This award is based upon | his outstanding record as a jurist in the prompt and impartial ad- ministration of justice, his able rights of the residents of the Dis- loyal service in the advancement of our charitable, religious an patriotic institutions.” Justice Laws in response declared | through the presentation of the certificate, would inspire him to “still greater efforts.” Then, in an address, he empha- sized the important place the Dis- trict holds in the Nation, declaring that a “citizen of the District is| accepting a challenge from through- out the country,” in that programs and ideas developed here spread‘ rapidly. Praises Pre-Trial Procedure. Justice Laws criticized lawyers who go to court improperly pre- pared to present their cases, and judges and citizens who become lax in their efforts to help toward proper and speedy justice. Asserting that more attention is now being turned toward the courts than ever before, Justice Laws praised methods to “streamline” court procedure, told of the effec- tiveness of the new rules of civil procedure and extolled the new method of pre-trial procedure adopted here for its aid in speeding up the handling of cases. Upon motion of Mr. Richardson, the society adopted a resolution to send a message to Justice Peyton Gordon of District Court express- ing sympathy over his recent illness. and wishing him a speedy recovery.

The action came at the close of Saturday which would have allowed the insignia to be worn on sweaters, the convention adopted a resolu- | tion permitting the insignia, which includes the flag, to be worn as arm bands only on “suitable occa- sions.” The resolution was on a motion by Carroll Glenn Appleman of Bethlehem, Pa., junior State presi- dent of the Pennsylvania C.
