Pittsburgh, Pa., has set the seat 'of the country an example which '- ? > Should he followed. By order of the -fr & f pernt i : <h nt of police third dew ?trffce iifrttiols of obtaining confessions from prisoners accused of crlms are no longer permitted. This action was taken in purt as the result of tnals it which prisoners from whom conf?.'f slum had been wrung In thla Why wcro ucuuitted. The confessions were ih town out of court. This Is a prac Ignored by police officials who know * Hint it is not the number of arrests but the number of convictions that count. ft cannot be denied that confessions are sometimes obtained by extreme methods that could not otherwise be obtained, but the use of such nietliodn taints every "confession" thus forced. Confession by torture Is commonly thought of as medieval. it has no place in modern times. five warm wo'atKcr and the advent of spring, when motoring becomes more popular than at any other season of the yeur, remind one of the neccsily f;r a mors stringent enforcement of the rules regulutlng motor traffic. There arc State statutes and city) ordinance# to cover disregard for the rights of others, but If a public abroad in motor curs is Indifferent to the rples of the road, then there must ho'drastic action to enforce the rules. There are limes when a pedestrian takes his llfo in his bands when he ventures on the Btroets. In the larSKe-iij'Ker cities especially the man or woman on loot, even with their faculties alive to the situation, are in danger, while the child playing In the street, indifferent to everything except i he, exuberance of youth, is too often the victim of n careless driver.. The speedster should be given little 'consideration, for by the act of speeding he endangers huntun life. Too many drivers are brutally Insolent and wholly indifferent to the safety aund Convenience of pedestrians. There is something wcuk and wrong with a government, bo it State or city, that permits speeding to go- unchecked. M ' Hitting the HulLscyc.
