public charges, and that the lawyers
adopt code that they will not neglect
their duties In obtaining justice be-
cause Of the inability Of those seeking
counsel to pay the price-in other
words to get to the law is a luxury only
for a privileged class.
The committee held hearings In
Washington In March and another So
ries in Chicago In April. 1t went to
the Illinois state prison at Joliet, where
prisoners were interviewed. Hearings
are to be continued in New York city.
Among those who have appeared to
give testimony, In addition to the pris-
oners, have been judges of criminal
courts, superintendent Of refOrmato-
ries, criminologists, lawyers and war
dens.
1t is the opinion OF the committee
that while the war was In a large part
responsible for the crime wave there
are other reasons for a growing con-
tempt for the law, chief of which is
lax enforcement and the long route the
criminal has to travel from the time
Of committing crime until he is pun
ished.
In the opinion of lawyers studying
the situation, one of the chief factors
responsible for the crime wave has
been unemployment. 1t is for this rea-
son the assertion is made that in all
probability the peak Of the crime wave
has passed.
The committee believes vigorous re-
forms are required " there is to be
a restoration Of respect for the law.
