RULES PRISON LAW INVALID Wardens Ordered To Disregard Law To Adjust Sentences Indianapolis, Oct. 7 — (U.R) — . State penal institution officials today received orders from Gov. M. Clifford Townsend to disregard a 1937 state law empowering wardens to adjust faulty sentences being served by prisoners. The governor's action followed receipt of an opinion from the 1 attorney-general's office, setting out that the 1937 law which auth-j orized wardens of state penal in-1 stitutions to correct any errors made in penalties by trial judges, | is unconstitutional. “The legislature had no author-! ity to delegate judicial powers to a warden," Townsend was advised in tit* opinion. The order will affect approximately 300 prisoners in the state I prison at Michigan City and the i state reformatory at Pendleton. Approximately 65 adjustments have been made, Townsend said. ; In some cases sentences were re- ' iluced, while in others they were I lengthened. “1 have instructed the wardens I of the state prison and reformatory i not to act on any more petitions | seeking to adjust sentences which seem to lie in conflict with the law." the governor said "I have been advised that the law giving wardens power to ad just sentences is unconstitutional , because the legislature had no authority to deelgate judicial powers to a warden.” "However, this is a question which the courts ultimately will have to decide." The mixup in the sentencing of determinate and indeterminate ; occurred through misinterpretation sentences by trial judges. in many cases where determinate sentences should have been given, the judges have given indetermini ate sentences and vice versa. _ o YANKEES POUND I iCONTINTIEbJi’KOM PAGE ONE) thy.
