If it developed tha he was guilty of a jhe would be sent to another su- |pertor judge whose court handles wuch offenses. In theory this in the police caurt, but in practice it does not work out because of the divided authority, JURY SYSTEM UV. K, SAYS JURIST I asked the Judge what he thought of the present superior court jury system, “The best and most that can be devised,” he replied. “It gives every man a fair chance If properly handled. The trouble is that representative men try to dodge jury duty. And the judges are foo easy and let them off too often, After all who can, on one pretext or another, there are not enough capable men left to make up a good working jury. And the criminal lawyers eliminate most of those when it comes to a trial, “I think it would be a good plan |to make all competent men and | women subject to jury duty, and make them take their turn when it comes. As it now stands, lawyers, doctors, officials and many other | groups can escape jury duty. Add to this the many men who claim they are too busy to serve, it re- | duces the available jury list to a iim- ited number who are, capable of | welghing evidence.” Judge Griffiths also believes that, if one governor can-handle a whole state, one county commissioner should be able to handle one county, He says we have three we have only two, as there is al: ways a division of two on one side and one on the other, Hoe thinks making it one and hold. ing him responsible would be a better plan, And {t is his opinion that no mat ter what system of government we work under, the man on the job {s one of the most {mportant factors In law enforcement.
