CRIMINAL COURTROOM, CHI
Aug. 22.-Breaking the way
Tor Clarence Darrow, Attorney Wal
ter Bachrach today attacked the
medical testimony introduced by the
State to hang Nathan Leopold, Jr.,
and Richard Loeb, for the murder of
Robert Franks.
Rachrach contended the State
could not ask the court to give Gre
dence to the State argument against
the mental disease testimony OF
the defense aHenists. This will be
one Of the chief arguments of Oar
row in the supreme effort to save the
boys.
Darrow was to begin his argu-
ment, the climax Of the defense eff
fort TO save the lives Of the slayers,
at the afternoon session.
A tremendous crowd stormed the
court room, attracted by the knowl-
edge Darrow will speak. For once
the men out-fought the women and
somewhat more than half Of the
room was filed with men. Large
forces of police fought the crowds
both outside and inside the build
ing to hold them in check.
Slayers at Ease
Nathan and Richard appeared
more at ease today than at any time
during the rast few days. They
were confident of Darrow's success.
Bachrach expressed his claim that
the States alienists who testified
they considered Leopold and Loeb
mentally sound. had not conducted
thorough examinations.
DIR. Patrick, DIR. Church and DR..
Singer all admitted" :" Baehrach said.
that their examinations were very
= >perfunctory and unsatisfactory. DR..
'SVilliam o. Krohm was the only
States alienist who said he was
satisfied with his examination"
BGchrach then read from medical
text books which said mental exami-
nations should be conducted in great
detail anc over considerable length
of tiIne-that meagre examinations
could not be considered satisfactory.
Bachrach also read from the books
of DR.. Singer and Krohn. to con-
trOvert much Of the evidence they
gave.
He pointed out that the State alien
lists created the impression the boys
lied to the defense alienists. He held

LOWELL OBJ SERV DRY,

this evening Mars and the earth
will be neck and neck in their race
around the sun.
This constitutes the opposition"
in which the scientific world is so in
terested- After tonight the earth be-
gins gaining on the planet which
falls behind never to come so near
the earth again until we'll after the
year 1000 A. D..
Scientists at Lowell observatory
here. where special studies have
been made of the planet since 1894,
do not anticipate seeing anything
spectacular tonight.
Study Desert Area
The planet will be in a most fa-
vorable position for study. however.
Presented to the inquiring eye at
the giant telescopes will be the
desert region, at the center Of
which is a dark area called "Soliz
Lacus," or lake of the sun, once
thought to be water, but now sus-
pected of being an expanse of sea
sonal vegetation.
This region will be directly un-
der the Martian noon day sun. AL
ways hopeful. but with little prob.
ability of a striking discovery at the
present state of development of the
telescope. the scientists will look for
signs that indicate presence of life.
Surface Phenomena
But this will be incidental to in,
vestigations more positively certain
Of results. such as study of the
planets surface phenomena and its
heat.

bears promise of new information
concerning certain canals"
Tonight the observers hope to con.
firm their. belief that since seen in
full view last July the dark regions
along the sanals have grown.

on a party program. Of late the
fractional differences have made
it of relatively little Importance.
The opinion prevails that party
caucus will come into its own
again as a result of the elections.
The theory is advanced that only
a blind factionist would fail to
note the writing on the wall, so
to speak, made by the electorate
few weeks ago. Interviews
with Congressional leaders bring
out the sentiment that there will
be increasing evidences of party
solidarity. The story is current
that the Democrats are already
moving toward this end. Accord
ing to the opinions expressed III
various quarters, the Democrats
will turn their backs on alliances
with the so-called Republican
malcontents. 1t will be recalled
these alliances were affected by
the legislative measures en-
acted at the last session of the
present Congress. The tax bill
is given as an illustration of this
work. Senator Thomas F. Ray
ard, of Delaware, Democratic
leader, has stated that if his par
ty is to go forward to success, it
must unite on party principles
which would mean the disappear
ance of blocs, factions and per-
sonalities.
Many Democratic leaders feel
that if their record as minority
party in the next Congress is
clear and unblemished, that their
chances to gain control of the
Senate and House in the 1926
elections will be greatly en-
HANGED. Meanwhile, the agita-
ton is growing in the Republican
circles to force, by sheer weight

WASHINGTON LETTER
CONTINUED from Page I,


between Senator La Toilette and
his followers and the Republican
leaders resulted in the election
of Senator Ellison d. Smith, of
South Carolina, as chairman of
the Interstate Commerce Com
mittee. In the House few years
ago Congressman Martin B. Mad
den, Republican of Illinois, was
made chairman of the all-import-
ant Committee on Appropria-
tons in recognition of his unusu-
al ability though he was out
ranked from the seniority stand
point. The chairman is always a
member Of the dominant party,
with the exception noted.
The average person not ia
miliar with the intricacies of
law-making believe that laws
are actually passed or defeated
during debates on the floor of
the Senate or House. The facts
are that a bill is seldom reported
to the House without the con-
sent of a committee. You may
be sure that committee members
take a quiet poll of the House
and Senate and know the fate of
particular bills before reporting
them out of committee. The
technical part of law-making is
handled by subcommittee usu-
ally made up from three to five
members, including minority re-
representatives..
Call has been issued for party
caucuses to meet Friday and Sat-
urday of this week and the early
part of next. Ordinarily the eau
Gus is a conference for agreement
