Yet, Caiaphas presumed to sit
in judgment in q matter pre-
viouSly discussed by him with
a witness. who would testify
before him and who had been
corrupted by the judge him
self.
The arrest of Jesus was
Illegal. In the first place the
Jews were celebrating the feast
of the Passover and their law
prohibited an arrest from being
made on a feast day. Further
more, the arrest was made
during the darkness of night
which violated the rules of the
Sanhedrin. BY standards of law
today. the arrest was illegal
because there was no offense
committed within the presence
OF the arresting officers, nor
did anyone have a legitimate
reason to suspect that Jesus
had committed q felony. After
the arrest, those who took Him
into custody were confronted
with the problem of what to do
with Him; where to take Him
and to keep Him from His
friends until the Sanhedrin
was ready for business. Re-
member that the arrest was at
night and it seems reasonable
to assume that the members
of the Sanhedrin were asleep
and did not want. to be
disturbed.
The captors solved their
problem by taking Him before
Annas. He had been a High
Priest and had wangled a PEN
sion upon which he lived. He
did not want this pension cut
off, and, being aware of the
game that caiaphas was play
ing, stalled around, killing time
until he was brought word that
Caiaphas was ready to see
Jesus.
Jesus was taken to the
palace of Caiaphas about two
hours after his arrest. Cal
aphas was secure in his own
home where he was surrounded
by his cohorts and yes men"
and he commenced to question
the Man who had been brought
there by the Roman soldiers.
The record discloses that He
remained silent when con-
fronted with these accusations.
The Jewish Trials
After having appeared before
Annas and Caiaphas, Jesus was
next taken by the Roman
soldiers before the Sanhedrin
although it was still dark. This
was no kangaroo court. It was
an august legislative and ju-
dicial body composed Of u

As the warhead dived toward

Turk Bunishment
Of GIs Opposed
BY the Associated Press

The Defense Department
says it is trying to prevent any
American serviceman convicted
in Turkey from being sentenced
to Punishment in remote areas
of that country.
Where the sentence if for
more than six months, Turkish
law permits banishment of the
offender to an interior area
at least 200 miles from the
scene of the offense, the de-
partment said. He is confined
to that area but not to Jail
for the sentence.
In a report to the Senate
Armed Services Committee,
the department said it is ask
ing the State Department for
help in persuading Turkish
officials to exempt United
States servicemen from that
provision.

A spokesman at the control
