| Man Presents
His Own Case:
| Jury Convicts

Lawyers in District Court yester-
day saw further substantiation given
their old adage, HE who acts as
his own lawyer has an unwise cl-
ent," when a man who represented
himself in a blackmail case was
promptly found guilty by a jury Of
a dozen men.
Edward J. Furey, who is said to
have been in the Alaska gold rush,
was on trial charged with black
mail and getting some $1,000 from
a man after accusing him of i'm
moral practices. Despite the urg-
ing of Justice Jesse C. Adkins, who
presided, Furey declined to have a
lawyer assigned to defend him and
insisted on acting as his own coun-
sci.
After the Government, through
Assistant United States Attorney
John w. Jackson, had presented its
case Furey made his own argument
to the jury.
The jury convicted Furey after
celebrating only Is minutes.

iliary of the Frederic william Vile.
Coast Guard-the service in the
North Atlantic which this country
organized and assumed on behalf
of all nations after the sinking OF
the Titanic. Four Coast Guard
cutters, Chelan, Champlain, Gen.
Greene and Sebago of the Ice
Patrol, this week are searching
day and night the perilous waters
off the Grand Banks of NeWfound-
land and other regions contiguous
to the danger zone, In which the
great White Star liner collided with
an iceberg and went to its doom
with a loss of $500 lives in 1912.
The Ice Patrol ranges over the
10000 square miles of cold water
south of the 48th latitude. Comdr.
Edward H. Smith, captain of the
Chelan, is in command of this years
Coast Guard force. He ranks as
one of the worlds most eminent
authorities in the field Of iceberg
observation.
Scouts Busiest Sea Lanes.
The Ice Patrols international OBJ
servation service scouts the worlds
most traversed sea lanes, through
which the vast maritime traffic
between Europe and North America
passes in an incessant stream
After the Titanic sank there was
conference in London, at which
l3 maritime powers invited the
United States to undertake the
patrol of the iceberg belt. The ex-
pense of the service is betrayed by
them on a percentage basis. Since
the Titanic there's been no major
disaster in the region, thanks to
the vigilance of the Coast Guard,
especially its highly perfected sys-
tenn of warning ships of iceberg
proximity. There is no politics in
the Ice Patrols lexicon. A ship
flying the Nazi swastika, the
Fascist flag Of Italy, the star and
sickle of Soviet Russia, or the
rising sun Of Japan is just as as
sured of Capt Smiths solicitude
as any vessel from whose mizzen
the Stars and Stripes float. Ice
bergs begin coming south along
about April or May and are pro-
life in June. They are giant
chunks from the glaciers of Green
land, float down past Labrador
through the Newfoundland fogs, and
eventually melt in the Gulf Stream

Representative Bloom, Democrat,
Of New York said yesterday he was

In appealing to the court for per-

Easton. The plea was granted.
Mr.. Bloom, who appointed Mr..
