County Supervisors, Don II. Spen-

Farmers who have depended al
most wholly on cash crops in re-

need Of farming adjustments
They find they can set up sound
system of farming by switching TO

farms. Many are looking for cred

a DEFENDING PERSONS
ACCUSED OF CRIME

Why will a lawyer defend in
criminal action a person whom he
may believe to be guilty? This ques-
ton puzzles many people and caus-
es them to doubt the integrity of a
lawyer
The defense lawyer is not the
Judge or the jury. 1t would be pre-
sumptive of him to convict his client
in his own mind before trial. Such
practice might in some instances re-
suit in an innocent person suffer-
ing.
According to the Canons of E.
thics of the American Bar AsSocia-
ton which established the stand
ard of conduct for lawyers, 1t Is
the right of the lawyer to undertake
the defense of person accused OF
a crime regardless of his personal
opinion as to the guilt of the &C
cused; otherwise innocent victims
only of suspicious circumstances,
might be denied proper defense.
q Prosecuting Attorneys Suit
Having undertaken such de-
Tense, the lawyer is bound by all
fair and honorable means to pre-
sent every defense that the law OF
the land permits to the end that no
person may be deprived of life or IL
berty, but by due process Of law.
THE primary duty of a lawyer
engaged in public prosecution is
not to convict but to see that JUS
tice is done. The suppression Of
facts or the secreting Of witnesses
capable of establishing the inno-
cence of the accused is highly re-
prehensible."
Unless a defendant pleads guilty
and unless his guilt is plain, sounf
public policy and morals dictate
that the prosecution be put to tn
test of pproving guilt and that de
PENDANT have proper defense.
