At the request of State Attorney
General Lee Johnson House B ill
(HB) 100 was introduced in the
House, The b ill proposes that
any witness in a crim inal pro­
ceeding or before a Brand Jury
who "refu ses to testify or pro­
duce evidence of any kind on the
ed” may be compelled to testify
if the court directs him to do so.
I he Women’ s International
League fo r Peace and FREEDOM
(W .I.L.P .F .) is opposed to the
passage of HB 1004 on the
grounds that it "circum vents the
historic applications of the Fifth
Amendment priviledge. T h e
wording of the F ifth Amendment
reads, .„n o r shall be compelled
in any crim ina l case to be a w it­
ness against h im se lf...”
Under the directive of HB1004
the court would, at the motion of
the d is tric t attorney, "hold a
summary hearing at which the
witness may show cause why he
should not be compelled to testify
or produce evidence.” The court

ceming which, in accordance
with the order, he was required
to testify or produce evidence.”
However, opponents say, there
does appear to be a constitutional
| question involved. The wording
ot the F ifth Amendment does not
allow fo r special agreements to
be made by the court to force a
witness to testify if such testi­
mony can be construed to be in
witness against him self.
The
question is, if there is no crim e
on the part of the witness or if
there is no prosecution of the w it­
ness fo r a crim e, is the witness
testifying against him self as
indicated in tne constitutional
language? There has been no
Supreme Court ruling on the
federal law of s im ila r wording
which is now being used in
federal court.
House B ill 1004 passed the
House, 35 to 25, on a recon­
sideration vote after failing the
fir s t tim e, 24 to 30. It is now in
the Senate C rim inal Law and Pro­
cedure Committee. Committee
members are Kenneth Jemstedt,
chairman,
Elizabeth Browne,
John Burns, Ed Fadeiey, C.R.
Hoyt, Anthony Y tu rri, Wallace
Carson, and Vernon Cook.
