Sheriff Says It’s A Mess

The Michigan Sheriff’s Association today asked that top priority be given to the establishment of reasonable guidelines for the release of information dealing with criminal activities to the news media.

Sheriff Elwin Smith of Eaton County, President of the State Association, said that since the disapproval and withdrawal of guidelines put forth by Michigan State Police the situation has become even more confusing for law enforcement officer throughout the state.

"Every peace officer knows how vital news is to effective law enforcement," Sheriff Elwin Smith said, "But we also are well aware of recent court decisions which tend to cast a shadow on the question of just what we can, and what we cannot release to the news media."

Sheriff Smith pointed out that there is disagreement from county to county as to what constitutes legitimate public information. Sheriff’s, who must rely on the County Prosecutor for advice, find that there is a wide variance of opinion about what can be told about an alleged crime without jeopardizing the case.

"The Attorney General has suggested that his office develop these news guidelines," Sheriff Smith said. "As the President of the Michigan Sheriffs’ Association, and speaking for the Sheriffs of the state, I certainly hope that these guidelines are made available soon, so taht all of us in law enforcement can continue the excellent relations we’ve had with newsmen across the state on a basis of clear understanding of the law.

Understanding Your Health

Each year, during the harvest season, agricultural workers come into Michigan to pick crops. Representing nearly some 100,00 strong, these folks are essential to Michigan agriculture, and it would be a virtually impossible to harvest many crops without their help.

Your state health department was charged last year to the Michigan legislature to administer a fair and equitable Agricultural Labor Camp Licensing Law. What this has meant is that health workers have been inspecting labor camps all over the state to make sure their facilities are up to jar.

The main areas of concern to our investigations have been property water supply; sewage disposal; garbage and refuse disposal; safety hazards; fire hazards; and finally, the quality of the housing. I’m happy to say that much progress has been made in our first year of licensing camps – of course, there’s still much work to do but, we are definately on the center road, to helping growers to improve and maintain these healthful and sanitary, conditions. Last year health workers inspected and licensed 2,610 of these camps. Now, these were camps that were in substantial compliance with the law, or where sanitarians felt that the grower would cooperate and make needed corrections. Of the total number inspected, 480 facilities were issued provisional licenses that required the camp operator to agree to certain improvements within a given length of time. There are also 44 temporary license that required the owner to make the needed corrections within 90 days.

Aiding the health department in the administration of the law is a committee make up of growers, processors, church groups, social workers, public health engineers, and former agricultural workers. The advisory committee, evenly divided between industry and non-industry representatives, provides helpful recommendations for our program staff.

If in the future any changes in the licensing program are necessary, you may rest assured they will be initiated. I’d also like to emphasize that improvements that have been made so far in existing labor camps have been designed to upgrade the living conditions for agricultural workers. Remember, disease organisms do not know political or geographical boundaries, so we must protect against the possibility of their growth everywhere in Michigan – including the previous mentioned camps.

KNOW YOUR MICHIGAN LAW

The Michigan Department of State is authorized to suspend or revoke an operator’s or a chauffeur’s license whenever the Department has reason to believe a driver has become incompetent to drive a motor vehicle, or whenever he has become afflicted with mental or physical infirmities or disabilities rendering it unsafe for such person to drive a motor vehicle, or whenever he has a total of 12 or more points charged against him within a period of two years.

Prior to the enactment of Act 174, of the 1966 Public Acts the Department mailed the driver’s license on the completion of a suspension. In cases where the license expired during the suspension, an authorization for renewal was mailed. However, the Department did not mail the driver’s license on the completion of a revocation, but required the driver to make application for a license at a driver’s license examining station.

With the enactment of Act 174, no significant difference is made between the return of a suspended license and a revoked license. This Act provides that before a license is issued to any person whose license has been suspended or revoked, he shall be examined in a manner prescribed by the Secretary of State and shall meet all the qualifications prescribed by law. Therefore, a person serving a suspension or a revocation after August 1, 1966, must appear at a driver’s license examining station, take and pass a written test on Michigan traffic laws and driving regulations, an oral test as to his physical condition, a vision test, and a road test, before his driving privileges are restored.

Act 174 has increased the work load of the Department of State and the License Appeal Board, since any person whose license is suspended or revoked must be completely examined, and if he fails the examination he has a statutory center to appeal. However, the Department anticipates a smaller percentage of unqualified motor vehicle operators will be on the road after the full implementation of Act 174.
