JUVENILE JUDGE LOSES HIs
SUIT IN Y. .. SUPREME
COURT.
CLOSE CONTEMPT CASE
MUST PAY FIVE HUNDRED DOL
LARS FINE OR SPEND ONE
YEAR IN JAIL.
Western Ns-,p.psr Union News series.)

Denver, Feb. AFTER fighting his
conviction for contempt to the highest
court in the land over a period Of five
years, Judge Ben B. Lindsey O; the
Juvenile Court lost unless leniency is
shown.
Hesmust pay $500 fine for refusal
to testify In the famous Berta Wright
murder case, concerning a statement
made in confidence by the woman's
son, or go to jail.
Whether the decision of the United
States Supreme Court confirming the
Colorado Supreme Courts affirmation
of the $500 fine imposed by Judge
John A. Perry of the Criminal Court
In 1915 actually means that Judge
Lindsey must go to Jail is considered
problematical by Denver lawyers.
They point out that the decision Of
the highest tribunal merely affirms the
Judgment of the lower court and thus
leaves to the present district attorney
and the present Judge Of the West
Side Criminal Court the responsibility
Of pressing the matter,
The personnel Of the district attor-
ney's office and the bench has changed
in the five years during which the
matter has been in litigation, and sa-
wants declare that it is not obligatory
upon either District Attorney Philip
Van else or Judge Warren A. Haggott
to enforce the penalty.
District Attorney Van Cise said 1t
"would be premature" for him to make
any statement regarding his action un-
til after the usual papers are sent by
the highest court to the Colorado Su-
preme Court and thence to the lower
court. The district attorney would be
required to make some recommends
ton in the case, once these papers
have been passed along, he said, but
that time may be month hence.
"The decision Of the higher court
does not in the least alter my personal
convictions in the matter" said Judge
Lindsey. II believe that it is the duty
of Juvenile judge to maintain the
confidence Of the boys and girls whose
stories are drawn out by him.
I'm many instances it is the promise
that their confidence will be preserved
that induces girls to give US informa-
ton that leads to the conviction of
those who have committed offenses
against them.
my course hereafter will be just as
1t has been in the past will refuse
to testify 4uncerning matters told to
me in conft1enea, preferring to take
jail sentence as the alternative.
"The question is of great import
ance, since it involves all the Juvenile
Courts in the country.
II understand from my attorney
who represented me in Washington
that the fact that the Supreme Court
did not considen this federal ques-'
ton was one of the reasons for the
decision against me-"
When the Colorado Supreme Court
few months ago amounted its !deci-
sion finally affirming the verdict Of
the lower court, the newsboys of Chi
cago started a movement to collect
$500 to defray the judges fine.
This movement was stopped at the
request Of Judge Lindsey, who said at
that time that he did not want to ac-
knowledge the justice Of the fine even
indirectly, but intended TO appeal the
matter further.
