THE LAWS DELAY I

Judge Taft's remark before the CHI
cayo Chamber of Commerce that the
DELAYS in the administration of justice
and "thc inequality between the poor
and the rich" need reform more that'
any other existing wrong. is the frank
admission by Il trained jurist OF what
the average man has long believed or
suspected; that the laws delay IS the
practical failure of justice,
Tn consequence OF the failure of the
courts to bring litigation to a timely
end. only The wealthy can AFFORD, J, ~
many instances, to appeal to the law.
Thus does the favorite American doc
trine, that all men are equal5before the
law, turn out to be only theoreticai
truth In practice there is inequality
before the law, for failure of prompt
Justice is often the worst kind of IN
justice.

Jurisprudence Of New York is praised;
as system by the most acute minds
in this learned profession.
The delay is less marked in the case
of the federal courts SO that this Is
more of State than 1t Is a national
issue, though it pertains to the spheres
of both. 1t is said that in all of Eng
land there are fewer judges than IN
New York county. and yet these Eng
|Slish Judges dispose Of their calendars. Z!
It is the lawyers and the courts them
selves that have built up, place by
piece. those practices which are re-
sponsible for the interminable delays
OF the law. 1t Is notorious that when
wealthy individuals or corporations are
brought into litigation, no Difficulty y
being experienced in paying lawyers
bills and court costs. in taking success
sive appeals, in arguing dilatory mo
tons. in prolonging trials and IN clog
ging court calendars. the most usual
plan is to rely on dlatory pleas to
wear out the endurance of those OPP
posed to them.
After all, is not the proposition TO
make justice free In certain civil cases
worthy of serious considerations?
According to the theory of our law
and the theory itself is true-litigatlon

refuge from violence, oppression, and
fraud: because the substitution of the
findings OF impartial tribunals for the
physical strength of disputants as In
earlier days or the personal opinion OF
the judges, as in most of the countries
OF Europe. is one Of the greatest ac-
QUESTIONS Of civilization.
Our rules and science of law are good
enough; but the delays destroy that
equality before the law which Is the
