Judge Moody, of the St. Louis Circuit
Court, delivered an opinion that the

ton, as a qualification for jurors, was
void, especially so since the decision Of
the United States Supreme Court in the
Cummings case, and that he should moi
req uire persons summoned IN his court
as jurors TO take il.
Yesterday Mr.. Jewett, member of the
Judiciary Committee of the Missouri
House OF Representatives, introduced
a resolution citing the decision of Judge
Moody and asking the judiciary Com
mittee to inquire If said decision was
delivered in open court, and whether
the Judge allowed jurors to serve with
