RULING MAY FREE
CHICAGO CONv|CTS
Supreme Court Decision
May Void Indictments
of Last Two Years.
BY the Associated Press.

BY the Associated Press.
CHICAGO, February 24.-Convic-
tions in virtually every important
criminal case in Cook County during
the last two years were threatened
and some 700 pending criminal in
dictments were placed in jeopardy by
a State Supreme Court ruling that
Cook County's method of selecting
grand juries is illegal.
The court decision, handed down
on a comparatively obscure robbery
case. will be used as a lever in an
effort to nullify the conviction for
kidnapping John Factor Of Roger Touhy
and two co-detendants Defense Coun-
sci William Scott Stewart announced
insult Case Involved.
Other principal cases involved in
clude the indictments pending against
Samuel and Martin insult, the Balm
Bank fraud cases. the Illinois Life
Insurance Co. fraud case. the sani-
tary district ''whoopee case" the
TINT" racket cases. the Wynekoop
murder trial, and the Gail Swolley and
Frank Souder kidnapping case
Meanwhile, the State made hasty
preparations to combat the effects of
such ruling.
States Attorney Thomas J. Court
ney announced he would move
for rehearing and ask the Supreme
Court, as a matter of public policy, to
reverse itself
Attorney Lewis F. Jacobsen sought
remedy in another direction. an
nouncing the State Assembly would be
asked to validate all present conuc-
tions and indictments
The Supreme Courts ruling was in
the case of Jack Lieber, convicted of
robbery.
Procedure Varied.
The Supreme Court held that the
grand jury must be composed of the
first % men whose names are drawn
from the jury list. The practice in
Cook County has been for the jury
commissioners to draw from 60 to 100
names from the list, submitting these
to the chief justice of the Criminal
Court, who selects the jury from the
larger group of names.
The court cited that the present
practice eliminates the element of
chance in selection. and makes ;,ossi-

Sunday school lesson for Sep
TENDER 9. 2 Chronicles 3O:1-9, Is.
Golden text-God is gracious
and merciful e Chronicles 3O:9):
Hezekiah, thirteenth king OF
Judah, held the throne wisely and
acceptably for twenty-nine years.
Upon his accession at twenty-five,
he at once renewed the ancient
covenant, reopened the Temple,
re-organized its service, and sum-
moned his people for the observ-
ance of the greatest Passover in
the history of the Hebrew mon
archy.
THE PLAN FOR THE
PASSOVER Oversees 1-5)
Preparation for revival was
made in the plan for the Passover.
The king desired a revival. He
gave his personal influence to it
by writing letters. He included in
the invitation, not merely his own
people in the southern kingdom,
but all in the northern kingdom
who might desire to attend the
central sanctuary, particularly II
Samaria had already fallen before
Assyria. He secured the co-opera-
ton Of his associates nearest the
throne. He sought the law to as
certain what should be done and
whether the postponement of the
Passover under the circumstances
would be justifiable. Finding that
delay was Scriptural in order to
enable the priests to make proper
ceremonial preparations and to
give the people time to assemble
from all parts of the land, the
Passover was planned for the sec
ond month instead of the first as
originally instituted. The author
tiles were encouraged and so the
decree was written for publica-
ton throughout the full length of
the land, inviting everybody to as
semble for the feast which had
not been kept by Israel in great
numbers since its institution in
Egypt and it's two historic observ-
anceS in the wilderness and at
Gilgal as they entered the land
of Canaan.
THE LETTER SENT THE
PEOPLE Oversees 6-9)
Proclamation of revival was
embodied in the letter sent the
people. In that letter dispatched
by the kings couriers into every
part of the country was five
fold summons: % There was a
call to repentance, urging the peo-
pie to turn again to the God Of
their fathers and assuring them
that in blessing he would return
to the remnant that had escaped
the wrath and rapacity of the As
syrian kings. (2) There was call
to reform, so that they would not
follow in the false steps Of their
fathers and brethren who forsook
Jehovah and worshiped idols and
sank into deSolation and disgrace.
CO There was call to submis-
siveness to the divine will which
would lead the people to yield
themselves wholly to Jehovah. (4
There was call to service which
would bring the people of Jehovah
into his sanctuary and enlist them
faithfully in his cause. 60 There
was a call to reward, for peni-
tence is not in vain, humility
wings its way upward, and the
mercy of God is assured those
who seek him.

were the one who was yellow this had enough, was going home.
 "Wait," Jean commanded, land listen to me. Herbert Cummings did freeze to the controls this morning, causing that crash. And I can prove it." The reporters edged closer to her. They did not want to miss any of her words now. Their pencils were flashing again. Ut was a custom in the wartime flying schools for the 1n- structor to bend the throttle in his cockpit way down when he was caught aloft with a student who had frozen to the controls. It was the instructors last message to ms mates on the ground. It meant the student had frozen. It was a crude method of providing an explana- ton for that kind of an accident in the early days. It left no doubt as to the cause.'
 Jean hesitated to let the full significance of what she was say ing sink into the group about her.
 "And that was one of the little tricks about flying instruction which Bill Cantwell taught Joe."
 Jean's eyes stopped Cummings from interrupting.
 "And Joe remembered 1t this morning. The throttle in his cock pit is bent way down. Take look at it. You can see 1t in the hangar. The wreckage had not been tam- pered with. The airport manager has seen to that"
 Then it was that Cummings broke down and admitted he had been terrified in that spin. And all through his convalescence Joe never tined of hearing Jean tell, as her hanhs nestled in his, how Bil Cantwell, who had been listen. ing to the conversation. explained in the kind manner which had en. deared him to everybody that many excellent pilots had frozen to the controls for momen or two at some time in their careers and that the individual was not always to blame. And that was why the newspapers next day were not at all hard on Herbert Cummings. Copyright 1893, by New Syndicate

her. But this Cummings! He had twitted her about his swaggering about the airport. He had mention ed his flair for riding boots and fancy brooches as flying costume. A grandstand aviator. he had called him.
 With 8 woman's instinct Jean had recognized at once the true meaning of Joes gibes. She had pointed her pretty nose upward and had walked directly from him to Cummings' side. Joe now found these twistings and turnings in the air soothed the hurts inflicted by loss of her friendship, companion ship and interest.
 Jean continued her flying but in ships owned by Joe's rival at the airport. Herbert Cummings, ob- livious to the part he was playing in the little drama, continued his lessons with Joe and entertained himself evenings with dates with Jean and with most of the girls who had arrived at the Summer colony. This was turning out to be a particularly amusing summer for him.
 One day Jean was standing dWhWdTUiy HUI ldI IEOHi Diii Sdht- well waiting for Cummings and Joe to return from a training flight when a hoarse cry came from the figure huddled on the bench. She had greeted Bill perfunctorily. For some time now she had felt em- barrassed in his presence. She | usually avoided him but this time she had unintentionally wandered close to the cripple's favorite seat.
 "They're spinning" Bill had cried. The half dozen individuals | at the door of the hangar froze where they stood. A spin was nothing unusual, but the tone of
 Bills voice meant something had gone wrong.
 Crash Puts Joe
 In Hospital
 Over beyond the trees which | fringe the further boundary of the
 field Joe's two-plane ship was
 twisting downward. Jean saw they | were too low to avoid a crash. She
 sprang into action. Her car was in motion by the time she heard the | sickening crash of wood and metal
 in the field beyond the trees and
 she was the first to dash across
 the field.
 The news from the hospital later
 that day was that Joe would live. He had been badly smashed up, was still conscious. Herbert Cummings was all right except for
 a few cuts. Joe in the front seat had received the harder blow from
