ROCKVILLE. Md, January :, 1913.
John A. Garrett. attorney to the
board of county commissioners, who
was. at the meeting of the commits
siOners last week, directed to make
an investigation Of everything in con-
nection with the recent wholesale ar
rests of Washington autoists at Chevy
Chase, this county. today submitted his
report to the commissioners.
Attorney Garrett found that thirty
eight persons were arrested by Con-
stable Walter =. Shaw. twenty-four of
whom were required by Justice of the
Peace Roscoe NJ. Roach, who accom-
panied Shaw. to deposit collateral for
their appearance at Glen Echo for trial
before Roach. The other fourteen were
released on their personal rccogni1ance.
Only one of the thirty-eight appeared
for trial, and he was adjudged guilty
and was fined one dollar and costs.
The total amount of collateral collect
cd by Justice Roach was SEQ. which.
less costs, has been sent to the state
motor vehicle commissioner.
According to the report, large ma
jority of the arrests were for trivial Of
lenses, but the charge in each case was
a direct violation of the automobile stat
ute. In this connection, Attorney Gar
rett suggests that better judgment and
little diplomacy would have attained
better results and engendered less strife.

Aware of Persecution.

II am aware, says the attorney in his
report, that automobilfsts are to a
great extent prosecuted wantonly and are
frequently victims of prosecutions by GER
tain petty officials who prey upon them
for the sake of fees. a system in TINS
county and state, which should be speed
lily corrected.
The report declares that no doubt exists
as to Shaws authority to make the ar
rests. He was the only constable in
Bethesda district when the arrests were
made, and ut was not only his right. but
his duty to exercise jurisdiction upon the
particular highway"
In regard to the control of the county
commissioners over the constables. the
report says:
"This board has only the power of APP
pointment of constables and does not
have any authority to suspend. dismiss.
renounce or discharge any constable after
he has been duly appointed. bonded and
qualified for the term for which he has
been appointed. The power of removal
rests entirely with the circuit court, and
then only after q constable has been in
dicted by the grand jury and convicted
of malfeasance in office ! am unable
to find any evidence to warrant such pro-
cedure in the case under consideration.
and if there is any 1T should be referred
to the states attorney for action.
THE present law should be changed so
that this board would be given the au-
thority to control the actions of con-
and duties, and they should be at all
times under the guidance and direction of
the board which they are not at this
time
Attorney Garrett is of the opinion that
Justice of the Peace Roach exceeded his
authority somewhat. AS the arrests were
made on Sunday. which prevented imme-
date trials, the justice required collateral
to be deposited for the appearance Of the
defendants before him. Justice Roach
should have held them for the action of
the police justice, as the other justices
of the peace have, under the law, no legal
authority to impose a fine for any viola
ton of the automobile law.
Justice Roach, however. exercised more
clemency in these cases than the law
permitted. He Is authorized to accept as
collateral only the amount named as the
maximum fine, which is $50. whereas he
required each person to deposit but So.
THE harsh and untruthful reports and
the denunciation of the officials of this
county and state have been to a great ex-
tent unwarranted and have been circu-
lated to the detriment of the county and
it's officers declares the report. 'Those
who are crying for a square deal in these
matters are not fair themselves and go
to extremes in their desire for vengeance
by the circulation and publication of abb
solutely false reports.
