The United States Supreme Court is scheduled to hear arguments this aft- ernoon on the question of whether a motorist is entitled to & jury el for the offense of reckless driving in the District. The case hac been brought to the highest court by municipal author- ities, who contend that Congress frcat- ed reckless driving as a petty offense in the traffic law, and, therefore, as one that may be tried without & jury.

The question is heing tested in the case of Willlam H. Colts, who was charged with reckless driving & year ago. After being denied & trial by jury in Police Court, he was convicted, but took the case o the District Court of Appeals, which decided in nis favor and reversed the Police Court. In asking the United States Supreme Ccurt to review the case the District argued that the Court of Appeals erred in holding that the man was entitled to a jury trial and also in holding that reckless driving is not & petty offense within the meaning of the Constitution. The traffic lJaw provided for trial by jury in cases for which the penaity | might be more than $300 or more than 90 days. In other cases the trials were to be by the court, except where the accused would be entitled to jury trial under the Constitution. The penalty for | the first offense of reckless driving was Vacu with reckless dri: in 1929 and that | fixed law at from $35 to $100 or from 30 to 90 days. Punishment Limits Doubled. In their brief, counsel for Colts ques- tioned the yow!r of Congress to fix ar- bitrary limits of punishments as test for determining the right of trial by jury. They argued that if Col could fix 90 days as the line at which ."“U mflllll D!“l!h. there 'm;lr?m?e noth- ng preven!
