New Haven Directive on Pretrial Evidence Sparks Debate
Federal prosecutors in Connecticut must meet defendants a week before trial to disclose evidence if the defense agrees to reciprocate. U.S. Attorney Jon O. Newman argues the rule advances the truth in court, while many prosecutors fear it undermines the adversary system and increases suspense. The proposal follows a broader discussion of justice and transparency in criminal trials.

Johnson halts major Democratic fund raising moves
President Johnson has stopped large scale Democratic fund raising including new members for the Presidents Club and a planned fall capital dance. He vetoed a New York fund raising dinner for Frank OConnor and told Humphrey not to appear at fund raising events.

Tokyo funds Indonesia’s provisional stabilization and hosts a Seoul conference on fishing loans and Korea’s Five-Year Plan, while critics warn aid can entrench dependency.

First Cincinnati Hamilton and Dayton Rail Road tickets sold
On Sept 19 1851 the first C H and D ticket was sold in Hamilton by Henry S Earhart. The line to link Cincinnati and Dayton winds along the Miami River through Middletown with construction bids dated 1848 and the road opening on March 30, 1848. The project faced farmer opposition over rights of way but engineers chose a west of river route for a shorter line saving 85000 dollars.
