Action On Mayors
Audit Report Now

Madison County's Grand Jury
continued their examination of wit
nesses on Tuesday morning in the
cases to be heard. Approximately
twenty-five witnesses had been ex-
amined by noon Tuesday. The jury
had given no indication of the ac-
tion they would take following the
charge to them given by the Com
mon Pleas Judge.
AS the September term of the
Grand Jury met Monday, their at
tention was directed by Common
Pleas Judge Gerald A. Baynes to
fiscal affairs of the City of Lon
don and the operation of the Ma
yor's Court. in particular"
In his charge to the jury, Judge
Baynes explained that there are
four ways by which matters may
come to the attention of the jur-
ors; the ordinary way, in being
bound over; and three extraordi-
nary ways, by the court calling
their attention to situation, or by
the, prosecuting attorney, or by a
member of the jury itself. Judge
Baynes chose the first of these
ways to direct the attention to the
Mayors situation.
The judge pointed out that the
jurors could examine the recent
state auditors report for London,
and if they decide that things con-
tanned in such report, violate any
criminal statute, they could indict.
Or, they could find that the sys-
TEN of the mayors court was out
moded in operation and recomm-
end change, or they could find
that no indictment was indicated.
The Judge further said, 1T is
sometimes important to govern
mental activities that the public
be advised as to the situations,
matters and things that have been
inquired into SO that innuendo,
gossip and other derogatory rum
ors, may, in so far as possible, be
laid to rest"
The court convened at 10:40
am. Monday, some delay being
caused by late selections to the
Grand Jury. Mr.. H. w. Rogers
was appointed juror foreman by
the court. Other members of the
Grand Jury are: Mrs. Kenneth
May Mckinley, Herman Howard,
Richard E. Hume, Doris Tomlin-
son, Kenneth Hamilton. Mrs. Jose
ph Gallagher, Mrs. Gladys Keye,
G.. w. Putnam Jr., c. F. Cecil, Mrs.
Leon King, Charles P. Hay, Mrs.
Marie Corbitt, Francis Baker, and
Warner Cartmille.
Seven additional cases were pre-
sented to the court, making the
total number of cases found over
from other courts ~.
Prosecuting Attorney Forrest E.
Sidener said that the session
would probably last three days.

There were probably just as
many reckless drivers in the
horse and buggy days as there

that horses had more sense

Children start out by loving

PoLLYTicks
The reason that the govern
