As a matter of justice would it uotl
be fair to how a public defender asi
well as a public proaeculor so that if:
a person is before the bar of justice!
and lacking in finance with which to!
secure able defense the public de—;
lender can be called upon as attor-
ney for the defense. And of cotuse,
since the public prosecutor has cer-
tain funds at his command for "pros-
