LABOR SHORTAGE
WRECKS MARKET

Labor shortage is bad In many
ways. In the first place. IL means
the loss OF part OF the crop. and as
the price TO growers is not high. a
partial crop loss means the loss of
all profits and often more. In add.
ton to this. when there is an made
auate supply OF piekers. berries are
necessarily permitted 10 remain on
the vines too long, thus bringing in
enough inferior berries TO glut the
market.
III there is a shortage now. II is
hard TO tell what tho situation will
be little later on. when the need
Of labor will be still greater. IT is
10 be hoped that something will be
found 10 relieve the situation.

day, but onward for Is days until
 the end of the trial.
 Most people know, either through observation or by hearsay through the columns of the press, how tedi- ous and long drawn out thing a
 murder trial can be. As rule select- ing of jury-especially when tho
 case has been talked a great deal- takes up considerable time. Such
 was true in that trial. Then came first the taking of testimony from drauehtsmen and others concerning
 the location of the crime, followed by other witnesses for the state, inclu. siVe of surgeons who made examina. tions of wounds; then the defense had it's inning-which included my own 1 testimony, followed by a four hours cross examination by the district at. torney. Arguments on both sides
 were made and the jury was instruct. ed by the judge.
 My trial was without surprises. | The main element was my own con. | fession. Common sense alone assured all that conviction of some kind
 was inevitable. The reason. as q matter of fact, why the state had
 me under cross examination so long was they hoped to break down my story of the way the shooting oc- cured; and; the reason they hoped so to break It was, that that story, if
 believed even in part. might tend to
 show such mitigating circumstances as would cause d jury to fix the pun.
 lshment at life Imprisonment ratheS
 than execution.
 "We-The Jury"
 The newspaper decision was that my original version of the happen.
 ing and that told on the stand were
 alike, and that all of the cross-
 questioning did not shake the testi- mony In any material way. Tho
 decislon of the jury, however. indi- lieVe the story told by me or that, despite the truthfulness of it, I was guilty of first degree murder
 For at half past three on the aft
 erhoon of that April 16 the jury filed into the court room after an
 absence of but five hours, and the
 verdict written on a slip of paper
 and read out by the clerk of the court was:
 We, the. jury duly empaneled in the case of the State vs. John W,
 Kane, find the defendant guilty as charged in the information"
 A large crowd heard the verdict.
 w hen It was read there was silence in the court room for perhaps fif- l teen seconds. That silence was broken by my attorneys, one of whom
 asked that the jury be boiled: that Is. each ones name called and asked If that was his verdict Each of the twelve men answerd m the affirma-
 tive. The judge turned to the iurv
 and tahnked them for their patience and court was adjourned
 Then following a brief conversa- tion between my attroneys and me. l was taken back to the county jail to await the day of sentence which sentence I knew would be | death.
