WOULD AMEND MEASURE.
Senator Kellogg Proposes Changes
in Municipal Court Bill.

Senator Kellogg, chairman of the
judiciary subcommittee which is
handling the bill to enlarge the
jurisdiction of the Municipal Court
of the District of Columbia, has pre-
pared several amendments and sub
mitted them to the Senate to iron
out controverted points.
The first amendment reduces the
amounts in civil cases over which
the Municipal Court may have juris-
diction from $4,000 to $1,000. Under
existing law $500 is the limit, but
the bill as it passed the House fixed
the limit at $4,000.
Section IL of the bill, which pro-
vides that no appeal shall lie here
after from the Municipal Court to the
supreme Court Of the District, but
to the Court of Appeals, Senator Kel-
1ogg proposes to strike out and to
insert a substitute which, while pro-
viding that no appeal shall lie from
the Municipal Court to the Supreme
Court. would place limitations upon
appeals to the Court Of Appeals.
