WOULD PREVENT JUDGES
 DICTATING JURIES YERDICTS

WASHINGTON, Jan SO.-Dicta- ton by federal judges of juries' yer diets would be prevented under the terms of a bill Representative Dyer of Missouri has prepared, he says.
 Procedure rules now permit judges to make stump speeches from the bench, practically decide cases and dictate what verdicts juries shall bring in," said Dyer. "So much lati- tude is allowed in their instructions that they sometimes usurp the func- tions of the jury. l shall urge law to require them to give their juries instructions in writing and to not inn properly influence them.
 "A poor man now has difficulty, al- so, in using the federal judiciary. be- cause of technicalities it is almost impossible for him to litigate. The federal judiciary should be made more popular and accessible to the poor man."

1T HAPPENED IN READING

s. s. Wiser of Reading, Pa, last
summer made himself rustic table
using the limbs of a willow tree TO,
the legs. When he went out into his
yard the last warm spell he found
that the legs had sprouted, that buds
were beginning to show and that
roots had formed where the feet of
the table entered the ground. Mr.
Wiser did not dig up the table and
carry the pieces around to curious
friends at the cigar store. No. sir.
ne IS man of sense. He is letting
the table grow. There hardly will he
anything doing this fall, but in a few
years why should he not go out into
ms back yard and pick off nice ripe
dining table from the tree? What is
to prevent him from picking a fine
billiard table to while away the long
winter evenings? Even before fall
there probably will be a few little
Kitchen tables, or perhaps a small fan
cy table or two, just the thing to fill |
out odd corners in the parlor. There
is nothing like having table tree in
ones own back yard. But they can't
be grown everywhere. There is some
thing about the soil of southeastern
pennsylvania which gives that section
practical monopoly on the table tree
and other kindred industries. al
south Bethlehem manufacturer sent
,ver for sample of soil from Mr..
Nlsser's back yard the other day, but
when the Reading man learned that
he man intended to set out a few
artridges in the soil and cultivate a
OF ammunition plants he refused to
ct the soil be taken away. Mr.. Wis
er is strictly neutral.
