JURY COMMISSIONER
DEFENDS HIS LISTS
O'Byrne, Taking Issue With
Judges, Lauds Personnel
of Panels.

Frederick O'Byrne. Commissioner or
Jurors Of New York county. stepped
into the judge and jury controversy yes
terday with a vigorous defense of both
the jury system and personnel of panels
There's nothing wrong with the jury
system and nothing wrong with the
Jurors" said Mr.. OByrne. "Our office
furnishes the courts with plenty or
Jurors and they are Of a splendid type.
They are family men for the most part
need of protecting the community"
The Commissioner termed as mere
condolences" the trouble last week
which caused three judges in Genera
Sessions to rebuke three different juries
discharging from further service two of
them and half the talesmen of the third
In each of these cases acquittals were
returned against the judgment of the
bench.
How Lists Are Selected.
Mr.. OByrne said the lists from which
jurors in New York county are selected
are prepared from the city directory,
the census, the telephone directory, the
blue book and the social register. He
pointed out that the use of the latter
two books ought to explode the theory
that persons of prominence are never
drawn for jury duty.
"They are business men or persons
in responsible positions" continued Mr.
O'Byrne. IT would consider them thor
oughly representative. of the community
Nothing can be said against the general
standard of jurymen-it is high"
Mr.. O'Byrne admitted that there were
many classes of persons exempt from
jury duty, but would not say that he
felt the exemptions were too numerous.
Hynhan B. Kevelson, foreman of a
jury criticized by Judge Francis X.
Mancuso as mentally incompetent"
said yesterday he expected to take the
matter up personally with the Judge.
'It seems likely to me-" he said, that
the Judge was in possession of COL
lateral information not brought out
during the trial, which led him to be-
lieve the defendant guilty"
Lawyer Raps Judges.
The judge who tries to humiliate
counsel, witness or juror in the dis
charge of his sworn duty was criticized
by Mann Trice at the annual meeting
of the New York County Association of
the Criminal Bar. at which the election
of Ely Rosenberg as president was an
nounced. The meeting was held in the
lawyers room of the Criminal Courts
Building.
Mr. Rosenberg, who is we'll known in
Republican ranks. said he was in favor
OF the establishment of a home for
members of the bar who become in
through old age or other
cause He promised that a substantial
law library would be placed in the law

WATSON SCORES
DEPARTMENT OF INJUSTICE
by The Federated Press)

Washington. - Coincident with the
appeal Of the ''child crusaders" who
were pieketing the White House gates
asking the president to pardon all po-
litical prisoners, Senator Tom Watson
Of Georgia, in fiery attack on Attor-
ney-General Daugherty. demanded, APP
propros of the Morse case, why the
difference between the deal which the
poor man gets in court for speaking a
few indistinct words and the deal which
the rich man gets when he and his sons
robbed the government during all the
months of the war.
THAT country is on the brink Of
ruin and its system about to fall, de-
clared Watson, when its judges are
corrupt, when its administration of JUS
tice is venal, when the rich man is all
powerful before the courts. and the
poor man has no chance. 1t is not a
pleasant thing 10 contrast the treatment
given to this rich criminal, Charles W.
Morse, and that given to these poor
creatures who are languishiing in pri-
son, after having served year after year
for having said something in criticism
of the war policies of the former adj
ministration and thereby having tech
nically violated the espionage law.

MOTION PICTURE
NOT A new IDEA

LONDON, Sept 26.-The earliest
idea Of moving picture was recorded
in the time of CONTIGUOUS, the Chinese
philosopher who lived 500 years be-
fore Christ. At least this is the de-
duction drawn from his studies into
the question by Will Day, a well
known figure in the English fiirn
world, who has exhibited in London
e collection of relics and machines
tracing the growth Of the moving pic
ture from the first primitive idea to
its present form.
The shadow shows" OF the time OF
CONTIGUOUS are the first Of all known
endeavors to present animated pic
lures. From this early time, how
ever, there was Il long period OF in
record of progressive achievement is
found in 1916, WIN Athanasius Kirch-
err published a book in Latin entitled
"Ars Magnalycus ct Umbrae" in
which a description and illustration is
given Of a moving picture which the
writer had evolved with mirrors and
a tallow candle for illuminant.
Included In the collection is the
original disc which Eadweard Muy-
bridge used to settle the controversy
between two American millionaires on
the Alo Patio race course as TO
whether the four feet of a trotting
horse were off the ground at the
same time.
The experiments which Muybridge
carried out is said to have cost the
of Pennsylvania 10000
pounds, but the fact was proved that
horse did actually lift all four feet

SCHOOLS SHOULD
TELL OF INDIAN

CHICAGO, Sept 25.-The greatest
defect in the present Indian educa-
tional program is that it does not car
ry the Indian far enough along civil
liZed ways, is the opinion of DR.. Elmer
E. Higley, Chicago, superintendent OF
Indian Work Of the Methodist Episco-
pal church.
Our schools for Indian children do
not take them far enough" he said
open for them the high schools, af-
ford them the opportunity Of college
training and the problem Of going
back to the blanket will be solved. 1t
is estimated that not three percent of
those receiving high school education
ever go back to their native customs.
Many object to the evangeiizing of
the indian because of sentimental
reasons. The Indian in his primitive
condition Is go picturesque they say.
Leave him alone against the back
ground of his colorful paganism and
his untutored savagery.'
Certain Indians have resented the
intrusion of the white mans religion.
The cause Of this resentment has not
been SO much in the intuitive desire
to hold to pagan rites as it has been
from hatred engendered by cruelties
and injustlces which the red men
have suffered at the hands Of their
white brothers.
1.-THE Indians earlier contact with
white men and the Christian religion
was unfortunate. His opinions were
based largely upon what he saw OF
the borders Of our civilization. To
these borders came the white traders,
usually a class having no scruples
a gainst taking advantage Of the red
man.
THE false impression has been and
Is now rapidly undersoig. change. The
educated among them especially are

know the old faiths are false and now
are asking for preachers and teachers
