TANNUYS SAYS
DUTY WILLCURE
COURT EVILS
County Prosecutors Should
Know Laws and Execute
Them, He Declares.
FOR SWIFT JUSTICE

United states Judge A. b. Anderson
The state courts do not do their duty
and when they do and send guilty men to
prison the governor turns them out.
GOV. James P. GOodrich-If Judge An
Jerson is correctly quoted he is as
usual playing to the grandstandF AS
usual he went of half cooked. He should
miId his oTn business
f<nited States District Attorney Fred
'VanNuys-County prosecutors should
know the law and prosecute cases WITH
out dilly -dallying-
County Prosecutor CIaris Adams-I as
sumo that neither the judge nor the dis
trict attorney referred to the prosecu-
ton of such offenders in the courts Of
Marion county.
Expeditions trials and a firm and de-
termined execution of the law. both be
fare and after conviction, will remedy
the evils complained Of.
Fred vanNuys United States district
attorney. made this statement today IN
answer TO County Prosecutor Claris Ad-
ans assertion that the state courts are
doing their duty.
Mr.. Adams conscience statement" came
as the aftermath Of Judge A B. Ander-
sons bitter arraignment OF the state
don policy from his federal court bench
Tuesday.
IF county prosecutors did not dilly-
daily along in handling state cases and
would prosecute defendants under exist
ing state laws the federal government
would not be called to spend large sums
OF money in such cases" continued MI
vanNuys-
DECLARES PROSECUTORS
SHOULD KNOW DUTY.
County prosecutors should know the
laws Of the state and should not bring
about the need of handling such cases
as referred to by Judge Anderson before
the federal court
In the very case during which Judge
Anderson made his remarks this week,
the owner OF the car was the son OF one
Of the police commissioners of Muncie-
1T would have been very easy TO have
indicted these boys under the state law
for grand larceny and made the case, but
the owner Of the car insisted on fed
eral prosecution
.sais reasons are so evident they need
not be dilated upon
The one point I want to insist upon
is that in every case in which an auto
mobile is stolen in Indiana and then
- transported to another state the offender
49, be prosecuted under the state law for
grand larceny
"Thefts Of freight and express from
railroad cars, stations and depots can be
prosecuted under the state statutes de-
fnfng petit and grand larceny"
Cant MEAN ME-"
ADAMS ASSERTS.
Adams. in a statement following up
the original criticism of county courts
made BY District Attorney Van
Nuys, In which the latter challenged
Goodrich's record, asserts that be does
not believe Judge Anderson and Van
Nuys referred TO the local county courts
In his arraignment Judge Anderson
said:
THE state courts will not do their
duty. When man Is convicted
either the governor, the parole board
or somebody, I don't know who. turns
them out
And it's about time the people Of
Indiana knew it"
Thus Mr. Adams conscience must have
told N to speak.

OF Fl. Wayne delivered the keynote
speech on state issues at the democratic

He characterized Goodrichism as a dis

republicanism are inseparable in In

He told of the administrations of J.
Frank Hanly and James 2. Goodrich
and contrasted them with the admins
trations Of Thomas r. Marshall and
Samuel NJ Ralston.
"Goodrichism and republican1sm in In
diana Is one and the same thing, and in
discussing one we discuss the other.

Speaking at Vincennes. the governor
said: We have no apologies to make.
I'VE have kept the faith We go be
