teach provided they are individually
as efficient in their work as unmar
ried women.
One of the best arguments in sup
port OF the employment Of married
women as teachers is contained in
letter written by Portland WON
an and published recently in the
Oregonian. This woman's sentiment
is that a married woman who is a
mother Is better able to understand
children than other women.
There seems to be but one condi.
ton under which married woma''

When the people of Alaska feel

are not treating them unfairly in a

in other ways take control of things

to send any business representative

THE "PUBLic DEFENDER"

Some of the Outside newspapers
are devoting much editorial space
to comments about the new city of,
fetal, known as the public defend
err" that has been appointed in Los
Angeles. The public defender in
that city will protect the legal in
terests OF men and women accused
Of violating city laws. just as the
city prosecutor. on the other hand,
will prosecute them.
In other words. the man or woman
arrested in Los Angeles hereafter for
violating city laws, If unable to meet
the expense of defense, will have
the protection of an experienced at
torney without cost, provided he or
she wants such services.
1t has always been customary for
the public to pay for legal services
in criminal cases for unfortunates
who have been accused of crime and
are unable to hire attorneys. But
lnder usual methods, the court has
been in the habit Of appointing such
attorneys as would be present at the
trial. and it is seldom. indeed, that
a competent lawyer is thus employ
ed There is a class Of incompetent
lawyers who usually stay around A
court room to pick up such cases
as the court can give at public ex-
pense. and the poor man or woman
who gets such legal aid is often
worse off with an attorney than with
out one.
BY the new system adopted in Los
Angeles. TIE city appoints a compe-
tent attorney at good salary to off
set the work Of the city prosecutor,
and it seems that the system will
promote more justice for the poor
than the former system.
Commenting upon the new official
in Los Angeles. the Washington Post
makes editorial comment, in part.
as follows:
Recent establishment by the city
Of Los Angeles of a new office known
as the public defender the antith-
esis of the public prosecutor has
led to a very animated discussion
as to the propriety of having the
| state defend as we'll as prosecute
persons charged with violating the
law.
ut cannot be denied that a great
deal depends on the ability Of the
lawyer in all criminal cases. A
capable lawyer can win freedom for
a client where an inexperienced law
yer would fail Since 1t is generally
admitted that the rich should have
no advantage over the poor in the
administration of justice. is it not
incumbent upon the state to see to
it that the poor man has facilities
for obtaining the best legal talent
in his defense?

would be incongruous for the state

time. but II the purpose of the law

from selfish motives when it objects

1t is probable, too. that behind the

is trying through some underhand
method to keep the Democrats OF
Alaska from winning at this years

realize that under present conditions,

be chance for some independent

FAIR EXHIBITS.

1t is to be regretted that the
Tanana Valley farmers did not know
before they planted their crops that
they would be called upon to provide
ext ibits for the San Francisco ex'
position for next year. for 1t would
have given them an opportunity TO
have planted many things especially
for the exhibit that it is now too
late to plant.
However, 1t is not by any means
too late to prepare for an excellent
exhibit and the farmers should be
given all the encouragement possible
in their efforts to make good show
ing for Interior Alaska.
