URGES EARLY HEARING
Of THE NEWMAN CASE
Justice Gould Expresses Belief That
There Should Be No Unneces-
sary Delay.

Remarking that II Oliver P. Newman.
president of the board of District Com
missioners. is not entitled to hold office
he ought not to do so. and if he is en-
titled he should want to know it as soon
as possible Justice Anderson of the Dis
trict Supreme Court today granted a mo-
ton to advance for trial the custer pro-
ceedings instituted by William ]. Friz-
zell, a taxpayer, to test the eligibility
of Mr.. Newman.
Justice Anderson however, declined to
set date for the trial before the sum-
mer recess as he announced his intention
not to preside at the Newman trial. The
justice passed on the legal questions in
volved, but did not assign this as his
reason for not hearing the matter:
The justice promised to confer with his
ing to preside. he would direct that a
trial be held before the summer recess of
the court.
May Go to Justice Gould.
After the conference 1t was announced
that Justice Gould had been asked to
take the case and that he had the matter
under consideration.
Attorneys Ralston & Richardson. for
Mr.. Newman. opposed the motion to ad-
vance the case, insisting that 1t should
take its place on the regular trial cal
endar. The average case takes about
eighteen months to be heard after being
placed on the calendar. Mr.. Ralston also
urged that no particular public interest
requires the hurrying of this case to
trial.
He pointed out that the interest of no
| one is being affected adversely while Mr..
Newman holds the Office.
The lawyer also announced that Mr..
Newman would wish to secure testimony
from Chicago, which would delay the
trial He also suggested that the plead
ings are not in such form as to submit
the matter to a jury.
Bailey Criticises Delay.
Former Senator Bailey, for Mr.. Friz-
zell, urged that the public interest de-
| mands a speedy trial. He pointed out
that the highest Office In the District of
Columbia is involved. and suggested that
| Mr.. Newman ought to desire a prompt
| disposition of the matter. The former
| senator criticised the delays already in
the case and remarked that nearly a
year had already passed since the filing
| of the petition last September.
| The case could be tried in one day. said
Senator Bailey. as the only question to
! be decided is the actual residence of
| the Commissioner within the District OF
Columbia for the three years preceding
| his appointment
"r'or my part" he concluded. II should
| be willing to try the case on the testl-
mony of Mr.. Newman before the Senate
