Paul Chapman
Saved; Is Given
Life Sentence
Governors Communication
Cheers Youth, but Fills
Mother With Grief

ALBANY, Nov. 3O.-The sentence of
death imposed upon Paul Chapman,
youthful Brooklyn choir boy, for COM
plicity in the murder of Harry Regens
berg, a Brooklyn cigar store proprietor,
was commuted to life Imprisonment by
Governor Whitman to-day. The time
for Chapman's execution had been tix,sl
by the Court Of Appeals for the weH
beginning January 6
The Governor, who gave out no pre-
rared memorandum in announcing his
been granted solely because of the
prisoners youth. Chapman was slight
ly more than sixteen wears old when he
was convicted, last February.
Governor Whitman said he had gone
over the record of the case carefully
He said he had no doubt Of the guilt
Of Chapman nor of the fairness of his
trial.
The murder for which Chapman's life
was at stake until to-day was commit
/ ted on the night Of October %, 1917,
when, it was testified at the trial,
! Chapman and companion were rob-
bing Regensburg, who was shot and
killed.
Though official notice of the commu-
tation of sentence has not been re-
ceived at Sing Sing, Chapman was told
the news yesterday.
First Thought of oMther
at will be good news for my mother "
he said. 81 never thought ! deserved
TO be sent here to the death house, be-
cause I did not fire shot. This is the
best news | have ever received, and
| I'm very glad of it,"
The news did not come to Chapman
as complete surprise, for the Rev
A. NJ Peterson had told him that his
commute the sentence before the end
of the week.
To Mathew W. Wood, his attorney
and to his mother the Communication
came not only as surprise, but as q
great disappointment
Governor Whitman last week had
told a Tribune reporter that he in
tended to commute the sentence to
twenty yers, and that Mrs. Bahrenburg
Paul's mother, might be so notified
The little woman was almost overcome
with relief and emotion when Informed
of this expected executive clemency
She was at the newspaper Office Friday
waiting for confirmation of the report
Stunned With Grief
When the news came yesterday that
| the Communication was not to twenty
years but to life Mrs. Bahrenburg was
stunned with grief. When she was
finally able to talk she could only say:
81 am grateful for what the Governor
has done, but Paul is such a bay fear
he would almost rather have died.
had firmly believed the Governor would
! be more lenient" "
Mr.. Wood said he was disappointed,
and. while grateful for even this leni-
ency on the part of the Governor, felt
that Mr.. Whitman had acted prema-
turely in not waiting for petitions
which had been coming in to Mr.. Wood
daily.
There are already more than 10000
more than half of which ask for 8
complete pardon, and notone suggests
life Imprisonment. In the case of a
boy such as Paul, Communication to life
/ Imprisonment is almost equivalent to
death. l am sure that this sentence
does not meet with the approval OF
those interested in the case

favorable commutatjon Indeed, had
expected that the boy would not re-
ceve more than twenty years at the
most"

cal Boys Serving In Trench
es "Over There"

As you walk along the streets Of Nor
gan City any evening you probably
notice the absence Of many facA which
a year ago were quite familiar. Many
Of them-bright, ambitious, smiling
young chaps-haye quit the pursuits Of
civil life to don the armor Of the sol
dier to help fight the battle for liberty
and humanity. A number Of them have
already crossed the Atlantic and some
of them are, no doubt, at this very mo-
ment in the front-line trenches or help
ing drive the Teuton forces back. Their
smiles, we hope, have not disappeared
but grim determination has steeled their
hearts to do their bit to wipe the last
vestige of "kultur' and Prussian mill
tarism from the face of the earth.
You and I want to bring these boys
every one Of them safely back home.
We want them back again as part Of
our daily life, even if we cannot boast
of service flag in the window, denoting
vacant chair at the table.
But before we can expect to see them
again we must see that they are properly
fed, clothed and furnished with the guns
and ammunition to accomplish the task
they have set out to do. Morgan City s
quota for the Fourth Liberty Loan is
$4,000 or U4O 800 bonds. If you
will buy but two of these 500 bonds the
money will place 5000 machine gun rifle
cartridges in the hands Of some young
American gunner-very likely a Morgan
City boy. These cartridges will not only
help to lessen the total of fighting Huns,
but protect him from attack and make
his return more sure.
Make your your contribution-no, not
contribution, just loan-at least s.
900 cartridges. Then buy another 800
worth Of bonds to make it 5000 more.

Gulf Division
A. R. c.
Change To Take Affect In De-
cember of This Year When
Great Membership Drive
Is Inaugurated

Meeting the views of National Head
quarters, the division La, decided that
beginning with the membership drive that
will take place in December, 1918, the
membership year shall be the calendar
year. BY adopting this policy the Amer
lean Red Cross will call on the public
only twice year; once for money for
relief work and once for membership.
This new policy will also relieve the
chapter of a great deal of work and ex-
pense of looking after renewals of mem
berships. Memberships will all expire
and be renewed at one time. All mem
bers admitted during the course of the
calendar year should be given to under
stand that payment of dues only applies
to remaining portion of calendar year,
it being understood that amount of dues
are not to be pro rated, that is, the same
amount shall be paid for part of the
year as for the whole year. Life and
Patron members can, of course, be taken
in at any time.
To chapters that have memberships ex-
piring between now and next drive, we
would suggest that they carry such mem
bers withou payment of dues until the
next drive, explaining to the member our
object and that in the final analysis they
are only paying few months in advance
and that we will in the end carry them
for the full period paid for.
