George Howard Naacp attorney
from Pine Bluff, said Monday
that the Arkansas Bar Rules
committee, not Attorney General
Bruce Bennett, was the proper
party to investigate a complaint
that the NAACP Legal Defense
and Education Fund was ille-
gally practicing law in Arkansas.
Howard argued this point in a
hearing before Pulaski Circuit
Judge Guy Amsler on a suit
which Bennett filed against the
Fund in December to stop it from
operating in the state.
The hearing was on Towards
demurrer to the suit.
Howard cited several state laws
pertaining to the attorney gen.
erals authority. Howard said
that under the state constitution
the attorney generals duties were
statutory and there was no statute
allowing him to bring such a
suit.
He said other laws provided
that any infractions in legal prac-

court who would turn them over
to the Bar Rules committee for
investigation.
Howard argued that legislation
had removed the attorney gem
erals common law duties. Ben
nett filed the suit under his COM
mon law powers.
Judge Amsler interrupted the
brief hearing to say that he
thought he and Circuit Judge J..
Mitchell Cockrill should hear the
arguments at the same time. Ben
nett has suit pending against the
Fund in Judge Cockrill's court.
In the case before Judge Cock
rill, Bennett sued for $4,000 al
legged penalty which he said the
Fund owed the state for failing
to file articles of incorporation.
Judge Amsler agreed to sit with
Judge Cockrill March 81 to hear
a similar demurrer scheduled in
the other court in the $4,000 suit.

especially when you are ham

when you bring in a suspect,
you've got to drop everything
and devote your full time and
