Murderers
Continued From Second Page

Continued From Second Page
however, distinguished, arises to say that
capital punishment is no deterrent it is
proper to ask if he is basing his statment
upon communities where the law Is en-
forced, as in England, or upon New York,
where in a scientific sense, the law prac-
tically does not exist.
Spasmodically, here and there, an at
tempt is made to discourage murder. In
1919 Chicago, little sickened by her
record of a murder every day, decided to
try enforcing the law. She tested the as
sertion that the fear of punishment is
no deterrent. One hundred persons were
in Jail charged with homicide. In the
next year IA death sentences were passed
and II persons were actually executed.
Considering the number of murders
which had been committed, this was not
wholesale and cruel slaughter, although
it doubtless distressed some people who
had regarded the deaths of three or four
hundred of the murderers' victims with
stony indifference.
IN 1920-next year-the number Of homi-
cides decreased by one-half, and this
decrease continued in 1921. The follow
ing year there was but one execution, and
the rate of murders promptly mounted
toward its old figure.
What had happened in 1920-212 Had
their glands suddenly ceased to turn men
into murderers2 Had the laws of hered-
ity been suspended? Had the climate
changed? 4 Had the old free-shooting
ideals of the frontier been forgotten?
Mr. Clarence Darrow and his adniring
coterie are sure that man is a machine,
and that he can't possibly resist stabbing
or shooting those who he dislikes or those
who possess property he covets. Why can
he resist with such complete success II
it becomes risky to do otherwise? -
The humanitarian who displays his
bleeding heart, his tear-stained cheeks
in public when murderer like Gerald
Chapman or Hickman is executed is mis-
taking fabbiness for something finer. To
abandon the sheep to the increasing
packs Of wolves, to withdraw ourselves
into what we hope is safety and to call
this neglect by lovely names-this is sim
ply one phase of the weakening of our
moral fiber.
Children are being shown, day in and
day out, plays which lead to the conelu-
sion that the police never arrest the
guilty anybody on earth may be
guilty, but never the prisoner. This may
be joyous in the eyes of the type of Com
munist agitator,, who cares as little for
the welfare Of some particular convict
as he cares for the truth-his only object
being to discredit government. Public
opinion is led astray by fondness for
seeing notorious cases as they would be
in novel or in the movies" The ten
dency to twist facts into a romance prob
ably accounts for the attitude of many
people in such eases as those associated
with the namea Hall-Mill and Sacco-
Vanzetti.
SO 1t would be well If literary and dra-
matte critics, who so wittily attack senti-
mentality In the arts, would urge novel;
