                Gentlemen:

                            We are  transmitting   herewith   the report   of a

                special   task force   staff  set up  in August,  1968,  by  the

                District   of Columbia   Committee  on  the  Administration   of

                Justice   Under  Emergency  Conditions. The task force was

                commissioned   to  probe  more  intensively   several  subjects

                discussed   preliminarily   in  our  interim  report  of May  25,

                1968.   The  task  force  report,  entitled   Justice  in  Time

                of  Crisis,  was  prepared  by  a staff  of  professionals

                under  the  supervision   of William   A. Dobrovir,   Esq.   It

                deals  primarily   with  two aspects   of the  administration

                of  justice  during  and  after  the  civil  disorders  which

                followed   the death  of  Rev.  Martin  Luther  King,  Jr.  on

                April  4,  1968:  (1) the  setting  of  bail  by the  D. C.

                Court  of  General  Sessions,   and  (2) the  charging  policy

                of  the United   States  Attorney's   office.
