THE PUBIC DEFENDER

Legislation is On foot ia Of the middle states to
provide public defender ia every county to look out for
the interests of npeculiOus prisoners.
Every prisoner, matter how poor with what crime
charged has right to adequate legal defense Ii there
perso upon whom the duty rests or no definite way
regulating the matter the expense to the public for
providing special legal service is often unduy great and
the service itself too frequently Of an Indifferent order
There room too for the activities OF the shyster
lawyer who haunts the courtrooms in most communities
and preys the msfortunes OF the poverty stricken
and ignorant With the office of public defender legally
established and completely filled these difficulties would
be largely overcome.
One of the great problems of modern justice IS to
make the courts serve the poor adequately they serve
to whom lawyers fees and court costs are Of little
moment The saared public defender furthers this cause
always providing that he is chosen for proper Quailflca-
tions and ability and that graft sordd political favor
