Pittsburgh, Pa., has set the seat
'of the country an example which

?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

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

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.
