Judge Lands made no secret OF his

covered, therefore. there is nothing
for the court to do other than to rec
ognize the fact that it might have
been the cause of an unfair decision.
If Berger were 70 be tried again it

JUDGE LINDSEY

Judge Ben b. Lindsey must go TO
Jail or pay a $500 fine because he re-
fused to tell the court in a murder
trial what a boy twenty years old had
confided in him. Judge Lindsey was
held in contempt of court, and such
ruling has been sustained.
Upon hearing of the affirmance of
the judgment Judge Lindsey said that
he would rather go to Jail than
'snitch" on a kid.
AS far as the law is concerned the
decision is wise one. Many believe
communications" that there are too
many cases where one is not Obliged
W testify because of the relations
existing between two persons Many
believe that the truth should be
brought to light under all circum.
stances; that everyone should be COM
PEELED to tell all that is known about
a crime or Il criminal. Technically,
the decision follows this principle
and IL is probably the best principle
III the greatest nutnDeT OF cases.
But the attitude of Judge Lindsey
explains the reason for his great power
i'm the right direction among kids"
They believed in him. Many have been
brought before him in Juvenile Court
and many are the lives he has been
able to straighten out just because
they have believed and trusted in him.
Evidently he would prefer TO retain
that trust, even though he must suffer
personally because of it, than to have
the kids know that. in even one in
stance, he had betrayed one of them.
Thus a man who has come in con-
tact with more young criminals-if
lad may be said to be a criminal
ever-than perhaps any other man
in this country. believes thoroughly
in the good that may come from Oh
tanning the trust and confidence of
the young. Men and women who do
not occupy an official position such
as Judge Lindsey'a would do we'll To
follow his example. When once the
confidence of the young lad or girl is
obtained: when that confidence is
never abused. there is no end to the
good that one may do IL so inclined.
