Fitzmau- rice wired Grover Whalen, Chairman of the Mayor Walker Reception Com mtttee, asking that the report that he was proceeding to New York be cor rected.
 Fitzmaurice landed at Lake Stennes, Quebec, after a two-day day flight from the Greenly Island Junkers plane F-13 in the Bremen sister ship which returned to the Curtis field last night with the Bremen propeller to be trans shipped to Murray Bay. The propel- lor is uncompleted and will be fitted to the F-13 for the Montreal flight.

 MENT, DEFENSE

WASHINGTON, April 19. P-The defense rested suddenly in the Sinclair trial without introducing the lengthy deposition made for the oil operator by Fall. The action marked a record in speed in oil cases.

 sinclair's lawyer said it was unnec- essary to use the Fall deposition com prising 100000 words. Testimony was introduced by the defense before they rested which intended to show the s25, ,O00 Fall got from Sinclair before his trip to Russia was merely a loan.

their minds fixed more or less on their private affairs. which they feel are suffering through their absence. Having but little capacity to absorb. remember, and weigh the testimony. they frequently doze during the trial and are susceptible to prejudice and sympathy.
 Moreover, the jury is composed of twelve separate units. each unit com paratively unknown in the com munity, so that there is an absence of individual responsibility. And since jurors are not required to give any reasons in support of their ver- dict, their responsibility is com pete. Furthermore. the requirement of unanimity is a great advantage to the guilty. One obstinate. friendly or corrupt juror can easily bring about a miscarriage of justice. It is clear. therefore that the jury fails far shot of being an ideal instrument of justice. because it is poorly qualified to determine guilt or innocence and because 1t Is very likely to err in it's Judgments. There is much less like lihood-at least theoretically-that a guilty person will be acquitted by judge than by jury.

PEDESTRIAN DANGER

; Death of .

Attempts to have the state provide sufficient room alongside some of the main roads for pedestrians have been futile. Walking along g highway ncse days has become a thrilling nut dangerous method of locomotion. Too many autoists. noting the ad- vantages they possess as against a pedestrian. nit by them with only inches to spare. Anyone not believing this need only to try . hike on a pleasant Sunday aftcrnoon; or on any other, day.
 The story of this man is that one automobile felled him and another rolIed over his prostrate body. The latter did not stop. That is the story that has become entirely too com- mon.
 Dstpite the danger along the high ways for pedestrians there is no law whatever giving rights along the reaAs exclusively to motorists. Pedes- trians, as . matter of fact. in law have as much, right on the roads as cara It Is the bounden duty of motorists to be on the lookout for all sorts of trafiic. including pedestrians.

 The only safe method would be 10 have walks along the highways for pedestrians, these far enough remov- ed from the side of the roads as 10 insure such safety. But this will cost the state a little money, aud under the cherished ray-as-you- go policy what can ono expect?

 the comparatively small company that he. has succeeded in putting in the field.
 The upshot of the decision will be
 that De Forest will be entitled to
 many a dollar in royalty. It is fortu- nate he had the courage and deter mination to fight for his rights, and the financial backing to make this possible. Many an inventor has not
 been so fortunate.
 The Supreme Court laid down an
 important paragraph in its decision.
 one which will affect all future liti-
 gation on patent rights; i. e.: "When question between con- tending parties as 10 priority of in- Nention is decided in the patent of- ! flee the decision must be accepted
 as controlling upon that question of 1 fact in any subsequent suit between i the same parties unless the contrary | is establishment by testimony which

 opinion of the patent office no longer

 itself to think there is nothing to
 stop it from doing. about what 1t | likes.
