UNION RECORDER, MILLELGEVILLE, GA., JULY 2«, 1928 ? ? ,BY JERE N. MOORE) ; perjury a crime nr a privilege Chav Tuttle in a recent u»ue of c.rtury. In dunlins with this sub ject he tells us this: “Crimnal justice hat become , ,vcd in a web of perjury. False 'lire has became a daily and al- unremarked episode.” Reput- Ije men will swear falsely to escape . .,.rvice and then denounce the fracduency of bad verdicts. ..U,. rt . then is an offense which u-n . K . l that which is the very life social compact—the udmin- “rtr-uon of justice. It Rereads an- V h m the very temple of law and order Why then in pratice is it i „ of a privilege than a crime? administering of the oath in indifferent manner makes a wit- imiifferent to its substance. The importance of the oath should be firmly impressed upon each witness, ity that the o-ssential nature of the ceremony cannot be over look ed." . Mr. Tuttle bears out the fact in article that the courst and at- •.unevs look upon perjury too lightly ; ':id its continued and increasing prac tice has shackled justice. Every, lawyer and every presiding judge should make it his very service to M .f that this practice is stopped. The old common law punished aj perjurer with death. Bearing false witness under the name of God is the only separately condemned ir. two of God’s Commandments. In England the trial judge will committ the v*' r jurcr on the spot, and it should become a rule and guide in American courts. Four great influences stund out to lessen this practice more than all the law that could be enacted, the home, the church the school, und the community center. The child should Ik- taught that false swearnig is one of the greater sins of life. The last two men who have gone to the electric chair have stood on the brink of eternity und mude the charge. “Falsie swearin ghas put me where I am, they have sworn my life away.” The punishment of evil should he swift—and just and there ran be no justice when the practice >f perjury becomes an accepted fact. The influence for good has never been obtained by condemning the other man for his failures, but by precept and example living a life that would be worthy of patenting by others. Friday July 13th. has come und gone and w’ith it has gone the last hardluek day of 1928. We are all ufflicted more or lesM with some superstition. The number 13 seems to be the chief boogn boo with those who have the rftiperstitious complex. While we do not boast of the fact that we are free of all superstitions, we have always more or lesy courted the favor of thirteen. It has never put a fear in our heart und on the other hand we have leaned toward it as a day of good luck. Lady luck showered down a recent Friday thirteenth, which caused us to hold a fonder affection for it than ever before. PUBLIC SALE GEORGIA, Baldwin County: Under and by virtue of n parsed by Judge James B. Lately I have become aware of the difference when I urn driving my car and when I am afoot. I urn resentful when I start across the street and some car narrowly nii*«es me as I make u dash for the opposite curb. I turn and glare angrily at the driver, for I am very jealous of my rights as n pedestrian. It is entirely different when I am ut the wheel. I cannot understand why these people dart in front of my car and are so slow in moving ucross* the street. I insist on the right-of- way ainl have no patience with those who muke me slow up or stop to miss them. I get out on the open fond and soon find myself es a rival with the fellow going in the .same direction. 1 know that my car runs best at twenty- five miles an hour but just let sonu driver honk at me and down goes my foot on the accelerator, or on th< other hand let me drive up behind a car and I must put on an extra burst of speed and go around him. see this on every highway. I know it is dangerous driving, but the thrill in it makes me keep it up. This same disregard for pedestrian*! rights, that keen rivalry that de ‘velopes on the open road and the everlasting race for time result the large number of auto accidents recorded every duy. glad I am not alone in 1 failings. There are two ways for Correction, increase in the severity of police supervision and by uroused public opinion. The addition of more speed law i the city and state books do noth- g more thun increase the number to be broken. We cannot adopt the cm of passing the violation of person up and punishing another, must enforce the traffic and d laws with the same regularity.
