Honesty and Frankness
of Veniremen.

probably prevent. or at least, hinder
him from returning a verdict that
would be fair 10 the government. L.
L. Troell of Pleasanton. Tex, one of
the prospective jurors examined N
the liquor conspiracy case in the fed
eral court, Monday morning, was ex-
cused from service for the remainder
of the term.
Two other prospective jurors de-
clared that while they were strongly
opposed TO the national prohibition
act, that they believed that they could
cast their prejudices aside and try
the case according TO the law and the
evidence.
The attitude Of the three prospective
jurors toward the national prohibition
laws was brought TO light while
United States District Attorney John
ID. Hartman was examining the jury
list TO ascertain the qualifications of
the prospective Jurors. When slightly
over half the list had been examined,
the attorneys for the defense objected,
which objection was sustained. to the
government attorney asking the pros
pective jurors if they believed in the
Volstead act. and asked that the gov
eminent cinfine its questions along
that line to whether or not the pros
pective jurors believed in the enforce
ment of the law and in the enforce
mcnt of the national prohibition law.

Assistant United States District At
torney Williams, stated that he admir-
ed the honesty and candidness with
which Mr.. Troell had expressed his
opinion and prejudice.
Il would rather have man like
that on the jury" Mr.. Williams said.
than one who was prejudiced and
would lie about his prejudice"
