; ATLANTA (UPI) The American Bar
'Association defeated a proposal yesterday to
a section of the ABA’s Code of Ethics
banning coyerage of trials by cameras and other
devices used by the media.
; Rejection of the proposal by a voice vote came
despite the fact that 25 states and the District of
” Columbia allow some form of electronic
coverage of trials.
I The proposal, rejected by the ABA’s House of
pelegates during the association’s 41st mid-year
jneeting, said:

with the right to a fair trial. ”
Opponents to the measure argued that
relaxing the ban against cameras would frighten
witnesses away and distract and invade the
privacy of jurors and others.
“That’s all that really matters in a trial, when
the witness testifies,” said James Bierbower of
Washington, D.C. He said television “would
make a circus of it.”
“Do we want to turn a courtroom into a TV
scene?” asked Chicago attorney Barnabas
Sears. “Most trial lawyers are hams to start
with.”
One delegate argued in favor of the television
coverage by saying that in one Florida cour
troom a judge who was ordinarily a “shoulder
shrugger and eye roller became a model of
judicial decorum” in front of the cameras.
The delegates, still faced with proposed new
lawyer discipline procedures and juvenile
justice standards, are to adjourn tomorrow.
Attorney General Griffin Bell, who addressed
the ABA Sunday along with Chief Justice Warren
Burger, held a news conference yesterday and
said American courts turn loose “too many
people who endanger the community.” Bell also
called for a return to a bail system that would
keep repeat offenders off the streets.

view of crime. Some people ought not to be let out
—some people are bad.”
Bell denied he was endorsing a “preventive

in the early 1970 s by former Attorney General
John Mitchell and other officials of the Nixon
administration.
But Bell said judges need greater discretion in
deciding whether to release accused persons
pending trial.
He said pre-trial detention might result in
some innocent people serving time, but added

“not everything in life is fair, as we have been
reminded bv our leader.”
He was referring to President Carter telling
feminists last year that "life is unfair” while
discussing the abortion issue.
Bell said persons held without bail would still
be presumed innocent but “the recidivist types
... those who are apt to commit a violent crime
should be held.”
“One purpose of bail is to make sure that a
person causes no further harm to society and I
consider that as important a purpose as seeing
that a person shows up in court,” Bell said. '
