Though beautiful in themselves, the blue flnwus will not be conspicuous, but will serve as it perfect back- ground for others.

That it Question Sir Alan Loses LONDON - (C?) --If a burglar disturbs your beauty sleep, what should you do about it? Get out the old shooting iron or take it lying down? - Sir Alan Herbert, playwright, wit and former parliamentarian. whose logical mind often rebels at the little quirks in British law. pops the question. His own answer, as outlined in an article in the Sunday Times. is that a private citizen who catches a burglar red-hand'ed has not only a right, but a duty. to arrest him. If the burglar. ')iav- lng notice thereof resists, or files," the householder, says Sir Alsn, should take up the nearest weapon, smite the intruder might- ily and if,the intruder dies it is justifiable homicide. Three days after these forth- right words were published, a London court took a different view. David Stu-lely, 32, of North- wood, Mlddlesex, was obliged to pay costs of 20 gulneas for taking a pot shot at a man who entered by a window and started flashing a light around Starley'a bedroom. Starley shouted at the intruder. then pulled the trigger. He was convicted for unlawfully wounding, and the prosecutor said: "It is the duty, as I under- stand it, of any citizen who knows that a felony has been- commit- tecriiloiospprehend the felon, but that citizen is not entitled to take the extreme step of shooting unless there is no other means of apprehension. It seems curious that Starley made no attempt to follow the man." No Mercy The question of to shoot or not to shoot promptly set off a live- ly correspondence, with most readers in favor of' showing no mercy at all, Viscount Hailaham. better known as Quinton Hogg when he was a Conservative mem- ber of the House of Commons. challenged -the idea that any householder should feel bound to "chase his quarry through the darkness clad in pyjamas and bsrefooted." From Chipping Sodbury in Glou- cestersliire. 82-year-old Bertram Horne wrote to say he had two friends murdered in their beds by burglars, had no intention of suffering a similar fate and con- sidered it fair warning that a sign in his basement window reads: "Warning, burglars will be shot on sight." Horne said he has shot many species of vermin and hopes to add a burglar to the list.
