SUPREME COURT
TAKES DRASTIC
ACTION
Decision is Rendered
That Will Prevent
Unnecessary Delays
in the Execution Of
Death Sentences

Columbia, Nov. 3-Granting a
new trial to Cliff Hawkins, Of
Greenville, who. has twice had SEN
tence Of death passed upon him
for the murder Of William Morgan
in 1920, the supreme court Of
South Carolina today handed down
decision making drastic changes
in the procedure to be followed in
view to preventing unnecessary de-
Jays in execution.
The order provides that, after
the supreme court has once af-
firrped a death sentence Of the low
.er courts, the defendant can not.
obtain the benefit Of a motion for
new trial on the ground of af-
ter discovered. evidence, the only
course then open, except with the
consent of the state supreme
court. If there be no sitting OF
that court between the day Of sen SEN
fencing and the date set for the
electresution, the defendant must
secure from the governor a tenn
porary reprieve to give him oppor-
tunity to present his case to the
court. The granting Of therepraeve
is optional with the chief execu-
tive. Heretofore, circuit judges
have granted a new trial on the
ground of additional evidence, af-
ter the supreme court had sus-
tanned a sentence Of death.
Hawkins was first sentenced to
die on October /, 1920, by the
court of general sessions at Green
vile. His attorneys served notice
of an intent te appeal, which ac-
ton automatically stayed the exc
cution. The appeal was argued in
the fall of 1921 and was decided
against Hawkins. He was resen-
fenced to die April Z, 1922. His at
torneys then appeared before Cir
cult Judge T. j. Mauldin and made
a motion for new trial, on the
ground Of newly discovered eyi-
dence. Judge Mauldin refused TO
grant the motion. Saying: he was
without jurisdiction, as the mo-
ton was made in chambers, but
granted a. stay Of execution. Haw-
kins appealed from this order but
later abandoned the appeal, and
his attorneys appeared before
Judge Mauldin in open court. and
there renewed their motion for a
new trial. This time, il was grant
ed. The State of South Carolina APP
pealed from this decision, and il
was this appeal which was decid-
ed today by the supreme court.

IN { n 81 A n D
tBy Associated Press1

London, Sept. 2 American
VISITORS to London, especially
prominent ones, are inclined to
say pleasant things to their hosts.
ana Engllshmen are not 6isin-
cllned to listen. The latest ex
ample OF this was given by Gov
ernor Cox, Of Ohio, who is quot
ed by the Daily Mail as saving
some very pleasing things about
London as city.
But would it not be better all
around, asks the Daily Chronicle.
II they would give us some con-
s1ruct1ve criticism? Lamentiny
the frequency Of accidents en
London streets this paper saws ::
Why doesn't London initiate
New York, which now leads the
world in traffic regulations? Ie
IS perhaps too much to hope for
the system Of signal-bores. sema
phores and colored lights that
make Fifth Avenue a model oc
safety and Efficient traffic regu
latlon. But at least we~ could
follow New York s example IL
1orbldding pedestrians to cross
the roadway at dangerous cross
ings until the point policeman
has arranged a fairway and given
permission to cross. This rule it
SO strictly carried out that even
the New York messenger boy does
not infringe it.
Another rule that is univer-
sal IN America and Canada COM
pels all motor traffic to stop dead
until a tramcar has discharged
and taken up its passengers and
started off again. Why this
rule is not adopted in England it
IS impossible to imagine-''
1t is nice to have Americans
come here and throw lovely bou-
quets at us, said an English
writer, "but [ think they would
do us more good if they occas-
lonally told us point blank Of
some Of the things they find
wrong with us. This mutual ad
mlration business that goes on
now IS not good for either Of us. -

H|sTO RIG BELL IN
GERMANY SUCCESSFULLY
REP A | RE D
iBy Associated Press,

Ber:,n, Sept. 26.-The huge
cell IN. the cathedral tower on
the former imperial palace
grounds, which cracked while
to1llng out the death Of the form
er empress, will ring again after
a year CT silence. Like America s
Liberty Bell, it went mute be-
cause OF a rent sustained while
commemoratihg an historical
event.
The great mass of metal has
just undergone welding which
market the first attempt of its
kind in German science. The
crack measured 800 millimeters
III length and required 45 kilo-
grams Of metal to fill it.
It was estimated that to re-.
move the bell and transport i;
to Alpona Of Lubbock, where Ger
many s only recasting works arc
located, would cost more than
100000 marks. Further, sent;-
ment precluded installing a new
bell fo., one which had done ser
vice since 1471 when it original
~ graced the Wilsnack monas-
terry. Consequently, a firm -un-
dertook to repair it within it's
own tower.
The bell was lowered from its
support to the floor Of the tower
room and there subjected to a
welding process Of acetylic oxid-
izing' under a heat Of 1,4OO de-
grees. Experts hold that its
"voice' will recover all Of the
old-time clearness when the nee
essary operations Of repolishing
