Wiretap Bill Defeat Seen by Demo Leader
Sacramento report says Assembly Democratic caucus chair predicts defeat for a controversial bill allowing police wiretaps in California. Key figures include S C Masterson and Charles E Chapel, with support from peace officer groups and opposition from Democrats. The measure would require court orders for tapping in murder, kidnapping, armed robbery, burglary and narcotics cases, while Ways and Means reviews costs. Masterson argues it invades privacy and vows 41 votes against it.
