Duty of Court on Lennon Case Guards and Jury Limits
A Federal judge in the Lennon case emphasizes court duty to protect defendants during wartime trials and asserts juries should not decide on patriotism. The court dismisses Lennon for insufficient evidence, noting the law first determines if charges are proven and warning against sending cases to juries when evidence is lacking. The ruling discusses conspiracy charges against James E. Treanor and cautions that guilt must align with the indictment and proven conspiracy, not merely distributing circulars or intent to commit murder.
