DR. C. C. JARRELL
SPEAKER TUESDAY
Presiding Elder Speaks at
University Y. M. C. A.
Tuesday Night
By DOYLE JONES, JR.
“The battles of the soul are
fought on the frontiers, meet temp
tations there or alil is lost,” so de
elared Dr. C. C. Jarrell, presid
ing elder of the Athens-Elberton
district of the Methodist church,
who spoke in the absence of Dr.
R. i¢. Park, head of the Univer
sity English department, 'at the
University TN . A, last
evening.
“Sin must be met at the front
door and denied entrance, if we
are to lead a holy life. Once sin
takes root in us, it is hard to cast
out,” said Dr. Jarrell. “After evil
takes over our lives only God's re
pentance can save us. Too few are
repentant, however, and conse
quently are lost.”
“Dr. Jarrell cited his “principles
of temptation” as:
(1) The eye—The eye is the su
per-salesman. It sees what It
‘wants, covets it, and we sin to ob
‘tain 'it, if necessary.
(2) The mind—The mind re-en
acts a method of obtaining that
which is coveted by the eye. Every
premediated crime is re-enacted
in the brais numerous times before
it transpires. The imagination is
the greatest force within us. Ii
we can control it, perhaps we can
live with less sin. If not, usually
sinful lives follow. \
(3) The conscience—The consci
ence must overcome the sin with
in us or sin results. “We should
follow the dictates of our consci
ence,” says Dr, Jarrell, “as it is
rarely wrong.”
(4) Feeling of fear—We are
afraid that society will condemn
us for some little’ wrong we have
done, and through this fear it
drives us _to commit greater
crimes .
Live a full 'life, day by day,
trust in God and fellow-men was
the formula given by Dr. Jarrell
for a model life.

tearing part of his face away.
Mrs. Adams ran to a neighbor,
the Clayton Buchanan home, where
she summoned aid.
Neighbors who rushed in found
the lifeless bodieg of the two girls
on the floor, Then arso founa
Adams in a dying condition. He
wag taken to the hospital in an
ambulance and died a few minu-~
tes later.
Son at Emory
Jack Cutler, friend of the family
left at once for Atlanta to get the
Adams’ only son, Albert, jr., a stu
dent at Erx?cry university, and
bring him back to hig mother.
The Prudential agency is one of
the oldest in Macon. C. M. Adams
for many years was general agent.
The son who, succeeded him was
prominent in business and civic
affairs. He spent large sums of
money at one time in a foreign
battery invention® that he planned
to manufacture here. More re
cently he was interested in inde
pendent power facilities.
Adams left five notes, one of
which was addressed to Coroner
L. H. Chapman, disclosing a pre
meditated plan to end his life and
to take the lives of others. Ac
cording to the police.
In one of the notes, undated, ad
dressed to the coroner, the latter
said he wrote: “I have committed
murder and am ending my life.”
The other notes, dated yester
day, were to close friends.
The note to the ecoroner stated
that he was “loging his mind” and
was in financial distress, and had
been so for some time.

forts to maintain peace lead toward
| economic isolation. His example:
,Sanctiuns imposed by the League
‘of Nations make it almost com
pulsory.
| Proposed neutrality policy of the
United States would, in case of
war, would cut off a large part of
i our foreign trade and lead other
:nations to look elsewhere for
sources of supply, Soule declared,
I adding:
| “Little as we may like it, we
i shall be forced otward the policy
| of self-containment.”
| Internal adjustments necessita
ted by this policy will be harmful
and difficult, he said, and we shall
merely impovish” ourselves if we
confine our adjustments to re
istrictlons of output of those pro-
I ducts, like cotton, which are now
‘lnrg'ely dependent] yon an pxport
market.
“The only real solution is an en
i largement of the internal market
Iby planning for abundance,” Soule
‘ said, but—
| If we and all nations had the
| political and economic means of
| doing this, we should also have
| seen that there was no economic
| advantage in self-containment.
| Peace would be assured.
. And international trade could
{ flourish on a planned basis.
| “We could achieve the sensible
ends laid down by laissez-faire
| economics, but only by abandon
| ing the means of laissez-faire,”
| Soule said.
| “n an address yesterday morning,
| Soule defined the essential differ
‘ences between communism, social
-11:19\ and fascism. He was the seéc

LAWYERS FOR BRUNO
ASK REPRIEVE FROM
GOV. HOFFMAN TODAY
(Continued From Fage One)
circuit court here late yesterday.
- Hauptmann asked a writ of
habeas corpus; 68-year-old Judge
“Warren J. Davig refused it. Haupt
‘mann asked for a stay of execu
‘rtion- This, too, was demied.
’ Judge Davis, delivering his de
cision just before 6 p. m. said that
‘ to grant the petition:
“p would in effect be overrule
’ing the court of errors and ap
peals of this state and the Su
s preme Couri of the United States.
This would, it seems to me, bhe
‘sheer, inexcusable judicial egotism
ion» my part.”
| “The End”
! Thé hopelessnets of further re
course was voiced by two mems
bers of Hauptmann’s five-man le
gal staff. Said one, whp asked
that his name be withheld:
“This decision by Judge Davis
is the end.”
Said Neil Burkinshaw, Washing
ton lawyer, who argued the
Hauptmann appeal in the drama
tic but brief federal court action:
“The only possibility in the
world now is the United States
Supreme Court.”
- G. Lloya Fisher, chief counsel,
- was more hopeful in is comment,
but was vague as to what further
steps he would take.
- “There are several possibilitieg,”
j he said. .
~ One would be to go before Jus
tice Thomas W. Trenchard—"one
~of the most conscientious and fair
gentlemen of the state,” as Judge
Davis described him yesterday—
and ask » new trial on the plea
that new and vital evidence has
become available. .
Apply To Supreme Court
Another possibility would he ta
ask a United States Supreme
Court justice to stay the execution
pending a petition for a review of
the case—a petition which thé
highest court has once denied.
There has been nothing ts ins
dicate the defense has any new
eviderce of importance. Its ar
gument hefore Judge Davis ye€-
terday was much the same as its
argument before the New Jersey
court of errors and appeals, and
the United States Supreme Court
-—that Hauptmann's constitutional
rights had been violated in the
trial at Flemington both by the
court and by the attorney gener
al.
The Flemington jury, said Burk
inshaw, who spoke for the defense,
was “subjected to hostile opinion”,
was “not properly sequestered”,
and “was. exposed to an over
whelming mob spirit.”
The fiery, dapper attorney gen
eral denied one by one the asser
tions in the habeas carpug peti
tition and described the action as
“a subterfuge and a fraud attempt
ed to be imposed upon this court.”
Approaches Escape
As one by one the legal ap
proaches to escape dwindled, at
tention centered on Governor Hoff
man. Even as Hauptmann's law
vers were seeking a federal writ,
the governor's office made publie
photastat copies of two letters
signed respectively “J. ¥. C.” and
“Dr. John F. Condon.”
The letters, written to persons
not jdentified, appeared to be in
appeared to be in regard to inter
views which the correspondents
apparently sought. Bach letter
contained references to 'some
phases of the Lindbergh baby kid
naping case in which Dr. Con
don—*“Jafsie”—acted as intermed
jary in paying $50,000 ransom.
The governor's office did not
say where the letters were obtain
ed or what special purpose was
served by their release at this
timie other ‘than that they were
regarded as “particularly signifi
cant in that they show !?10 wfl:}
liar workings of the man’s mind.”

AUGUSTA—Construction of the
Augusta canal commission’s 4,000
kilowatt power plant, long delayed
by controversies, faced another
legal bar todey.
Shortly after preliminary work
was started yesterday to meet the
January 15 deadline set by WIPA,
a petition was filed in Richmond
superior court for a permanent In
junction against a contract between
the commission and the Georgia
Power company.
A hearing was set for January
24 and the commission may pro
ceed under the contract until that
date, as the plaintiffs did not seek
a temporary injunction. . .
The group which filed the petis
tion contends that market restrie
tion agreementg on the commis
sion’s plant as set forth tn the con
tract are in violation of the legis
lative act creating the commission.
PWA has approved a grant of
$193,000 for the plant. Addition
funds will be advanced by the
Georgia Power company in return

of refunding which would not be
added to the public debt. ettt
The Democratic authority whe
indicated presidential approval of
the bill contended the $11,300,000,-
000 figure was far from alarming,
He argued that for the time being
the honus would cost nowhere near
the $2,000,000,000 mentioned in some
other sources, and that economis
conditions were improving so rap- .
idly that paying part of the ad
justed service certificates - now
would have little or no disturbing
influence on the money markets,
The new bill bears the names of
Senatorg Harrison, Democrat, Miss
issippi, Byrnes, Democrat, South
Carolina, Eteiwer, Republican, Ore
gon and Clark, Democrat, Miss~
ouri and provides for full payment
of the bonus certificates beginning
next June 15. Under present law
payment is not due until 1945.
The new bill would pay in spec
ial, non-transferable bondg of ssu
denomination, 'The veterans would -
have the option of holding them -
and drawing 3 per cent interest
for nine years. The bill is' ex~ .
pected to go before the senate
Thursday. v :
Prior to its 15 to 2 decision, the
committee voted 18 to 0 to sub
stitute the senate bill for that

house last Friday. The latter mea
sure was somewhat similar in
benefits, but specified no means of
payment, il
