Excerpt from Some Defects in Our Criminal Code and How to Remedy Them
We live in an age of progress, in an age when the business world, as well as the political world, has taken wonderful steps forward. Conditions surrounding us today are very difierent from those surrounding our fathers, our grandfathers and those before them. Even in religious matters we are told that we must look more to the substance and less to the shadow; that our relig ion must be a practical one, not theoretical. But in law, we find the lawyers and the judges following along some of the old paths, one and even two centuries old. It is my purpose to point out to you briefly some of the defects in the criminal code of Missouri, which to one not a practicing criminal lawyer and to 'a layman will seem almost absurd.
