In the Trial Courts our position is the same, but here the position changes because naturally the defendant is not working to the same end. This forces the district attorney to fight to keep the truth from concealment., to keep out false and improper testimony and to avoid the jury's being deceived. It sometimes places him in the unfair position of seeming to be vindic- tive against the dependent where the fact is that he merely deter- mined that the jury shall not be denied the opportunity of learning their several que^s for executive clemency or shortening of their time by the parole authorities.

Cooperation on the part of all good citizens in the enforcement of the law is necessary in order that the law may be vigours-ly and effi- ciently enforced. This cooperation i3 especially essential and helpful to peace officers in instituting criminal proceedings. I have always found that the good citizens of the County of St. Lawrence were ready and willing at all times to uphold proper enforcement of the law and this has been demonstrated in a very definite way as a result of the organization of what is known as St. Lawrence County Police pro- tective Association. This organiza- tion is a subdivision of a State wide organization and practically all of the active police officers of the County are now members of the same. In addition to the active members, prominent citizens in var- ious parts of the County were ask- ed to become members of the same and all of the people invited to be- come such honorary members I am informed have done so. The purpose of such an organization was not only to effect a better co- operation in peace work among the officers of St. Lawrence County, but also to secure more active co- operation on the part of the citizens generally. These honorary mem- bers include executive officers of the City oi\ Ogdensburg and the village? of the County as well as other citizens and these men have come to recognize the benefits of such an organization and have publicly attested to the same. The continuance of this organization with definite 'purpose to bring •about better cooperation among the peace officers and the citizens gen- erally and a more efficient admin- istration of the criminal law should be encouraged.

Abandonment of children, perha-ps the crime for which most persons are sought to be returned from other states, creates a partic-! nlarly difficult .situation in most cases. The wives and children are of course in *iire straits but these are the most difficult cases in whicn to obtain action by other States.
