MAKES PLEA FOR
ETHICS OF BAR
IN THIS STATE
President Hills Address to
Members of the State Bar
Association

The State Bar association of Con-
necticut held it's annual meeting yes
terday afternoon at the county court
house in this city and reelected Of
f1cers as outlined in The Farmer last
evening.
The association adopted several res
olutions amending forms of practice
IN the Superior and Supreme courts
and also recommended the appoint
ment of city court judges in the same
manner that judges of the Common
pleas are selected. This would give
the Governor the appointment of 1853
additional judges.
The committee appointed to inves-
tlgate the question as to the expense
and delay of the law, and whether or
not poor litigants are placed at a dis
advantage, by expense and delay, re-
ported in the negative, but suggested
some slight changes in court proce-
duce.
President George d. Hill, who was
reelected at yesterdays session, ad-
dressed the meeting and made
strong plea for the safeguarding of
the ethics of the legal profession.
He reviewed the work of the asso-
citation in formulating a code of ethics
laying down broad lines of guidance
for professional conduct. He showed
what splendid accomplishment this
has proved to be The speaker then
suggested one addition to the code
the providing Of a more detailed rec
onmendation regarding contingent
fees. The real or apparent abuse of
the contingent fee idea brings more
lawyers before the grievance commit
tee than any other violation Of profess
sional ethics. he stated.
Another matter to which he called
attention is the present method of
nearing such cases-before local coun-
ty grievance committees. The work
of these grievance committees, said
Attorney Hill, is made delicate and
difficult by the fact that the mem
bers of the committee are called up
on to sit as judges always upon some
member Of their own legal household
that is a lawyer practicing in the
same county courts. The speaker sug-
gested that it might be better idea
to have the offenders of one county
appear before the grievance commit
tee of another county; and further
more suggested that a. definite line of
procedure should be laid down for the
various grievance committees of the
State.
In concluding his address, President
Hill reviewed a number of important
decisions which have set precedents
in this State.

FIFTH DAY OF
CHAUTAuQUA A
GREAT SUCCESS
Lectures Brilliant, Although
Stormy Weather Kept Down
Attendance Somewhat

Another delightful series of lectures
marked the fifth day of Bridgeport's
midwinter Chautauqua assembly yes
terday. The speakers of the day were
DR.. S. Parkes Cadman and DR.. Ward
Beecher Pickard. both of whom are
scholars of high reputation and &C
complished orators.
Presiding the lectures and in inter-
walls between the various speakers, the
Aida quartet of instrumentalists rem
dered a number Of delightful selec-
tions.
Owing to the stormy weather of
last evening the attendance was not
as large as at some of the other even
Ing lectures. but a fair-sized crowd
turned out to hear DR.. Cadman speak
upon THE Modern Babylon
Proud to Be American.
When DR.. Cadman was introduced
he was introduced as a native of Eng
land and in opening his address said
he wished his wife could hear him in
troduced some time when he is to
make public address. 1t is true he
was not a native American, he said,
and he then told q story illustrating
how fortunate q man is who is free to
do something which ought not to be
done and chooses to do something else.
He said of all of our Americans of the
present day only about one-half are
born here and that the future of this
great country is in the hands of people
born in other countries. He said: 81
am proud to be an American citizen;
one does not have to hate his mother
to love his wife" 1--WE sometimes do
get something good from England"
One of the problems of the century
he said, is the growth Of the modern
city, and he told of his impressions

OLEOMARGARINE DEALERS
MUST PAY FINE

AS the result of action initiated by
the department of the State Dairy
and Food Commissioner in an attempt
to stamp out all illegal sales of oleo-
margarine throughout this State, Ger
vais Brothers, doing business on South
Main street, Waterbury, were taken
before Judge Patrick J. Mcmahon in
the city court of Waterbury Friday
on one count. and fined $100 and costs
of $12.25. Gervais Brothers, who were
UP on third offense charge, pleaded
guilty and paid. John F. McGrath
was prosecuting attorney. This is the
last but one of the prosecutions fol-
lowing the recent probe of the depart
ment into violations of oelomargarine
laws. The case was taken care of by
Tyler Cruttenden, deputy dairy and
food commissioner. Another case is
to be tried later.
Gervais Brothers were liable to
fine of 5000 or to imprisonment for
not over six months. There are no
more oleomargarine dealers in this
state now than there were last year at
this time. However. violations of the
law are more frequent, a condition at
tributable to the high cost of butter.
