Conviction Aid
Seen in Easing
Of Death Penalty

Removal of the mandatory
death penalty in f1rst-degree
murder cases here would make
for more convictions with few
er delays, United States At
torney Oliver Gasch said last
night.
Addressing the Cleveland
Park Citizens Association. Mr..
Gasch denied that the death
penalty is necessary as a deter
rent to murder and such de-
terrent value as it has will not
be reduced b yeliminating the
mandatory feature, he said.
Mr.. Gasch said that in seven
be reduced by eliminating the
death penalty there have been
fewer homicides per 100000
population than in States that
still have the death penalty.
Life Imprisonment, he said,
is a sufficient protection for
the public against a convicted
murderer.
Mr.. GaSch expressed concern
over increases in District crime
but said lit is not something to
be iittery about"

is being used to gain votes
in the North for so-called
champions Of civil rights, but
hypocrisy is evident because
protection for the citizen in
his right to cross a picket
line in a labor dispute is
ignored. There apparently
will be no legislation on that
phase of civil rights.
What's the answer? A sig
nificant statement was re-
Gently made in a new book
written by w. D. Workman,
jr., of Columbia, s. c., a vet
eran of World War II, whose
newspaper and magazine writ
ingS have brought him civic,
industrial, agricultural and
military awards in addition
to some in the field of jour-
nalism. His book is entitled
"The Case for the South"
and he writes:
Short of utter amalgama-
ton Of the races. a thing
utterly unacceptable to white
SOuthernerS, there is no
solution to the problem of
race relations: There can
only be a continual adjust
ment and readjustment of
relationships. The sense of
race, no less than those of
religion or of nationality, is
so deeply embedded in mans
nature-both conscious and
unconscious-that it cannot
be eradicated in the foresee-
able future, if indeed it
should be eradicated. Some
persons, whose impulses can
be regulated or whose incen-
tives can be manipulated,
may rise above, or descend
below, race consciousness,
but the masses are not like
ly ever to shed their recogni-
ton of race.
Whatever may be the fu-
ture of race relations in
America, this much seems
evident: That neither salts
faction nor peace can come
from any coercive mingling
of the white and black races
against the will of either,
and that little hope can be
entertained for any assimila-
ton of one in the other.
There remains, then, only
the prospect of accommodate
ing their differences in a
pattern Of peaceful coexist-
ence based upon a friendly
tolerance and helpful under
standing. 1t is the recogni-
ton Of racial distinctions,
not their denial, which will
lessen the tensions and en-
nance their adjustment"
