committee STUDIES
HOMICIDE TRIALS
Large Percentage Held in Auto
Deaths Cannot Be Convicted Due
to Evidence Lack.

In an effort to reduce the number
OF useless trials Of persons charged
under the Negligent Homicide Act, a
special committee recently appointed
by Acting United States ATTORNEY
David A. Pine was to meet this after
noon.
According to Assistant United
States Attorney David A. Hart, who
has been prosecuting all the negligent
homicide cases in Police Court and
who is member of the committee, q
large percentage of the persons held
IN automobile deaths by coroners
juries cannot be convicted because
Of lack of evidence. Under present
conditions, the Police Court Office of
the District attorney is required to try
all persons held by coroner's juries
under the act, regardless of whether
the Government has the necessary
facts to make out a case.
It was pointed out in approxi-
mately 80 cases there have been only
10 convictions or pleas of guilty,
the guilty plea being made only on ar
rangement as to the sentence.
Mr.. Hart said five negligent homi-
eide cases have been disposed of in
the last 10 days. OF these, two re-
suited in conviction, there was one di-
rected verdict of not guilty and two
acquittals.

One Thing We
All Have
In Common

Some folks will not listen to
opera, and others will not listOn to
swing. There are some who do not
care who wins the World Series, and
many another whose idea of a grand
slam is home run with the bases
loaded.
Yet however widely their environ
ments and tastes may differ, people
have one thing in cOmmon-they
read the newspaper.
An authentic survey reveals that
an average of SO per cent read one
or more news stories, 30 per cent
read picture pages; 68 per cent read
the comics; so per cent oddity car
toons, and department-stOrea adver-
tising is read by 73 per cent of the
women.
Newspapers do not depend on one
"star' or attraction as these are
only a few of some fifty different
attractions that draw all members
of the family to newspapers and the
advertisements i'm them.
Another survey, as recently re-
ported in Time, showed that "near-
Iy all families read Newspapers
81 per cent regularly"

Officials OF the foreign office
have prepared the answer to Secre-
tary of State Cordell Hulls strong
ly worded note which demanded
that Mexico halt further expropri-
alton of American owned property
without immediate compensation.
Mexico's attitude. which present.
