Marshal; were sworn and exar-
ined as witnesses on behalf Of
the Committee. Mr.. Breeze was
also sworn and testified on his
own behalf
did not act as a member of the
Committee The remaining mem
bers of the Committee, at the
conclusion of the hearing, agreed
that the evidence sustained the
charge. but disagreed as to the
recommendations to be made,
MesSrs. Stevens and Ham recon-
mending a severe reprimand and
the undersigned recommending
suspension from practice for a per-
iod to be determined by the Board
of Governors.
After twenty days had elapsed,
during which Mr.. Breeze filed no
statement in opposition to the
recommendations, the Board of
Governors, after a careful review
of the record, including a complete
transcript of the testimony, rend-
cred its decision suSpending Mr.
Breeze from practice for a per-
iod of one year.
Such were the orderly proceed
ings, legally conducted, and in
which Mr.. Breeze was accorded
every right, privilege and cour-
tesy, which 1t was proper to ex-
pect or demand. Mr.. Breeze sta
ted while testifying, "I know all
you gentlemen, I know you are
honorable gentlemen, and fair
minded, and men of experience,
and that you acted sincerely in
this matter"
Mr.. Squires in the article men
toned, states: "The action for
which he CMr. Breeze) is taken
to task could work no injustice
to any person. It was indiscreet
and technically a violation of the
more or less haZy ethics of the
legal profession" On the con-
trary. the alteration of a public
record is one Of the most serious
crimes that can be committed
against the administration OF
Justice, and is more aggravated
when committed by judicia
officer. Our Statute (Revised Laws
1912. Section 281D, makes it
felony. punishable by impriSon-
ment at the State Prison, for
term not less than one and not
more than eleven years, and by
fine not to exceed $5,000.00. 1t
is therefore not a question of
legal ethics, but an offense against
every man, woman and child i'll
Nevada, all of whom are very
much concerned with the integ-
rity of our judicial records.
AS to the "haZy ethics of the
legal profession, the American
Bar Association at Seattle, Wash
ington, August 81, 1908, adopted
canon of professional ethics. The
preamble in part reads as follows:
"In American, where the sta
bility Of Courts and of all de-
partments of government rests
upon the approval of the peo-
pie, 1t is peculiarly essential
that the system for establish
ing and dispensing Justice be
develo ped to a high point OF
efficiency and so maintained
that the public shall have alb
solute confidence in the integ-
rity and impartiality Of its
administration. The future of
the Republic, to great extent,
depends upon our maintenance
