MORE INDUSTRIES
NEED Of GEORGIA,
SAYS DR.. BRITAIN

WAYCROSS, Ga, July eff
Georgia is to attain wealth, she
must change as rapidly as possible
from the mere sale of her raw
materials to their manufacture, Dr..
L. Britain, president of the Georgia
School of Technology, told the Geor-
gia Press association, in annual con-
enrion here today, in advocating leg
islative support of the schoo, which
she termed as ''the chief re.ia"ee of
the state for our industrial progress
and development"
ITO place this state on the real
road to fortune and progress" DIR.
Britain continued, every city,
town and village must have in
dustrial development as in New Eng
land. When this is accomplished
and our industries are established
and maintained instead of depending
upon agriculture alone. we will see
the day of real progress and wealth
in this commonwealth"
Calling attention of the editors to
the fact that during the past year
Georgia has shipped out Of the state
clays, kaolin. bauXite and numerous
other non.metallic minerals from
which the state received $1,000, 900
Eat the rate of few cents per
pound" DIR. Britain stated that I'VE
bought back the manufactured prod
ucts Of these raw materials at cost
of more than $20,000,000."
The Georgia School of Technology,
DIR. Britain went on, has just estab-
ished its latest additional ceramic

Surrender by Defense in First
Round of Bitter Court Bat
tie Does Not Mean Boys
Must Die
BY OWEN l.. SCOTT
Especial Leased Wire to- The Journal.)
Copyright, 1924

CHICAGO, July 23.-Psychiatris
still hold the balance in the bitter
tight opening today to save the necks
of Chicagos precocious young
"thrill-killers," Nathan Leopold, Jr..
and Richad Loeb sons of Chica go
millionaires.
first round of the battle, it is ev1-
dent, does not mean that the STAY
ers will go to the gallows, even
should Justice Caverly so sentence
them. Their attorneys threw the
boys on 'the mercy of the court"
and look for mercy. To them life
Imprisonment would be graciously
accepted, but hanging is to be
fought to the last ditch.
The determination of the state to
demand the death penalty has drawn
the lines for a memorable court
battle But instead of a jury of
twelve, Judge CaVerly sits alone TO
pass judgment on the murder of IA
" arold Robert Franks, son Of an
other millionaire, Jacob Franks.
Alienists the Pivot
Here the psychiatrists enter. They
are the pivotal point of the defense.
For two months numbers of them
have been unraveling the minds of
the Loeb Leopold Combination-the
pair whose pampered, tutored life
left them university graduates at
IS and murderers at 10. Frying into
these minds revealed an irresponsi-
bility, a lack of emotional develop
ment that borders on insanity, the
defense psychiatrists are counted on
to tell the court.
Alienists for the state are pre-
pared to testify that the youths are
as comrIeteiy sane as they appeared
! in the court. Jail life seems to have
removed none of their suavity, ruff
fled. their composure nor dulled in
terest in their own plight. Leopold
is no longer so eager to display his
superior mental ability. but both he
! and Loeb take great delight in not
| ing the amount of newspaper dis
! play the pair receive.
There is ample precedent to in
! dictate that after all the arguing and
presentation of evidence, which is
| expected to occupy at least three
weeks, Judge Caverly, on his own
sponsibility might impose the
death sentence. Five times within
recent years. local judges have sent
! slayers to the gallows after plea
of guilty, the last occasion only a
few weeks ago when Robert Scott
of Detroit. was sentenced without
trial TO De hanged.
Fight May Drag
Should LeoTold and Loeb be or
| dered to the gallows after the final
! show of their psychiatr lists and at
! torneys Attorney Darrow has init
mated that the legal battle woulS
/ go at once to the state supreme
court. Each step Of the way is be-
ing bulwarked for possible openings
| that might be used in the case of
a death penalty. While the state is
/ building what it believes 10 be an
/ impenetrable argument tor hanging.
! the defense is just as carefully KY
/ ing the ground for legal saving
maneuyers should such be the out
/ come of the present furry.
The object of the defer is for

ALIENISTS HOLD BALANCE
IN FIGHT TO SAVE YOUTHS

the killers to emerge alive but i'm.
prisoned-the goal of the prosecutor
to see them hanged. 1t is for i'm
prisonment that the millions of the
parents are available to be spent
They ask only that their boys lives
be spared.
Yet, whatever the outcome, the
future is none too bright for the
two young men. The mental powers
so early displayed that marked these
youths as intellectual supermen
when barely beyond adolescence, are
doomed either to extinction or to a
confinement that will of necessity
duh all of their brilliance.
A few weeks will mark the end of
the first stage Of the battle to save
the two lives demanded in Payment
for that of Robert Franks.
The other stages of the fight
might extend over period of years
if hanging should be the sentence.
