2 Scraps 1 (1926)

handle is hein.journals/scrapsop2 and id is 1 raw text is: S C R A P S OFFICE OF THE UNITED STATES ATTORNEY SOUTHERN DISTRICT OF NEW YORK Edited by William J. Lillard. VOLUME II. JANUARY 1, 1926 NO. 1 SPEAKING OF THE OFFICE. I have been so busy for three weeks that I have not been able to make my customary visits to the courts. We have had an extremely active month all along the line in all departments as well as a very successful one. A very large number of pleas of guilty in commercial fraud cases shows the impression being made by the staff upon Associated Defendants, Inc., and even more dramatically shows the effect of denial of bail after conviction where there is no reasonable probability of reversal. The entire staff has been under more pressure than at any time during the ten months of our administration and the regular closing hour appears to have been automatically advanced to anywher from six to ten o'clock. Absorption of a large number of new men takes time and necessarily involves various digestive disturbances but we are doing better all the time and the first anniversary on March 2nd ought to register very considerable progress. Sixty days is a long time in this office under present conditions where so many men are without previous experience in public work. Digitized from Best Copy Available
