VERDICT ON BANKS
HAS APPROVAL OF
MEDFORD CITIZENS
General satisfaction with the ver
dict of the Lane county jury of five
women and seven men, who Sunday
afternoon after 23 hours deliberation
returned a verdict of guilty of second
degree murder, sgainst L. A. Banks.
snd acquittal for his wife, Edith
Robertlne Banks, waa expressed to
day by Jackson county residents.
The verdict came two montha al
most to the hour, from the date of
the slain official's funeral In thia
city.
Second degree murder carries with
It a mandatory life sentence The
filing of a petition asking for a 30
day perfbd In which to file a motion
for a new trial was a formal legal
move. Circuit Judge Sklpworth an,
nounced that sentence would be
psssed at the expiration of that tlma.
By virtue or the verdict. Banks la In
the custody of the Lane county aherlff
and will be held In th Lane county
jail until removed to the state pent
tenttary at Salem.
Banks, after th verdict, thanked
the court for Its fair and Impartial
declelon and handling of the trial.
The court throughout exercised groat
care and caution In tha case.
Dlaclpllne In the courtroom was
rigidly maintained, and any attempt
ai outburst were speedily squelched,
vnen applause broke out at on
stage of the trial laat Thursday, the
court threatened to clear the court
room. The only other applause of
th trial came the day previous, near
adjournment for th day, when
Oeorge E. Obenchaln, of the Central
Point dlatrict, called as a character
witness, declared Banks to be "the
beat man who ever came to Jackson
county."
Closing addresses of the defense
counsel attacked thoae people and
organizations against whom Banks,
during his Journalistic days, had
fulminated vltrlollcally. The general
tenor of Attorney Longeran's argu
ment waa along the same lines, with
the lone exception that he did not
attack the "Illegal legal trust." The
heavy guns of his wrath were direct
ed against District Attorney- Oeorge
A. Codding, and his assistant, Oeorge
W. Nellson, who calmly aat within
arm's length of the defense ace while
he thundered his tirade Assistant
Attorney General Moody, In his clos
ing address, made but passing com
ment upon - the attack, declaring It
was "a common dodge of defense
counsel, aa a last resort to lambast
law enforcement agencies, to bolster
their own case."
Attorney Lonergan also attacked
the atate police vigorously, and de
clared they would be abolished by a
vote of the people. He condemned
the state police, "for not having the
courtesy to wear their coats while
appearing before us," though the
stat constabulary members were ap
pearing In their aummer uniform,
which la without a coat.
Attorney Moody at another stage of
his speech declared, "the defenae ar
gument 1 demagogic, and deals with
almost everything but the evidence
In th case."
Moat of the Medford and county
peopl In attendance at the trial,
left for home Saturday afternoon fol
lowing the closing arguments, the
balance returning yesterday and to
day. Sentiment In Eugene swung against
Banks th last week, though at all
times the courtroom spectators were
for him, and freely predicted acquit
tal. Eugen people were under a
constant fir of propaganda, almllar
to that circulated here the past two
years. One of the most vicious argu
ments was that "Constable Prescott
"had killed three men."
