Bachrach brought out that many phases of Dr. Hulbert’a examination were turned over for use by the other defense alienists, and therefore were not made a part of the testimony. Stivss Normal Emotions Crowe, In his cross-examination today, concentrated his efforts toward an attempt to show presence of normal emotions In Leopold and Loeb. Crowe, Monday, turned Dr. Hulbert into a witness for the State when ho forced him to admit the boys possessed emotions of laughter, fear, and even sympathy. If Crowe can show Chief Justice John R. Caverly the youths possess normal emotions he feels he will have leveled an Important part of the defense structure. The defense contends Nathan and Richard are “childish In their emotions” and that the killing of Robert was due largely to the lack of adult emotions.

“Merely Criminals” Dr. Hulbert was still under crossexamination today. Crowe said he would prove by the defense’s own medical testimony and by State’s alienists the youths were and are normal and that instead of being pathological freaks are “merely: criminals.’’ Due to length of time Crowe has ; spent In cross-examining defense witnesses, Clarence Darrow, chief defense attorney, has been forced to | postpone closing his case on sched- j ule. Darrow hopes to close today, I with four or five lay witnesses. Ajlan Loeb, Richard's brother, la one of these witnesses. Another is Jacob Loeb. uncle of Richard. Foreman Leopold will he the only member of the Leopold family to take the stand, Darrow said. Then he expects to place Leonard Tucker, chauffeur for the Loeb family, on the stand. Darrow said he woujd question them only briefly. These witnesses will round out tho defense of irresponsibility, Darrow said. They will testify to the idiosyncrasies of the youthful slayers and Identify photographs and other defense exhibits. Police to Testify Crowe plans to follow with Lawrence Cune, his secretary and Police Sergt. Thomas O’Malley, who were present when the youths made their murder confessions. Cune and O’Malley will tell of the emotion exhibited by the youths, to strengthen Crowe’s assertion that Nathan and Richard possessed normal emotions. The four State alienists, who will attack the defense medical testimony, are Doctors Harold D. Singer, Archlbal Church, William O. Krohn and Hugh D. Patrick. Dr. Patrick probably will be the first of the alienists to testify. Crowe proposes .o shew - j youths practiced deception or. A.,fense alienist/, hiding important details with-' out which the conclusions of the alienists are faulty. He also expects to show the youths were schooled in some of the fantastic stories of their “phantasy lives” and thaf has simply applied strange names to the everyday actions of normal individuals in effort to save the slayers from consequences of their crime.

vestment bonds and paid off the Barrett bonds. In the transactions, however, it was found that sometimes bonds ol equal interest rate were not available so that the reinvestment did not produce enough money to meet the entire Barrett bond Interest pay ui.nt % uni Sinking Fluid Created The Legislature then created what is known as the improvement sinking fund. For ten years the city was empowered to fix a tax levy of 1 cent a year with which to meet this deficit. The situation became more serious when Federal Court declared that ’he regular and advance payments by taxpayers was a species of “trust fund” and that as .inch the controller could not re-in vest it. It followed that the county treasurer was tho only person who could handle tho money until tho time for retirement of the Barrett bonds arrived. There was no provision where the funds were to be kept nor how the interest was tr be disposed of. Result has been that for years county treasurers have been depositing or investing these funds, sometimes reaching $1,000,000, and pocketing the interest. Accountant* Helpless State accountants say they have been unable to find any way to stop the practice. One treasurer, faced with public criticism, said he would place the interest wherever any one could legally direct him. The answer was not forthcoming and the treasurers continue to get the interest. It is this Federal Court ruling which a way to modify may be sought. Meanwhile the ten-vear period for the 1-eent levy has expired. There will be no such levy next year. City controller’s books show the levy in the last ten years has produced $232,778.76, of which $171.996.79 has been spent upon deficits, leaving $60,781.97 in the fund. Levy Extension Discussed It may be necessary to ask the 1925 Legislature to extend this levy for another ten-year period, it was pointed out. This, however, would not eliminate the situation whereby citizens must pay taxes to meet a deficit which night be almost wiped out, could the city g, i the interest on the Barrett law funds which county treasurer now' is permitted to pocket. An example of how high the fund which the treasurer gets the benefit of runs is contained in the balance for Dec. 31, 1923, the latest figure available. It was $772,637.07.

ART OF COOKING BEING RESCUED BY UNIVERSITIES Women Are Coming to RealValue of Domestic Science, By Times Special CHICAGO, Aug. 12.—The art of cooking that has been -almost lost in American homes for a generation is being rescued by the universities, colleges and schools, according to Miss Anna E. Fhelan, high secretary of the Women’s Catholic Order o fForesters, who is chairman of a committee from three Chicago courts to raise $50,000 for a chair of domestic science in De Paul University. “Our grandmothers taught their daughters to cook because all the cooking was done in the home,” Miss Phelan said. “All the entertaining w r as done at home and the woman who could not provide delectable food was not a popular hostess. Then along came khe caterer, the hotel parties, the apartment life and the delict. issen shop and the art of home cooking was threatened with extinction. “Women are coming to realize the necessity of having a knowledge of domestic science. The way to a man’s heart doesn’t seem to have changed, and an army isn’t the only organization that travels on its stomach. “This is the first time any Forester courts have taken an active interest providing ways and means foteaching domestic science. These courts have made their pledge in recognition of the need of such a chair and also as an appreciation of De Paul University’s pioneering in co-education.”
