WHILE THE present system OF drawing
juries has worked bene6cially in many
localities, there is general opinion in
this neighborhood that the law on the
subject might be amended SO as to make
q marked improvement in the system
There is no desire to abolish the jury COM
mission. That is all right. Where there
seems to be chance for change is in
the matter of selection of grand jurors
The law requires a long list of ''eligibles"
TO be posted in the Office of the County
Clerk and from that list there are drawn
by lot "a names of gentlemen who will
be called on to serve. This is done in open
court and the names are published in the
newspapers, SO that the secrecy of the
grand jury isremoved. In this instance,
at least, there might be different pro-
cedure. The commissioners might be al
lowed to select the grand juries, keeping
the names private until read in court on
the opening day. This would serve
double purpose, for, in addition to the
privacy. the commission would be allow
ed to accord representation to different
parts OF the county, something that can
not be assured now. In the panel select
ed Tuesday seven localities furnish two
thirds Of the number. With the comis-
sion being given discretionary power
there would have been better represen-
ation and the character and standing of
the jurors would not suffer. While this
might not apply to every county in the
state it would apply to this county
There is one thing in this connection,
however, that we think is open to crit
icism, and that is placing so many
members of the bar on the eligible list"
with possibility of their being drawn.
On the list which was before the court
Tuesday the names of l9lawyers appear
ed. Only two were drawn but there was
q chance for the other IL to be called.
There is no real necessity for lawyer on
the grand jury. The Prosecutor of the
Pleas is within call at all times, if not in |
the room, and can give all legal advice |
that may be desired. There is pos
slplilty OF lawyer not being a dis |
interested member of the grand jury.
lie may be retained to defend some one
whose case is to be considered, or he NAV

may be presented to the grand inquest.
While 1t is not fair to say that the law

surrogate and the Probation officer. on
the eligible list" is not good taste.
This criticism does not come entirely
rom the editor of this paper, but it is
IN opinion that has been expressed by
several citizens.

MOVE TO SQUELCH THE
LONG SPEECH MAKERS
GAG FOR SENSATIONALISTS WHO
CONSUME TIME OF
LEGISLATURE.
Western Newspaper Union New, Service.

western Newspaper Union News Service
Baton Rouge.-A determined effort
to squelch the speech makers and the
sensationalists who consume hours of
legislative time at the outset of bust
ness is being made in the Legisla-
lure. The movement will have the
sympathy of the administration, it is
said. The House, during the second
week, almost degenerated into an end
less squabble, delaying legislation of
prime Importance. Sentiment against
that kind of time killing was growing
Friday, and with little organization
1t can be turned into an effective ma
chine for the suppression of that
rather costly nuisance.
The two biggest problems this Legis-
lature has to solve it has not yet Sc
riously undertaken.
The first is to make the very mea-
ger revenues of the next two wears
meet the needs of the State institu.
tons and departments. To those who
have given a little study to this prob
lem it looks like the Legislature is
between bond issue on one hand
and crippled State activities on the
other.
The second problem is that of some
reform of the States fiscal system, so
as to better equalize the burden of tax
alton throughout the state, and at the
same time bring about an Increase IN
the states resources. The annual reve-
nues under the present scheme of !
things are approximately 1000 900 a
year short of what is necessary tc
properly maintain all of the govern
mental activities now demanded of the
state by its citizens. This estimate is
based on a cerful calculation.

ADMINISTRATION
REFORM PLANS
ASSESSMENT REVISION PROvID-
ED BY r. B. BUTLER'S PRO-
POSED ACT.
Western Newspaper Union News Service.

western Newspaper Union News Service
Baton Rouge, lathe administra-
ton program of assessment reform
was introduced in the house by Rep
resentative r. B. Butler of Terre-
bonne. 1t consist of two constitution
al amendments and three legislative
acts. One amendment is to Article
225 of the constitution and the other
to Article 226. One act abolishes the
State Board of Appraisers. Another
act gives local authorities power to
fix the basis for local assessments.
The third is the enabling act to make
effective the new scheme of taxation
proposed by the constitutional amend
ment.
A state tax commission to handle
state assessments and taxation and
separate state and local assessments
is the crux of the new plan. No sala-
ries are prescribed in the act intro
duced. This will be left to the house
to determine.
The general scheme proposed the
administration stands behind. AS to
minor details. there is no pride Of
opinion. The aim sought is relief
from the present unfair and made
quate system.

LOUISIANA wins TAP

TRUNK LINE RAILROAD MUST

Washington.-The Federal Supreme
Court decided the tap line cases in
favor of Louisiana and the tap lines.
The decision means much to parts of
the country other than Louisiana. II
means that the trunk line railroads of
the country must pay out at least
$4,000 900, which, until Associate JUS
tice Day read his opinion. there was
reason to believe they would be allow
ed to keep in their treasures.
The trunk lines in Louisiana, Missis-

must pay over to the tap lines. owned

those states, about s10,OOO,OOO, which
Is the sum they have kept away from
the tap lines during the period since
the commission made its decision that
the tap lines are mere plant facilities
and. as 10 lumber and logs produced
by the lumber companies that own
them, common carriers entitled to
participate in the division of through
rates.
IL is considered a big victory for AS

whose efforts are due the orders on
which the cases were taken to the
courts, and to Luther Walter, attorney
for Louisiana in the Shreveport case
