These are only two of many similar post-war products now being developed by Indianapolis and Indiana concerns which promise to revolutionize the life of the average family during the coming few years. Many other companies have completed post-war plans which are not nearly so spectacular from the layman’s point of view but which are of great importance in the plans of business leaders to keep the economic structure of the nation afloat

sistance, after the war.

“That's your opinion about those: illegal arrests. If a policeman insists he has a legal case we're going! to see that his case gets into court,” said Mr. Miller. When Mr. Blue pinned the corpo-
ration counsel down to further technicalities about police work, Mr. Miller biurted:

Judge W supported the prosecutor in uniform law en-
court hls program of forcement. “Gentlemen, it's a terrible situation when the police and the prosecutor can't get together on legal procedure in arrests and prosecu-, tion,” Judge Bain said. “The courts are going to be put on the spot all the time if cases come up to my court without the approval of the prosecutor. How in the world are they going to be prosecuted?” Judge Bain added that “it is just! not reasonable that a police officer should determine whether a case should go to trial or not.” Judge John Niblack didn't agree 100 per cent with Mr, gram that the prosecutor have the last say on who should be prosecuted and who should not. “I think the prosecutor should approve affidavits in all cases, then dismiss the case if they are illegal or bad arrests,” said Judge Niblack.
Sheriff With Blue
“There are bound to be some bad arrests under the conditions police have to work and at the same time there'll be plenty of good ones” Sheriff Petit sided 100 per cent with the proseciitor. “My office will co-operate fully with the prosecutor in a uniform
prosecutions,” he said. Judge John McNelis of municipal court 3, agreed that the prosecutor should approve all affidavits before any case gets into court. “That's the prosecutor's duty and no one else's," said the judge. All agreed, even Mi. Miller, tha’ the prosecutor's office should issue all subpenas in all cases and that = the prosecutor should prepare ail aMdavits for issuance of search warrants.

One large company recently asked for WPB approval for the purchase of 10 tons of steel and 500 pounds of copper for post-war experimentation but was turned down.

The shortage of material has forced many companies to restrict the work in their laboratories to the making of wooden models. But satisfactory because the models cannot be tested and delays preparations for the manufacture of the product., The affected businessmen are hopeful that before long war conditions will improve to the point where they can obtain materials for extensive experimentation on postwar products,
