In an unofficial vote of all present the bill was rejected :t7 to 21. The President of the Phi, Jess Stribling, turned the (hair over to Parliamentarian Don Cray at the opening of the meeting and intro duced the bill himself. President Strbiling began by show ing how Pound's abnormal youth tended toward irrationality and even insanity. He also minimized the ef fect of the allegedly treasonable statements made by the poet over the Italian radio during World War Two. I'rges Release Finally stating that since Pound's ipsanity is not criminal and since his imprisonment impairs his poetic out-put, Strbiling urged that Pound be released into the care of his wife. Various other speakers referred to Ezra Pound's insanity and point ed out that no insane man. poet or not, should be released. Hep. Don Jacobs noted that Pound would have to stand trial for trea son if released and was still manag ing to write good poetry in St. Elizabeth's. The vote then was taken, and the bill passed. Dr. Cotten of the Department of English rose to give a criticism of the arguments presented during the debate.
