WHY SHE DIFFERS.

California mixed juries have disagreed in recent
celebrated criminal trials because almost any y
men and women will disagree on sex questions.
That's the size-up by Edwin v Mckenzie prom
inent criminal lawyer on the Pacific coast
DO you agree with Mckenzie?
The cases he refers to have all been so-caIed
sex crimes They have involved moral issues OF
much discussed nature. Few people In the street
have agreed on them Only recently. three supreme
court judges in California were unable to agree on
the status of the eternal tranbe. Mixed jures in
volve the situation more"
Woman generally is either very liberal or very
strict on sex and morals. on this subject she forms
a very decided opinion, a personal code that she
sticks to through thick and thin
Men usually are tolerant more flexible IN
their viewpoint about the deviauons Of sex from
accepted normal
It is this fedbfity. often indifference. among
men that has compelled woman to formulate a
strict code of opinion for her own protection
So reasons McKenzie-that. in a sex trial women
jurors harder to sway from personal convictions
men more open to argument It's an interesting
biological opinion.
In these days OF frank sex discussion and psyche
analysis. argos Mckenzie jury is very apt to in
clude women of ultra-beral viewpoint also the
conservative minded.
He points out, there have been no such disagree
ments i'm California trials where there were no fine
points of sex morals.
The discussion emphasizes this dmculty or trial
by jury-that jurors usually inclined to give less
weight to law than to personal moral views and
self-created philosophy Of rules and regulations
that should govern sex questions
The very fact that women, by an average superior
moral character, inclined to disagree with male
jurors is one of the best arguments ever advanced
for including women a jury that hears triangle
or other sex case.
