Justice and mercy have become
such scarce qualities that Amer-
icans are well on their way to insti-
tutionalizing injustice, civil rights
lawyer Lloyd Barbee of Milwaukee
said Friday night.
Entire groups of people
blacks, poor, women, Hispanics,
"have a hard time getting
gays
justice," said Barbee, a former
state lawmaker.
-
"They have an even harder time
getting mercy. Justice, at least in
this country, is a word. It isn't a
fact. There's no reality to it."
Barbee spoke of numerous ex-
amples of injustice before about
100 people at the Community Meal
of the Heart, sponsored by the Mar-
tin Luther King Jr. Coalition.
The coalition held the com-
munity meal at the First United
Methodist Church in Madison in the
spirit of King, said Lea Zeldin, who
helped organize the dinner. The
meal of swordfish, rice and salad
was free and most of the food was
donated by area businesses and
cooperatives.
During his legislative days in the
1960s and 1970s, Barbee was an
early champion of civil rights and
fought successfully for a state open-
housing bill. He also gained a repu-
tation for his unsuccessful attempts
to legalize prostitution and drugs
and empty the jails.
Barbee cited the recent U.S. in-
vasion of Panama and the arrest of
fallen strongman Manuel Antonio
Noriega as prime examples of in-
justice in the American legal sys-
tem.
no legal scholar, Barbee said he
still finds it hard to believe the
president is calling Noriega a
criminal before he has been tried
and convicted.
Despite promises of justice,
Noriega will have a difficult time
getting a fair trial, Barbee said.
"Nobody seems to be questioning
that lack of justice," he said.
There are more examples of in-
justice, he said. The educational
system is failing a large number of
minority students, especially in Mil-
waukee, Barbee said. So-called lib-
eral lawmakers are proposing wel-
fare cuts at a time when funding
should be expanded. Homeless and
shelter programs, as humane as
they are, don't go far enough.
The legal system, especially,
must strive to provide justice for
all, not just the wealthy and the
well-appointed, Barbee said. The
rich tend to get pardoned more
often or only face stiff fines for the
crimes they commit, while the poor
are consigned to making license
plates, he said.
"We're moving in a direction of
creating more crimes, building
more institutions and there is very
little re-education," Barbee said.
"It's basically a punishment sys-
tem."
To improve living conditions for
all, to move toward justice and
mercy, people must begin thinking
of themselves as part of the human
race and not of one ethnic group,
Barbee said.
If people start seeing themselves
as part of the whole, Barbee said,
"We will have more justice because
we will have a coalition of people
Claiming that President Bush is looking for mutual respect."

My weekend was a delightful
mixture of civil rights, the Civil
War, a refreshing view of scores
of people eagle-watching at Prai-
rie du Sac, and an engaging drive
through backroads Wisconsin.
It got off to a good start Friday
night at a Community Meal of the
Heart, sponsored by the Martin
Luther King Jr. Coalition, which
featured a reunion with old
friends including former state
Rep. Lloyd Barbee, who, along
with the late Rev. James Groppi,
has served as this state's civil
rights conscience.
I got to know and respect Bar-
bee back in the 1950s when the
first open housing protests started
in Madison and Milwaukee.
Barbee, a distinguished black
lawyer who has used his legal tal-
ents to make significant inroads
into Milwaukee's segregated
school system, still carries the fire
of revolt in his system. Even with
progress in civil rights, "justice in
this country... is a word, not a
fact," Barbee told his listeners at
the First United Methodist Church
dinner.
The dinner was organized by
Lea Zeldin, another longtime
friend. I remember Zeldin back in
the early 1960s when she helped
organize the Congress for Racial
Equality in Madison. CORE was to
rile the white establishment by
holding sit-ins in the old Manches-
ter's department store and the
Sears store, then located on East
Washington Avenue. The demon-
strations protested the lack of mi-
nority employees.
Zeldin has been riling the com-
fortable in this community for a
long time. Widowed and left with-
out funds in the 1950s, she man-
aged to raise four sons and helped

provide them with a college
education. I remember seeing Lea
scavenging through dumpsters be-
hind the University Avenue Kohl's
store looking for food for the hun-
gry.
I also had a pleasant visit with
Ruth Doyle and Gretchen Pfanku-
chen, two other longtime fighters
for liberal causes.
Saturday morning I discovered
that I wasn't the only person eager
to see the American eagles at
Prairie du Sac. There were dozens
of spectators watching the eagles
soaring over the open waters of
the Wisconsin River below the
power plant dam.
Sauk County Highway PF in-
vited me into the Honey Creek
bottom lands. I branched off on
County E through Wittwen. The
village campground slept under a
pale wintry sun.
Then on to Spring Green on Wis-
consin 60. Next came lunch at the
Post House restaurant, which for
years was called the Dutch Kitch-
en. The change of owners, from
the Meyers family to Jack and
Mary Ann Baryenbruch, has not
hurt the quality of the cooking. It's
still first class.
Crossing the Wisconsin River on
23, I stopped at the Unity Chapel
on County T across the meadows
from Frank Lloyd Wright's famed
Taliesin.

country church is the resting place
for many of the Welsh pioneers
who settled the area. They in-
cluded many of Wright's ances-
tors.
Wright's grave, inside a circular
stone border, bears his name but
not his body. His widow angered a
lot of the folks in the area when
she had the a local undertaker dig
up the famed architect's body and
ship it to Arizona.
-
A familiar name caught my eye
Sydney Makepeace Wood. It is
the grave of a son of Crestwood
neighbors, Syd and Jane Wood. A
small, red Montello granite
marker covers the grave of their
son Sydney Makepeace Wood III,
or "Woody," who died in 1976 at
the age of 25. Woody shares the
plot with other members of the
family, including his grandparents
and great-grandparents. There,
too, Jane Wood tells me, is where
she and Syd are to be buried.
What a beautiful spot to sleep
the long sleep. Among relatives, in
the shade of the towering pines.
I finished up the weekend at
Madison's Esquire Theatre view-
ing "Glory," a marvelous movie
about black soldiers in the Civil
War. I never saw a better film
about that tragic conflict. It high-
lights an aspect of the war that
has been shamefully neglected.
The gripping movie reminds us
that the war, in which 660,000
Americans died, was fought over
slavery. "Glory" reminds us of the
national shame a shame that
North and South bore and still
bear.
Dr. King's assassination gave us
tragic evidence that the Civil War
did not end the travails of the
blacks. If you don't believe me,
ask Lloyd Barbee.

Wisconsin's Legislature has
come a long way
JUST THINK OF the odds you
could have obtained in November
1969 by betting that just 15 years later
these three things would occur:
in 15 years
way in
Capitol
• A 32-year-old woman, who had Watch
just given birth to a child, would be
elected leader of the Republicans in
the State Senate.
A 30-year-old black would be se-
lected as co-chairman of the budget-
writing Joint Finance Committee.
• One of the priests participating
in welfare demonstrations would be
selected the Democratic majority
leader of the Wisconsin Assembly.
All of those events, startling in
terms of 1969 thinking, happened this
month: Susan Engeleiter was elected
Senate minority leader, Gary George
was selected co-chairman of the Fi-
nance Committee, and Dismas
Becker was selected as majority
leader in the Assembly.
A QUIET REVOLUTION has oc-
curred in the way we are governed.
The setting in 1969 now seems a light
year away in social terms:
There were two women in the
Legislature; now there are 26. There
was one black; now there are four.
Eight members of the 33-member
State Senate were at least 70 years
old; now there is one - Carl Thomp-
son of Stoughton and he did not
seek re-election.
-
The Legislature was a white, old-
boys club in which seniority and con-
servative views counted for virtually
everything.
Harold Froehlich of Appleton was
the speaker of the Assembly. He later
was to serve in Congress in the diffi-
cult role as a Republican member of
the House Judiciary Committee that
By Matt Pommer
Capital Times
Staff Writer
handled the impeachment charges
against Richard Nixon.
His colleagues gave the then-pudgy
Frohelich a bicycle at the end of the
session, and a photographer caught a
picture of him riding in the aisle after
a long night session.
OF COURSE, the Legislature re-
flected society as a whole. The fall of
1969 was a time of discontent: The
opposition to the Vietnam war was
growing, but many still thought fight-
ing communists in southeast Asia
was an honorable cause.
On the Madison campus, co-eds still
had hours, anti-war protests contin-
typing and the men the talking.
Becker, then a Carmelite priest, ar-
rived in Madison hours after the wel-
fare protesters, led by his colleague
Fr. James Groppi, had taken over the
Assembly chambers. Becker stayed
with the 1,000 protesters. Later he
was clubbed by Dane County sheriff's
deputies during another demonstra-
tion.
THE PRESS HOWLED at the
Groppi demonstration. They cor-
rectly called it a near-revolution.
Only a lunatic would suggest that one
of the priests in that demonstration
would be elected to the Legislature.
And suggesting that one of the priests
would be majority leader would have
guaranteed a fitting for a straight-
jacket.
The idea that a black man would be
co-chairman of the Finance Commit-
tee wasn't crazy, but the odds would
be very, very long. Barbee was put on
the Finance Committee late in 1969,
but that was viewed as an effort to
ued and football coaches blamed placate those who had participated in
lousy seasons on protesters. They
said good athletes wouldn't come to
campuses like Madison.
The minorities in the 1969 Legisla-
ture were all in the Assembly. State
Reps. Lloyd Barbee, D-Milwaukee,
was the only black and State Reps.
Carolyn Blanchard Allen, R-Edger-
ton, and Esther Doughty Luckhardt,
R-Horicon, were the only women.
None of the three played much of a
role. Barbee's social agenda was
great for newspaper readers and his
constituents back in Milwaukee, but
it was a joke to fellow legislators.
Luckhardt and Allen were conser-
vative tokens in a building in which
women seemed destined to do the
the protest.
It was to show that the old men in
the Legislature were willing to listen
to a black man. Racism still exists in
the citizenry, but the internal debate
was not on
among Democrats
George's race, but rather on his Mil-
waukee base and his views on issues.
That would not have been possible in
1969.
ENGELEITER'S selection would
never have been guessed. A majority
of people in 1969 thought the place for
a new mother was at home, not 70
miles away in the State Capitol.
Wisconsin has come a long way in
just 15 years.

Q.
A.
What benefits does the Deferred Prose-
cution/First Offender Program offer victims,
participants, the community, and law enforce-
ment agencies?
• Where programs of this nature do not
exist, offenders receive little or no supervision
and they have no access to resources and ser-
vices following arrest.
Courts and police benefit from the
elimination of costly court fees and time spent
in appearances for court trials, hearings, and
pre-trial conferences.
Taxpayers benefit from reduced court
costs. National studies reveal that the cost of
handling cases through Pre-Trial Intervention
Programs such as this one is less than half the
cost of handling similar cases in the traditional
manner of prosecution.
• Victims who suffer personal property and
monetary loss are compensated by the offender
through restitution or volunteer community
service.
• The recidivism rate (repeated arrests)
for the Dane County Deferred Prosecution/
First Offender Program has been 4%, one of the
lowest rates in the nation for a county this size.
There is a 96% completion rate for participants
involved in similar programs nationwide.

Q.
A.
What is the Deferred Prosecution/First
Offenders Program of the Dane County District
Attorney's Office?
The program is one in which selected
persons, charged for the first time with non-vio-
lent offenses, are diverted out of the formal
criminal court process. Participants sign a
contract by which they agree to attend classes,
make restitution, engage in volunteer work,
secure needed psychiatric, alcohol/drug, voca-
tional or other counselling, or take other ap-
propriate measures to assure that they do not
repeat their criminal behavior. Offenders charg-
ed with retail theft or other property crime
offenses may be required to attend a class. In
return for the successful completion of the
program, the District Attorney's Office agrees
not to proceed with prosecution.
The public benefits from the reduction in
recidivism, the restitution and volunteer work
received, and the savings of court time and
resources. The participants benefit from the
education and counseling received, as well as
the avoidance of a criminal record.
The program deals primarily with of-
fenders charged for the first time with a non-
violent misdemeanor, such as shoplifting and
petty theft. The unit also has special programs
for dealing with first time offenders who are
charged with prostitution, incest and domestic
abuse, and those who are elderly.
What is the length of the contract?
The length of offenders contract depends
on the nature and seriousness of the offense,
his or her attitude, commitment and education-
al or counseling needs. Contracts average from
Q.
A.
Q.
A.
seven to eighteen months. Contracts for persons
55 years and older tend to be shorter, averaging
three to six months.
Who is eligible for participation in the
Deferred Prosecution/First Offender Program?
To participate in the program, an of-
fender must:
• Have no previous criminal conviction or
record.
Be 18 years of age or older or be waived
from juvenile jurisdiction, if under 18.
• Have consent of the Assistant District
Attorney assigned to the case.
• Accept responsibility for the offense.
(Admission of guilt may not be used
against the offender in a criminal court
of law.)
• Voluntarily agree to participate in the
program.
• Meet with a member of the program staff
for a personal interview to determine eligi-
bility for participation in the program.
Can an offender be dropped from the
First Offender Program?
YES! An offender's contract may be
terminated if he/she fails to adhere to any of
the conditions set up in the contract or becomes
involved in any criminal violations, excluding
minor traffic violations, during the contract
period.
If the contract is terminated before
completion of the program, the District At-
torney normally will resume criminal court
proceedings, which may result in a criminal
conviction and criminal record.
Q.
A.
Q.
A.
What happens to the offender's record
upon completion of the First Offender Program?
There will be an arrest record with the
local law enforcement agencies (Madison Police
Department and the Dane County Sheriff
Department), but this record will show the
charge as dismissed as a result of participation
-
in the program. admission of grill
How does Deferred Prosecution differ
from Probation?
A defendant placed on Probation has been
found guilty or has pled guilty to the charge.
Probation involves formal supervision and re-
sults in a criminal conviction and a criminal
record.
An offender in the Deferred Prosecution
First Offender Program does not enter a guilty
plea to the charge and enters the program
voluntarily. Any offender may elect to go to
court rather than participate in the program.
In addition, supervision of an offender under
the First Offender Unit is provided on an in-
formal basis by an intake counselor throughout
the duration of the contract. As a result, parti-

Dear Mr. Erhardt & Mr. Cooper:
I understand that Jonathan A. Geiger may participate in your First
Offender Program. While I am unfamiliar with the procedure for
placement, I have become acquainted with Mr. Geiger's research and
writing skills and wish to volunteer my office as a possible site for
his community work.
Should your office and Mr. Geiger reach an agreement on contract
provisions, please be assured that I will cooperate to the fullest
extent possible.
Sincerely,
David Clarenbach
State Representative

I had a long talk with Lt. Gary Moore (262-4528)
(University Police in charge of RECORDS).
He was a very nice man. Said Jonathan
will need to fill-out a form from the
Crime Information Bureau (CBI) fourth floor
of the Lorraine Hotel. He can pick-up
form and fill it out (needs to be co-signed
by a judge). His prints, rap sheet, and photos
and negs will be returned to him after that.
The UW police don't keep copies of those
things and cannot release them without the
signed and completed form.
