Grand Jurors
Indict Four;
Suggest Repair
Indictments Are Smallest
Number In Years; Twenty
Three InterrOgated

The Garrett County Grand Jury,
in session only two days, returned
the smallest number Of indictments
in many years, but was strong on
recommendations.
The jurors had before them %
witnesses and returned only four
indictments, one for bastardy, and
three for false pretense. One of
the indictments for false pretense
is against a person now serving in
an Indiana prison, and the bastardy
Indictment is against an out of
state person, which leaves only
two criminal cases to come before
the Court when the trials get
underway on March %, according
to States Attorney ", Dwight
Slower.
Makes Many Recommendations
The grand jurors questioned the
extent of recognition given recon-
mendations in former grand jury
reports and suggested the future
grand juries, after being charged,
review the report Of its predecessor
for the purpose of cvaluating such
recommendations as may have been
made and to check ON the matter
Of compliance.
A recommendation that the Gar
rctt County legislators at Annapo-
lis take immediate action ON Sen
ate Bill 1873, introduced by Senator
Fraley, which would create new
Juvenile court here, was made.
Under the present system juveniles
often are brought into Circuit
Court and are tried just like adults.
The bill would change that pro-
cedue giving the circuit Judges
Jurisdiction, or trial magistrates
in minor cases.
States Attorney Stover also said
the Grand Jury advocated that
Sheriff Paul W. Fisher be paid
S1.25 per day for prisoners con-
fined in the County Jail instead of
the present rate of so cents per
day. The jury felt that some action
should be taken Immediately by
the Legislature.
