COUNTY JURY
PLANSAID NOT
SATISFACTORY
Sherard Reported to Indi-
cate l2-Man Juries Will
Now Be Provided
HELD VITAL MATTER
BY LOCAL LAWYERS

In resolution adopted at a meet
ing yesterday afternoon the Hen
derson County Bar association
recommended either the passage
of the 12-man jury bill for the
county recorders court or the abb
clifton of trial by Jury IN the
court altogether.
The bar took action in the form
of a resolution yesterday after
bill providing for a l2-man jury
instead of a siX-man jury in the
court had been returned by Rep
resentative w. M. Sherard with
the remark that he was not in
Producing it on account of re-
quest not to from T. l.. Durham,
chairman of the county commits
sioners. Mr.. Durham, he said, had
declared in conference that it
would mean additional expense to
the county.
The bar yesterday resolved that
the present Jury system is unsat-
isfactory, and that same ought to
be improved by the bill previous
" approved, with certain amend
taents, or that the jury system
Ought to be abolished altogether.
The amendment to the first
bill would provide that the re-
corder be allowed to send such
cases to the superior court as he
NAV not care tO trV
The resolution was passed by
a majority of the bar and signed
by C. F. Toms, as president, and
o. B. Crowell, as secretary.
1t was understood here this
that Representative Sher-
ard had been in communication
with people here since the bill
was returned, and that he had
indicated that the l2-man jury
bill would be passed as endorsed
by the bar.
The resolution adopted yester-
day was as follows:
"Whereas, the Henderson Coun-
ty Bar association in an effort to
improve Jury trials in the record
er's court did approve special
act to be introduced in the leg
islature to provide for a jury OF
~ men to be drawn from the
taxpayers Of the county, and
whereas, the Henderson county
representative in the legislature
has sought the further advice OF
the Bar association after the re-
fusal of the county commission
ers to approve the act, and
whereas. the Bar association be.
lieves that the improvement OF
the Jury system in the recorders
court is a matter of vital con-
Germ to the county and necessary
for better law enforcement,
"Now therefore, be it resolved,
bv the Henderson County Bar as
ISOLATION that the present jury
system of the recorders court is
highly unsatisfactory and the
same ought to be improved at the
earliest possible moment by the
enactment of the bill heretofore
enlarged to contain
provision permitting the recorder
to send such cases to the super
Tor court as he may not care to
try and the Bar association rec

HoOvER's INDICTMENT

The weight attached to this pafs of the indictment in Republican quarters is evidenced by the prom thence given it by Mir. Hoover in tho keynote address he recently delivered at Oakland.
 After suggesting that the Demo crats would have boiled far fewe: votes three years ago if they had disclosed their intent to increase ex- penditures, maintain a deficit and increase the number of Government employees, the former President con tinued:
 They would have lost still more votes had they informed us that they would abandon the gold standard that they would devalue the dollar by Al per cent; that they would repudiate Government obligations; that they would seek to circumveni the Constitution; that they would attempt to socialize and regiment Americans"
 MT. Hoover takes the negative as. poets of the case. He charges lacl of frankness, rather than actual af. firmative deception. Other Repub. licans, however, have gone further quoting directly the Democratic plat. form promises to reduce Government expenditures by one-fourth, main tain sound" currency, and enforc, strictly the antitrust laws.

ROBINSON'S REPLY

A reply to MT. Hoover's speech was issued by the Democratic National Committee in the form of a state ment by Senator Robinson, the plr- tvs leader in the Senate.
 This statement took exception to the former Presidents figures on ex- penditures, disputed his thesis that the present industrial upturn dated from the Supreme Court decision holding MIRA unconstitutional, and concluded
 Like every other Republican speaker of the present era, while deploring the relief expenditures, he gives no hint of any project, plan, or even an idea of a substitute pro- gram to keep the unemployed iron hunger and hardship until such tim. as industry can and will put then back to work"
 The statement may or may not have been intended as an all-inclu sive answer to MT. Hoover but, 10. whatever reason, it did not review in detail his charge of lack of frank ness.
 If this Democratic utterance is sig, nificant in it's content and in it, omissions, it would seem that the dispute develops in this fashion: The Republicans say the Demo cratic Party has broken faith, dupeo he voters, and turned it's back oI solemn promises. The Democrat reply: How could it have been help led, and what would you have done?' But perhaps much more will ht heard about this later.

By BYRON PRICE tChief of Bureau, The Associated Press, Washington

AtCoS, tS6ohhiS tohJ
 Putting aside individual issues, the Republican indictment against the New Deal' may be summed up, as it stands today, in few brief speci- fications:
 That it is unsound economically oThat it is not working in practice. That it is contrary to the Consti- tuition. That it violates the Demo- cratic promises of 1882.
 The first three of these charges have been discussed widely, and MT. Roosevelt's supporters have replied to them at some length.
 It has been argued on the Admin istration side that new economic measures were necessary if the coun- try was to be rescued from the de- precision; that the beneficial results are apparent in improved economic conditions and that New Deal policies do not actually violate the Constitution, but merely apply con- stitutional principles in the light Of tbe greatly changed necessities of the present day.
 There remains the final charge of bad faith. Republican spokesmen ar declaring with increasing frequency that the most vital features Of the Democratic platform on which MT. Rcoseyelt was elected have beer scrapped; and thus far most Demo- cratic leaders have ignored the ac- cusation, or at least have under taken no complete reply to it.
