(From "Truth's"' Special Auckland Representative.) JJORACE Vincent Byrne Speight is probably calling himself a lucky man. It is doubtful whether even his counsel was optimistic enough to think that he would get off with probation for his theft of liquor and subsequent disposal of it to a publican.

f-wr T may be that the moderate W tone adopted by Counsel \W Allah Moody was mno |f|Jg§ small degree responsible. Mil Counsel explained to "" Judge Stringer at . the Auckland Supreme Court that Speight had been drinking to excess, and on the day of his foolishness he had taken too much liquor. ■• '•■■ .. ' : During the war he had risen ■■; from a private to an officer m the field- ;. . y> ■,■ / Speight had indeed had. Quite a brilliant career m the army; he had been m the tank corps and finished ; up m the air service. ' . . This was an isolated instance so far

as he was concerned and a typical case for probation, argued counsel. His Honor said that he did not as a rule grant probation m such cases, but the offence was committed while under the influence of liquor. Taking 'into consideration the . previous ' good character of the accused he would extend the benefits of pVobation. . Speight, ' who stood smartly m the dock while the facts were considered, was obviously relieved' when the judge finalized matters by putting him on two years', probation and ordering him to make restitution, at the same time warning him that. he might find it hard ,to procure employment, but not to backslide if things went against him.
