MOdifies 1858 Finding

MOdifies 1858 Finding
The new rule seeks to modify
a 1858 Supreme Court finding
that arrested persons must be
taken before committing mag
istrates without unnecessary
delay" Courts since then have
considered a delay in the Dis
trict of more than about six
hours unnecessary" Some
judges insist on immediate ar
raignment.
The committee m aiority
argues that the Mallory Rule"
restriction on questioning forces
police to question and judges
to arraign more innocents than
would be falsely charged II Of
ficers had more time to ques-
ton fair probable cause.
Confessions wrung by prom
ises, threats or duress would be
refused, the majority notes, be-
cause courts continue to be
qualified to hold hearings away
from juries to determine If
such threats were used.
Andrew Mallory, the con-
victed rapist in the controver-
sial case admitted raping a
woman in a basement laundry
of her apartment house. He
was arrested between 2 and
2::30 pm. the following day,
held until 4 pm, when he
agreed to a lie detector test.
and questioned shortly after 8
pm. for an hour and a half,
when he admitted his guilt. At
10 pm, he repeated his con-
fession to police. He was ar
raigned the following morning
Bar Opposes Change
The Justice Department and
the District Bar Association
oppose the Mallory modifica-
ton in the crime bill. without
more safeguards for suspects.
Bar Association members re-
VOTED against a decision of
their directors in April by re-
fusing to support either a NAL
lory change or police deten-
tons for questioning.
The insanity rule proposed
by the House committee would
acquit a defendant If his crime
stemmed from a mental disease
or defect if Cd he lacked
capacity to know his conduct
was wrong or 90 he could not
make his conduct conform to
what he believed was right
under law.
Thus, a person would be
freed by reason Of insanity
only If a mental defect kept
him from knowing right and
acting in conformity with that
knowledge. The so-called "soci-
opath" whose abnormal be-
havior inspires repeated GRIM
inal acts could be held re-
sponsible for his conduct under
the new rule.
The House bill also requires
the defendant to prove his in
sanity defense. Now, prosecu-
tors must prove that a defend

Causes of Fish Kills
Studied by Committee

ANNAPOLIS. Aug. IL (AP) f..
"A committee studying mas
sive fish kills in the Chesa-
peake Bay area said today they
are widespread enough ito ap-
pear environmental rather
than resulting from any single
cause"
DR.. L. Eugene Cronin. chair
man Of the committee, said
this is the worst season Of the
year for fish in the bay area.
He said water temperatures
are high, there is a maximum
depletion Of oxygen at a time
they need more. a period OF
poisoning Of microscopic
aquatic life and also when pol
luton would have Its greatest
effect.
Relationship Seen
He said that certainly there
is a suspicion that these en-
vironmental factors are related
TO the huge kills Of fish which
have been seen in both the
lower Potomac River and Ches-
apeake Bay"
The committee also is ex-
ploring the possibility that bac-
terium is causing many OF the
fish deaths.
Edgar H. Hollis, biologist for
the Tidewater Fisheries Com
mission, said that preliminary
reports from q Federal labora-
tory studying fish taken from
the Potomac. Patuxent and Bay
areas showed that the same
bacteria seemed TO be present
In virtually all of them.
Reports Not Conclusive
Mr.. Hollis said. however. the
reports are not yet conclusive.
The massive kills began in the
Bay late last month and some
observers called them the
worst In history.

county inspector. "Once we
have a complaint we check

Other communities have not
been so hesitant to try and
control the size of the pools be-
fore construction. The stand
ards vary from the very strict,
as in Fairfax County, to the
lenient, in Maryland (under a
state ordinance that only went
into effect in May.
The Maryland law requires
that builders allot "a square

peak load of one-fourth the

Falls Church, more than dou-
bles this required size. First, q

grounds, if any, for prosecut-
ing offenders or restricting the
sizes Of pools.

engineer said his biggest head.

Send your soil sample to

THOUGHTS
OF A
LAYMAN
BABY MOSES

Moses was a man of God,
who came into his own at the
age of 80, when most of us
are either retired or buried.
Forty years in the heat of the
Sinai desert he led a million
Hebrews, multitude which
ceased not to complain and
to curse. From babyhood he
had been taught about the
living God by his own mo-
Their. At the court of Pharaoh
he had been versed in mathe-
MATES. astronomy and phil
osophy. 1t was not strange
therefore. that IN the Penta-
touch there are a number of
Egyptian expressions. Moses
has left a mark on every civ
ilized nation. The Decalogue
is the very basis and founda-
ton of our present day laws.
Three distinct groups, the
Jews, the Christians and the
Samaritans use the Penta-
touch as their Scriptures and
guide for better living. 1t is
there that we have the first
concerning Christ,
THE seed of the woman
shall crush the head of the
serpent.

Efforts Urged To Find
Uses for Farm Products

The newly organized USDA Com
mittee on Research and Development
urged that more emphasis be placed
on basic research in an effort to find
new uses for farm products as re-
suit of their initial meeting.
Specific research recommendation
were made in the fields of poultry,
dairy, and animal products; oilseeds;
cereal and forage crops, cotton, wool
and other fibers; fruits and vege-
tables, and new and special plants.
The Committee agreed with Secre-.
tary Freeman's 5-year plan for
strengthening research on the use
of commodities.

million over 10-year period for a
federal-state program of long-range,
comprehensive planning for conserva-

The bill, passed on a voice vote,

1t would establish a Federal Water

of Agriculture; Interior; Army; and
Health, Education and Welfare; and
the chairman of the Federal Power

delegates decided they would institute
action on the project, to sfind out
if we have a state law that means
anything.
The "Plentywood project, a soil
conservation-recreat dam was
built with money that came from
local bond issue and supplemented
with federal funds through the Bu-
reau of Land Management and the
Fish & Game Department.
The contractor, Oil Field Service
Company from North Dakota, bid
the job for $4,000 less than any
Montana contractor. 1t is estimated
$4,000 of that amount was made
up by paying wages at about one
half the prevailing wage in the
area.

through Labor Commissioner Maur-
