CORNISH WANTS
LYNCH VICTIM
FOR LIFE TEST
Such a Subject Would Be
Ideal, Says Doctor Who

BERKELEY, Cal, Oct. 18.-Dr.
Robert E. Cornish, scientific expert

pertinent, said today that a lynch
ing victim would be an ideal sub
ject.
DR.. Cornish explained that in
usual hangings on prison gallows
the condemned mans neck is
broken.
with his spinal cord damaged,
the subject wouldn't be much Of
a man, even though we did revive
him." he explained. IF arrange
ments could be made to execute a
condemned man by Strangulation
something in the manner common
to lynching parties, the experiment
might be conducted successfully"
Chances Appear Remote
His chances of obtaining a hui
man subject appeared remote, as
John Hawkins, Pasadena man con-
demned to death, denied having Of
fered his body for the experiment.
DR.. Cornish tried his resuscitation
method on dogs and brought them
back to life after asphyXiation. He
has refused to consider offers such
as that of Dan Woolley, former
Berkeley policeman, who said he
is willing to let the scientist kill
I.;~a %Ioox1 +rxy RI 1~oNityn him DYs
Cornish said he wants only dead
men for his test and prefers the
body of a man executed by the state
for murder.
His request to try the experiment
on the body of a criminal asphyx-
lated in lethal gas chambers of
Arizona, Nevada and Colorado was
turned down by the authorities.
U. S. Official Opposed
"a man once hanged must stay
hanged; he can not be restored to
life under the law" Frank Sykes,
president of the California state
prison board, said. IF DR.. Cornish
did succeed in bringing him back
to life we would have to execute
him over again."
Attorney General U. S. Webb said
that there 'is no use talking about
something which isn't going to
happen" y
The Rev. Julian McPheeters,
head of the church federation,
was quoted as saying that there
would be no real test of the Corn
ish method unless the subject had
been dead three days like Lazarus
in the Bible version.

the psychological influence exerted
on the potential criminal.
When state police organizations
we're founded in Pennsylvania and
Massachusetts, the members of these
forces had difficulty in cooperating
with the local police of large cities,
or the sheriffS in those counties
where sheriffs we're active. Other
states have run into the same
trouble but as time went on and as
the various state police forces con-
tinued to perform c~reditably, CO.
operation between the state police
and other law enforcing agencies
improved.
This is particularly true in New
JERSEY and in Massachusetts,. In
New Jersey, the Police Academy,
where municipal policemen are
trained under the supervision of the
state police, has done much to add
to this cooperation. There is a GER
tain amount of confidence between
the various police bodies and Jeal-
ousies often prevalent in other states
are for the most part discarded be-
cause of this closer contact. In
Massachusetts a series of confer
ences plus a bit of legislative action
has brought members of the state
and municipal police closer to-
gether.
It must be clearly borne in mind
that all state police departments
operate solely in rural sections and
only enter metropolitan districts
when their aid is requested by the
local police or sheriff. However, due
to the closer cooperation between
local and state police officers, the
latter are being called in more ire
quently.
In Indiana this cooperation was
slow to materialize but in the last
six months great Roadway has been
made.
It must be remembered that the
more conscious persons become of a
state police force the more likely
it is to be used. The vast distri-
button of personnel in states like
New York and Pennsylvania has
added to confidence in such forces
with the result that local authori-
ties turn to these organizations
when they believe it is necessary.
Today, especially in the east, one
will find almost perfect co-ordina-
ton between large cities and stale
police forces, between local authori-
ties and the state police as we'll as
between the various state police
forces themselves. The advent of
teletype, the confidence the public
The Indianapolis times. [volume] (Indianapolis [Ind.]) 1922-1965, 1934-10-18

Every state police department issues
definite and strict orders to this
effect and if any of these rules are
broken charges may be preferred
against the offending officer. It is
a fact that the great majority of
men engaged in this calling are
courteous to the extreme. That
does not mean that desperate
criminals are greeted by salaams
and %salutations, for every person is
dealt with according to his char
acter. A motto with many of them
is, BE ready to be nice as the
incest person and as tough as the
toughest"
A thorough policeman seldom
misjudgeS individuals, and it is sell
dom that complaints are lodged
against a trooper for incivilities.
Many of these details may seem
useless, but they are more RESPONSE
BILE for the success of various forces
than anything imaginable. Unless
persons realize that a police force
exists, little heed will be taken of
it. Consciousness Of such a law en-
forcing agency is guaranteed by
smart uniforms together with a
widespread distribution of person
mel.
These factors in turn go to form
a better understanding between
other organizations and establish a
higher coordination of cooperation
with the public in general in the
administration and enforcement of
laws relating to public safety.

who comprise the personnel and
management Of this home-owned
and operated company.
All improvements and construc-
ton have been under the personal
supervision of Chester H. Jackson,
president of company. Ideas have
been cleaned from all over the coun-
try. indianapolis products have
been used almost 100 per cent. Such
a program could only be possible
with an organization that is con-
centrated, such as Standard is, in
one county.
The old-timers can make a COM
parison when they recall Standards
first store at New Jersey and Wash
ington streets. Here is 1897 was in
troduced the cash and carry idea
and the resultant savings in prices
of quality foods. Since those days
the Standard has saved indianapolis
food buyers millions of dollars.
The Indianapolis times. [volume] (Indianapolis [Ind.]) 1922-1965, 1934-10-18

The progress made has been close
ly watched by grocery interests and
many of these features have been
utilized elsewhere.
Even to the point of display the
quality Of the foods is emphasized.
The paramount thought III the con-
ception and planning of each sue

started before the bank holiday and

tradesmen such as carpenters,
painters, electricians and plumbers.

The above modernized Standard
food store is typical of the results
Of Standard Grocery Company's far
flung modernization program. This
store is located at 419 East Wash
ington street. The glass front is
the product Of the Marietta Glass
Company, Indianapolis, and is an
example of what can be done with
glass.
The Standard Grocery Company
has revolutionized the old-fash-
toned grocery in Indianapolis and
was the first to introduce such
features as stainless steel, electric
refrigeration for fruits and veg
etables as we'll as meats, perfected
ventilation, daylight lighting, ter

Breaks Home-course Par.

4 LREADY, so early in the year, the
n young man has played the Wash
ington course in SO strokes, the
only amateur to break par on the lay
out this year, and judged by the way
he is hitting the apple he can't go far
above par. Equipped with a new set
of clubs, from woods down through
the irons, Tommy is going to be an
outstanding competitor in the Wash
ington Club invitation tourney sched-
uled to start May l, if he continues
to remain at anywhere near his pres
ent scoring pace. Just as a sample of
how far and straight the lad is hit
ting the ball, we played with him at
Washington a day or two ago and saw
him get home on both the par 5 holes
OF the course-the fourth and fif-
teenth-with drive and a No. iron.
Combine hitting like that with ac-
curacy and good putting and it's hard
to see where any one can lick him.
Tommy lacks experience. He never
has gone far in invitation tourna-
ments or other big events in other
years, but then he never has played
as well nor with as much confidence
as he now does. Give him a good start
in any tournament this year and he
is going to be hard to lick by any
man.
