Legislatures viii Be Urged to Make
the Required Changes At Its
Next Session.

The special committee Of the Mis-
souri, Bar Association on legislation
and remedial procedure met in the
senate chamber at Jefferson City re.
Gently, taking up matters Of great i'm.
portance to the legal profession.
The principal discussion conferred
about the question Of uniformity Of
legislation. it being found that only
IN the case Of negotiable instruments
is there found extensive uniformity
throughout the United States.
Consideration of revision Of the law
affecting disbarment Of attorneys for
malpractice brought out a suggestion,
favorably considered, that a commit
tee removed from all local influences
akin to the examining board Of attor-
neys. or such as that regulating the
practice of medicine, might be advis-
able.
Shortening the time Of estates in
probate matters and the making of re-
ports of sales of real estate in minors
estates, were discussed and will be
recommended.
Delegating to the supreme court the
power to make rules of procedure was
considered. The question Of consti-
tutionality of delegation Of this power
is being examined by the committee.
1t was the general opinion that re-
vision must be made to bring greater
expedition in trials and speedier dis
posal of cases. There was discussion
as to the advisability of every Judge
reporting at the end Of every year,
every case he had had under advise
ment and the time Of disposition. I'm
