Strengthening Os State Laws Urged

INDIANAPOLIS lUPI) — Laws, not men, are responsible for a breakdown of law enforcement in Indiana, seconding to prosecutors representing the state s largest counties. * 1 Marion County Prosecutor Phillip Bayt and Lake County Prosecutor Floyd Vance agreed that any widespread attempt to crack down on law violators would have to begin in the Indiana Legislature where laws are made. The two men testified Wednesday before the Law Enforcement Committee of the Legislative Advisory Commission, headed by State Sen. David Rogers of Bloomington. The committee was set up to study an alleged breakdown <> f law enforcemnet in Indiana. Bayt told the committee “much good” will be accomplished by a strengthening of the state exvise police force. He also advocated a crackdown on the liquor licenses of tavern owners who cater to prostitutes and allow gambling to take place in their establishments. Bayt, a former Indianapolis mayor, also called for: —A “clarification”' of laws cov- , ering pinball machines and lotteries. I —A law requiring the licensing of bail bondsmen so they come I under control of the state. —A law governing the practices of surety companies to insure their ability to pay forfeited bonds. Asks Specific Sentences —The end of inderteminate prison sentences in favor of spicific terms instead of indeterminate sentences. —Elimination of the automatic change of judge, a problem particularly prevalent in Indianapolis. Bayt said many judges are attorneys who have lucrative law practices and they cause lengthy delays in the trial of some cases to take care of private business. He said the change of judge should be to a full-time municl-

pal judge or eke the person requesting the change should be required to “produce proof of bias.” Vance indicated that the chief problems in Lake County were gambling and prostitution. He advocated several changes in present Indiana laws governing prostitution and solicitation for a prostitute. "I would like to see a law making solicitation by a prostitute on the streets .a crime,” he said. "I also would like to see extensive changes in laws covering solicitation by persons working for prostitutes." “I want the solicitation law extended to make it an offense to accept or receive money from a prostitute or from the person directed to her,” Vance told the committee. Would Outlaw Pinballs He also came int in favor of a law making possession of pinball machines as illegal as possession of slot machines; A change in the present 2-21 year sentence for rape because “the penalty for forcible rape should be more severe; and creation of an intermediate penal institution to take care of first offenders. Arnold H. Coons, city editor of the Gary Post-Tribune, and Bill I Wildback, a reporter for the InI dianapolls News, also testified. Coon favored a mandatory jail sentence for a second gambling conviction. He also proposed a remedy for “a sour apple in the prosecutor’s office.” Coons advocated that the Indiana attorney general be given the power to investigate local situations wher" the prosecutor refuses to take proper action. He also recommended that the Indiana Supreme Court be given The power to appoint a special prosecutor and to call a grand jury. Wildhack recommended that the child curfew law now in effect in Indianapolis be extended to include all of Marion County, including all drive-in theaters and restaurants outside the city limits.

Adenauer And Macmillan Are In Agreement LONDON <UPl>—West German Chancellor Konrad Adenauer said today he and Prime Minister Harold Macmillan reached agreement on summit policy, disarmament and European trade in three days of cold war talks hereAdenauer told a news conference at the end of his talks that he and Macmillan reached "general agreement" on summit policy and “complete agreement" on the political principles of disarmament. They also agreed he said, that the present economic divisions in Europe .must "in no economic circumstances” be allowed to lead ♦o a trade w’ 1- “which would be in sharp conflict with everything mat nas been done in recent years for the unification of a free western Europe and a free world.” SUII Seek Details The chancellor wound up three days of pre-summit talks with a two-hour discussion with Macmillan this morning at Chequers, the prime minister’s official country residence. He appeared before a news conference just before leaving by plane to return to Germany. On the question of summit policy, he said, “We reached a general agreement of views.” "Jt now will be the task of the various discussions scheduled in December to reach a full agreement in the western camp on details which we did not have time to take up here,” he said. Adenaeur said he and Macmillan agreed on a possible threepoint summit agenda consisting of disarmament, German unity — including the Berlin question — and East-V est relations. But aside from any concrete decisions reached at the conference table, the chief achievement of the 83-year-old chancellor’s visit was considered to be the end of cool relations between the two countries. Overcame Cool Reception Despite the reserved reception Adenauer was given by Britons on his arrival Tuesday, the chancellor and the other members of hte German delegation appeared well satisfied with the British attitude. This feeling contrasted with that after, last year’s visit of President Theodor Heuss. He was given a similarly restrained reception, but the German press interpreted it as hostile, and bitter editorials resulted. That bitterness was increased j by Anglo-German quarrels over European trading alliances and mutual suspicions on plans for j dealing with the Russians. But the talks cleared up the diplomatic problems and. although they aoived trade, their atmosphere prepared the way for an understanding in that area.
