NAVY POPULATION IS INDIGNANT
Picking Campaign Staff Puzzles c. O.P. as Three
 Problems Push to Fore
By BYRON PRICE (Chicf of Bureau, The Associated Press, Washingt0n.)

Republican disagreements over selection of a high command for the coming campaign are approach ing an acute stage.
 In the immediate foreground of the party reorganization problem are three primary difficulties-a Shortage of campaign funds, the threat of aa insurgent bolt and the prohibition issue.
 If the G. O. P. were advertising in the want ad column the de- sired qualifications for a national chairman would read something like this:
 Wanted-A man who is close enough to business to be able to fill ID the campaign chest; who is not sufficiently close to busi- ness to arouse further antagoniSm in the liberal wing of the party; and whose views on prohibition will not handicap him in placatnig either vets or dlys.
 That is a large order. To date no applicant has quite come up to specifications.
 The campaign, of course, rests with President Hoover. He seems to remain thoroughly undecided as be listens almost daily to a wide variety of advfces.
 He probably will wait until af- ter the June conventions to make up his mind. but it is a question whether the intervening weeks will simplify his problems.
 Chance For Hurley Seen
 It became apparent some time ago that the present chairman, Senator Simon D. Fess, was slated for retirement.
 Fess' militant stand for prolli- bition has stirred insistent pro- tests from moist-to-wet party lead CTS. Consolidation, a quality needed in bounteous measure by any chairman, is not the long suit of this Ohio college professor.
 For long time it appeared that another Ohioan, Postmaster Gen. eral Walter F. Brown, was cer- tain to succeed to the chairman ship. But he is strongly suspected of leaning almost as much to- ward the vets as Fess does to- ward the drys, and besides he is not very anxious to give up his cabinet post.
 Patrick Hurley of Oklahoma, the Secretary of War, would take the job if it were offered to him, and several influential Republicans

duet investigation to ascertain the facts and often
without experience in criminal matters. Thus han
dicapped, he is forced to contest against the I'M
limited power and and prestige possessed
by the public prosecutors Office.
Truly this is spectacle of the state bringing all
its power and wealth to bear against weak and
powerless accused person, who may in fact be limo
cent Of the charge brought against him.
Tho state should be just diligent in attempting
to prove the innocent it is in attempting to
prove him guilty. Still it maintains the powerful
Offices of public prosecutor to represent the prosecu-
ton and leaves the INDECENT accused to present his
defense as best he may The truth is obvious that
if it is the primary function of the state to seek the
TRUTH then that function is not fully performed I'M
less, side by side with the Office of public prosecutor
to prosecute the charges there exists also the Office
of public defender to defend against the charges
This in brief is the basis for the public defender
idea"
The present system of assigned counsel is highly
defective Assigned attorneys often are young mex
perienced, and incompetent A class of undesirable
lawyers hovcrs about courtrooms eager for assign
ment with the sole purpose of getting much as
they can from the accused and his relatives and then
lying down on the job.
Such conditions lead high-grade attorneys, who
otherwise might accept defense assignments to avoid
the responsibility.
The public defender is not new institution. This
Office created in Spain five centuries ago. Among
other countries adopting it Hungary Norway and
Argentina. The latter has developed the idea and
practice to high degree.
The system has been established in California,
Connecticut, Minnesota and Nebraska and in several
cities, Portland Ore; Columbus, Cincinnati, Dayton,
and Indianapolis.
The obvious advantages, from the standpoint of
both justice and economy, are the following: Cd
Clearly guilty offenders are urged to plead guilty thus
saving unnecessary trials; CD adequate defense is
provided for all good cases; CD jury trial often is
waived; "a tried promptly when reached
on the calendar; 60 tried more expertly
and expeditiously; CO. great economies result from
the foregoing; Cd trial judges may trust the public
defender in advice to sentencing; CD the usual
chicanery of criminal trials has logical basis for
EXISTENCE (9) there is great reduction in the prob
ability that poor and innocent defendant will be
-railroaded."
1t is to be hoped that this product of civilized
criminal Jurisprudence will not be long III establish

Police Rioters

Public order throughout the nation rests in the
hands of the police today, in special sense. Fol
months millions of workers have been unable to find
employment Local relief efforts alone have been in
adequate; and the government refuses aid
AS time goes on, earnest and women are
hoping more and more fervently that some way will
be found to meet the situation before the needy
goaded by hunger into acting for themselves
At such time, resort to wisdom instead of force
is thrice essential Police should be than ever
alert to protect the civil liberties of the people, reuc
tant to do anything that might turn discomfort to
frenzy.

In Washington Saturday two score unarmed per-
sons sought to picket Japans embassy bearing ban
ners denouncing japanese imperialism in Manchuria
and Shanghai slogans similar to headlines that have
appeared in nearly all newspapers in the United
States
The washington police turned the peaceful dem
onstration into riot broke heads right and left;
caused news photographs of young woman lying
unconscious on the pavement to be broadcast, to-
gether with news reel films of street fighting; ar
rested twenty; and capped the official rowdyism by
throwing the pckets attorney out of the police sta
ton when he tried to exercise his rights and theirs
in their defense.
1t is only few weeks since Brgader-G General
Pelham D. Glassford chief of the Washington police
made himself famous from Maine to California by
refusing to be stampeded into using force against
15OO hunger marcherS who, under his protection sang
the "Internationale" the Capitol plaza.
He destroyed that reputation Sunday. BY example
he invited police in all cities where starvation stalks
to provoke the reign of violence.

The Public Defender

Shall the poor man have fair break before the
law? This is the of the public defender issue.
1t is obvious that the poor are at a great dis
advantage today in all litigation. This fact has been
emphasized by jurists eminent as Chief Justices
Taft and Hughes and Elhu Root 1t was proved by
vast bill of particulars in Reginald Heber Smiths
Justice and the Poor"
The public defender movement has grown up as
the answer to this challenge. The idea underlying
it is well summarized by Charles Mshkin in an
article in the journal of Criminal Law and Grim
inology:"
1T is automatic that Of the primary duties
of the government is to administer justice Rich and
poor should be equal plane when before the
bar of justice; but in practice are they equal?
The rich has his corps of brilliant attorneys

The poor man, the other hand, is helpless
without funds often not understanding what the pro-
ceedings are all about and is forced to rely for his
protection upon an attorney assigned to represent
him without compensation.

may be- he is handicapped by lack of funds to con-
