In the meantime the city council
has spent a considerable sum in having plans and specifications drawn
and has emptied the city hall of all

left them out on a limb, but it is not
their fault. Really, if it had not
taken such an interminable time to
secure the various O. Ks’ needed, the
new city hall could _have_been started two months ago. And again, it
was not generally known that June

Loew: who with. Nathan
Leopold, killed an innocent young
boy for the thrill. of it, has himself
been murdered by a fellow prisoner
in Joliet. No one but the parents of
this degenerate will grieve, and
perhaps they can find solace in that
death has closed. ahorrible chapter
in their lives. The episode serves to
call to-mind again one of the most
outrageous. miscarriages of justice
in American history. The parents.of
both young men-were rich. Smart
lawyers succeeded in-saving the killeds’ necks from the henyp. It was one
of those , defeats of justice which
