CHICAGO, July 4.-Three Judges
aof the Criminal Court, charged with
being lax in their conduct of the
bench by Frank j. Loesch, president
of the Chicago Crime commission,
were indicated in a report returned
by court of inquiry.
LoeSch charged that Criminal
Court Judges Emanuel Eller, Stanley
Klarkowskim, and Otto Kerner had
been placed on the benches over the
protest of the Chicago Bar Associa-
ton, that it was politics in full
swing" which placed them, and that
the three had no regard for the law
which they have sworn to uphold"
A committee of six judges in
vestigated the charges and its report
yesterday indicated the three.
The report of the committee con-
tanned an accusation that the
trouble, if any, lies at the States at
torney's Office.
