As Senator Minton went into the Senate library near the stairs, he noticed that the steel firedoors were open. Just at that moment a workman emerged, closing and locking them. Some time later the Senator came out of the library and had started for his office when he heard a woman screaming and pounding on the doors. She had slipped up the stairs to the dome on her sightseeing tour of the building and found the doors locked on her way back down. So Sir Minton dispatched a Senate page over to the Capitol police headquarters for the keys which opened the lock and freed the maiden. She was young and pretty, as the story books require, but the chivalrous Senator failed to get her name and address.

STATEBAR ASKS

HIGH COURT TO REGULATE CODES

Proposes Easing of Sentences in Auto Killings to Get More Convictions.

The State Bar Association today asked the Indiana Supreme Court to promulgate rules for integration and government of the profession.

This action, which would require all attorneys to become members of the Association, was decided upon at that organization’s annual winter meeting in the Claypool Hotel Saturday. Two proposed changes in the criminal code were approved by the Association and are expected to be presented to the 1939 Legislature. One would allow a sentence of not more than one year to which could be added a $500 fine for persons convicted of involuntary manslaughter resulting from automobile accidents. The present involuntary manslaughter sentence of one to 10 years could be used in other cases. Association members recommended adoption of the lesser sentence for motorists “because of the unwillingness of juries to convict in such cases because of the long sentence.” Repeal of the indeterminate sentence law also was urged by Association members who claimed this statute was confusing and unnecessary. Appointment of a committee of five to co-operate with the judicial council on nonpartisan selection of Judges and their tenure also was authorized. A committee also was to be selected to work with the American Bar Association in its efforts to simplify hearing procedure before various Federal administrative boards. It was suggested that these boards set up hearing tribunals in various states or districts. Complainants then would be saved the cost of appearing in Washington to present their cases, it was said.
