o-operafion TO Speed
Trial Of Criminals
Is Promised by Fay

! United States Attorney George
Morris Fay told the Junior Bar
Section of the District Bar Associa-
ton yesterday his Office will CO.
operate fully with the courts to
speed punishment of the guilty to
deter crime.
A long lapse between conviction
and punishment results in weakening
the law, he said. Mr.. Fay pointed
out that the average time in the
District between conviction and
execution in murder cases is two
years. Some courts feel that this
results in "a judicial murder"
Mr.. Fay spoke at Ell Patio Res
taurant, Til Thirteenth street NV,
yesterday at the monthly meeting
of the group. The Junior Bar Sec
ton comprises lawyers under SO
years of age. One hundred attended
the meeting, at which Assistant
United States Attorney Sidney S.
Sachs, chairman of the section,
presided.
The United States Attorney urged
lawyers who feel their clients are
innocent of crime to cooperate with
the proper investigating Government
agency in exchanging information.
He declared minor cases should be
tried speedily in Municipal Court,
instead of sending them to District
Court, where four to five weeks
elapse before trial, under the exist
ing docket.
The District Attorneys Office, he
said, is screening" cases carefully
SO that cuttings" petit larceny and
similar cases can be tried promptly
in Municipal Court, instead of send
ing them to the grand jury and
District Court. Mr.. Fay Endorsed
the program to raise the limit for
petit larceny from the present $50
to 5000, as planned under the pend
ing legislation sponsored by Repre-
sentative Herbert, Democrat, OF
Louisiana.
This recommendation was made
by committee which included
Chief Justice Bolitha j. Laws of
District Court; Leo A. Rover, for
mer United States Attorney here
and James v. Bennett, director of

Mr.. Fay disclosed that he has a
new organization setup for his of

States Attorney John w. Fihelly.
who participated in the japanese
war trials, will head one group and
Assistant United States Attorney
Charles B. Murray the other for
better administration. Mr.. Murray,
who attended the luncheon, and Mr..
Fihelly are veteran prosecutors
here.
Asked about Chief Justice Laws
program for getting service back
ground information on veterans
charged with crime, Mr.. Fay said
convictions in military courts have
never been considered part of this
plan. The program calls only for

production. of medical record OF
official information on particularly
hazardous duty a veteran may have
been called on to perform. which
might affect his actions later. Mr..
Fay said details of the plan are
now being worked out, so that If
Veterans Administration does not
have the information, it can be OBJ
tanned from the War and Navy De-
partments.

rem Pennington.
In 1886, Carl and Warren pooled
their resources and established the
Port City Flying Service.
From there he went to work for
the Virginia Air Service in War
trenton, Virginia, where he was
made chief Pilot and General
Manager.
Soon, however, in 1898 ne bought

Florida, and not long after his mi
grafton to the Sunshine state"
he was designated Director Of Fly
ing at the nearby British cadet
training school in Arcadia, Flori-
da. When the u. S. entered the
war, this field, now known as Page
Field, was taken over by the air
corps and Carl was held on in
"boss" capacity. incidentally, at
one time this field was the largest
primary training school in the
country.
Leaving there in 1914, he went
to work for Grammar Aircraft Co.
operation at Bethpage, Long Is
land. Here he was given the duty
of exhibiting the Nays fighter
planes for visiting flag officers.
He also tested the F7F "Tiger-
cat" which he still rates as the
best %all-around planes in the air.
To 60 into all the unusual ex-
periences encountered by Carl
since that first flight back in '33
would take close to half 4 dozen
books, Sc we won't try today.
However, we will go into one
or two of them. While still in
Florida, Carl achieved the honor
of being the first pilot in the coun-
try to run an aerial newspaper
delivery route. Other planes were
already delivering papers by land
ing and then taking off again, but
he was the first to drop them
from the air. His route consisted
of various resort and fishing vii
lagos along the coast.
He used to have a few favorite
stunts that he employed to raise
the hair of Florida air show en-
thusiasts. One of these stunts
found him flying low over a speed
ing convertible, and with a hook
fastened between his wheels, pick
a handkerchief off the aerial OF
the car. In addition to this, he
often caused the spectators to hold
their breath by flying an ancient
tri-plane in which was installed a
converted Model ''T" engine.

much discourse on now, and too
interesting to cut short, will be
