Fears Innocent Mon
Sent to Chair

To the Editor Of The Times:
Possibly one Of the most sensa-
tional climaxes In American his
tory has come to q finish with the
execution Of Bruno Richard
Hauptmann, condemned hdnap-
per and murderer Of the Lind
bergh baby. The arm Of the Law
reaches far and wide put in my
estimation. In the Lindbergh
baby case it did not reach far
enough to brag about. My spe.
cific reasons IS to why are:
1. It cost the State Of New Jer-
sey thousands of dollars to con-
Wet and kill Bruno Hauptman,
while If that same money were
given to relief agencies, local
authorities would have derived
more benefits.
2. Did capital punishment or
murder send him to the chair?
They have killed a man without
knowing whether he was a muir
derer or not and, folks, I don't
see how they can send an limo
cent man to the chair. I mean
that the law never has proven
he ever even as much as saw
or touched the Lindbergh baby.

TIERS TO THE EDITOR OF THE WASHINGTON TIMES In

It will be recalled that several
weeks ago q number Of jurors
that were called on q certain case
were dismissed for Directing to
capital punishment. Any respect
able and refined man knows that
capital punishment Is unfair to
human nature. Who knows that
many an innocent persons life
was taken for o crime they did
not commit.
The law could never repay the
debt, II the real murderer Of the
Lndbergh baby was caught and
Hauptmann proved innocent. Gov
ernor Hoffman Of New Jersey, q
man Of intelligence, showed he has
more brains then all the law put
together BY not wanting to kill an
innocent man. Here's hoping, II
he WA. and Is proven innocent,
the law viii learn q lesson and
not tolerate capital punishment.

On Weather For
Wilson Pupils

Wilson school classes learned
much about weather conditions and
the work of the U, S. weather bureau
this week when Fred A. Baughman,
local meteoroligist for the U. S.
weather bureau, talked to a number
OF the seventh grade classes which
have been taking up the study of
weather.
Baughman brought his charts and
instruments, showing them to the
groups and explaining the methods
OF using the instruments and their
value in making weather predictions.
He began his talks by showing the
students that every group is inter
ested in the weather reports from
the woman who wishes to hang out
her washing, to the merchants who
wish to learn what weather condi-
tions will prevail in order to deter
mine what lines of merchandise to
feature, to the growers of agricul-
tural crops.
Baughman explained his charts,
those made during the snow of 1882
when he predicted the storm, being
of particular interest. The speaker
described the numerous weather sta
tionS throughout the United States
and Canada, the way in which they
make their reports and send them IN
to a central station where they are
broadcast, describing the location
of some of the valley stations and
his work, locally.

State Club Women Interested in
California Institutions

Rather than support the move
ment for prison in Southern Cal
ifornia for young offenders, Mrs
Edward w. Gillis of Princeton,
chairman of institutional interests
for the California Federation of Wo-
mems clubs. has endorsed the plan
of Denning Tilton, state director of
planning.
This plan suggests that first Of
tenders capable of reformation be
sent to Santa Cruz island off Santa
Barbara, rather than to prison, and
that they serve their sentence de-
veloping this island into a state or
national park.
1t has been estimated that the
task would require about 10 years
and that it woud provide a variety
of healthful constructive labor not
to be found in the average prison.
The island would cost no more
than the proposed prison and Mrs.
Gillis believes it would be worth
more to society in the long run
as an agent of reformation.

or San Quentin, but believe they

GilliS.
Examinations Urged
Mrs. Gillis is also an advocate OF
mental and physical examinations
before marriag as means of cutting
down future population of the now
overcrowded institutions for both
criminals and mental detectives.
Constitutional amendment No. 21,
to be voted upon in November, is
another, of Mrs. Gillis' projects and
will make the women's prison a sep
arate institution as advocated by
the federation.
Work of the department OF lnstl-
tutional relations is concerned with
all public institutions, the welfare
of the blind, the youth, the aged
and the insane. In order to weigh
the needs of one group against the
other, Mrs. Gillis is making a state
wide survey of all institutions SO
that she will have adequate infor-
