Moscow girl judge says no regret over death sentences
Citizeness Anna Glusman, 25, presiding Moscow district court judge, says crimes against state safety justify death penalties. Since February she has sentenced about 25 people to death, rarely troubled by conscience, while aiming to temper decisions with mercy when possible. She, a Communist party member, lives alone, studied law after leaving school early, and has previously served as a judge in Kharkov. The Moscow district court death rulings can only be mitigated by Russia's supreme court or central executive committee.

Political dope from capitol meeting sparks resignations and appointments
Raleigh April 25 Charley Whedbee, Hertford lawyer and UNC trustee, relays a startling Raleigh story. He credits Solicitor W Evans with transporting the tale of Governor Morrison and Editor Daniels meeting. The yarn says Simmons will resign, Daniels to be Morrison’s choice to succeed Simmons, and Daniels openly backing Angus McLean for governor. Bailey doubts Simmons’s opposition and leans to Hoey or Connor for eventual senatorial picks. A preliminary fraud inquiry involves Thomas H Cooper and J Ruark tied to the Apex bank case, with state welfare board observers and prison controversy looming.
