District Attorney Geoghan the next day scored the exemptions. Judge Taylor said: "I have already seen the Commissioner of Jurors in regard to Brooklyn juries. He is in sympathy with legislative reform on the subject of exemptions. This, Jiowever, is not the vital spot. 'Getting Below Average' "There is no question but that we are getting below average intelligence and moral courage in the line of jury service.

A large percentage of those who sit in Jury boxes are wholly unfitted both mentally and morally to decide guilt or innocence. "Two out of three guilty men are foolishly acquitted by trial Juries. Men of intelligence who serve on juries are disgusted with this situation. Those lacking intelligence make up for It with pig-hcadedness.

Goal Won by Iiritisb Scientists Effect Is in Doubt London, May 2 Two younj scientists of Cambridge University were hailed today as having achieved a great goal physicists have sought to reach for years they have broken the atom. Announcing details of what called "a discovery of great scientific importance," Lord Rutherford, noted scientist, said Drs. J. D. Cock-roft and E.

T. S. Walton accomplished the feat after several years of work with apparatus erected under his supervision. Dr. Cockroft said he and his colleague bombarded hydrogen atom with a voltage of 120.000 and that under the bombardment the hydrogen atoms began to break up into helium, a still rarer gas.

The helium atoms, he said, came out of the bombardment with energies of 100 to lfiO times those of the particles fired Into them. Results Are in Doubt Only one particle broke up, however, for every 10.000.000 particles used to bombard it, he said. Dr. Cockroft, the older of the two experimenters, is only 34. Optimistic scientists have long hoped to split an atom, some contending that hen this feat was accomplished a boundless source, of energy would be available.

Thero have even been extremists who feared the accomplishment would mean the hurling of the world to destruction. "It is difficult to say to what thia discovery may lead," Lord Rutherford said. "Up to the present tha experiments have not yielded a' v. thing which will be of immediate commercial value. "I have seen it stated that this discovery would make possible the production of an immense accumulation of added electrical energy for commercial purposes.

But we cannot claim that for our experiments up to the present, because for every particle of energy we get it requires milllions of particles to make it effective. "These experiments, however, are of great scientific interest and ar likely to be powerful helps in extending our knowledge of the earth." Train on First Run Kills 6 at Crossing Marshfield, May 2 liPtA crack Soo Line passenger train on its first run from Chicago to Minneapolis killed six persons, wiping out an entire family, when it struck and demolished an automobile at a grade crossing near here yesterday.

83 Siodi Sft ii Paris, May 2 OP) A slight but nevertheless definite trend to the Literal Left in yesterday's preliminary election of the Chamber of Deputies was confirmed by the summary of the Ministry of the Interior today. This official tabulation showed that 248 deputies, or more than one-third of the chamber, had been seated by the flrst vote. The remaining 367 seats will be filled In next Sunday's run-off with the exception of four Colonial seats, which will be decided later in the year. Herriot Party Gain The largest numerical group gaining a definite place yesterday were the Radical Socialists of the veteran Mayor of Lyons, Edouard Herriot, who got 63 seats, a gain of four. Thus encouraged the Radicals (Liberals) began a new intensive campaign to transform the movement to the Left into a pronounced victory.

They hoped to have weaker candidates, including some Socialists, withdraw, thus making their success certain. Similar maneuvering appeared among the Conservatives of the Right and the Right Center, the groups which form the present uovernment of Premier Andre Tardieu. Predict Coalition Cabinet Independent newspapers today warned that it would be unwise to predict too much from yesterday's Leftist tendency, emphasizing that It was no landslide. These newspapers forecast, however, a concentration cabinet led either by Herriot or Tardieu. Those elected, according to the tabulation today, were Conservatives 3 Republican Democratic Union 44 Independent Republicans 13 Popular Democrats 10 Left Republicans 37 Independent Radicals 25 Radical Socialists 63 Independent Socialists 4 Republican Socialists 5 Socialists 40 Communistic Socialists 3 Communists 1 Leon Blum, Socialist leader, was elected.

Then with a Nijinsky leap she vaulted on him with both hands and feet and began using toes, elbows, fists and fingernails as rapidly as possible. Sue was immediately reinforced by Miss Bach-man, who began kicking the prostrate robber in the face first from one side then the other.

Then, suddenly, Miss Harrier desisted as she thought of her brave Jimmy and turned to see what part he was taking in the matutinal workout. All she saw was a pair of coattails flying around the corner. The girl's screams by this time had attracted the attention of Patrolman Raphael Santori. who relieved the belligerent girls of their victim.

Kelley Role in Donbt The four accused of assaulting Mrs. Massie last September are Horace Ida, Japanese; Henry Chang, Chinese; David Takia, Japanese, and Ben Ahakeulo, Hawaiian.

Thomas H. Massie, Mrs. Massie 's husband; Mrs. Granville Fortcscuc, her mother, and E. J.

Lord and Albert O. Jones were convicted of manslaughter. Whether Kelley would conduct the prosecution has been a subject of speculation. It is widely felt his vigorous prosecution of Lieutenant Massie and his co-defendants would make it embarrassing for him to do so. Mrs.

Massie to Testify The question of whether Mrs. Massie would testify at the retrial was settled yesterday when Robert Bell of New York, her uncle, announced she would. There had been reports that because of Kelley's attitude Mrs. Massie would not testify again. Deputy Attorney General Harold Kay said new evidence had been found and the Territory would have an "infinitely stronger case than when the first trial was held.

He predicted the retrial would start within two weeks. Dr. Leavilt Backs Verdict With the single exception of Dr. Horace H. Leavitt.

pastor of Central Union Church, Honolulu, who was former pastor of the Presbyterian Union Church of Bay Ridge, the clergy of Honolulu were unanimous in expressing disapproval of the Massie jury verdict, according to dispatches yesterday. Dr. Leavitt was reported as saying: "I approve the verdict. I feel that substantial Justice has been rendered. I approve the plea for leniency because there was great provocation for killing.

"There had to be some recognition of the human life taken, for the law could not tolerate such action." John J. O'Keefe Dies; Inspector 29 Years A requiem mass will be offered tomorrow for John J.

SEES ATOM SPLIT Lord Rutherford Court Watchman Ends 50 Years in Temporary' Job A half century has rolled by since George Gallagher took up his post as night watchman in the building where the Brooklyn Supreme Court holds Its sessions. In all that time he has been absent less than 40 days because of illness. When he got his job he was told lt would be "temporary." Time was when George worked seven nights a week and in late years the officials have had to urge him to take his month off in the Summer. He so seldom indulged in unnecessary conversation that some of his friends call hiin "Silent George." Today they gave George a purse.

Presiding Justice Edward Lazansky came over from the Appellate Division to make the presentation speech in the library of the Judges. Justices Cropsey, Faber, Lewis. Dunne, Steinbrink, Lockwood and others shook hands with George. George lived up to his soubriquet. He simply said: "Thank you, gentlemen," bowed and walked out.

Then he walked to his home at 547 Bergen more than one mile away, to get some sleep before resuming watch tonight. Olvany Firm Ones Him $30,000 Fee.

"Every judge knows what the trot'e Everybody who knows anytr.vg gets off. The evil will continue until the discretionary excuse is abolished by law and until cancellation of the qualification notices is likewise stopped by law. 'Law Is Disregarded' "Even now It is a misdemeanor for anybody to 'take' a jury notice, yet everybody Is merrily in the game of disregarding the law and trying to oblige friends. "Dumb-looking Jurors shouldn't be permitted to qualify and the intelligent element should be compelled to serve. "I am as obliging as anybody and I suppose I shall be as long as the law Is as it is, but I doubt if there is a Judge who docs not think the law should be changed and would not shout his feelings from the housetops but for fear of being misunderstood by personal and political friends." Judge Martin said: "As a judge I say that if a judge could comment on the testimony we would have better verdicts and many convictions not now secured.

This is a system employed in the United States courts. Points Missed Often "A growing animosity toward the police and an ignorance of jury service have contributed to poor verdicts in Brooklyn this year. Then, too, the defense lawyers and prosecutors approach cases from different angles and frequently miss the great point in a case." Judge McLaughlin said: "The rankind file of Jurors we get is very good. Any changes in exemptions would be up to the Legislature. The experience of all Judges Is different.

The reaction of a judge to a 'verdict is a matter of individual temperament." County Judge John J. Fitzgerald: "As exemptions are fixed by law, only the legislature can help. Prosecutions In all cases tried before me have been efficient and earnest and aggressive. I have no complaint against the District Attorney's office.
