States Attorneys
Claim Victory In
! Defeating Measure
Miss Lavinia Engle Lauded BY
Herbert O'COnor For Hold
ing Up Bill


A decided victory was won by the
States Attorneys Association of
Maryland, under the leadership of
States Attorney Herbert r. O'Conor,
of Baltimore City, in defeating the
proposed Bill before the Legislature
which would give an additional right
sof appeal to convicted criminals. This
bill introduced by Delegate Hoffer-
bert, was designed to grant the
right of appeal 10 the Court Of
Appeals from the action of the Trial
Court, in refusing to grant motion
for a new trial following in the
Circuit Court.
Miss Lavinia Engle of Forest Glen,
member Of the House delegation from
Montgomery County was praised by
Mr.. O'Conor for helping defeat the
proposed measure.
Members of the State Senate and
House of Delegates were publicly
commended by States Attorney
eO'Conor for their efforts on the floor
of the Assembly and in committee
chambers in fighting the bill.
The bill was rejected by the Legis-
Hature after an extended contest

quently to Annapolis and appeared
before committees of both the Sen
ate and House, along with other
members of the Association, and
brought every effort to bear in
having the bill defeated. Character
izing the defeat of the Criminal APP
peal Bill as a "signal victory in the
cause of criminal Justice, States
Attorney O'Conor today gave public
expression of his thanks TO the
members of the Senate and House
of Delegates who cooperated in re-
ssisting the efforts to have the bill
passed.
"The measure would have resulted
in a most unfortunate setback to
the successful efforts made in Mary
land to have justice proceed fairly
and swiftly. After years of deter
mined effort TO effect a system
whereby the interests of the public
would be safeguarded, we are anxious
that this work should not be I'M
done by changing the procedure so
radically. If the bill had become a
law, it would have been a definite
step backward in the general effort
to bring about more expeditions
handling of criminal cases. Of
course, we are just as anxious to
preserve the rights of defendant
as anyone else, but under the pres
ent system the rights of an indicted
man are amply protected.
Il wish to publicity extend thanks
10 the County Senator'S Ridgely P.
Melvin, of Anne Arundel, and Mel
son H. Fooks, of Caroline, who
steadfastly supported our efforts to
defeat the bill. In the House of
Delegates there were many who raj
lied to our cause who deserve the
highest commentator. Mr.. C. Damer
McKendrick, Miss Lavinia Engle,
Miss Mary E. w. Risteau, Louis
Binder and others made valiant eff
forts TO prevent this measure from
passage against the power forces
which were striving for its enact
ment.
ut is also gratifying to be able

as the Baltimore Criminal Justice
Commission, the Grand Jurors Asso-
citation, the Civilian Club and The
Old Town Merchants and Manufac-
turers' Association, interested them
SELVES so actively in the efforts to
prevent the enactment of this pro-
posed law"

SPLIT LOOMING
ON BEER

Democratic and Republican
members Of the House District
Committee were split today over
the proposed liberalization Of the
District beer bill.
Representative Loring M. Black
CD, of New York, who spon-
sored a District beer bill in the
last session Of Congress, declared
today that the Republican pro.
posal to liberalize the District
law would bring back the sa.
LOOM"
It was suggested by Represen-
tative Everett M. Dirksen (R0, of
Illinois, that the law should be
made less stringent so that ION
sale" licensees, who pay 500 for
their license, should be given
both on and off sale privileges.
The off sale license is twice as
expensive as the on sale.
Black said, however, that any
such liberalization would defeat
the purpose of this clause of the
legislation and would pave the
way for the return of the saloon.
For the same reason Black
criticized Dirksen's proposal to
include little stores and cafes in
the clause which restricts on sale
licenses to restaurants, hotels
and clubs.

were dead today in the tornado
stricken area Of the upper
Cumberland valley along the
Kentucky!Ten border where
twin storms cut a wide swath Of
destruction.
Relief workers, hindered by
severed lines of communication
and muddy and tree-strewn roads,
were unable to estimate the num-
her Of injured.
The death toll in Kentucky
was placed at SO and in Ten
nessee 26.
At Beatty Swamps, Overton
County, Tenn, where the two
whirling tornadoes converged, the
loss Of life was heaviest. Rescuers
had found 20 bodies in the
wreckage of the town. 1t was
feared that the death toll in this
area would be increased as rescue
parties penetrated farther into
the devastated area.
Seventh Storm
The storm was the seventh that
has swept the Southland in re-
cent weeks with a total loss Of
$50 lives. Converging at Beatty
Swamps, the tornadoes swept
Adair and Monroe counties in
Kentucky and Pickett and Wilson
counties in Tennessee.
At HopkinSville, KY, is persons
were killed. Ten lost theft lives
At Russell Springs, KY.
Whole communities were DESC
lated by the gale. Houses were
whiSked away, acres of trees
felled. and in the Beatty Swamps
area, all lines of communication
destroyed. Hardly a house was
left standing there.
Doctors Use Horses
Doctors and relief workers had
to rely on horses to carry them
into the stricken communities
over muddy, tree-strewn roads.
Hearses were unable to penetrate
the backwoods areas.
At Russell Springs, KY, Mrs.
Henry Smith was killed outright
by the tornado and her child,
blown away by the wind, could
not be found.
Among the eight dead at
Tompkinsville, KY, were the Rev.
