The Hauptman Case .
(Contributed)
The Hauptman case has left: America with a distinctly
soa taste in the mouth, and slightly nauseated at the whole
sorry spectacle. Never has there been a more disgraceful
travesty on the metheds of justice. New Jersey can scarcely
be proud, whichever way you view the question of Hauptmanns guilt.
First, there was the exaggerated showmanship of the
trial itself. More att@ntion was paid to drama and histrionic
effects, it seems, than to the solemn job of trying a man for
one of the most shocking crimes in history.
Then the delay, the bickerings, the dramatizations in
magazines, and the final. windup in a maze of politics—all
these things served to torture unduly the condemned man
thimeelf,.the public, and the world’s opinion of American
justice.
One major weakness in our judicial system must take
blame for:some of the confusion. Courts of Appeal, in this
y, may. consider only technical points of trial procedure
,and not the actual matter of guilt or incount

mete Highways of the Future
(Contributed)
Earl Lee Kelly, director of public works in California, is
going to ask the legislature to let him build a new way—the
way of the future—on a highway the state is planning to
construct. 1
Last week he told his proposal for the heavily travelled
route through Altamont Pass, near Oakland. Instead of remodelling the old road, he wants to build an_ entirely new
highway parallel to it for the exclusive -use-of passenger automobiles, leaving the old one for trucks. se
Director » Kelly has heard, and understands, the statewide plea for relief from the too rapid increase of busses and
trucks.
Taking a peek into the future, when wide, safe, fast,
truckless super highways must come everywhere, he says,
“Such a system throughout the ‘state would eliminate many
traffic fatalities.”
There is only one hitch—the cost of a double highway
system. Who.-will bear it? The stand of the public here and
everywhere in the state should be made clear to everyone
once and for all, now—at the start. Commercial vehicles must
bear their share—the interest on investment and maintenance
cost of their half of the highway of the future.
All this is, of course, only a vision of what is to come
years hence. Today the immediate problem remains adequate
regulation of commercial vehicles, and action to prevent further excess of them.
But Earl Lee Kelly’s plan, the first-definite proposal for
a double road, is at least the beginning of a new era in highway construction. And once the matter of costs is fairly adjusted, California may swing ahead with characteristic vigor
toward that new era.
The highway of the future is definitely on its way.

America had its floods, dust storms, and the political

lack of one, plus another registration scramble, plus all the
berserk jockeying for the May primary election.
Yes, March went out like a lion this year—and mad as
