professional ambitions as a singer, but

years.
When George W. Lederer and his
company visited Philadelphia with q
musical comedy several years ago, Mr..
Hull obtained his first job In the thea :

NO CHANCES
Executed Men In Chicago
Must Stay Dead
COULD COMMIT CRIMES
Then They Would Escape Prose-
cuted, Say Judges and Law
Experts
UNITED Press Dispatch

Chicago, ILL.,, Aug "A man legal
ly executed, pronounced dead, and
then revived by means of a pulmotor
could commit any crime known to
law, and not be liable to prosecution
and legal punishment. The law
couldn't recognize his existence. He
might walk into the court room OF
the Judge who sentenced him
and kill the judge who pronounced
his fate and no hand could be laid on
him.
On the other hand, he would have
no protection under the law no mat
ter what offense might be comitted
against him.
Phase OF Legal Question
This is one Of the phases of the le-
gal question that has been brought
up since the attempts to resuscitate in
to life the bodies of Sam Carnella and
Nick Viana,, murderers hung here
recently. The law is taking no
chances now, and bodies are being
held several hours by the authorities
after hanging an hour before they
are turned over to the dead mans
family.
Chicago jurists are divided over
the status of a person who might be
thus revived.
Judge Hugo Friend and Judge
David Brothers take the stand out
lined above.
Would Free The Men
Assistant State Attorney Lloyd
Heth declared such a complication
would free the man. HE could walk
out of the morgue, and the law
couldn't touch him. But he couldn't
marry and couldn't vote. If he were
beaten up by a citizen, the citizen
couldn's be punished for anything
more serious than cruelty to animals
There was an old theory that if
the rope broke, the law was fulfill
ed and the man couldn't be hung
again." said Judge Harry Fisher.
'"That idea is not according to mod
ern law. Either he's dead or alive"
