A PUBLIC DEFENDER

Duluth Herald: There is in every
bai!wick public prosecutor. Why not
public defender?
Los Angeles county is adopting it's
new charter provided for such all Of
fetal, the first on record in this coun-
try. The section of the county char
ter--California provides home rule for
counties as well as cities-providing
THIS interesting innovation is as fol
lrws:
Upon request by the defendant
or upon order Of the court, the
public defender, shall Defend with
out expense to them, all persons
who are not financially able to en-
r!oy counsel and who are charged
in the superior court, with the
commission of any contempt, mis-
Gcmeanor, felony or other offense,
end he shall prosecute all appeals
to higher court or courts of any
person who has been convicted up
on any such charge, where, in his
opinion, such appeal will, or might
reasonably be expected to, result
in reversal or modification of the
Judgment of conviction. He shall
also, upon request, prosecute ac-
items for the collection of wages
and all other demands of persons
who are valid and enforceable
in the courts He shall also, upon
request, defend such persons in ak
civil litigation in which, in his
Judgment, they are being perse-
cuted or unjustIy harassed.
California and Los Angeles county
are to be congratulated upon this wise
and humane provision.
Justice should be free, but it isn't.
Public prosecutors should be as much
concerned in establishing the inno-
cence of an accused person as they
are to establish guilt; but they are not.
They are more concerned, as rule, in
making a record for themselves than in
seeing that absolute justice prevails.
The law in this state makes pro-
vision for the defense of INDECENT per-
SONS accused Of crime. The court
appoints an attorney, and the state
pays the bill. But too often the at
tcrneys are young and inexperienced,
or men who have lost their grip; and
al the best there is no chance for APP
peals such as the California system pro
vides, and there is no provision at all
for poor people without costs.
Says the Los Angeles Tribune: 1T
cannot be doubted that the establish
ment of this office can be made to
work great good in behalf Of men and
women whose lack Of means precludes
them from protecting themselves
against oppression, asserting their
+; ghts or defending their innocence.
The office of public defender easily
may become the most important on
the whole roster of county officials.
It should be filled by a thoroughly
trained lawyer, who should also be
man of unflinching courage and in
corruptible integrity"
The experiment is altogether adj
m;rable, and we shall hope well for
it and that it may become perma-
nent fixture not ony~ in Los Angeles
county BUT IN EVERY COUNTY IN
0t1E JYNTTEn STATES
