A Move To Expedite Court Business

n ENAT0R HENRY F. ASHURST Of Arizona has OBJ
~ tanned quick action his to establish an
- other federal court in Arizona. The suggestion was
made only recently and already the senator has had his
bill passed by the senate With this good start the new
court may be considered almost good established
The principal benefit is not merely to relieve Arizonas
overworked federal judge W. H. Sawtee but to ex-
pede the courts business in the interest of the public and
to effect saving of time and money 1t is estimated that
the saving of money paid out for caring for prisoners
periods of months until the court consider their
would far toward paying the cost of another court
For instance the court bor through session at Tucson
and goes thence Globe Prisoners have been accumuang
Globe Phoenix and Prescott while the court has been in
session Tucson They will have been held at the govern
ments expense long time before the court reaches Phoe
nix Prescott and by the time the Prescott docket has
been cleared it is found that number of prisoners have
been held long time at Tucson
The saving travelling expense for the judge officers
of the and witnesses will be very important item
1t is 200 miles from Tucson to Globe and 4s7 miles from
Globe to By dividing the state into two dis
cts with holding sessions at Tucson and Globe
and the other at Phoenix and Prescott court business viii
be greatly expedited long dockets cleared and the total
cost TO the government made little if any greater than it
is at present.
