Man Sentenced
In 1921 Staying
IS Released

Edgar R. Perrygo was released
from Lorton Reformatory yesterday
after serving a long sentence for
the second degree murder of Mrs
Emily Faithful, more than 70 years
old. Perrygo had time off for good
behavior
A four-year legal battle was waged
to save his life. During the winter
of 1921 Perrygo, then II, planned
to marry a 16-year-old girl. At
that time Mrs. Faithful was beaten
to death with an iron bar by a
robber who took her life savings.
Young Perrygo was arrested sew
eral hours after the crime, which
occurred in Mrs. Faithfuls home
in Congress Heights.
Police said they found $50 in the
youths possession. In May of 1921
Perrygo was sentenced to be hanged
for the murder.
Attorney James O'Shea appealed
the case on the grounds that Perrygo
confessed only after detectives had
told him his fiancee was present
in the police station. The higher
court held that Perrygo had been
unduly influenced and the penalty
was changed to 20 years in prison.
Perrygo began serving his term
n June, 1925.

President Declares
Approval Of Earle
Liberal Regime
Judge james Misuse
Of Roosevelt Name
Brinos Statement
B, the Associated Press.

By the Associated Press.
PHILADELPHIA, Oct. 31.-Presi-
dent Roosevelt put his influence
into the final week Of the Penn
sylvania election campaign today
with a statement approving Gov.
George H. Earle's liberal" Demo-
cratic State administration.
In a letter to Michael Francis
Doyle. Philadelphia attorney and
member of the Permanent Court of
Arbitration at the Hague, the Presi-
dent said. I'm my own relations
with the Earle administration I can
truthfully say that have found it
at all times willing and eager to
help in carrying into effect a lib
eral program for social and eco
nomic justice"
Gov. Earle is the Democratic
candidate for the Senate. Charles
Alvin Jones, Pittsburgh attorney, is
the party's gubernatorial nominee.
The Governor, informed of the
Presidents letter, said:
Il am delighted that the Presi-
dent approves of us. 1 believed that
he did, but am pleased that ne
said So"
President Accuses James.
The President accused Judge Ar
thur H. James, the Republican CAN
didate for Governor, of misusing his
name in the campaign.
He said he felt he had "every
right to object to Judge James say
ing in his speeches that have de-
liberately refrained from meddling
in local issues in Pennsylvania be-
cause I am unwilling to put my
hands in that muddy water"
That deliberately misrepresents
the facts" Mr.. Roosevelt declared.
He added:
"As Judge James has misued my
name in the Pennsylvania campaign
I do not think it is amisS for me to
point out that, to put it mildly,
there is a clear inconsistency in his
position in appealing for the votes
of opponents of the New Deal on
the ground that he is opposed to
the New Deal and in appealing for
the votes of liberals on the ground
that 1 am not actively participating
In the Pennsylvania campaign.
THAT does not make sense.
Liberals Can't Trust James.
Gas against his Inconsistency, it
seems to me liberals in Pennsylvania,
irrespective of party, can scarcely
place their trust in the liberalism or
desire for social justice of any can
didates who are sponsored by such
obvious reactionaries as the WE'LL
known Messrs. Annenberg, Grundy
and Pew"
The last reference was to M. L.
Annenberg, Philadelphia publisher;
Joseph R. Grundy, manufacturer,
and Joseph N. Pew, oil company eX-
ecutive
The President prefaced his appro-
val of the Earle administration with
statement that there are local and
personal issues wholly distinct from
the national issues" in State cam
paigns.
Il have endeavored to the best of
my ability to keep away from such
local and personal issues" said the
President. mo one human being,
particularly if he is occupied with
numerous and important national
problems. can be expected to be able
to inform himself sufficiently to
pass upon local and personal issues
in many different States and dis
tricts."
