NOT 4 PROMISE

CHOULD one keep pledge given to
y thief?
The question arises from the expert
ence of Hollywood actress, victim OF
two burglars who entered her home and
forced her to give over valuable Jewelry.
AS they were about to depart, the bur-
glars prepared to bind and gag the ac-
tress and her maid. The actress begged
them not to do it, because of her delicate
condition, and upon their demand gave
her promise thtt if they would not bind
and gag her she would wait half an
hour after their departure before giving
the alarm.
She kept her word, according to re-
ports, and the police are now looking for
the burglars.
The actress may have a high regard for
her given word, but the promise she gave
was practically eXacted through force,
and such a promise never can be con-
sidered binding
1t is improper to say that she did
wrong, for under similar conditions any
one of us might have acted just as she
did If fear for her safety caused her
to respect the promise eXacted from her,
none can blame her, but if she acted as
she did solely because she had promised,
she acted very foolshly.
There is nothing to be gained by re-
specting ones word given to those whose
actions place them outside the law. They
are beyond the pale and pledges or prom
ises given to them under force, cannot
be considered binding.
