While passing through a ravine they

terrified searchers that the object was

JUDGES IGNORE THE LAW

Governor May Take Drastic Measures
Where Indeterminate statute
Is Violated.

The prison committee of the State Board
of Charities and the Board of Control of
the state prison held joint meeting yes
terday in the Statehouse behind closed
doors. Little is known of what occurred. at
the meeting except what is contained in a
statement made by Governor Mount at the
close Of the meeting. Said he:
1T was found upon investigation that,
since the passage of the indeterminate sem
tence law, there have been eighty-siX COM
initials to the Indiana State Prison contrary
these sentences have been rendered since
the Supreme Court declared the indeter-
inmate sentence law constitutional. An
opinion rendered by the attorney general,
which bars the men from parole who are
not sentenced under the provisions of the
indeterminate sentence law, works a great
hardship to men thus sentenced by some of
the judges of courts of this State

thus sentencing men contrary to the pro-
visions of the indeterminate sentence law,
that hereafter the law should be complied
with, to the end that all men be treated
equally before the law and according to

In discussing his stand in the matter.
Governor Mount said unless the judges who
have transgressed in this respect cease dis
regarding the law, as laid down by the SUI
preme Court, he shall exercise his personal
powers in the matter and send a. formal
request to them to be governed by the law.
1t is his opinion that, as the judges do not
make the laws, but are. rather, the crea-
lures of the law, they should not attempt
to be above the law. AS drastic measure,
in case the judges refuse to conform to the
law and his requests on them, the Governor
may, at his discretion, revoke the commits
