Insanity is the plea of the de-
Tense. In questioning prospective
jurors, defense counsel stressed the
point that no juror should be pre-
JUDGED against defendant plead
ing insanity. On the other hand,
the prosecution asked each if he
had any scruples against inflicting
the death penalty.
While a victrola played dance
tunes in the Watts home, the young
husband induced his wife to go with
him to an upstairs bedroom where
he welded the ak with deadly eff
feet. Lighting cigaret, he came
down stairs and told the girls
mother and others what he had
done.
In its opening statement, the de-
Tense indicated that an attack
would be made on the character of
the slain girl-wife and that evidence
would show traces of insanity in
Johnson's family. 1t was indicated

VETS LABELED
AS 'INTOLERANT'
BY WICKERSHAM
DryS Have Taken Report TO
Heart, He Says in
Boston Speech.

By United Press
BOSTON. March 12.-George w.
Wickersham, chairman of the Hoo
yer law enforcement commission,
praised prohibitionists and criti-
cised anti-prohibitionists for their
reception of the commissions pro-
hibition report, in a speech today
before the Boston Chamber of
Commerce.
II should have thought the VETS
would have derived more encour-
agement from the report and the
separate statements of the commits
sioners attached to it than the
dryS,'" he said.
He explained that the most
vehement criticism" had come from
the anti-prohibitionists, while pro-
hibitionists, prohibition organiza-
lions, and the dry press" were ION
the whole, friendly to the report
Apparently, a large body of anti
prohibitionists expected the COM
mission to find a way for them to
obtain liquor with ease and were
enraged when we failed to do so,
Wickersham said in his speech
which was a defense of the COM
missions work.
Takes Criticism to Heart
This was the chairmans first ut
terance on the controversial report
since it was issued.
Prohibitionists, he said, seem to
have taken to heart the criticism
of the methods adopted by prohibit
ton advocates in the past, and to
have realized from the description
of existing conditions the need OF
rallying their forces and reconsider
ing their plans in the light of the
facts set forth"
I'm the past, there was much well
founded complaint Of the extreme
intolerance of the prohibitionists
This peculiar characteristic of late
appears to have been appropriated
by their opponents.
Much has been made in public
discussion of the differences between
the conclusions formulated by the
commission itself in the report
which was signed by ten of it's mem.
bers, and the opinions expressed by
individual commissioners in theil
separate statements annexed to the
report.
"Integral-NOt Misleading"
'I think a careful study of al
documents will satisfy any impartia,
mind that these differences mainly
are confined to the remedies sug-
gested for the i'll recognized in the
report"
Referring to criticism Of the con-
illusions Of the report, which op-
posed repeal of the eighteenth
amendment, as misleading" Wick
erSham said these conclusions care
an integral part of the report"
Some Of us, of whom I am one
feared that any notifications pro-
posed dn the individual opinions
inevitably would lead to the resora-
ton of the licensed saloon, with al
the evils of the institution in the
past, and, therefore, were unwilling
at this time to abandon all further
efforts to bring about a general OBJ.

ence.
