| In May william RAIDER, n special CORE
spondent OF the EVENING LEDGER. visited
| Frank in his cell in Atlanta. In an artl-
Gle he wrote following the visit he told
of the bitter feeling against Frank in
Atlanta, and prophesied that "if by
chance Frank should be pardoned, 1t
would require a regiment of soldiers to
defend him against n mob" a prediction
which afterward came true.
Frank said to Mr. RAIDER at this time:
at is a misft. 1t is impossible to fit
such a man as 1 am into such a bloody
deed"
The writer described Frank as busi-
nesslike, straightforward, reassuring type
of man, who impresses you as one ca
pable OF tackling a big job and getting
away with it." He impressed his inter-
viewer as Il dapper, well-dressed little
man, smoking a cigar and wearing pat
ent leather shoes
HE reminded me of Theodore Dur
rant, the San Francisco boy. who COM
mitted the crime of the century'-this
young, cheerful, but nervous Leo Frank"
wrote the EVENING LEDGER correspondent.
He noted Franks nervousness especially,
for he referred to II several times dur
ing the course of his article.
He commented on what appeared to be
a spirit of hospitableness in the Atlanta
jail and said that Franks manner was

HE greets you as a hotel clerk well

TO get It just right, and spells 1t audibly
He thrusts his hand through tho iron
bars, gives you tight grip and pene-
trates you with pair of eyes which are
capable of both the stare and the sting.
He was dressed with simple neatness.
As he said of himself: Il am clean and
comfortable and take great care of my
dress | like clean linen ana good clothes
and a BATH
Frank wore a pin that tastefully
matched his tie. white shirt and dark
trousers. patent leather shoes, He smoked

By JOHN M. SLATON

Ex-Governor Of Georgia, who commuted
Franks sentence to life imprisonment.
EVERY good man and woman in
Georgia will condemn this cowardly abb
duction. The English language is not
strong or broad enough to designate this
outrage appropriately. 1t is an attack on
civilization.
81 know Georgia well enough to believe
that every power of tho State will be
brought to bear to punish the malefactors
who have so disgraced the Common

TT is Il great calamity for the state of

foul murder are promptly punished the
State is disgraced in the eyes of the civil

was travesty upon justice. It will in
