Doubts Many Confessions
Suggests Inquisitorial Body
BE Guided by a Presiding
Officer i'm Deliberations

Judge Thomas c. T. Grain. OF the
Court Of General Sessions. told the
committee on law enforcement Of
tho American Bar Association az its
session Yesterday. at 80 West Forty
fourth Street. that the best way to
deal with the problem Of enforcing the
law is 10 raise the standards Of crimi-
nal procedure. The spirit Of fairness
should be such. the veteran jurist SAID
that the trial through every turn
should "ring true with the highest
standards Of justice and fairness"
To assist toward this end, Judge
Grain made three recommendations
First. he would have a presiding Off
Ger present in the grand jury ROOM
lie then would bar confessions from
trials. except they arc made under
certain conditions, and would also
have indictments against alleged sec
ond offenders restricted 10 the second
orense until identity is clearly estab-
lished.
Opposed TO Separate Trials
Judge Grain also said that evils had
developed under the law granting sepa-
rate trials 70 members Of a group in
dicted for one and the same crime.
All should be tried together. he said
unless exceptional reasons were ad-
vanced for separate trials. -,
ut would surprise the committee
Judge Grain said "to know how many
indictments are found on insufficient
evidence. Many are presented to the
grand jury IN violation OF the prln-
ciples Of law and good morals. The
main trouble is that the jurors arc
laymen and the work is heavy.
II would have presiding officer IN
the grand jury room competent to pass
upon questions OF legality. He would
be sworn 20 secrecy. but would pre-
vent the often unintentional invasion
Of the rights Of the accused l would
raise. instead OF lower, the standards
Of procedure. There is too much
clamor for the doing away OF accepted
safeguards Of the accused during trial
Tr',ts should be conducted so that not
even the accused could say that he
Rad not had a fair chance.
The present way Of including inc
frst oAensc in the instrument contain.
ING the Indictment for the second mad
a had effect on the jury, Judge Cram
said. and should be in a separate IN
Strument.
"A surprising number Of alleged con
fossions come before our court Judge
Grain continued. with surprisingly
little evidence outside Of these alleged
confessions. would provide that no
confession should be received IN evi..
dence unless made in the presence OF
an attorney for the accused. J would
also be inclined TO seal the mouths oi

iating TO confessions

The New Play
By Percy Hammond
"A Pinch Hitter and Allan
Pollock Afford Moder-
ate Entertainment
At Henry Miller's Theater;


Some Of the more traek-woary and
ancient situations Of the theater are
performed so shrewdly in "A Pinch
Hitter" that that small comedy be-
comes a moderately entertaining pas
time. II may not be gainsaid that Mr..
Allan Pollock, east in the sholtering
role Of an agreeable adventurer. is not
a friendly player Neither is it to be
denied that Mr.. II. NJ. Harwood, the
author. is fair craftsman in trihing
mediocrities. SO when they. with other
genial persons, get together upon
stage the chances are that you will be
able. with a minimum Of agony, to last
the evening through.
II has been quite while perhaps,
since you saw a check burned by the
hero in a play. Well that pleasing in
cineration is again vouchsafed you IN
"A Pinch Hitter" Moreover, Mr.. Pol
lock, though a penniless imposter'
kindles his cigarette from its flames.
He has just engaged himself to coun-
terfeit, for the purposes Of bill Of
enforcement. the lover OF married
lady. She wishes TO change her fox
hunting husband for a eadaverous
member Of Parliament. Since the
woman involved is impcrsonaied by
the attractive Miss Pamela Gaythorne.
and since the statesman resembles n
tardy exhumation Of Lord Dundresry,
Mr.. Pollock weakens. That is, he weak
ems at being paid as the instrument
Of so odious a romance. Besides, he
burns the check so well and he has
such a good time in doing it that it
is worth the financial sacrifice.
But. being man Of his word. he
goes TO Heron's Court, the lady's eoun-
try place, there 20 compromise her IN
the eyes Of her husband. The situa-
tion again allows Mr. Pollock 20 be
come effective. For example. there IL
much pathos in his voice and dcport-
ment as droamily he explains TO her
his ignoble dilemma. He tells her that
he is like the ycarning substitute who.
sitting upon the bench in ball park
is summoned TO bat in a pinch. The
play has been that much amended since
IL was done in London by Denis kadie.
Obviously, he makes a hit with his fair
listener, andi tappears for a moment
that he may become her real lover in
stead Of her pretended one. A trick is
performed a little later. however by
Miss Helen Stewart as n handsome
niece in the household and all is rather
comfortable in the end.

ROADS STORING COAL;
EXPECT STRIKE SOON

Orders for the immediate storing of
coal amounting to 10000 tons in x
cess Of the current consumption have
been received by General Superinten-
dent w. R. Smith Of the central dis
trict of the Great Northern with Of
fees in Great Falls, from Great
Northern headquarters in St. Paul.
The storing of the coal will necessi-
tate the use Of 1000 cars.
This movement is in line with that
adopted by many railroads in prepar-
alton for a possible strike when the
agreements covering the wages and
working conditions of miners which
expire April /. All railroads are pre-
pairing for the expected emergency by
storing coal on cars or stock piling
enough to last for a period Of six
months following the strike.
The Great Northern in this district
will store it's coal in Great Falls,
Havre and Wolf Point. Most of the
coal will be loaded in box cars, Off
Gals say. Head officials Of the North
ern Pacific and Milwaukee railroads
report that they will store large guam
titles of coal in Montana within the
next two months. The storing of coal
by the Northern Pacific has been un-
der way for some time and it is re-
ported that more than 100000 tons

CAYUSE PASSING FROM
RANGES OF MONTANA

Range horses are starving to death
in the southern part of the state, ac-
cording to reports from stockmen and
ranchers in that section. Due to the
heavy snowfall and the lack of water
on the range these animals have be-
come poor and a number Of them have
died during the last cold snap. The
pasture is also very short. Stockmen
and ranchers have tried to rid the
range of these horses for a number
of years and only last fall 500 head
we're sold at $50 each to the Mexican
government for use in the Mexican
army. The stockmen claim that this
tpye of horse is of no use and only
impairs the range for better breed of
horses. 1t is expected that the COM
ing spring will practically see the last
of the range horse in that part of
Montana.
