There are 10 men besides Gray in the
lighthouse. He can, and does, talk
to them, but he cannot see them
except when they pass along the
corridor on the way to the exercise
yard.
Gray is well-mannered and
tractable," said Lawes. He does a
great deal of writing, and also reads
the Bible. His only visitors, besides
his lawyer, have been his mother, his
sister and his brother-in-law. He
seems as cheerful as could be ex.
pected under the circumstances"
Opposes Death Penalty
Warden Lawes personally is OPP
posed to the death penalty although
years ago he was not. Making it
plain he did not refer to the
Snyder-Gray case, Lawes said:
Murder in its final analysis is
due to extrinsic conditions rather
than an inherent instinct for kill
ing. Is society justified in taking
life for a crime which is the re-
suit Of conditions for which 1t is
largely responsible and In exacting
death penalty where the percent
age of probable error has proved
to be so, large? Would life impris-
onment answer the purpose as well
with greater justice to all?"
Lawes made an analysis for the
New York Survey recently in
which ne covered the homicide
statistics of Sing Sing prison cover
ing a period of 80 years, and in
part going back to the beginning
of that institution. He has been
in charge SINCE 1920.
He has seen 100 men executed.

DIR. DAWES TELLS
OF STRIDES MADE
BY OSTEOPATHY

DR.. Willard C. Dawes, a graduate
of the American School Of Osteo-
pathy, has been invited to attend
reunion, on Pixies Peak, July 30, of
his class.
DR.. Dawes, in pointing out some of
the strides made by Osteopathy in
recent years, cited the fact that the
$4,000 members of the Missouri Pa
cific Hospital and Health board have
instructed their officers to add oste-
opathy to the forms of treatment
provided. The appointment of osteo-
pathic physicians at Kansas City and
other places has been made, and ac-
cOrding to items in the columns of
railroad publications the results have
been satisfactory.
The Missouri Pacific HOSPITAL and
Health board, DR.. Dawes said, is an
organization quite similar to the
Northern Pacific Benefit association.
'In the latter the members have never
officially requested the appointment
of osteopathic physicians for North
ern Pacific hospitals, but thousands
of its members have by letter and
by petition asked for such action, ac-
cOrding to Dr.. Dawes.

Mrs. Cunningham with operation of

DR.. Peacock appeared voluntarily

which time Mrs. Cunningham will
also surrender.
This move followed the action or
