FIVEFILE PROTEST T0 DRY LAW BIL Oppose Move Providing for Trial by Commissioner Instead of Jury. By the Associated Press. | Five members of the House judiciary committee today filed minority reports against the Hoover Law Enforcement Commission’s bill to authorize United States commissioners to handle petty prohibition offenses without & jury. The bill is to be considered by the House tomorrow. The five members contend it is unconstitutional, depriv- an accused of trial by jury, and & new edure in crim- ey hold 1t will not M;f congestion because it is not practical. Those signing the minority report were ntatives La Guardia of New York and Bnchm;n’xxx“ ofk wu; :I“\:- blicans, an cker of - Loy Do bice of Soutn Carolina and Celler of New York, Democrats. tative Tucker also filed a minority report against the commission bill to define offenses and fix a maxi- mum penalty at six months in jail and a fine of $500 or both. “Surely to the ordinary man and woman a fine of $500 and imprisonment in jail. for six months cannot be re- garded as ‘petty,’” he sald. ““The bill authorizes the commissioner to recommend the punishment but the Constitution prevents him saying whether the defendant is guilty or in- nocent,” sald La Guardia. ‘“The bill is highly technical in its provisions of criminal jurisprudence vet it is drafted in the phraseology and nomenclature of the cross-word puzsle.” “It is destructive of every funda- mental, precedent, and custom in our | Federal practice. The plan is a slip- shod, ill-advised, impractical system of turning out stereotyped justice in quantity production regardiess of the merits and the circumstances in each individual case.” ‘This report by La Guardia was signed by all five dissenting members.
