   COEUR  D'ALENE,  Idaho  (AP)  -- Law enforcement officers from
across Idaho are expected to gather here next week for the fourth
annual Idaho Criminal Justice conference.

   Sessions are scheduled May 5-8 in the Coeur d'Alene Resort.

   Attorney  General  Jim  Jones,  chairman  of  the   sponsoring
Criminal   Justice  Council,  said  the  meeting  is  part  of  a
continuing effort to enhance coordination between law enforcement
agencies.  The conference will seek to promote professionalism in
law enforcement through training programs, Jones said.

   "With the scarcity of resources at all  levels  of  government
for law enforcement and other purposes, it is critical that city,
county  and  state  agencies  work together as best we can," said
Jones.

   Among panels will be one moderated by Pocatello  Police  Chief
Norm   Propst   on   confinement  versus  probation  for  serious
offenders.

   Other events include a  discussion  of  recent  activities  of
northern  Idaho  white supremacy organizations and an overview of
the Rajneesh investigation in the state of Oregon.
