Attorney Quinones began
the summation for the de-
Tense. He began with an at
tack on the law which per-
mits hanging which he called
archaic and not in accord with
modern penal trends, he how

made his rebuttal.

compromise on the second de

Mother OF 9 and Baby
Home After Spending
"a Hours in Jail
ey the Associated Press

PHILADELPHIA. Dec. %
Seven Robert Gilyard
and his mother are back home
today after spending "a hours in a
Jail cell hurriedly equipped with
crib and diapers.
It all began last Wednesday
when Judge G. G. Parry sentenced
Mrs. Lillian Gilyard, 3S-year-old
mother of nine, to four months in
county jail for Illegally accepting
relief checks totaling $587.70.
The State charged she had
earned that amount working as a
domestic and waitress while re-
ceiving $4,000 in relief payments
over a 21a-year period. The law
requires that any money earned
must be deducted from relief
benefits.
Hundreds Phone Protest.
Mrs. Gilyard appeared before
the 75-year-old jurist carrying
Robert wrapped in pink blanket.
After sentence had been pro-
nounced. some one asked what
about the baby?" .
Judge Parry. reminded Of a
State law which prohibits sepa-
rating mother and nursing child,
ordered the infant sent to jail,
too.
When the story was published
in newspapers. hundreds of per-
sons telephoned City Hall to pro-
test Judge Parry's action.
A group Of civic and business
leaders raised the $587.70; and
Judge Parry agreed to reconsider
the sentence.
In 10-minute courtroom ses-
sion yesterday, the jurist freed
Mrs. Gilyard but warned her she
would be sentenced to two years
in Jail if ever arrested on similar
charges.
Judge Parry told the woman
she was being released through
the kindness of your friends and
the liberality of some other char
liable persons who. I hope. have
not been misled as to your char
acter."
Had Time to Make Good.
The jurist told the woman her
own testimony was:
That, as young Negro girl, !
you came from the State of South
Carolina to Pennsylvania a num-
ber of years ago; that you had had
10 children; that you had never
been married; that the individual
with whom you had lived at the
time your four youngest children
were born, had disappeared and
you did not know where he was"
He said also that he had given
the woman time to make good
the fraud, but that she had not
repaid the sum and that there
fore he fixed the sentence.
Since then, he added. he has
learned she worked the same
fraud" nearly four years ago and
was released upon your written
agreement to abstain from such
practices in the future. Had
I known this yesterday I should
have imposed a more severe SEN
tence." III

Several years ago, on my way back from the West

gotten day drove out to visit the newspaper editors in
some of the smoler towns In little one street-town
nesting in the heart of the mountains stood with the
editor at the front door of his office LOOKING I'D at the
great peaks grdIne the town. The ceor blue sky the
snow crowned mountain, whose rugged sides we're purpy
green in the late afternoon sum- were vision of beauty
said obviously Hoy fortunate you who live here /"
My editor friend looked at me with sold weo,v smile
and sold: Il know whot you mean but our hearts are
always striving to the mountains"
Eoch heart hos its mountoin to cross No mot

other side of the ronge hot had our woys ben laid in
oth places, could have done so much, we could have
gone so for
We condemn those who live on the other side OF
mounton for not making the most Of their greet op
porunities We forget that they turn condemn us fo
not realizing how fair pathways are intolerance
breeds both sides of the mountoin whether it be
physicol borrer mountoin built of our own pre-

Mountains too often but msunderstondnos The,
