THE MOVEMENT

Outlined: The Work

Soon after the armistice warn aigu

v/ith many prohibitionists, it was a
lourliMimi that national pro

i i.-uu-c hegsr in theoiixr about what
Anti Saloon Loague would do
ii' xt. Ur'nilc men on this aide were
thrnilaiiig, cries were coming from
other nations asking for help. Fol
lo'.eing tlu-rc suggestions the Antl
l.vugue culled a conference at Colum

iPih, the same day that the President
* gnad the ‘'war-time1* prohibition
measure. At this gathering were iwp
iitK iiutivci of temperance* organisa
tions from at least, thirty nations,
and these didcgu;?*, with or.e accord,
made the-ir appeals to ths Antl-Saioon
league to "ceme over und help"

phatic that every "doubting Thomas"

went. on record unanimously a* tavor

GODLEY ADJUDGED
SANE BY DOCTORS
Com Through Test Until Wife
Is Mentioned Then He
Breaks Down end Weepa
Kaleigh, Dec. 81.—Churchill L.
Godley, whose electrocution is act tor
January IA pending thorough ti-siiru.
of hie sanity, will not be able to
cacapc the chair on that account. He
made a good score under the exhau*
tive examination of Dr. Louis B. Dae.,
of Asheville.
Godley appears almost as willing
to bo executed as to be called insane,
albeit, his letters to the governor arc
Lite best evidence that anytsody has
been able t<> produce in hia behalf.
Testimony from Dr. Ira M. Hardy,
flrat superintendent of the school for
the feeble-minded, made Godley o
low-grado of moron, moral pervert
added to child-mind.
Dr. Bisch has been down to teal
him and Godley stood up in the ex
amination. One of the»o features In
the stop-watch trial as many laymen
call it, in which the alienist names
war object and the patient tts.-to
date* instantly with it some idea.
When Dr. Bisch would say "bird,"
Godley would immediately think of a
tree. Dr. Biach would say “flower1
and Godloy, "pretty;" the alienist
would eail rapidly and Godley was
ready.
It is one of the objects of these
exparimi-nlnl ions to connect the
crime and the criminal, the layman
would gucm; but when Dr. Bisch
sought to suggest the plight of the
prisoner by bringing him to contem
plation of crime or penalty. Coilley
did not catch it. The alienist said
"chair” and Godley replied "man.”
In another sentence “electricity” and
to Godley it suggested "a menus for
making light.” The doctor called out
lb 11 f if utvi-IIiwJ h a Miinrasirf inn I a.
Godlcy of his wrong against th< 9
>• car-old ciuld, and Godlcy a.tswcrnl
“boy." Anti when the order was re
varsed Gediey thought of “girl.”
The fellow showed no more *mo
;*•*•*•»'* •* P»g until tha alianist said
wife. ’ The prisoner waa allant.
Agaiu the trial and again the failure.
When prcried for an answer he aaid:
'1 can't." He broke down and wept
as a child himself.
