DROPS S SUT ON PANNSHOP LAW

Baltzell Upholds Plaintiff’s Motion to Dismiss Fin‘gerprint Case.

Federal Judge Robert C. Baltzeil today sustained a motion to dismiss a suit attacking the Indianapolis ordinance regulating pawnbrokers. The motion was filed by T. Ernest Maholm, attorney who brought the original action for Oscar Alpert, 218 Indiana Ave. a pawnbroker. Defendants were the City, Mayor Reginald H. . Sullivan and Police Chief Michael F. Morrissey. The suit sought an injunction

* against enforcement of the ordi-

nance which requires pawnshops to obtain fingerprints and signatures of persons pawning merchandise. Neither Mr. Maholm nor Mr. Alpert gave any reason for the motion. However, the Indiana Supreme Court upheld the ordinance Nov. 28. The action had charged that fingerprint requirements were a violation of personal rights under the Constitution. The Supreme Court said that “experience has demonstrated that handwriting may be

- subject to forgery but fingerprints

cannot.”
