The Sanhedrin should have acquitted
Him after finding Him guilty by a unanimous
verdict; and, in addition, the verdict was i'm
proper as it should not have been reached
until the expiration of two days.
Part Four
Plate and HerOd and PLATE
The following morning when it was day
light. the Roman soldiers took their Prisoner
before PLATE. This move was necessary be.
cause the Sanhedrin did not have the power
to put a death sentence into effect, and be-
cause the Roman Procurator acted as an APP
pellate judge in capital cases referred to him
from the Sanhedrin.
As an appellate Judge, PLATE should have
seen every one of the errors heretofore stated.
At least he was there and should know them
better than this writer. 1t Is probable that
he saw the errors of the Sanhedrin, but he
did not have backbone enough to stand up to
the pressure the Jews adroitIy put upon him.
On the charge of blasphemy, Plate found
no evidence and told the elders that the con-
viction was improper. 1t then slipped into
the case that the NaZarene had preached in
Galilee. PLATE knew that Herod was COVER
nor of the province and sent the Nazarene to
Herod who was visiting in the city at that
time. 1t appeared to Plate that he could get
out of tight spot by claiming that he had no
jurisdiction in the matter Herod examined
the Nazarene but could extract no confession
from Him. With gesture of contempt, Herod
clothed Him as king and sent Him back to
Plate.
Meantime, PLATE discussed the matter
with his wife. She advised him to do nothing
with the Nazarene and described Him as
righteous man."
In addition, after the conviction of the
Nazarene by the Sanhedrin, Judas confessed
to having betrayed an innocent man and at.
tempted to return the 80 pieces Of silver. He
threw them in the temple and went out and
hanged himself and was buried in potter's
field. Perhaps Plate knew of this.
PLATE stepped out in front of the Jews
and told them that he found no fault with
Him. The Jews would not accept this answer
and said the Nazarene should die because he
posed as the Son of God. PLATE once more
withdrew with the Nazarene and then once
more confronted the Jews with threat to re.
lease Him. The Jews then said that the Naza.
rene was rival of Caesar and that if Plate
released rival of Caesar, he was not Cae.
sars friend This did it. PLATE depended upon
Caesar for political patronage and from fear,
six hours after the arrest, released the Naza-
rene into the hands of His enemies, and by so
doing became for all time the example of a
cowardly judge.
And so 1t was that the law failed the Man
whose life made the desert bloom and Who
gave to mankind gift of inestimable value:
the belief in Immortality
Knowing what we once did to Him NAV
make us little less sure of our power as a
nation, little less certain of our individual
convictions, and may make us clutch little
tighter to the simple and quiet moments of
life-such as the hush in the air on the night
before Christmas

ures and their wives with the
boyish smile that is his trade,
mark and few short remarks.
The senator told the audience
what they expected to hear
from a Democratic candidate
for President-even an unde
clared one:
. That the major issue fac
ing the nation in 1860 is the
relative decline" of this ma
TONS leadership in the world.
Q That the Presidents visit
abroad will do little good unless
a specific plan of action results
. That the U. S. must bear
the burden of aiding other ma
tons in the battle against com
munism.
. That Khrushchev's knees
weren't quaking' after he
viewed the United States in his
recent visit.
. That the nation has drift
ed" since the election in 1852.
. That Russia has taker
much of "our prestige and oul
influence and even our power
in the world community"
The senator, at one point in
his speech, suggested that divid
ed government was unthinkable
and since the Senate and the
House would be Democratic ir
1860, the Republicans should
listen to reason and help elect
a Democrat.

ton of the city water system.
The year was up in November.
City Manager Walter A.
Scheiber told the council that
a study of the years operation
showed a need for the increase.
The council un a n m o usly
agreed.
The increase in water rates
automatically increases sewer
rates which are now computed
at so per cent of the water bill.
The raise in sewer charges from
25 to so per cent of the bill,
enacted in the June budget, was
effective last July 1.

Crucifixion Of Christ
Was Judicial Murder
Continued From Page A4)

therefore fooled around killing time until he
got the word that Caiaphas was ready to see
the Nazarene Mote that this procedure is
similar to the evil which today's Mallory rule
is supposed to remedy: namely the keeping
of the defendant incommunicado and away
from his friends until the tracks are creased
for the railroading)
The Nazarene was taken to the house OF
Caiaphas about one hour after His arrest. At
this point Caiaphas, in the security OF his
luxurious palace questioned the man who had
been torn from His friends by Roman soldiers.
The record discloses that He remained silent
when confronted with the accusations. Mote:
as the Nazarene remained silent when ac-
cused of crime, it woul dhardly seem disgrace
full for others to do the same thing. There
Just might be some merit to the Fifth Amend
ment)
Part Three
The Jewish Trials
The Nazarene had now appeared before
Annas and Caiaphas. 1t was still dark. The
Roman soldiers took Him before the Sanhe-
drin This was no kangaroo court. 1t was an
august legislative and judicial body composed
of u descendants of Moses. Its rules were
strictly formulated In criminal matters 1t
could pass death sentence only after deliber-
ating two days. If there was a unanimous
verdict of guilt, the defendant was acquitted.
This was because if all agreed that the ac-
cused was guilty, it was conclusively pre-
sumed that the verdict was arrived at by pas
SION On the other hand unanimous verdict
of not guilty would be allowed to stand. 1t
was trial court and never functioned as a
grand jury.
The elders called witnesses but they con-
tradicted each other. Finally two came for
ward and said that the Nazarene had said
that He could destroy the temple of God and
rebuild it within three days. When confront
ed with this accusation, He remained silent.
Caiaphas asked Him if He was the Christ.
For the first time, the Nazarene broke His
silence and said, you have said So" Upon
these words He was convicted of blasphemy
and sentenced to death. The members of the
Sanhedrin then spit upon Him, and, after per-
forming this black deed, retired to their beds
and remanded Jesus to PLATE, the Roman
Governor, in order to have execution upon the
sentence.
Under the Hebrew law as 1t then existed
the Sanhedrin made the following errors in
regard to the trial Of the Nazarene:
The arrest was illegal.
Caiaphas had no right to examine Him
in his palace.
AS the Sanhedrin was a trial court it
had no right to prefer charges, but that is
exactly what it did when it accused Him Of
blasphemy.
The only evidence which the Sanhedrin
had to convict Him was His statement in re.
Spouse to the question, "Are you the Christi"
II was the law then, and IL Is the law now that
defendant cannot be convicted upon his un-
corroborated confession.
The Nazarene had no counsel. 1t was
and it is the law that one accused of crime
has the right to lawyer.

Honorable Walter I'M. Hodge. President Of the Legislature
Of the Virgin islands Il the Commencement Exercises
Of the christiansted High School on Wednesday,
june e. 1858.

Tonight I have the honor and privilege to address the
Graduating Class of 1859 Of the Christiansted High School. To
each & every one Of you Of this class extend my best wishes &
congratulations on the occasion of your Graduation. ] know
that you have worked hard and made sacrifices to achieve this
goal. Likewise your parents and your teachers should receive
a word Of praise and congratulation for their contribution on
this very pleasant occasion. My remarks tonight viii differ
considerably from the regular type of graduation speech and
will be directed not only to the graduating class but to a
greater extent to the undergraduates, the entire school sys-
tenn, the teaching staff and the local government.
Thirteen years ago just one year before most Of you en-
tered upon your school life the Second World War ended
and with it the American People and the Free Peoples of the
World looked forward with anticipation to the era Of interna-
tional peace. Our major foreign policy objective was to pre-
serve a Just and lasting peace through genuine understanding
and active cooperation among the major powers of the
World. Presumption was at that time that all the members of
the United Nations would stay united and that there would
never again be a threat to world peace. However, as the years
progressed, differences between the United States and Soviet
Russia became more far reaching. Our illusions have been
blasted by events that have since taken place. The seizure Of
Czechslovakia, the Berlin blockade, the Korean War, the re-
preston of Hungary, the development Of Sputnik by the
Soviets and the launching of Sputnik made it painfully oby-
Gus to us the nature of the Soviet threat. 1t also gave us q
more accurate measure Of Soviet capacity for ruthlessness
and its technical advancement and proficiency. In this brief
span Of time our attitudes and aspirations have undergone
words. Thirteen years ago you could not find in the technical
manuals such words as Launching pad eCountdown," and
