Bail Reduced
For Appeal in
Auto Theft

The United States Court Of
Appeals has reduced the bail
for q man convicted of car
theft after he said that al
though INDECENT. he had suffi-
cient ties to the community to
Justify cutting his $4,000 bail
to $1,000.
However, the plaintiff, Earl
r. Cephus, lost In his bid
to be released without bail.
Cephus claimed that he could
obtain a Job, that his wife and
family lived here. that he had
no previous record for crimes
Of violence. and that his free
dom would not endanger the
community.
A new bail bond plan, which
was approved by the judicial
conference last month, would
free accused felons without bail
or on O low bail when their
character and communities ties
reasonably assure that they
would not flee the Jurisdiction.
It was designed to provide
needy prisoners with an OPP
portunity, to obtain temporary
freedom pending disposition Of
their cases.
Cephus was asking for q re-
duction In his appeal bond
which Is set to free a defendant
from his conviction until his
appeal is decided. Although
there is q legal presumption Of
innocence before trial. there is
an inference Of guilt after con-
viction.
However. q three Judge
panel Of the Court of Appeals
lowered Cephus' bond which
was set by Judge Henry
Schweinhaut Of the United
States District Court. The dis
trict judge is given the discre-
ton to set whatever bail he
thinks is proper.
The unsigned order. handed
down by Circuit Judges John
A. Danaher, j. Sicily Wright,
and Charles Fahy, indicated
that the three judges believed
Judge Schweinhaut had abused
his discretion In setting the
$4,000 appeal bond.

I'VE have to monitor at least

The District has separate
radio receivers for the different

have to listen to all Of them.
Costs Estimated
If one police department is

sometimes cannot hear an
emergency call coming in from
q police department In q near

The police chiefs committee
has estimated that 1t would

David Gratz, chief Of the

department, is working with
the fire chiefs Of the region for
their common frequency.
Under existing conditions, If
q county has q large brush fire
and calls for help from other
jurisdictions, radio communi-
cations with home stations be-
come cumbersome. Radio calls
have to be passed through two
