Riverside County supervisors began drafting an ordinance to bill the United Farm Workers Organizing Committee for sheriff's surveillance costs totaling 7,900 dollars. The move comes despite warnings from the county attorney.
County counsel Ray T. Sullivan told the supervisors there was no legal precedent for the action and doubted if the measure would stand up in court. Supervisors said they will vote on enacting the ordinance at their next meeting June 15. The sheriff's office said 37,900 was tallied by deputies on duty in 1969 to prevent violence during union demonstrations in Coachella Valley vineyards.
The State Youth Authority reports first time commitments for youths involved with drugs climbed sharply since 1966. Most had prior delinquency records other than drugs. The 1969 study shows total commitments down from 5470 to 4473, while drug offense commitments rose from 441 to 627 and combined offenders with drugs increased from 1271 to 2271.
