Laws Touring Country
To Ask Pre-TriaI Courts

Justice Bolitha J. Laws of Dis
trict Court is assuming the role of
a travelling salesman to advocate the
establishing of pre-trial tribunals in
various parts of the country, so that
law suits may be winnowed down to
their essentials by agreement, before
a jury Is picked, and thus conserve
time and money for jurists, juries,
attorneys and litigants.
The jurist has just returned to the
city, after delivering an address on
pre-trial before members of the
bench and bar of the Eighth Judi
cial Circuit Conference at st. Louis,
Mo-, attended by members of the
legal fraternity from Idaho, North
and South Dakota, Missouri and
Iowa. Chief Justice Charles Evans
Hughes of the Supreme Court des-
ignated Justice Laws to make this
trip. The conference was held
Thursday, Friday and Saturday last.
On March I, Justice Laws went to
Cincinnati, Ohio, and addressed a
conference held there by the bar,
under the auspices of the Ohio State
Bar Association and spoke on pre-
trial procedure.
Justice Laws served on the pre-
trial court of District Court recently
and this work is now being done by
Justice Oscar r. Luhring.

Bar Reverses Itself,

'Colored Lawyers
Bylaws Are Amended
To Meet Ruling by
Attorney General

Reversing earlier action which had
stirred sharp controversy, the Bar
Association of the District OF Co.
Mmbia last night adopted an
amendment to the bylaws which
will make the facilities of its Court
house library available to colored
lawyers.
The vote was lis to 81, a majority
of two votes over the two-thirds re-
quired. In December, the association
voted 70 to 46 against opening the
library to non-members.
Under the amendment, which was
voted after warm debate, the non
members will pay So annually for
the library privileges.
After the association had voted
against permitting non-members to
use the law library. Attorney General
jackson served notice that as of
April /, the library must be made
available to all members of the bar

citation either to comply or seek new
quarters. Non-members now will

decision.
Warns of Loss of Prestige.
The amendment which composed
the differences was submitted by
Paul E. Lesh. who urged his asso-
ciates mot to act self1shly" and not
to set themselves up as private
club" by taking steps to remove the
library from the present convenient
location.
Mr.. Lesh pointed out that the
library had been housed in the
Courthouse for go years and that
the books are now kept there with
out cost. Aside from the convenience
to the members of the association,
he continued, the library renders
service to the courts and said that
the justices themselves recognized
this and that it was the sort of
cooperation the association should
continue to give.
I'VE are going to lose part Of the
prestige if we remove our library
and cease to render this service to
the courts" he continued.
1t probably would cost the Govern
ment 100000 to duplicate the Ii
brary, Mr.. Lesh said, point that
should not be overlooked in the light
of the huge defense expenditures
that are being undertaken.
Urges Fair Offer.
Lets make the Attorney General
a fair offer. A fair offer is likely to
be accepted" he told the association.
One objection came from Richard
L. Merrick, who said that he was un-
willing to be "coerced" into taking a
stand which he disapproved.
Reporting for the committee on a
new building for the association,
John K. Cunningham, committee
secretary, said that four sites are
under consideration, and that the
committee considered the project
entirely feasible" He mentioned
prices ranging from s65. 900 to $780,
600. Several members, however,
cautioned the association against
undertaking too heavy a burden.
The public service of Justice Pey-
ton Gordon, who has just retired,
was extolled in one resolution. Other
resolutions approved pensions for
justices of Police. Municipal and
Juvenile Courts, and the proposal to
build stadium here.
