 .Hopse bill 3si, introduced by me, ex- tended the jurisdiction of the Birming- ham court of common pleas over Greater Birmingham, except Precincts 40 and oz QInsley and Wylam), changed the name of the court to that of the municipal court of Birmin gham, added another Judse thereto. and conferred upon 1t lurisdlc-. ton over misdemeanors. Had the pil' passed with this criminal Jurisdlction feature it would have taken away 1ees from some of the beneficiaries Of the Tee system. Because of this feature, fee re- cipents lad that provision assassinated' and although the bill passed both houses, its very heart was pierced in the passage.
 My sincere belief is that the adoption of these suggestions into laws Will im- rpeasurably relieve conditions in this county It will obviate the necessity for new jail The erection of a new jail in this county would be but alarm-clock relief It would be continuance of the ruinous policy of treating effects rather than annihilating causes. Place every officer in this county on salary basis, as speedily as the law permits, and you will be removing the underlying cause or the overcrowdedness of the jail.
 "The last report of the state prison 1n- spectcr shows that the state paid the sheriff of this county $37. 6sS. 30 for feeding prisoners during the year 1914. This Is glarinG example of the viciousness of the system.
 "In seeking to rectify these evils the comm isslon will be hampered by the of- flee holding bossocracy.
 Method of Selecting Judges
 "The present method of selecting judges works lamentable harm to the judiciary. Under the elective system we have drawn to the bench men of inferior ability.
 "Somc scheme must be devised whereby more competent lawyers will enter the fleid for judicial honors.
 T direct your particular attention to
The Birmingham age-herald., 1915-03-14
sections 3 and of the consolidated court

sections and of the consolidated court bill. which provide for the nomination of judges by the bar of Jefferson county. Under section 4 you will observe that no name for judgeship can be placed upon the ticket without that name having first been ordered placed thereon by the bar. This method occurs to me as exceed ingly wise. I believe that under it we would enlist the services of some of the ablest men at the bar. Nomination by the bar should be tantamount to an e1ec- tion The bar, and not the candidate. should conduct the campaign before the people. This would eliminate that repul- sive and distasteful electioneering which candidates must, to a degree, necessarily indulge in.
 'Unless more competent judges are pro- vided, the doctrine of the recall of Judges will continue to gain popularity, and in- stead of the judiciary being stable 1t will be uncertain.
 Procedure
 "Our complicated system of procedure is justice-trap. It has tended to ere ate the sentiment in the public mind that courts are not temples wherein justice is dispensed, but dens wherein justice is dispensed with. Courts should be instru- mentalities of justice and not havens for the maintenance and perpetuation of tech- nicalities
 ''Our procedure must be simplified Pleading should consist of but simple statement of the cause of action, and an answer couched in simple language. setting up the real defense.
 "After all. the purpose of pleading Is to arrive at an issue. This issue should be ascertained as speedily and simply and inexpensively as possible. Justice must be rescued from the labyrinth of techni- calities.
 Tt occurs to me that the wisest and sanest way of correcting our procedure would be to lodge the power to do so with the supreme court. It would take many months to formulate a new sys-

 "Whenever a new rule was found to be wrong the supreme court could change it. If legislative enactment was neces- sary four years might be awaited before correction could be had. New Constitution Some of the suggestions herein pro- posed involve constitutional revision. This committee, in it's undertaking to i efficientize the judiciary of the state, will be perennially hampered and cir cumscribed by our restrictive constitu- tion, which hobbies any real effort at reform. No fundamental change can be effected in this state without amending the constitution, and so many changes are imperative that a new constitution is inevitable.
 Many constitutional amendments have been proposed but this legislature should discountenance patchwork. A shinglc here and there will not suffice: only q complete new roof will provide ample protection. To avail ourselves of the new order, a new constitution Is impe- rious. No amendment or amendments could supply a modern standard. Our constitution must inhale more deeply tho gospel of freedom. A new constitution will accelerate the public ownership of politics.
 We have grown. We are growing. But the constitution has not grown. It Is not growing. We have outgrown it.; 1t does not fit. It Is not adapted to this generation; it will be less adaptable to the next.
