Law, Who presided last week in Part L of the Seventh District Court of Brook- lyn (East New York) is in Jine with what many another Municipal Court Justice might truthfully say “Last Monday, the first duy of jury term,” sald Justice Law, “there were 964 jury cases awalling trial in the Seventh District alone. Of these 325 were summary dispossess proceedings. Over Manhattan in Registration; Both Sides Claim the Advantage ewly Settled Sections Show Big Gains in Voting Population and Old Campaigners Can’t Guess the Politics of the New Voters. Democratic and Republican leaders profess to find comfort in the regis- tvation figures. Both sides caused a house to house canvass to be made the last two or three days, and especially on Saturday, the last oppor- tunity afforded the voters to register. To this they attribute the great turnout of 146,314, bringing the total for the six days to 423,249, eclipsing Manhattan by 1,718. This ia the sec-¢———————————— ond time that Brooklyn has exceeded |, Manhattan in voting strength, and fur. y, Cropsey started the practice of Judges making a campaign, all the nishes food for the argument that] 00 ft ates for judiciary positions took while Manhatan js at a standstill or . 4 3 s going bagk, Brooklyn is constantly] Atters casy. It was regarded as undignified to appear on the stump or to appeal for votes except by per- sonal letters. Judge Cropsey stirred up a hornet’s nest when he took the stump for himself, declaring that the voters were entitled to see and hear candidates for Judges just as well as candidates for any other places on the ticket, He established a precedent that has heen followed since, al- though the Bar <Assoociation and many civic bodies condemn the prac- tice and believe that Judges should be free from political activity growing in population, Good judges predict that this supremacy is per- monent and that henceforth the lorough on the other side of the East Fiver will outclass old New York in strength. How the leaders figure out an advantage for either side in the registration is not explained All precedents have been upset and thelr predictions are merely speculu- tion, In several districts normalts Republican there has been a falling off, but the same is true of a number of Democratic baliwicks, One of the potent points in an analysis of the figures is that all the suburban dis- tricts and In districts which have de- veloped recently there has been a large increase, Who can tell the pol- voting Assemblyman Bernard F. Gray of the 10th Assembly District he will have double the plurality he re- ceived last year, The district is nor- ‘The remaining 641 were commercial eases for yarying amounts up to $1,000, a large number of which were actions on contracts, and even notes, yet have ween awaiting trial for many months because summary proceedings must take precedence on the calendar “Although many of the summary actions are rapidly disposed of, new ones take thelr places at least equally rapidly. The result is that not more than a day or so of the Jury week can be devoted to the regular business of the court During the with three parts of the Seventh Dis- frist Court th session, no more than ten of the, 641 ould’ be tried."

John H. McCooey, the Democratic leader of Brooklyn, by his own proc- ess of figuring, claims the Democrats have clearly the better of the figures, Jacob A, Livingston, Chairman of the Republican Executive Committee and campaign manager, is quite certain that his party has more than held its own in the registration.
