TO ASK TRANSFER
OF POLICE COURT
Southside People Would Like
Money Spent on Criminals to
BE Put to Better Use.

Resolutions asking for the abolition
OF the Police Court on the Southside
Will BIO offered on Friday night ut the
regular meeting Of the South Richmond
Democratic Club. This step Will be
taken because II is believed TINT such
IN institution Is no longer needed on
tn" Southside. and that the money now
appropriated for It's maintenance could
be spent to much better advantage on
the streets or other public improve
mcnts
The COURT known ms Police Court
Fart H., was created at the time of an
heSation. and has Jurisdiction over
crimes ana miSdemcanorS committed on
tho south side of tho James only. IL is
presided over by Justice Henry a. Maui
rice. former Mayor of Manchester who
was recently reelected for a new term
or four years by the City Council
IL Is not proposed to wipe the court
out OF existence, but simply to remove
IL elsewhere There arc n number of
prominent officials who now think that
Justice Cru;chfield could work to bet
ter advantage If some of tho congestion
III his court was relieved. and that an
other court III tho same building would
he solution of the problem. The two
courts could have concurrent jurisdic-
tion and considerable time would be
saved for Witnesses and attorneys, who
arc now forced to walt through Ionu
and tedious dockets.
There would DO no loss to Justice
Maurice by the transfer of the court
and II is not believed that the majority
OF the people OF South Richmond de-
sire Police Court. The South Rich
mond Democratic Club lis composed Of
several hundred voters and business
men. and It's approval or disapproval
viii be taken by the patrons of the
resolution az the sentiment of tho ma
jority OF the Southsidcrs.
The Police Court removal proposition
Is separate and distinct from the effort
made before the General Assembly to
chanEc the Jurisdiction of the Hastings
Court. Part III. The latter Is a court of
record. and TO move IT. or to give il
additional quarters In the CITY Hall
Tor the trial OF cases arising on the
Northside. would nccessltate the keen
ing OF two records, and would be n
great Inconvenience. The civic orrani-
cations of tho Southside are Unanimous
In opposition to any tampering with
