Mr.. Beckman said that the ori-

agriculture placed the total Georgia
peach crop at not to exceed $4,000

quantity a trifle, but not a great
zeal. Up to the early part of the

GROVE To DEMAND
TRIAL BY JURY

that the other defense experts on
mentality and Juvenile delinquency
would probably follow. DR.. White

the mechanisms Of character form

'If the defense attempts to show
that these boys are insane, l will
ask Judge Caverly to empanel a jury
to determine that fact, said Mr..
Grove, revealing the same attitude
as that which he took in court July
q when the pleas of guilty were
entered. He made his statement
then when he tried without success
to get Mr.. Bachrach to say whether
the plea was being made for sane
or insane persons.
If the question of sanity or men.
tai capacity is raised the states at
torney said it would be the duty Of
the court automatically to set aside
the pleas of guilty entered by the
two college youths still in their
teens and call a jury into the box
to determine the issue.
1.-THE law is conclusive on the
point that an insane man cannot
enter a plea of guilty." Mr.. Grove
said in referring to the pleas of
guilty already entered and to the
quick shift in plans made by the
state. eff there is any attempt to
raise the issue of insanity l will in
sist that a jury be called ut once.
There is no such thing in the
law as distinguishing whether the
man is rs per cent or 80 per cent
norma. He is either sane and re-
sponsible under the law or he is IN
sane.
THE only provision in the law is
that of mitigating circumstances.
By that is meant if the deceased in
dicated he was going to attack the
defendant or there was some little
provocation for the murder of some
set of similar facts.
Mitigating circumstances mean
the acts surrounding the crime ard
not the degree of mental capacity of
the defendant or the measuring Of
his mental responsibility with a yard
stick. The only way q court can
tell the punishment to be meted
out is by hearing all the facts and
that is why have introduced all of
my witnesses. | contend there are
no mitigating circumstances and
that the defendants should oe
hanged.
eff the defense attempts to put
ON any alienist to give medical tes-
timony relative to the mental cen
dition or capacity of the defen-
dants Twill object to the introduce
lions of such testimony, as the
court has no power under the law
to first decide the sanity or the I'M
sanity of the defendants and then
afterwards the proper Judgment to
be inflicted"

varying from 1000 to 5000 feet, so it
