MM ERVIN
Washington—Last week 1 in
r traduced a bill (S. 3411) to make
voluntary admissions and con
i sessions admissible in criminal
, proceedings and prosecutions in
the courts of the United States
and the District of Columbia.
I Voluntary Confessions Until
■ the decision of the United States
■ Supteme Court in the Mallory
. case and its predecessor, the
McNabb case, it was universally
E recognized, both in the Federal
r cout is and in the State courts
’ of this nation that the best evi
: dtnee of guilt was the voluntary
’ confess»on of the accused.
In -the Mallory and McNabb
E cases the Supreme Court abolisn
» ed this wise and salutary rule
■ of evidence, so far as the Fed
• eral courts were concerned.
This was done by subverting a
: statute relating to the duty of
an arresting officer into a rule
of evidence in violation of the
intent of Congess. As a result
of the deesiion. many persons of
• undoubted guilt have been set
free. Justice is sidetracked, and
the felon is preying upon socie
ty as law enforcement officials
1 arc severely handicapped.
Ervin Bill —My bill, aimed at
1 a simple solution to the prob
: lent, is predicated on the theory
that enough has been done for
those who murder and rape and
rob, and that it is time to do
something for those who do not
wish to be murdered or raped or
robbed. I raised this point in
1958 and have been interested in
it since that time. My inten
tion is to press for action on myi
.bill which has been co-sponsor
ed by many of my colleagues
until relief can be had from the
1 unfortunate and unwise Supreme
Court decisions.

lory, living in Washington, D. C„

before a judge, the arrest taking
place at night. There was never
any question about Mallory’s
guilt; he was sentenced to die
m the District of Columbia. The
Supreme Court turned the rapist
free on a pure technicality, it
being that too much time had
elapsed between arrest and ar
raignment. There was never
j any question about the volun
l tary confession nor was the sug
gestion ever made ’that it was
extorted by so-called .third-de
gree methods.
Upon being freed, Mallory
dropped from the news. Only
recently he was arrested in
Philadelphia and charged with
the rape of another woman.
Why No Legislation? On Au
gust 19, 1958, I spoke on the
Mallory and McNabb decisions
in the Senate during debate on
a House bill. . There was much
confusion at the time as to how
legislation should be . drafted.
Although I was not the author
of the bill under consideration,
I supported it. The session was
drawing to a close and no ade
quate time was available to pre
sent a simple bill for considera
tion by Congress. As a conse
quence, no legislation was pass-1
ed. Since that ‘time, I have
planned to present my bill.
In 1958, I told the Senate;
"What has been the result of
the Mallory decision? The
Court has abolished a rule of
evidence which the English
speaking race, in the practical
administration of justice, has
found to be a sound rule. The
[ Court threw it on the scrap
: luap. What do we have in its
| place. We have a rule of evi
; denep based upon a holding that
i the detention of a man between
| arrest and arraignment for as
’ much as 7 1 a hours constitutes
unnecessary delay and that any
confession he makes during de
tention is inadmissible no mat
ter how freely and voluntarily
he acts in making it.”

takes.
‘To build big,” said Mr. Mur
ray, “a person must have a
good foundation, devote many
constant days to preparation and
must dedicate himself to get a
job done. It is absolutely ne
cessary to have faith in people
who teach ,or lead when called
upon to do a specific job. A
spirit of optimism plays a greet
part when a team has the feel
ing that it will win a game. In
athletics, it’s man against man
and spirit ‘against spirit that
makes athletes worthwhile.”
Mr. Murray also presented
miniature footballs and certifi
cates to football players. These
