Robert I.athan, the talented editor
of the Charlwfton News and Courier
h<v Ih'<-ii awaixk'd it $500 prize fo*
the best editorial appearing in ricw<4>
papers during the past year. The
prize was given by the4 I'ulitizei
rH'lioo) <>f journalism of Columbia uni
versity. The editorial, entitled "The
1M ght ? f the South" appeared in the
?Nf\vi and Courier of November r>,
4U2-1. Mr. La than has been editot
of the News and Courier since the
, .spring of 1U10. At the time he took
ovei the editorial direction of the
News and Courier he was the youngs
est' editor of a recognized daily news,
paper. James W. Mulroy and Alvin
U. Goldstein, reporters on the staff
oi ihe Chicago DflHy News, won the
?$1,000 prize, in duplicate, "for the
bust example of a importer's work
duriiiK the year.'" The award was
made in recognition of their services
toward -the solution of the murder of
Ivobeil Franks, Jr., by Nathan V.
Leopold- and Richard Loeb.
Says Governor McLean of North
Carolina: "Capital punishment
should Ik' administered only in ex
treme cases, but I consider it very
necessary for the protection of so*
ciety." Governor McLean's state
ment was in answer to a letter re*
cently received by him from Rev. W,
A. Stftndbury, Methodist minister of
Raleigh, who tpronouneed the execu
tion of the Stewarts "utterly bar
barous, cruel and unjustifiable." It
is true that capital punishment sends:
* coId chill down the spine. It is a
solemn thing to take the responsi
bility of snuffing out a human life,
even tin- life of a desperate crimi
nal. ftut it is also true that so
long as there is capital crime there
will have to be capital punishment.
The burden of responsibility rests
upon the criminal, not upon organized
society that has willed his death.
There is entirely too much maudlin j
sympathy for criminals the world |
over. This is one of the reasons why I
it is difficult to bring them to jus- j
tii(\ Law. to be effective, must have!
teeth, t! cannot have teeth without
power, (:'power without the ability
to enforce its will. To stop short
of the death penalty t? to top short
of sovereignty, and -law without sov
eieignty i- but a s'ham.and d. la-ion.
