AMAZED AT
FINDING OF
PAROLE LAW
Gives State Department
Power TO Nullify Sentences,
Free Prisoners

Chicago, Dec. lO.-LP)- pc,
lice officials and judges prOfesseG
amazement today over the discovery
of statute relating to the parole OF
criminals which they. said puts int,
the hands of Il state department pow.
er to nullify all sentences of juries
and judges and to turn out of tn,
penitentiaries any convict at any
time.
The statute was first brought tc
light by Captain John Siege Of the
detective bureau i'm connection with
search for an explanation for tho
parole recently granted Ira ID. Perry
.Jr., sentenced to life imprisonment
three years ago for murder.
Wording Of the Statute
The act. passed in the closing days
of the last Legislature. amends the
old law of 1873 under which fiXeG
allowances of communication Of sen
tence were automatically granted
cOnvicts, and reads:
1.-THE department of public welfare
is authorized and directed to pre-
scribe reasonable rules and regula
tions for the diminution of sentences
on good conduct, of persons hereto
fore and hereafter convicted Of crime
who are confined in state penal anC
reformatory institutions"

that was ever foisted upon an un
suspecting public said Judge viii

courts. at has been hard enough
for us in Chicago to get conviction:
OF criminals. Now this law--O
| which I never heard of until now
absolutely makes ineffective and use

Similar comment was made by Cap
tain Siege. and the Herald and Tx
aminer said that several nOtabl,

law Nathan +. Leopold and Richar'

could be restored to liberty. Judg

that it had nothing to do with it

Perry Again Sought
"As long as it is on the statute
books we are bound by its provi
siOns," he said, but so long as an
chief of the department this law new
er will be used to the disadvantage o
law-abiding citizens.' The new Law

New York. Dec. 1O.-LP)- The
stock prices worked moderately high
er today as speculative interest was
heightened by favorable trade devel-
opments and another food of in
creased and extra dividends. Trad
ing, however, was on a reduced scale
with a complete absence of the re-
cent violent fluctuations in the high
priced motors and specialties. Re-
vival of interest in the railroad
shares followed the establishment of
Southern Railway on 81 annual
dividend basis, Il three per cent ex-
ira by the Mobile and Ohio and
prospects of favorable action by
other companies, including the Bal
timore e. Ohio. Southern Railway
duplicated the years high price of
1T SIS. Announcement of an in
crease of 472,597 tons in untitled or
ders Of the United States Steel cor
pOration created a fresh demand for
the steel shares. Steel common

lie sharing in the Improvement Many
