OF responsibility. You can never ex-
plain hanging by saying that other
courts overpowered YOU"
Taking up an analysis of the case
itself. Mr.. barrow read from scrap
of paper the epithets which had been
applied to the crime by Thomas Mar
shall, and Joseph Savage, assistant
states attorneys. "Cowardly, das-
tardly, fiendish, cruel, premeditated
and cold blooded," he read, and then
proceeded to argue against the fit
ness of each of them.
Hanging More Cowardly
Hanging, he said, would be more
cowardly and cold blooded than the
crime itself. The killing of Franks
'was one of the least dastardly and
cruel" he had ever known about. he
said, and in justification of this
statement declared that the standard
to be applied here was the sufferings
of the victim.
"Bobbie Franks suffered very
little" he said. "He was dead within
fifteen minutes after entering the
automobile. He may not have known
what happened"
Mr.. barrow declared Stupid" the
theory of the state that the $4,000
ransom money was the motive for
the crime. He pointed out Loeb's
private checking account of $4,000
and the testimony Of the secretary of
Leopold, ST., that young Leopold was
free to get money from the secretary
for the asking.
1.-The murder was not for money"
he charged. 1T was the senseless act
of immature and diseased children,
wandering around in the dark, whose
lives we can not thoroughly under
stand"
Just before the session ended Mr..
barrow began to discuss the effects
of the crime on the families.
II know how easy it is to talk
about mothers when you want to do
something cruel, as some men talk
about patriotism when they want to
get something's he said. II know
that any mother might be the mother
OF Bobby Franks, as we'll the moth
err of Richard Loeb or Nathan
Leopold. The trouble is this, that if
she is the mother of u Richard Loeb
or Nathan Leopold, she has ia ask
herself How came my children to be
what they are? From what ances-
try did they get this strain? How far
removed was the poison that de-
stroyed their lives? Was l the bear
er of the seed that brings them to
death?'
Pity All Parents
"They are helpless. But when YOU
are plying the father and the mother
Of poor Bobby Franks what about
the mothers and fathers of these two
unfortunate boys and what about the
unfortunate boys themselves, and
what about all the fathers and all
the mothers and all the boys and all
the girls who tread dangerous maze
in darkness from the cradle to the
grave?
"And do you think you can cure
the hatreds and EMBELLISHMENTS of
the world by hanging them? You
simply show ignorance and hate when
you say it. You may here and there
cure hatred with love and under
standing, but you can only add fuel
to the flames by hating in return.
For Gods sake, if the state in
which / live is not kinder, more hu-
man, more considerable, more intel
ligent than the mad act of these two
mad boys, ! am sorry ! have lived so
long,"
Mr.. barrow will resume tomorrow

WHEAT PRICES
ARE LOWER

Chicago, Aug. %, (By the A. P.)
despite liberal export buying
wheat prices gave way as a re-
suit of sympathy with corn. After
opening 3-4 to 1 1-2 cents down,
September $1.247-S to $1.25 and
December $1.30 to $1.3O Ia, wheat
underwent a decided drop.

geles Express and H. L. Blewett of
the Los Angeles Herald.
De Palma made a before-sunrise
climb, to avoid the binding glare
of the early sun which would have
imposed a greatly added hazard
on some of the turns. The Mt.
Wilson road, due to the dry winter,
is in by no means as good condi-
ton as when former runs were
made, in the opinion of Manager
Cory Of the Mt. Wilson hotel. Not
outstanding. De Palma reached
the top without other mishap than
a slight dent on one rear fender
where he scraped the rock of the
mountain side on one turn. The
heat indicator on the Chrysler dash
showed less than 200 degrees at
the finish, the water in the radiator
