Time in jail
for youth
‘justified’
United Press International
ST. LOUIS — A judge Sunday
defended his decision to put a 16-
year-old boy in a jail cell to give him
a taste of prison — even though the
boy tried to hang himself.
St. Louis Circuit Court Judge Mi
chael J. Hart ordered Anthony Jack-
son, who was in court to discuss a
probation violation, to a holding cell
Friday to give the youth a sample of
life behind bars.
Jackson tied his shoe laces around
his neck and attached the laces to
bars on the cell door in an apparent
attempt to hang himself. Two St.
Louis sheriffs deputies found Jack-
son before the youth killed himself.
He was taken to City Hospital
where his condition Sunday re
mained guarded.
The boy had been sentenced to 15
years in prison but placed on five
years probation April 27 after
pleading guilty to a charge of first-
degree assault for wounding an
other youth with a firearm in August
1983.
The judge Sunday said it is not
uncommon to give a person a looR at
life behind bars.
“You never want anyone to take
their own life, of course,” Hart said.
“But it amounts to about one hour in
that holdover (cell). It’s a common
thing to run young people through a
penitentiary so they can see the situ
ation.
Jackson’s probation required that
he enter and remain in St. Louis’ pri
vate Logis Academy and pay
$10,000 in restitution to the shoot
ing victim.

Mondale attacks Reagan's policies
United Press International
MINNEAPOLIS — Walter Mon
dale said Sunday President Reagan
has raised doubts whether he re
spects the division between church
and state and if his view is encour
aged it “will corrupt our faith and di
vide our nation.”
Mondale, giving his regular
weekly radio address before leaving
for New York to kick-off his cam
paign today blasted the Republican
platform and condemned President
Reagan’s statements connecting reli
gion and politics.
Mondale, who joins running mate
Geraldine Ferraro today in New
York to begin a coast-to-coast cam
paign swing, played down the signif
icance of polls showing him far be
hind Reagan.
Until Sunday, Mondale had care
fully avoided directly criticizing Rea
gan on the religion issue. He
changed that policy Sunday shortly
after attending his home church,
Grace Trinity Presbyterian.
“The Republicans in Dallas raised
doubts whether they respect the wall
our founders placed between gov
ernment and religion,” Mondale
said. “In America, our faith has al
ways been intensely personal. It is
between the individual and God, be
tween families and their churches
and synagogues, with no room for
politics in between.
“That f reedom has made America
the most religious nation on earth.
And no matter what they said in Dal
las, government must not be per
mitted to dictate the religious life of
our people.”
If that force is unleashed, it will
corrupt our faith and divide our na
tion. That future is not the Ameri
can way.”
Mondale said polls showing him
far behind are too early to be signifi
cant. He said polls are “all over the
map.”
A UPI survey showed Reagan
ahead in 39 states with 412 electoral
votes and Mondale ahead in three
states and the District of Columbia
with 26 electoral votes. Each state
with a total of 100 electoral votes
were rated toss-ups.
If the Reagan margin should
hold, Mondale could be trounced
worse than Reagan beat Jimmy Car
ter in 1980 when Reagan got 498
electorial votes and Carter 49.
Mondale promised he and Fer
raro will lay out detailed plans for
what they would do in a new admin
istration.
