TRESPASS LAW GOES TO
HIGH COURT
J%!’
By The Associated Press
The 1960 anti-trespass law which
makes it a misdemeanor for a per¬
son to refuse to leave private pro
oerty upon request will be argued
before the state Supreme Court Oct.
9.
Attorneys for 22 Negroes who
were arrested, convicted and fined
$100 each during sit-in demonstra¬
tions at Savannah maintain that the
anti-trespass' law W|as unconstitu¬
tionally applied. They say it allow¬
ed store owners to perpetuate racial
discrimination.
Included in the appeal is the con¬
viction of 10 other Negroes charged
tinder an 1865 law with unlawful
assembly. The attorneys say that in
this case, there is no evidence they
had assembled to committ an un¬
lawful act.
The state argues that the 10 Ne¬
groes knew their presence would
cause the lunch counter to be shut
down and therefore were gathered
to disturb the peace.
Last January the State Court of
Appeals upheld all 32 convictions.
If they are upheld by the state’s
highest court, the attorneys say
they will be taken to the U. S. Su¬
preme Court.
THE FALL OF AN UMPIRE
In the year 1788, Edward Gibbon
completed his monumental work,
“The Decline and Fall of the Ro¬
man Empire”, in which he listed
these five reasons for that fall;
(l 1 ) The rapid increase of divorce.
The undermining of the dignity and
sancity of home, which is the basis
of human society.
(2) Higher and higher taxes and
the spending of public money for
free bread and circuses for the
populace.
(3) The mad craze of pleasure,
sports becoming every year more
exciting and more brutal.
(4) The building of gigantic ar¬
maments when the real enemy was
within, the decadance of the people.
(5) The deeay of religion - faith
fading into mere form - losing
touch with life and becoming im¬
potent to guide the people.

DOG KILLING MUST BE
JUSTIFIED
Under Georgia lav/, a dog is per¬
sonal property of value and anyone
wrongfully killing a dog is responsi¬
ble to the dog owner for its value,
unless the killing was justified. A
person may have absolute justifica¬
tion in killing a mad dog or an unin
oculatcd dog who is actually attack¬
ing a human being or another valu
able animal. He usually will be justi¬
fied in killing a large or fierce and
vicious dog which is apparently in
the process of attacking' him or an¬
other human being and also his
property if the value of the property
exceeds the value of the dog. The
seriousness of the impending attack
has a direct relationship to the
method of defense adopted. While
killing a German Shepherd might
be justified under given circumstan¬
ces, the killing of a Manchester un¬
der the same circumstances might
not.
As a general rule, a landowner
has no right to kill a trespassing
dog merely because the dog is tres¬
passing upon his premises. It has
been said that a dog is like a man
in one respect at least—that is, he
will do wrong sometimes, and if the
wrong is slight or trivial and the
value of the dog exceeds the amount
of damage he is doing, he does not
thereby forfeit his life. The land
owner has the right to use what¬
ever force is necessary against a
trespassing dog in defense of his
family, his person, or his property.
Most courts have held that the dog
must be actually engaged in an act
of depredation at the time of the
killing in order to justify it. Clearly
you cannot chase the dog away and
kill it later, or pursue it for miles
and kill it when you catch up with
it. The dog must be actually attack¬
ing or destroying or be apparently
about do so. —Atlanta Journal
