To the Editor: It waa with Interest and somewhat of astonishment , that I read your editorial In your lsaue of the 17th, touching "Leon and Sam." As to "Leon," it Is very little that Uila writer knows about Trotzky'a re latlon to Russia. But If he Is vigor. ously spreading world revolution, and the Soviet Itself has a world-wide net. work of propaganda for the same pur. pose, one would think that Instead of hounding Trotzky they would pay him a big salary, well, who knowsv Maybe they DO. International poll' tlca la a deep game. But I am thinking mainly of Inaull and your recommendations concern ing him. Last year, after a long ard expensive trial. Mr. Banks waa con victed and given a life sentence. Then certain distinguished parties in other parts of the state, Including as I recollect, some prominent editors, no doubt weary of reading about Jack son; county troubles, urged that all the rest of the cases be at once dis missed. They said, "Let bygones be bygones." Let everybody shake hands and get busy on the recovery pro gram, etc. And if my memory serves me right ly, the Mall Tribune raised a strenu ous protest agatnat any such a course. Without quoting you verbatim, I think the gist of your attitude was this: That grave crimes had been committed here, and the pubUc wel fare demanded that those criminals be brought to Justice, and the law of the land upheld; that this undue laxity and lenience toward orlmlnala had already brought much reproach upon our penal system, eto. And 1 remember that at the time your posi tion' seemed to me very strong and very Bane. But what has happened to the edi torial mind since then? You now seem to occupy the seat of the disin terested ones. It may be that you have grown weary of the whole Insull case. It Is evident that you are not one of the victims of this gigantic steal, or you would not be, as you say, "soft-headed enough to hope that they somehow 'mus tne tram. (Does that mean escape?) Again you say, "They are both THROUGH. It Is too lata for either to come back, or even It they desire, do any more harm." Sine when did they become so harmless? You further say, "Putting one In prison won't, as we see it, add anything to the moral fore of their tragic fates." Amazing, If true. So the moral Mesons from a criminal rec ord are complete with th. capture. And whether they are convicted and punished or Just "miss th. train" does not affect those lessons. I had supposed that th. moral lesson grow ing out of any crime was wrapped up In the conviction and punishment of th. criminal. If your line of argument Is valid, we might as well restore Banks to hla freedom at Medford, and let him reaume his place a president emeritus (or something) of th. O. O. C. Why not, if he Is "through" and can never "come back" or "do any more harm"? That editorial surely must have been hastily and carelessly written. And we certainly hop. that it does not express your real sentiments con cerning the execution of our penal laws. One of the severest indictments against our American penal system Is the .ver-lncreaslng number of crim inals who are apprehended' but are not mode to suffer the penalty for their crime, because of a lax, lenient, toothless enforcement of law.
