legislative Apathy

State legislatures, being dominated
by lawyers, are apathetic toward pro-
posals for the improvement of cri1ni-
nal procedure and seldom display any
interest in projects for removing the
technicalities and delays from the
path of justice, says George w. Wick
ersham, chairman OF President Hoo
ver's law enforcement commission.
Wickersham, who made this state
ment at a meeting of the American
Law Institute in Chicago the other
day, intimated that this apathy might
arise because so many of the lawyer
politicians have extensive practices in
the criminal courts and find all of
these technicalities very helpful to
them.
This is something that the ordinary
layman has often suspected; not
often, however, does the charge come
from 50 eminent an authority. It is
a matter that the American Bar as
ISOLATION and it's subsidiary bodies
ought to consider very earnestly and
carefully.

WashingtOn's Sacrifices


The Golden Book magazine, in Its
current issue, reprints the letters
which George Washington wrote to
Martha Washington when the Cont
mental Congress made him comman-
der-in -chief Of the Revolutionary
armies; and it is extremely interest
ing to notice that the step filled him
with indispensable concern" so that
he wrote his wife that Il should en-
Joy more real happiness in one month
with you at home than have the
most distant prospect Of finding
abroad"
That sticks in ones mind, not only
because it shows just how the man
felt about the responsibility that was
given him, but also because it proves,
once more, that the man to whom a
great job is given is not, usually, able
to concern himself with his private
Washington had to sacrifice much
to fight and win the Revolution. He
won Immortality, but he gave up
things for which his country, CRATE
full as it might be, could never repay
him.
