CRIME IN INDIANAPOLIS Paid Advertisement by Charlee Koehrlng The Indianapolis Star of August Bth has a great deal to say in an editorial; “Law. not terror, must prevail,’ regarding the violence and terrorism in other cities, but apparently Is wholly unconsciousness that here in Indianapolis the Police ment has shown greater disregard for the letter and spirit of tne law and for the rights of citizens, and by the vicious and malicious arrest of thousands of wholly innocent persons has dono more harm to society than any of the criminal agencies about, which the Star so justifiably complains. The Chief of Folice reports that for the year 1926, 14,807 “not guilty” arrests, as against 7,518 “guilty” and when one considers the excessive zeal displayed by the police to effect arrests, and the eagerness of the prosecutors to obtain convictions, probably Induced by the $25.00 prosecutors fee, which produces fortunes each year for the prosecutors. Is It not altogether reasonable to suppose that many of those convicted may not be guilty, since many of them arc unable to pay a lawyer to defend them? Is It possible that this state of affairs exists In any other place in the country? Os co use it is a crime to arrest an linocent person, to subject him to the humiliation of taking him to jail, to besmirch his reputation for life, to cause anxiety and heartaches to his wife and family, to brand him as a likely victim for further arrests on “vag” charges, and to make it difficult If not Impossible for him to find future employment. The Indianapolis Post of Aug. 8 reports 239 cases as the result of the last week-end police activities. Every thinking person knows at once it was wholly impossible for the police to find 239 actual enses of law violations within that time. If the usual proportion exists, not over eighty of these were guilty, hut when the chief urges extra efforts, as he probably did on this occasion, the proportion of “not guilty” is larger. f) Is It likely that in any other city so many homicides are committed by the police, and no further attention given to the matter except such reports as the chief decides to make, as in the cas<‘ of the man recently killed by a police officer, whose only offepse consisted in riding in an auto alleged to be driven at an unlawful rate of speed. The police officer testified the killing accidental, but the chief reports that the killing was justifiable. In another case an officer repeatedly shot at a man alleged to he driving at an unlawful rate of speed. If the man had been killed, the only reason for the killing would have been that he was driving at an unlawful rate of speed. It is doubtful whether either of these cases will be presented to the grand jury, as cases of this kind should be. It will be remembered also, In this connection, that charges made by police officers in two cases out of three arc usually found “not guilty.” Mayor Duvall, of course, knows all these facts, and only a word from him could change all this. The Board of Public Safety, If they have any voice in the matter, permit and approve of these crimes. So it must be considered as the settled policy of this administration; and I feel justified in saying that the Indianapolis Police Department under such a policy of trampling upon the rights of the citizens is a matter of much greater concern to society and Is in more urgent need of the public spirited attention and consideration of society and the Star, than the “violence and terrorism in other cities,” when we are confronted with a powerful agency exactly fitting these terms, so close at home. So, I say with the Star, “law, not terror, must prevail."
