NEW YORK. Jul)? 31.—There
seems little left that is sacred in
the hands of our twentieth century
iconoclasts. George Bernard Shaw
writes a lengthy play and preface on

sanio has developed into a mean
spirited profiigatc. wearied of For-
tia and casting amorous eyes at the
pretty Jessica. Antonio, now
qucrelous bachelor. lives on the
glory of a departed day when a cer-
tain Shylock sought to take his life
in the public courts. and continually
reminds Bassanio and others of the
risk he ran for friendship's sake.
Shylock, who by the terms of An-
tonio's making. became a Christian.
is now a man of parts. wealthy. re-
spected. and safe in the streets of
Venice. Surely it satire consists of
luprooting all the things which con—
vention have made sacred. then St.
John Ervine is a satirist of the first
water and a worthy contemporary
of Shaw.
It will be interesting in the future
to note what effect “The lady of
Belmont" will have on the produc-
tions of “The Merchant." How
much of the pathos of the court-
broken and pitiful figure of a. man,
will be lost when one remembers
that in a few years he will have be-
come a protege of the Duke. and
living with all the material com-
forts surrounded by his daughter
and grandchildren. scant sympathy
will be wasted on Bassanio. and An-
tonio. Surely though. if the old
idols must go. one can hardly com-
plain if they are replaced by better
and much brighter ones.

-——Cites Israel Case—
Talks Of Boy Slayers
BRIDGEPOIFF. July 31.—Soundly

Court procedure in Connecticut as
not based on fact. pointing to the
Connecticut Judges as “the finest lot
that ever graced a bench" and hold-
ing up the lsravd case as a sample of
Nutmeg Stale Justice, Public Defend-
er Robert G. Do.:l~‘urcst. addressed
the Lions club at its noon luncheon
in the Stratfield yesterday.

"This is absolutely untrue as far

confine myself to a. ground with
which I am familiar and in relation
to which I believe I am capable to
bear witness.
Competent Judges.

Connecticut with the finest lot oi

intelligent, fearless. considerate and
competent. I dcfy anyone to prove
the contrary.
“The trouble with our critics is
that they hare no knowledge of
that in retortnco to which they so
freely and so volubly speak. Many
of the critics have never been in a
criminal court. They know nothing
of the case before the court, noth-
ing of the mitigating circumstances.
and indeed nothing of the matter
at all. A man steals a. loaf Of bread:
it's a. crime. The public hear that
the man has lieu-n put on probation.
it's a terrible thing. The man should
have had at least six years. This
man had six children and a. wife to
supporz. no work for months. and
stole the broad to feed his children.
“‘as the judgment of the court cor-
rect? And so it goes. in every case
the facts and the situation smnd on
its own basis. and is judged accord~
ingly, and rightly so.
Bulwark of Nation.
"The courts are the bulwark of
the Nation. They are the only secur-
ity of decent life. that we have.
\Vilhout courts. no property rights.
and we revert to anarchy and club
law. it is theduty of every citizen
on every occasion to uphold the
courts. and strengthen their hands.
instead of filling the air with inac—
curate and Svnsehss' criticism.
"Take the lsrael case. “‘hat
would have happened if the prosecu-
ting attorneys and other: interested
had not investigated this case. and
found the truth? '.-\ young man

purpose of cruel punishment. but to
protect society.

Trial Opened
NEW YORK. July 31.—-l.'nder a l
Litter cross-examination conducted
by William J. Fallon. criminal law-
yer, who is charged with having brib
ed him, Charles ‘W. Rendigs. the
Gorcrnment's star witness. declared
that Fallon had never seen or spok-
en to him after the Durrell-Gregory
trial in the. Federal court in which
liendigs was a juror. had never told
him to commit perjury and had nev-
er suggested that. he commit per-
Jury. ’
The cross-examination of the wit-
ness was frequently interrupted by
objections by Assistant United States.
District Attorney William J. Millard;
and tilts with Judge George W.‘-
McClintic of West Virginia. before
whom Fallon is on trial on the Unit-
cd States District Court.
Fallon was in a. fighting mood.
more so than he has been at any
time since his trial began.
Question Overruled.
“Did you deliberately and design-
cdly commit perjury?" inquired Fal-
ion.
This was overruled.
liendigs was asked whether he
talked with anybody else during the
Fuller trial and said he had not.
Rendlgs was the first. witness cali-
cd when the trial was resumed be-
fore Judge McClintic and a jury yes-
terday. Under the questioning of
Assistant United States Attorney
Millard he had told of receiving a.
telephone call from Fallon on Oo-
tobcr 6, 1922, the day after the
Durrell-Gregory trial started and
the attorney asked him to meet him
at the Woodmansten lnn. in Wil»
liamsbridge road, the Bronx. that
night at 8 o’clock.
The witness said he met Fallon u
ithc inn, and that when the lawyer
3shook hands with him (Rendigs) he
[slipped a $1,090 bill into his hand.
utterward saying: "there'll be more
lmoney in this case, and whatever i
iget I'll divide with you. I will get
in touch ~with you from time to
time." '
Fallon‘s cross-examination of Ben
digs was conducted with a display of
the vigor and fluency of tongue that
have been characteristic of him in
so many cases in the Federal courts
when he represented defendants
other than himscll.
The spectators frequently could
not refrain from audible comments
as he clashed in a. battle of words
with the prosecuting atorncy of the
court.
