ELP PLEDGED BY MORRISEY IN VICE DRIVE

Police Chief, Lewis Declare They Will Co-operate ~ With Sheriff.

(Editorial, Page 12)

Co-operation with Sheriff Feeney in enforcement of Indiana’s old “padlock law” on owners of buildings where law violations are found, was promised today by Chief Morrissey and Prosecutor David M.

Lewis. Chief Morrissey said, however, that getting sufficient evidence to invoke the padlock law is difficult in most cases. “Under the law, a building first has to be declared a public nuisance by testimony of neighbors living in the vicinity of the place and many of the houses are in neighborhoods where it would be difficult to get witnesses,” Chief Morrissey said. Sheriff Feeney yesterday announced he will invoke the law against owners of buildings housing vice resorts or places where liquor is sold illegally.

“Bringing High Rents”

He said his campaign against building owners was prompted by an investigation that showed many such houses, normally worth about $15 a month .rent, were bringing their owners as much as $100 a month. “If they're not closed up I'll put padlocks on the doors of the building for an indefinite period,” Sheriff Feeney said. Prosecutor Lewis said he will ask Sheriff Feeney to present evidence to the Grand Jury on old buildings bringing ‘such high rents.” Chief Morrissey said he will instruct his officers to turn over to the Prosecutor any evidence they find on buildings that might be termed a public nuisance. “Padlock action would have to be started by the Prosecutor in a civil proceeding,” Chief Morrissey said.

SEEKS HOMES FOR UNDERPRIVILEGED

Bradshaw to Confer Today With Welfare Division.

Judge Wilfred Bradshaw, of Juvenile Court, was to confer with

.County Welfare Department officials today regarding foster homes for underprivileged boys involved in Juvenile Court cases. Judge Bradshaw said a serious problem has developed as a result of overcrowded conditions at the Indiana Boys’ School and other similar institutions. “We will have to find some place for boys in homes, if we can, because much of the time the State Boys’ School can’t take them due to lack of facilities,” he said. The County Welfare Department has a special fund in the Child Assistance Division for supporting orphaned or underprivileged children in private homes. “Some plan may be worked out at our conference today,” Judge Bradshaw said,
