stranger, white
man, TO address the letter

that there were two letters, one CON

with a good deal of success since last
June. Most of his victims were con-

planned By the postal authorities The
proposed weapon is the denial of the

An effort to stop this sWindling by
reliance upon a criminal cJprt has
proved ineffective. according 20 w. II.

Criminal proceedings are necessa-

means of appeals and other methods
the execution Of sentence are deferred
for periods during which the concerns
and individuals engaged in such fraud
ulent business continue TO reap har-
vest through their fraudulent enter
prises. In some cases. the penalty being
merely a fine, there was nothing to
pI event the parties conducting lhelr
schemes except fear of subsequent fines.
These they could Hasiiy afford to pay
in view of the large revenue derived
from the business
Mr. Lamar points out that a fraud
order Immediately cuts off the source
of supply of funds on which the
scheme largely depends for continue
ance and puts many prospective victims
on their guard by reason of the return

Miss Mccain was last seen by her
family when she left her home Deem

her father, a well to do buiness man
notified the police of her disappear
