The District Attorney’s office to be revamped and instead of THREE DISTRICT ATTORNEYS have only ONE
honest, capable man doing the District Attorney’s work only.
One who will forget his own personal political ambition and
be just as interested in protecting the innocent as he is in
convicting the guilty. This has been recommended by several.Grand Juries in the past, but has never been acted upon.

Statistics Aren’t The Answer
To paraphrase the old saying that patriotism is the
last resort of fools, it sometimes seems that statistics are the
last resort of bureaucrats. :
According to the Federal Bureau of Investigation, California’s major crime rate, which imcreased 9 per cent last
year, is the highest in the Nation.‘ But the State Attorney
General’s office disputes this, setting the increase at only
3 percent. Says Attorney General Stanley Mosk:
“Law enforcement agencies in California are doing a
better job of recordilng and reporting. crime than is done
anywhere else in the country.’’
Also, it seems, the FBI lists thefts over $50 as major
crimes, while in California thefts of less than $200 are considered misdemeanors. And the FBI includes crimes committed by youths under 18 in its statistics, whereas Cali‘fornia does not. : ,
' Doubtless these differences in pi heme Pagllop agra
statistics are of some importance, although the person who
‘loses $199 to a thief is likely to be just as disturbed about it
as the person who loses $200, and the victim of a 17-yearold murderer is just as dead as one killed by an 18-year-old.
Of more importance is the ample evidence—New York
is only the most glaring example—that crime prevention all
over the-country, ,for a variety of reasons, has been steadily
deteriorating for some years, aid that our large cities are
not nearly as safe to live in as they were within’ the memory
of even young adults. ;
The answers to the crime problem, it goes without saying, are complex and exceedingly difficult. To find them will
require the best efforts not just of people in law enforce: '
ment, fields but of good Americans in every walk of life.
It is very unlikely they will be found by juggling statistics.
