3-The new governor and
osk propose to establish e
e working arrangement
ith law enforcement offi-
cials in Oregon and Wash-
ington for constant inter-
change of information on
the movements and activi-
ties of known criminals
along the Pacific seaboard.
4-Mosk said that in
agreement with Brown, he
will maihtain constant sur-
veillance over known gang-
sters and racketeers in
California no matter how
well behaved they maybe
at any particular time since
they will be regarded by
the Brown Administrationt le talk with the other De -
o ratic, elected State officia
t impress upon- them t
necessity of avoiding any co -
flict of interest or other slip
which would not make integ-
rity in office the order of the
administration which comes
into power with a sweep for
only the second time since
the turn of the century.
TOUGHER POLICY.
Speaking with some ve-
hemence, Brown announced
that under hié administra-
tion the Adult Authority will
follow a much tougher
policy." L .
The Governor-elect indi-
cated he was particularly out-
aged about the case of J ck
ainsberger, Los Ange es
andyman, who is held in as
egas in the sacrifice sl y-
ing of 23 year old Erl e
Folker. Rainsberger said he
killed the woman in a secret
ritual because my voices
told me to. ,
Brown,' whom Mosk re-
places in January as Attorney
General, said:
Im going to see that
there is a closer relation-
ship between the peace of-
ficers who handle arrests
and prosecution of crimi-_
als, and the Department
f Corrections, which is
nder the" jurisdiction of
he Govemor. A
fToo often, in my opi
ion, the police have
ested people who ha
committed crimes of vio-
lence and then seen them
turned loose for reasons
that are difficult to under-
stand. ,
r "I have in mind the
Adult Authorityr _
In the -recent case o_f
the sacrifice murder i'
Nevada, that man eom_
mitted three assaults wit
knives on women.an
served three terms in th
reformatory. -
as potential -enemies of
our State. =
The Governor, Mosk and
Lynch discussed crime after
Brown had flown to Los An-
geles for a coast to coast ques-
tion and answer telecast.
.After the television show,
Brown dropped into a nearby
hurch, then ew back to
alm Springs.
It is known that Brown
2 so intends to have a roundTWO ROBBERIES.
p . Then he came to Cali-
fornia and committed two
armed robberies with a
knife and was released
after three years.
Those are things on
which I will demand a
much tougher policy.
On crimes against prop-
erty, we can take a greater
chance, but not on this
sort of thing?O <9
Mosk very much .for all _
my legal advice. _; 1 j '
, He explained various.Stat
departments have their to '
lawyers, too; and that he will
work with them, but in the
last analysis the Attorney
General will be my lawyer
there must be one final legal
authority as.a-matter of P01"
icy. -. _4 .
Brown, his staff and-this
family will fly back to San
Francisco tomorrow afte -
noon. . ' _
He will be at his desk
the Attorney Genera1s offic Y Brown said he will rely on Tuesday.

Job--Ami Pension
_' C3 By WESTBROOK PEGLER7: a,PAT BROWN, the Governor of California, informs
i me on the Governor-s official stationery that he
certainly will insist on the pension of $16,000 which
;preceding waves of similar politicians have provided
ifor every one of their kind who hits the jackpot in the
lelect-ion returns. Californias ex-Governors become
_ eligible at the 'age of 63. Browns
eligibility begins in 1968. Two ex-
Governors now are eligible, Earl
Warren, the Chief Justice, and
Goodwin Knight, Republican, who
lost out in the last election.
Brown is now flaring his nostrils,
i§."$,-4-ff qzrig. ._ arching his neck and tossing his__;; mane for the Democratic Presidential
nomination atthis years convention.
_ That, however, is just futurity mat-
_» jf ter, looking toward 1964. He will not_ PEGLER eally go to the post in 1960 except to
the extent of complimentary men-
tion in gaseous amenities preceding the practical
rites of the smoke-filled room. 92
Brown is an old-style political roughneck, remin-
iscent of Ed Kelly of Chicago and Frank Hague of
New Jersey. Like Warren before him, he runs with thellabor union machines and gets the allegiance of aQ; ._,-5. 5

problematical element of -union serfs who think of
themselves in warm endearment as labor whileQbeating their wives and throwing acid on new auto-
lmobiles in parking lots which have been declaredunfair. _ i
. Unlike the old age Social Security benefits, avail-
able to the common man, the California ex-Gover-
nors pension is an unconditional vested financial
lien on the people's taxes. Lesser pensions to states-
men in descending array down to civil service lava-
tory man, are equally secure and payable in the sweat
of those who toil.
Pay at Lifetime High .
Brown sets forth a belief that a years time which
he put in campaigning for the job in his own interest
and at no popular insistence constituted a precious
public service. The specific value and nature of'the
public benefit thus conferred by a man seeking a job
at $40,000 a year, Brown's highest pay in all his life,
and a $16,000 pension for life, are not examined in
the Governor's letter. He is, by formal certificate, a
aw er but he set forth this claim with no ve
terial. ' t

Theyhave no treaties or declared political relations withCaliforhia. He does not set forth the cost of suchtravel or who paid it. Neither, for that matter, doesGovernor Brown reconcile his sacrifice by absencefrom his family with the fact that Mrs. Brown waswith him on this luxurious voluntary journey and onmany forays within the State, all at his own initiative
in his own interest. - »
So there will be no misunderstanding, theletter says, when I attain the age of 63, nine yearsfrom now, I certainly will accept the pension. Beforerunning for Governor, I was offered a position at agreater salary and a greater pension in private
business. * He submits no evidence on either of these points.Notwithstanding his certification as a lawyer, Mr.Brown assumes that the State of California was com-peting with an unidentified rival for the intelligenceand morality of a man who could base his claim on
this ground. , _
Doesnt Think Hes lverpaid
California did not seek Mr. Brown for Governoron any terms. And unlike most employers in privatecommerce, California did not-legally require as muchas a letter from his pastor. I raise no doubt that hecould have met this condition. But he did not have to.
The public is much less exacting in such things thansay a bonding company underwriting a chain store
cashier. - _
I live in a goldfish bowl and every move I makeis criticized by someone who doesnt know anythingabout the problems with which I have to contend, the Governor continues. With all of this, I like thejob or I wouldnt be here. But I dont think I am over-paid and, actually, the pension is a part of the con-=sideration that induced me to stay in public life. ~
You are all wrong on this, both Warren andKnight are entitled to the pension. Any fair reap-praisal must necessarily lead you to the same_'con-clusion. If this does not give you a platform to de-nounce me, I am not entitled to the Governorship norto the pension." .' iGovernor Brown closed with a courteous invita-tip_ri_t_ohis office in Sacramento for futher discussion.

Dear Mr. Hoover: f 1- i " . t; = =,
May I thank you for your letter on our 1957 Reporton Crime Statistics in California, and the copy ofthe letter to the Time Magazine on its interpretationof your statistics in the FBI Uniform Crime Report.
You may note in The Examiner story on our reportthat this office is not quoted as giving out the figure
t the end of paragraph H without the source being xgf 35 per cent, but that the statement is used unquoted _
ualified.
The heading of The Examiner story was a matter ofeditorial selection within the newspaper office, andwas picked for the "lead" from a paragraph on thesecond page of our release. Enclosed!
In the matter of the 35 per cent mentioned by TheExaminer, this might have been a conservative estimatebased on a May 12 statement by Senator Knowland ofCalifornia before the United Press editors in convention Ein Ojai. The Ins Angeles Times quotes the Senator as ;saying that FBI statistics show an increase crime rate10f 77 per cent in California from 1950 to 1957. Of§course, for this increase I am blamed. As a chief lawenforcement officer yourself, I believe that such aXstatement is as unfair as if you were held responsiblefor the national crime increase. Copy enclosed! The ;San Francisco Call-Bulletin also quotes the figure of73 per cent, as did most California newspapers, C0pyL,L;V ____,/__,_, _.,'-'§__¢_,;_/,-= -; I ..,~ REC- 55, ,92' , , -1-: .-x!

You may wish to clarify the quoted figures of the Senat

The rates are based on the number of occurrences for each
100,000 persons in the State based on the 1957 population.
Exception is taken in the report to the figures of the
Federal Bureau of Investigation in its Uniform Crime Reports
3 in using the decennial United States Census. This presents
California's crime in "an unjustifiable unfavorable light as the
1 te is one-third greater in population over 1957 than it was
I
1in 1950."
' ~ California's 1957 population, on estimates of the State
Department of Finance, was 1N,l60,000.
The seven major crimes in 1957 in comparison with 1956 are
listed as follows:
1956
165,250
willful homicide h7HTotal
Robbery 10,182
Assault 13,620
Burglary 84,771

11,582
15,349
101,060
17,767
u5,178
2,605
These seven major crimes show an increase of 12
in 1957 over 1956.
Arrests for adult felony are up 10.6 per cent.
Felony complaints increased 11.0 per cent..8 per cent
Number of defendants prosecuted rose 13.7 per cent.
This means that serious crime has increased in California
between 10 per cent and 13 per cent faster than the rise in
population," says the report to the Attorney General.
Rises in rates are general in all counties, but San.Francisco
and Alameda Counties are listed as still relatively low, with
the average for the Bay Area and seven other counties being
7.1 per cent.
Los Angeles County had a rise of lQ.9, and nine other
Southern California counties had an average of 17.8 per cent.
It is pointed out that the increase in population from
1950 to 1957 is estimated at 5H.6 per cent in the nine Southern

MEMORANDUM TO THE PRESS -
FOR_ " E : JULY 16, 1958 RnL ASE
The number of major criminal matters handled by law enforce-
ment agencies and courts in California rose 12.8% during 1957,
Attorney General Edmund G. Brown reported today in a summary
entitled "Crime in California, 1957."
"The data, compiled by the Bureau of Criminal Statistics in
my Department, are the result of the best criminal reporting
system in the country. It is a compilation in which dedicated
civil servants of the State Department of Justice and local police
agencies in California are working together as equal partners.
"A large part of the statistical increase in crime is due to
better reporting, better procedures for obtaining data, and
better law enforcement methods.
"But beyond those factors, there is still an underlying
increase in unlawful conduct in our communities. That increase
is one of the disturbing symptoms of our times both in California
and across the nation.
"For that problem,the blame can no more be put on law
enforcement officials, sheriffs, and district attorneys than
placing blame for a rising divorce rate," Brown said.
Comparison of the California situation with that reported
by the FBI for the entire country, shows that while police and
criminal court work in California rose l0 to 13% faster than
the State's population increase, crime last year rose four times
faster than the population increase for the nation as a whole.
The information on California's crime trends was based on
four separate series of data:
l. Seven maJor felony offenses;
2. The number of adults arrested and booked on all felony
charges;3. The number of adults arrested who have appeared in court
on felony complaints; _ _
< " r8 19Ten Sacramento Valley counties increased lh.9 per cent in
crime, with seven San Joaquin Valley counties showing a 3.5
per cent rise.
In adult felony arrests there was a total of 75,802.
l8 years of age and over!, for a rate of 535.3 persons per
100,000 population. Highest increase in arrests was for forgery,
with 19.3 per cent. Numerically, burglary in 1957 accounted for
the highest number of arrests: 16,509, followed by narcotics
arrests of 10,353, and checks 9,120.
There was an increase in the number of felony complaints,
with burglary complaints up 16.5 per cent, grand theft 16.7,
auto theft 16.8, checks 17.8.
In 1957 there were 23,969 defendants filed on in superior
court on felony charges, compared with 20,252 in 1956. All
offenses brought to court showed rate increase, with the
exception of homicide which had a 7.2 decrease 956 U9U;
1957 - M77!-
The Crime in California Report, 1957, was compiled by
the staff of Ronald H. Beattie, Chief of the Bureau of Criminal
Statistics, and has been sent to all peace officers and press
media.

He cites the fact that Senator Knowland has been ,_quoted in California papers as saying that FBI statistics show an increased crime '3rate of 77% in California from 1950 to 1957. He then says, "Of course for this increasI am blamed. As a chief law enforcement officer yourself, I believe that such a Q;statement is as unfair as if you are held responsible for the national crime increase.

Honorable Edmund G. Brown
Attorney General,_-¬>sm¢ oi Caliiornia? 800 State Building
San Francisco 2, Caliiornia
My dear Mr. Attorney General:
e l received your letter oi July 81, 1958, concerning crime in Caliiornia.In your letter you seem to question the accuracy oi the data which has appearedin the press in California concerning the comparison oi crime in 1957 with that
oi 1950.
So that you will understand how the iigure oi 77 per cent was derived,a computation was made oi the total number oi crimes reported to us in 1950 .by cities in Caliiornla and that figure compared with the total crimes reportedby the same cities in 1957. This reected a '16. 7 per cent increase. The datawhich was used in computing this percentage was submitted to this Bureau bylaw eniorcement agencies in Caliiornia. Consequently, the per cent changeindicated is based not upon any FBI data but is based entirely upon data submitteby Caliiornia law enforcement agencies. l am not unmindiul oi the tact thatpopulation estimates oi the U. S. Census Bureau reect that there was a popu-
lation increase in Caliiornia irom 1950 to 195'! oi 32 per cent. V
Since receiving your letter we have reviewed your publication, "Crimein Caliiornia, 195'!" and compared the gures therein relating to ielony crimesreported to your Bureau with similar data presented in your iirst publication tor1982 and this reects an increase oi approximately 10 per cent tor this tire-yearperiod. ' R
92
I hope that the foregoing claries our position for you and assures you Woi the accuracy oi the data which has been compiled irom statistics submitted _>by C Q _ ientotcement agencies. _ - f
