obtain his liberty on bail. = A circuit court decision yesterday | , by Judge pro tem William Hinkle * that 16-year-old Louis J. Fink Jr. might be freed on $5000 bail drew i differing beliefs from juvenile court A and legal authorities. / It was thought probable that ll County Attorney Victor Jose Jr. i might appeal the decision to the i Indiana supreme court, i “As I see the law, a child is al i ways in custody,” Mr. Jose declared. i “A juvenile in the legal sense has no liberty. He is either in the custody of his parents or the state.
Question of Custody?
#This suit (habeus corpus) was a question of custody, in my opinion, not one of obtaining liberty for the Fink boy.” The youth was sent to the juve- ; nile detention home Sept. 20, juvenile records show, after he was charged with being a delinquent. Young Fink is alleged to have been driver of an automobile that struck and fatally injured an elderly filling station attendant Sept. 6. The accident occurred in the 5400 4 block of N. Keystone ave. The body of George Entwistle was found several hours after the Fink boy reported to police his automobile had been in .an accident. A eoroner’s jury returned a verdict of death by reckless homicide.
15 at Time of Tragedy. t
The boy, son of Mr. and Mrs. Louis J. Fink, 5145 N, Tllinois st., could not be waived to criminal “court by Juvenile Court, Judge Mark [« W. Rhoads, according to law. When the tragedy occurred, young Fink lacked four days of being 16—age at which a youth may be waived. Judge Lloyd D. Claycombe, in whose court the case was heard, said today he couldn't “see that it upsets the existing juvenile court law.” An opinion that the decision was far-reaching in its implications was being held by some persons. Judge Pro Tem Hinkle ruled that anyone is entitled to liberty on bail under his constitutional rights, regardless of age. Mr. Hinkle is chief clerk in Judge Claycombe’s court. The latter said he was “out of Jown when this case was heard.”
Bond Posted
The juvenile court law, asserted Mr. Jose, provides that a petition may be filed by a child’s parents, asking custody. This was not done by the Fink boy's parents, the county attorney said. Instead, liberty for the boy was requested in the circuit court suit. The boy's father testified yesterday that he and his wife had not agreed to leave their son at the juvenile detention home. “We didn't have any choice,” he told Mr. Jose, Bond for the boy was provided by Mr. jand Mrs. i Ralph C. Hardisty, 5440 N. Delai ware st. Mr. Hardisty, treasurer of the Commonwealth Loan Co, is A Mr. Fink’s employer. The latter is a supervisor with the firm. May Go to High Court’ E. F. New, attorney for the boy, said he had been prepared to go before a federal district court in | an attempt to obtain his release. 0 “We didn’t know when the boy would be released from the juvenile i detention home,” he added. i Following the circuit court action, Juvenile Court Referee Florence Thacker Bradley arraigned young Fink and remanded him to custody of the sheriff, pending bail ~~ This was provided immediately by | the Hardistys.

“I believe it's the politicians,” he declared. He said “some persons” have been “passing along” word that the joints would be allowed to operate gaming enterprises without interference. “I want these people to know 1 take orders from the mayor. He has given no open up order and I'm sure he won't,” the chief asserted. : “I have no such thing as the ‘go sign’ in my book. The only thing I have in my book is law enforcement. Then when these spurious reports are carried to gamblers, I'm put to the trouble of closing them up again. ” ‘To Be No Let-Up’ Other provisions in Chief MecMurtry’s order: “There is to be no let-up on strict enforcement of the gambling laws. Notify all your men to visit all known or suspected gambling houses, taverns, cigar stores, pool rooms, restaurants or drug stores in their respective districts.” ' He warned his men to “be on the lookout” for any violations. “Any officer who knows of any gambling or suspected gambling in his district, and allows it to continue without interference, will be subject to strict disciplinary
action.”
