Majority Jury votes.

To the Editor of the Evening Star:
The subject is not a new one, but one
of those that has a way of forcing
itself to the front persistently. 1t is
this: Why should it not be legal to
have a majority vote of a jury decide
a mans fate in court? For reasons Of
my own l have followed the reports or
court cases in the STAR and frequently
read about the disagreement of %juries.
Then I have learned about the Job

who knew he was right. The result
of the system is delay, expense and,
above all. injustice to a degree more
startling than the average citizen is
aware of. Why not make the majority

Broad street below the junction with

condition as soon as a thaw sets in.
There are huge puddles of mud and

ton of the snow piles.
We must admit, of course. that this
winter has been the toughest for many

Why the. State Board of Health has
never taken any interest in the sani-
tary aspects of cold storage is a per-
tinentesquestion. The cold storage of
fish is a matter that calls for the close
attention of the board. The best au-
thority has declared that fish left to
die without killing is unfit to go into
cold storage, and that freezing does
not eliminate the poisonous germs that
exist. Some years ago when cold stor-
age began wholesalers were questioned
about removing the entrails from fish
before storing them. The answer was
that the process would cost too much.
and that without the entrails the fish
would weigh less. So all fish in cold
storage contain the entrails and the
consumer pays high fish prices for the
same and in many cases is poisoned
by what he buys.

the inexperience and unitness of the
attendants employed in the State Hos
pital for the Insane at Trenton n
shows that in the hospital system there
is no right supervision of these at
tendants, who can do pretty much as
they please. Most of them are of eX-
IRENE youth and were taken into en-
ployment without any previous knowl-
edge or experience. The pay allowed
by the State is small and hence CONF
petent and trustworthy men cannot be
hired. The. fault, therefore, lies with
the State, Hospital managers must
take what they can get in hiring at
tendants and they get what is not
worth paying for, and, what is worse,
they get men who neglect and abuse
helpless patients. But of such is the
charity of a State when it is doled out
unwillingly, while the State is building

WOMAN MAY KILL
RACING IN FLORIDA
Row Between HOrSeman'S Wife
and Track Officials Likely to
Test Betting Law
BY ]. R. JEFFERY
Special Dispatch 10 The Cali

CHICAGO, March S.-Racing in Flor
ida is in peril as a result of the action
of Curly" Brown and his associates
in the management of the Jacksonville
track in causing the arrest of Mrs.
Laura Gilmore, wife of a horse owner
and trainer now racing there on a
charge of criminal libel.
Inconsistent running of one of Gill
more's horses led to trouble between
the woman and the track management.
Mrs. Gilmore then had printed and cir
culated pamphlets attacking the track
officials. Her arrest followed.
At the preliminary hearing of the
case today the woman's attorney at
tackled the constitutionality of the law
under which racing is iourishing in
Florida and maintained that the proyi-
sion of the law permitting pool selling
could not be interpreted to mean book
making.
The Florida law permits fair associa- :
tions to sell pools between November
/ and May l of each year, but makes
it crime, with heavy penalties at
tached for individuals to do SO.
Mrs Gilmores lawyer admitted that
the woman had issued the circular and
based the defense entirely on the con-
tention that such an act is not libel
when directed toward any business that
is illegal.
Mrs Gilmore has been held for trial
at the May term of the criminal court,
when the whole matter will be hotly
fought out.
If the contention of the defense
should be upheld book making may
have to be abandoned in Florida, but
racing might continue under the pari
mutuel system.
Phil Mohr is the only horse racing
in California this winter that remains
eligible to enter the coming renewal
of the Kentucky derby He is one of
the 2S entries for which second pay
ments have just been made.
