A PERTINENT QUESTION


Finally, the defense asked the SUI
preme court "Now can the the scanty
examination of the experts agents
of the State of Montana, incomplete,
and as shown on cross-eXamination,
be compared with the clinical exami-
nation, lengthy observation which
yielded the decision of the Board of
Medical Inquiry of the U. S. Navy"
and then went on to point out "The
states experts stated that even
though he might know right from
wrong, defendant had no volition or
control at all 49,"
Contending that it would be i'm
possible for Dryman to receive a
fair and impartial trial in Toole
county, defense counsel also called
attention to: "The aura of lynch
justice which permeates this rec
ord, and which eliminated in the APP
plication of the Toole county au-
thorities to remove defendant not
only from Toole county, but even
from adjacent counties to the State
Penitentiary, merely emphasizes the
impossibility of a fair and impartial
trial in Shelby -"
"BUT BRIEFLY REMOVED FROM
MOB. VIOLENCE" '3ts1a
Concluding the appeal for SUI.
preme order granting trial by jury
defense counsel commended: eff the.
lower court was not aware, at the
time of judgment, of the impropri-.
cites which permeate this case, GER
tainly by the end of the (May 29)@
hearing, the most leaden conscience,
the most precise and journalistic dis
erection should have been aware that.
the defendant was not fit subject
for the eXecutioner. The state is
held to righer order of procedure
in taking human life than that of
the mob 1t is submitted that the
entire tone of this record demon
strates procedure but briefly re-
moved from mob violence, and that
the distinction is found merely in
matters of form. The high processes
of the State should not be loaned to
the passion of the mob :"
y If a new trial had been ordered,
what prejudice to the states case?
1t should be presumed that the state
has a case it can prove before a
charge so serious as murder is pre-
'ented. Can the state then be heard
% complain because it is asked to ac-
;ord due process to which every man
S entitled before it executes man?
only time is lost, and it is elementary
hat the law considers carefully and
ong before exercising it's most ex-
rene sanction. Haste, impetuous-
hess, overweaning zeal, are factors
ieplored in the criminal law -

TEEN-AGERS
TO DANCE SAT.
Lions To Conduct Supervised
Dances on Saturday Nights
for Town Youth
"BUD" WILSON PIANIST

Teen-agers are assured of dances
on Saturday nights at the Youth
Center with completion of plans by
the Smyrna Lions Club to conduct
dances each week starting Satur-
day night, Feb. 8, with dancing
from $50 to 11:30 pm. This week
Bud Wilson, of Wilmington, form
er Smyrna resident and Lion, will
be featured at the piano, in addi-
ton to recorded music. The series
of dances for young people is the
elimination of the effort to supply
recreation for the youth of the
community, and results from re-
quests over a long period by the
young people for properly super
vised dances. An admission charge
of twenty-five cents will be made,
and any small profit realized will
go toward the retirement of the
note on the Youth Center. Dances
will be held every Saturday night,
depending on interest shown by the
young people. The project has the
approval and backing of the PTA
and of George w. Wright, superin-
tendent of schools. The dances will
be chaperoned by Lions and Lion
esses, as well as faculty member,
and refreshments will be served.
The Lions Club solicits suggestions
and criticisms by the youth who
attend, so that the dances will be
the type of affair they want. The
donation of a large number of re-
cords by Bob Moore of Middletown
is gratefully acknowledged. The
committee Of Lions in charge OF
arrangements for the dances is
headed by Walter r. Eley.

TOWN COUNCIL MEETING
Rates on Tapping Water Mains
Tipped Due To Increased Cost

At a recent meeting of Town
Council it was decided that, due to
the abnormal advance of materials
used in making service connections
to the municipal water system, it
has been necessary to raise the
tapping fee. Effective at once these
fees will be as follows: tapping fee
for three-quarter inch and one-inch
service, $25; fee for one and one
half inch service, S45; for two-inch
service, $50; all sizes above two
inch service the property owner to
pay for all materials and labor.
The council went on record to ex-
tend their electric line 1900 feet on
Sunnyside Road, also known as the
State Welfare Home Road. Auth
orization was given for a letter to
be sent to the State Highway De
partment saying that the town will
take care of underground utilities
on Commerce Street ahead of new
construction. A new adding mach
inc was purchased for use at the
town Office.

Higher Type Literature Brings
Growth to Town Institution
The growth of the town of Smyr-
ma is indicated in the greatly in
creased number of those who take
advantage of the splendid public
library here. Second to no small
town library in the state, the
Smyrna Library provides a rich
fare for book lovers. Newcomers
to Smyrna are amazed at the wide
selection of books and especially of
our good fortune in the addition of
the newest volumes of fiction and
non-fiction each week. There is to
be noted particularly an increase
in young masculine readers, a
healthy sign in any community.
For the benefit of regular and po-
tential readers, a list of the new
books appears each week in The
Smyrna Times. Recent additions
include: "The Dry Season." Dan
Wickenden; "Out of this World, /"
Lowell Thomas, Jr.; "Fox Fire, 4"
