with reckless driving in 1929 and that
the requirements Of trial by jury in
such cases would seriously impede the
effective administration Of this and
similar laws.
Colts Fights Case.
The question is being tested in the
case of William H. Colts, who was
charged with reckless driving year
ago. After being denied trial by jury
in Police Court, he was convicted, but
took the case 70 the District Court of
Appeals, which decided in mis- favor
and reversed the Police Court.
In asking the United States Supreme
Court to review the case the District
argued that the Court of Appeals erred
in holding that the man was entitled to
a Jury trial and also in holding that
reckless driving is not a petty ofense
within the meaning of the Constitution.
The traffic law provided for trial by
Jury in cases for which the penalty
might be more than $500 or more than
80 days. In other cases the trials were
to be by the court, except where the
accused would be entitled to jury trial
under the Constitution. The penalty for
the first offenSe of reckless driving was

Punishment Limits Doubled.
In their brief, counsel for Colts ques-
toned the power of Congress to fix ar
bitrary limits of puniShments as the
test for determining the right Of trial
by Jury. They argued that II Congress
could fix 80 days as the line at which
jury trials begin, there would be moth
ing to prevent Congress from saying
that up to six months or a year there
should be no Jury trial.
The brief for the District was filed
by Corporation Counsel Bride and his

side was prepared by attorneys VIII
