SideLights OF
Brady Trial
By HUNTER OSBORNE
HarnlA G+nff Wrtfnr

E1GAdl0 2AdAA WAANNA
USTIN. Jan. 2l.-In a dreary,
u drab setting overture was played
Yesterday for one Of Texas
greatest legal dramas.-"The Brady
Case"
No detective yarn, no movie ever
promised more thrills than this ira
gedy from real life.
Judge John w. Brady, silver
tongued, silver haired jurist Is on
trial for the death Of Lehlia High
smith. clever and attractive young
s~tenographer. She was found with
a mortal knife wound in her t-east
on Saturday night, Nov. 80.
Henry W. Brooks, 24-year-old pro-
scouting attorney OF Travis County.
who looks like a high school boy, Is
demanding the death penalty.
He is assisted by one lawyer, also
in his twenties but more mature
looking, Hardy Hollis, assistant
county attorney. Another heavy
set. middle -aged and bald Roy G..
Archer, county attorney, completes
the prosecution staff.
On the other side are some OF the
greatest criminal lawyers IN Texas.
All Of them are men past middle age
which serves to accentuate the
youthful appearance Of the Chief
Prosecutor.
Perhaps the most prominent Of
than is Dayton Moses, famous for
his successful defense Of Rev. Frank
j. Norris in his trial Of murder. held
in this same old dark, dingy court
room. Moses is of average height,
very bald, crafty-looking and soft
spoken.
Judge z. A. Berry. a venerable
and distinguished appearing man, Is
expected, along with Hoses, to con-
duct most Of the battle for Brady's
acquital. He also is quite bald. His
scant white locks are worn very long
after the fashion Of many OF Texas
best known jurists.
The presiding Judge, J. .. Moore,
Is a mar about fifty-five years old
with greytsh brown hair. He speakS
in a deep, rich voice, easily under
stood.
One n the most dramatic scenes
OF the many the trial will have was
enacted yesterday unpoticed BY most
Of the spectators.
Judge Brady sat near the end OF
a long table. To the left were his
attorneys. On his left, close be-
side him. was Mrs. Brady. Most Of
the time his arm was slipped
through hers. Occasionally she
would release his hand to brush
back an unruly lock Of silver grey

He enumerated accomplishment
Of the 40th and 41st legislatures,
giving special reference 10 the
things IL did for education. judicial
reform. highway construction, re-
organization Of state departments
and prison welfare.
He pointed out that the tax rate
for 1927 and 1923, totalling sl.3i
for the two years, was the lowest
state tax rate for any biennium in
more than q decade" adding the
tax rate OF Ga cents for this year
makes n three year total OF sI.99.
or an average annual rate OF so Is

Reviewing the present financial

comptroller estimated that the gen

tons were expended.
But warrants are never drawn

many appropriations are never
completely expended, and ii Is safe
to say there will be "a cash balance
to the credit OF the general revenuc
fund at the end OF the present fix
