For Grand Jury,
Dailey Assert
' Official Promises ! General Crack-Down
A Search for the answers to “some big questions that have been ignored by law enforcement officials here in the last few years” will be the first major project of the new Grand Jury next January, J This was promised by Prosecu-tor-elget George 8. Dailey, Democrat, in his first statement on law enforcement intentions since he was elected last Tuesday. “What about conditions at the Marion County ""~me at Julietta ™’ Mr. Dailey asked. “What about some of the big name offenders in law violations
ministration?’ “Why are only the ‘little fellows’ prosecuted in most of our law violations, i Too Much Influence |
These were some of the “big| questions” Mr. Dailey said he
to investigate. A “There has heen too much influence by special privilege groups in law enforcement,” he said. "It's time to “enforce the laws on all people alike, rich or poor, powerful or weak.” Mr, Dailey said he will take office Jan. 1 “with no strings tied to my administration.” “I'll. make my appointments without having to consult with anybody,” he said. ‘My deputies will have to be qualified for the Jobs before they can be accepted on the staff.” The Prosecutor-elect said he will use the Grand Jury “more than it has ever been used before” to tighten law enforcement leaks and prevent the filing of criminal charges against defendants without proper evidence. “When a criminal charge is brought against a defendant there's going to be sufficient evidence to convict him,” he said. “We'll try to put a stop to the trials of many cases that have to be thrown out of court because of inadequate preparation of the evidence. When we go to court we're going to get convictions and not a lot of acquittals.” Court Delays Cited Mr. Dailey said law enforcement in this county must be improved if this rapidly growing metropolis is to keep pace with the progress being made in other larger communities, He said he will introduce some reforms in handling police court cases, “There. has been confusion and delays in Municipal Courts for years,” he sald. “We must eliminate this by assignment of police officers for full-time duty in three eight-hour shifts as warrant officers empowered to make out affidavits when prisoners are arrested. i. 28 “By this procedure all cases can be ready tor trial the next session of court d of continuing pr ‘because of a lack of preparation.” The prosecutor-glect said he will seek remodeling of the quarters for the prosecutor's office in the Courthouse. “Office facilities are a disgrace to the county,” he said. “Even with the best staff available, efficlient operation could not be achieved with the present inadequate quarters where deputies have no room to work.”

They're planning| to open their new teen canteen, The Eagles Nest, tomorrow night and they think that Christmas is in November this year. The Santa Clauses in this case are the members of the Fraternal, Order of Eagles, 2511. The men have turned over the lodge hall in the basement of the Foun-| ers for dances every Monday night. They decided to donate the hall when their own youngsters complained of the long trip to the Brookside Park canteen and the overcrowding there. , Mayor Accepts Offer Mayor Al Feeney accepted the offer and the sub debs and isquires in the neighborhood organized the newest of the city's canteens. It will be open to teenagers living on the South Side. After registration at the. first few dances, membership cards will be issued. The hall holds 220 and the canteen organizers hope to build a membership of around 200 teen-agers. Shorty Lewis and his novelty band will play for the first dance tomorrow night from 7:30 to 10:30 o'clock. Talented members of Teen Sensations will present a floor show featuring Dicky Endicott and Stan Feezle. . Mayor Feeney, members of th Board of Park Commissioners, Leroy Keach, president of the Board of Safety, and Police Chief Edward Rouls will be guests of the canteen at tomorrow's opening.

Governor Weighs Problems of Party
* ALBANY, N. Y,; Nov. 6 (UP)— Looking rested and chipper after his second defeat for the Pres-| idency, Gov. Thomas E. Dewey declared today that he had given a great deal of thought to the problems of his party for the next four years. 3 His ideas were definite, he stated, but he would keep them, to himself until after he returns from Arizona, where he and his family will spend a post-election vacation. He recalled that a Phoenix newspaper, during the campaign, carried a headline saying, “Dewey Likes Arizona Sunshine.” “Now, maybe I'll get a chance really to enjoy it,” he said. The 46-year-old governor leaves

There was friction behind the)
scenes during the early part of the campaign a month ago but a truce was reached through Paul McDuff, the compromise county chairman.
" » » NEW POWER challenging Mayor's Feeney's control developed around personal supporters of Prosecutor-elect George 8. Dalley and a few of the other winning county candidates. This faction, which had not been close to the City Hall com-
mand, rallied around William E. Clauer,
former county Democratic chairman; David M. Lewis, former prosecutor, Henry O. Goett, former Superior Court
judge, and Judge Joseph Howard, of Municipal Court.
» ” ~ THE COMPROMISE power behind the scenes in the next two years, party. observers predict, will be Frank McKinney, banker and vice president of the Indianapolis Indians baseball team. Mr. McKinney was the chief moderator im. the compromise maneuver last, $p¥ing when both factions agreed to support Mr, McDuff for the chairmanship and agreed on an organization slate of candidates in the primary. The candidates of that agreement won the election and the party leaders behind them will share in control of the organization with Mr. McKinney re-
