PENALTIES ARE LESS SEVERE U.S. Postal Laws Once Prescribed Severe Punishment For Violations Indianapolis, July 26 —(UP) — "A little of the old-time justice might go a long way checking the present wave of lawlessness." This remark by W. C. (Hill) Ehl, United States Postal Inspector, was occasioned by the preusal of an oily copy of Postal laws and regulations, issued by J. Holt. Postmaster General, on April 1, 1859. Under the heading "Depredations of the Malls,’’ the postal laws of that time provided a sentence of five to ten years for a first attempt to rob any carrier of the U. S. mails, with a death sentence compulsary for a second ot fence. It was also provided that where, on even the first offense, A carrier ot the mail was wounded or his life placed in jeopardy by the use of danger oils weapons, the offender “shal suffer death." “Now the maximum sentence t mail robber can get, unless Iq; killed is 25 years," Ela commended. Some get off witli as little as six months. Ela was one of the two inspector)detailed to gather evidence against Chapman and Anderson, and attended Chapman's trial at Hartford Conn, where the outlaw finally was sentenc ed to death for his crimes. » o X*¥¥*******¥X * WILLSHIRE NEWS * * By * * Miss Jessie Reichard * :;*¥¥***¥****k Mr. and Mrs. W.
