Idaho district is 5)7 days. The depart

much heavier sentences. More than
115.000 convictions have been obtained
in the state since the law went into 1
effect four years ago. This is an av
erage of 80 a day. Eighty per cent of
the cases tried have resulted in con
victions. Fines have totaled $15, / 26,
593.28.
