 Justices Receive Notices
 Questionnaires and notices have been received by the local justices Of the peace from George W, Wheeler. chief justice of tho Con- necticut supreme court, adv.si, them that the state laws forbid them to suspend judgment In cases tried before them or to place de- fendants on probation They are re- quested to check up on the disposi- tion of all cases tried by them dur ing 1926 and 1927 and report to Hartford.
 This ruling means that defendants brought before justice courts must either be found guilty or discha rsed as the court cannot exercise leniency even in the face of the most extenu- ating circumstances. This is expect ed to give impetus to the movement for the establishment of a town court in Plainville, as this would be able to dispose of all cases as it saw fit and exercise leniency where jus tlfied.
