Will Hereafter Have More Respect For Dog
A juvenile court case in Houston Texas found a 13 year old boy guilty of cruelty to a dog and ordered him to write a dog tale 500 times. The judge paroled him to his father who was instructed to spank him. Senator Vest had previously represented a man whose dog was shot by a neighbor and the trial included a speech praising a dog as man’s best friend. The jury awarded $500 in damages after hearing the speaker extol the dog’s loyalty and steadfastness. The document also touches on politics and government staffing concerns in the South and a push to appoint more southern workers to federal commissions, including criticism of Coolidge era policy and calls to rebalance the Interstate Commerce Commission.
