| Des Moines, Dec. 22.-In his annual
report TO the governor Attorney Gen
eral Byers makes some sweeping rec
concentrations regarding law enforce
1 ment. His suggestions comprise a
carefully digested plan for the reorgan-
| i:iation of the law enforcement agencies
of the state and the cooperation of
state, county and purely local executive
officers in this branch of the govern
ment.
General Byers reviews the work of
the office of the attorney general dur
ing the past two}years in the matter
OF law enforcement. giving a careful
resume of the conditions he met and
1.-the net results of the efforts of his
office. and explains the difficulties
which beset and out of which grew
the recommendations that he has sug-
gested to the governor for transmits
| sion to the legislature.
After reviewing the general work of
the office and the law suits which it
began during the term. the attorney
general devotes his report to the dis
cussion of law enforcement and the
means to attain it, closing with these
recommendations:
First. Make it possible for the gov-
ernor TO take care that the laws are
faithfully executed" by giving him the
power, upon proper complaint. to re-
move peace officers, mayors and prose-
cutting attorneys.
Second. a complete reorganization
of the attorney generals department
along substantially the same lines as
the department of justice in the ma
tioHal government is organized; estab-
fishing closer relation between the
county attorney and the attorney gen
eral; requiring the county attorney to
report to the attorney general prompt
|ly all matters Of Importance pending
in his office in which the state is
interested, and giving to the attorney
general power ito take charge, either
himself or by his assistants appointed
by him for the purpose, of any case
pending in the district court in which
LIE Sldle Is luleIeSleu ana 10 appear
before the grand jury in any county in
any matter pending before that body of
sufficient Importance to justify, in his
judgment such appearance.
Third. Enlarging the powers and
duties of oil and food inspectors, re-
quirfng them to assist prosecuting att
torneys and the attorney general in
securing evidence in all prosecutions
in which the state is interested, wheth-
er 1t be a violation of the criminal
laws of the state, or for the collection
of fees and fines due the state.
Fourth. Give the county attorney
authority to follow appeals to the SUI
preme court when requested by the
attorney general, with ample provision
for his compensation and expenses
Fifth. Give to the attorney generals
department sufficient force to properly
the business of the office. with
salaries high enough to secure the best
possible service.
Sixth A general revision of the
laws governing criminal practice and
procedure.

SCATH|NC REBUkE
FOR YOUNG MAN
Who Exhibited Obscene
Pictures At His
Theatre.

Little Rock. July Is. One OF
the ost scathing denunciations
ever given a prisoner in a local
court was delivered yesterday al
ternoon by Gus Fulk, who repre-
scented the State in the trial of
w. Y. Hettiger, charged with
exhibiting obscene pictures. Het-
tiger is a young white man and
operates a moving picture show
with exclusive negro patronage,
on Ninth and Arch streets. In
front of his plac about week
ago he had a large poster Show
ing a negro buck cake walking
with a white woman and the
head of the woman cOyly nestled
on the shoulder of the negro.
Hettiger is alleged to have made
capital out of the poster by say
ing much more could be seen on
the inside, and thus induced ne
groes to flock in by the hundred.
White people reported the mat
ter to police and the City Attor-
ney went to the place and order
ed it torn down. Hettiger pro-
tested and was arrested, being
tried in the court of Justice Ell.
Sanders yesterday and fined
$1,000 and costs. Hettiger was
his own attordey and at the an
nouncement of the fine his jaw
dropped, but he prayed an ap-
peal to the circuit court. Justice
Sanders said the bond would be
$1,000 and Hettiger went out
with a deputy constable to make
the bond but found no one will
ing to vouch for him to that
amount. Attorney Fulk in his
speech said the picture was La
BILE to arouse the passions of the
negroes and cause serious trouble
and that a man of Hettiger's
calibre would sacrifice anything
for money. Hettiger took Of
fence at the remarks of the at
torney; who told him they were
make in earnest and would be
repeated out Of court if Hettger
desired. Justice Sanders had
the poster in court and Hettiger
contended that the woman was a
negro. Justice Sanders said he
had been associated with the ne
groes too long to be fooled on
facial expressions Of the race
and he could give expert testi-
mony that the woman was IN
tended for white after which he
assessed the fne. Should Hetti-
ger have TO serve out the fine, it
would keen Inn on The county
