F~oreWarned by Judge Moore
that there must be no demon

verdict calmly and hundreds
pressed forward to shake the
hands of Patrolman Citizens,
and his attorney, Almeric
Christian, who in his custom
airy manner had put up a brill
liant defense.
Judge Moore deplored the
lack of understanding between
the people and the Police and
the growing disrespect for the
latter. He described the case
as anomalous and one which
was most embarrassing to
District Attorney, Cyril Mi
chael. He painted a word pic

were lined up on one side
while the Police and Attorney
Christian was on another. Not
one Police officer was aiding
the District Attorney, which
was unusual.
Contradictory Testimony
In reaching his decision to
acquit Leopold Citizens the
jurist said that he could not

deprive one of his liberty on
reasonable doubt. This reason
able doubt was because Of the
contradictory testimony Of the
witnesses put on the stand by

in plant and fish food, humans have
only begun to be aware. Here lies
a source of power, of food, of water
for arid lands, limitless and almost
untouched.
But even on presently cultivated
land all over the world we are not
producing maximum yields, and much
of what is produced is wasted. Con-
slider that insects are devouring
enough each year to keep alive at
least two hundred million extra peo-
pie! Rats, insects and fungi destroy
enough food each year to nourish
our entire population. Then there is
the fact that in the United States
the annual cut of saw timber is so
per cent greater than the annual
growth. Here indeed is tangible
material to work on. The sec
ond portion of LET There Be Bread"
gives detailed accounts of work to-
ward destroying harmful insects,
raising crop yields, combating di-
seases that decimate animal herds.
And wherever in the world there is

claimed the view that people are the
riches of nation, so Britain "spec-
ialist on the hopeful aspects of scien-
