Lower Collateral Deposits for
Minor Offenses

It now looks az if there may be system Of
lower collateral deposits for minor offenders OF local laws
and regulations measure OF relieving congestion IN the
police courts
such recommendation has been made District Com
missioners by committee Of District officials appointed to
consider police court and other conditions.
has long been apparent to everybody that the methods Of
the Washington police department and prosecuting officials
in the handling Of minor ofenses against traffic and parking
regulations too rigid and brought about conditions Of
fensive to responsible citizens
In point may be mentioned charges fkOverme parking
In the enforcement Of this regulation many thousands Of
Washngtonans have been subjected to injustice through
system of high collateral deposits
The judges Of the Police Court seldom impose fine Of
than So for overtime parking yet the police and prose-
cutting authorities have uniformly required collateral deposit Of
S. offenders This has had the effect Of forcing large
number Of citizens to TO the conested police court building
stand trial S. though in doing they have lost
much time and failed to retain friendly feeling for the police
department
violation may several times repeated the offender
Then why compel collateral Of So? In way it is simply
picking Che pockets Of citizens whose business prevents them
going to court protect themselves against the loss Of S.
does not make for cordial friendly relations between the
public and the police.
There other minor violations in which the unfair
policy has been followed.
The worst criticism Of police department policies this
of putting an immense amount of police time in small
offenders while criminals getting away with most any
thing.
Policemen should be instructed recommended by the
mtee to be tolerant to minor traffic violations using
discretion than has been allowed them in the past
keeping in mind of course those who make business to
violate traffic laws with IMMUNITY.
Even Congress gives Washington police court
building which is badly needed and additional police court
judges and prosecuting officials recommended there is
system which compe citizens
their time in court for petty violations which do threaten
human lives property damage.
Laws and police departments were not made to harass
sporsibe awabding citizens They protect such ci
xens and to safeguard them against annoyances
For serious violations Of traffic other laws the collateral
deposits required should be well above the average fines i'm
posed for such ofenses in the courts The dangerous
should be compelled to appear for trial and given all the
worry possible He should be made example of for the
good of the community and a warning to others.
Nothing will be gained by the police department in perse
cutting minor offenders Policemen need the good will of

RAYS OF MOON

A LITTLE while ago we were
n speaking here Of the aIlur-
ing subject of moonlight. What
follows may be regarded az a
supplement to that discussion. 1t
has long been known that the
light of the moon is to q con.
siderable degree polarized. This
arises from the fact that it Is re.
Elected light, originating In the
sun and given off second.handed
by the moon. BY virtue of the
reflection part of the light be-
comes polarized. The rays thus
affected are those which meet
the moons surface. at a particu-
lar angle.
Now, polarized light the mean
ing of which we will briefly ex-
plain a little farther on) looks no
different after its polarization
than before, but it behaves pc.
culiarly in certain experiments,
and lately it has been found to
have surprising physical and
physiological effects-which is the
reason for our referring again
to the subject of moonlight.
The discovery was announced at
a meeting of the American Chem
ical Society by DR.. David l.
Macht, of Johns Hopkins Uni
verSity. He has found, verifying
a previous observation of Miss
Elizabeth Semmena in England,
