COURTS REvAMPED.
IN NEW ZEALAND
Plan Similar to RooSevelt's
Is Successful, Young
Lawyer Says.

In making his recommendations for
a thorough overhauling of this coun-
try's judiciary, President Roosevelt
may have had in mind the success OF
q similar experiment in New Zealand.
New Zealand hasn't established a
proctor for its highest court, but in
other respects it has done with its
judiciary substantially the same things
the President proposes for this
country.
According to A. r. s. McGhie,
young law graduate from wellington,
who is making a study of conditions
in this country before returning to
New Zealand to take up his law prac-
tice, the experiment in his native land
has worked well.
In New Zealand, he said, there has
been for many years statutory re-
tirement age Of 72 for judges of the
Supreme Court. When a judge reaches
this age he is retired automatically.
There is also provision for the trans
fer of judges from one district to an
other and for appointment Of tenn
POi a. JudSCo "iACiC dAASoAo VA A'sA
CATION become unwieldly. In recent
years, McGhie said, this provision fire.
quently has been invoked, and the
appointee to a temporary judgeship
often was a recently retired judge
whose years exceeded the statutory
limit, but whose faculties remained
unimpaired.
BY the crown suits act OF 1910 in
New Zealand, it is provided that no
action which may affect the crown
shall be taken before any court until
one months written notice shall have
been given to the attorney general.
who may enter an appearance and
plead in the suit. Even after the
months notice has expired the At
torney General may still plead. pro-
vided the suit has not been deter
mined and provided he enters his
appearance within a further period of
% days. Similar provisions apply to
actions in which municipal corpora
tons are, or may be concerned. These
provisions. he added, have done much
to simplify the difficulties arising out
of litigation affecting the crown and
local bodies generally.
From this country McGhie is 60
ing to London to study for year be-
fore returning to Wellington.

Rider

every organization here. it seems, Is
seeking repeal Of the rider. think
Congress should give serious consider
alton to their views. The Board of
Education also favors repeal of the
rider. That is responsible agency of
the District and its views should be
respected. Congress should look to
the board for guidance in all edu-
cational matters.
Ayiil Not Object.
II haven't talked with Mr.. Ken
nedy for some time and I did not
know he planned a compromise. But
if he is absolutely certain his original
bill will be defeated, then will not
offer any objection. Perhaps
through an amendment We can de-
stroy the effect of the red rider now,
and later have it repealed outright"
Representative Scott, Democrat, of
California does not propose to let
Kennedy get an opportunity to offer
the amendment. Like Dirksen, he
believes the House should vote on the
original bill and he plans to force
consideration of that measure by par
liamentary maneuvers.
Scott said If he can get recognition
as soon as the bill is called up in the
House he will move its consideration
before Kennedy can offer an amend
ment.
"The issue facing the House is not
communism" Scott declared. II hope
to force roll call vote on the origi-
nal bill so the educational and parent
teacher organizations in the States
will know how their representatives
in Congress stand on such q ques-
tion.'
Mrs. Henry Grattan Doyle, president
OF the District School Board, declared
yesterday that the board has in
dorsed repeal Of the rider. Its inter-
est, she asserted, has always been
in the point that the red rider caused
so much confusion in the presentation
OF Soviet history. The substitute
would seem to continue this con-
fusion.
THE board never has and never
could permit the advocacy of any
un-American doctrine. Therefore the
substitute would seem as unnecessary
as the red rider itself.
Board Has Legal Duty.
The Board of Education is charged
by law with the responsibility Of su-
pervision Of the courses of study in
the schools" said Mrs. Doyle.
Last years report of Mr.. Kennedy,
made on May Z, 1886. in favorably
reporting the bill to repeal the
rider, said in part: The present
law is not only an innovation, in
that there is no legislative body which
prescribes courses of study in the
several States, but it is contrary to
the traditional American system Of
conducting our public schools. The
traditional American system of con-
Quoting public schools has been for
ton selected from representative citi-
Zens of the school district or city.
The members Of such boards are not
educational experts, but they exer-
else 2. general supervision over the
conduct Of the schools. They engage
superintendent, principals and other
teachers who are experienced in edu-
cation to map out the course Of
study and prescribe methods of in
struction. No other instance was

any intimidation of workers there by
the defendant union.
William J. Corrigan, counsel for the
unions Fisher local, said General
Motors had no serious intention"
of opening the plant even If the in
junction was granted.
w. x. Stanley, General Motors
counsel, estimated the strike had cost
workers S1,500,000 in wages.
A union motion to again postpone
the case was overruled. Corrigan in
asking for the continuance said that
the action might jeopardize negotia-
tions under way in Detroit for set
tlement of the strike.
Corrigan contended that Lincoln
Scafe, local Fisher plant manager
lacked authority to act for General
Motors.
Continuing his long opening state
ment Corrigan said he wanted to
ask Scafe:
If the injunction is granted will
General Motors open the plant? My
information is that the Cleveland
plant will not open until a strike
settlement is reached at Detroit on q
national basis"
Stanley in his statement said the
suit was purely local and that ne was
willing to confine the issue to the
question of reduction of pickets at
each gate of the plant to two.

Six other ships were about ready
