for their fine cooperation during our washarama held last saturday controversial corner by km cass let us not aboush capital punishment when a criminal convicted of murder is sentenced to death there folbws a loud public outcry against capital punishment h seems mat even when a particularly brutal or coldblooded murder is involved mere is still plenty of public feeling against the death sentence the movement to abolish capital punishment has beer active for some time and has been completely successful in some countries that the abotihornsts are having considerable success in canada is obvious from the number of death sentences which have been commuted to hfe imprisonment by the present govern ment innocent bystander the abolitio uts of capital punishment will not be moved one jot from their stand the people who have any say in the matter will sadly observe the poor boy is sick we must get him back to hospital t there will be no public outcry there will be no big public fund raising for tine dependents of the dead we live in a society which will tolerate thousands killed on the jroeds thousands failed by fire mrough inadequate housing but will stand on its hind legs and wudly paw the air at the thought of the painless extermination of some of its worst the arguments put toward ag alnst the death sentence are many and varied life is inviolate and no judicial system has the right to take a hfe it is contrary to the christian belief it fails to reduce the crime it punishes an innocent man may be executed and so on there an be no doubt that capital punishment if applied to every person convicted of murder would be a grim travesty of justice at the same time the energetic at tempts made to find extenuating circumstances for every homicide are difficult to support i do not believe in the aboli tion- of capital punishment not under existing judicial and penal systems at least i believe thtft murder when committed for gain or to satisfy lust murder asa re sult of personal enmity or uncon trolled violence or because of sad islic inhumanity should be punish ed by death provided that there is no doubt regarding the guilt of a person so punished this opin ion is unshaken by pitiful stories of mental stress drunkenness in sanity or loss of memory the world is full of misguided do good ers who arc prepared to tolerate eery crime in the book and who grasp eagerly at any extenuating circumstances real or imaginary i do not believe in the death sentence when the accused is con victed on circumstantial evidence alone nor where the guilt has not been proved beyond doubt neither do i believe in the death sent ence where there was established provocation or where selfdefence was proven it is clear that each case must be decided individual and reprieves granted in some in stances it seems to me that too manj cold blooded vicious murderers are escaping the death penalty now the maudlin stones regarding the possible innocence of some of these monsters the tear jerking interviews with his relatives and friends no doubt make it much eas ler for him to escape his just icssirts it is strange that there arc usuall fewer tears available for the innocent victim and his fjm u mam people appear to be most concerned that the mur derer shouh not im executed but there seem to he a shortage of concern rclardmj the welfare of the wclim or of anj

man who had been char ged with the murder of his fath stepmother and five young children has escaped from a mental institution where he had been heh for observation all that lay be tween this suspected mass killer and freedom was a bit of wire mesh and a pane of glass this situation arose because we have reached the stage where a crime of bloody vio lence can be treated as a matter for medical treatment and nothing else there is a homble truth about the old saying act a little barmy and you can get away with murder this man was 22 years old was able to dnve a car and use a gun he was also capable of hiding the seven bodies of his victims so far he has succeeded in evading one of the largest manhunts in ca nadian history this does not nec essarily prove his sanity but if he can learn these things he can dif ferentiate between right and wrong whether or not this man could ever be a useful member of iociety is unimportant the en ergies of mental doctors are des perately needed elsewhere and should not be wasted on cases of this sort the man knew that his actions were wrong he turned his back on society and destroed seven lives he should have paid the supreme penalty if
