From the speech by the President at Washington, on July 6th, last, he is quoted as saying that very wealthy men may sometimes play a useful part in life, but rarely are useful, as the lives which are expended in different fields from those of money-getting. To heap riches on riches,' the Presi dent is quoted as saying, is merely an evil. Against this Hearst is quoted m a parallel column as saying there should be, as far as possible, an equal distrib ution of wealth; that he believed in organizations that tend to distribute wealth; that its distribution is as im portant as its creation and that "one iaw-defying millionaire in jail will do more than any other single thing to regulate trust inequality." He referred to the fact that Hooe's deposition had not been used in the divorce case and after reciting the defendant's allegations of his treat ment by the detectives, appealed to ihe jurors to keep in mind the ter xors of the '"third degree," telling them they might some day be vic tims of an army of private detec tives.
