More Effective Justice

The machinery of justice will be materially
improved by the reforms which Chief Judge
Laws has just put into effect at District Court.
The changes will mean less delay in handling
cases. fewer and less irritating waits by lawyers
and witnesses in courthouse corridors and
generally more practicable assignment of trials.
In the past it has been the custom for two
judges to assign pending cases to the criminal
and civil dockets. This has resulted at times
in diSproportionate allotment of cases among
the judges, with consequent delays and frequent
reassgnments. Now Chief Judge Laws will make
all assignments, with particular attention to
trials which are likely to be of long duration, so
that more equitable distribution of the courts
workload can be arranged. Under this system
there is possibility of overlapping assignments.
The Chief Judge may delegate the assignment
job to one of his colleagues after the plan has
received preliminary trial.
Another improvement will be the assignment
of the same judge to all pre-trial hearings and
motions bearing on a specific case. When
number of different judges hear various phases
of case, time is lost in famarizing them with
the background of the case And the judges
have decided not to let their summer recess
interfere with the hearing of important cases.
All of these are moves that will speed up trials
and provide more effective brand of justice
in District Court. The cause of law enforcement
In Washington will be correSpondingly advanced
by the changes.

General Walker

The loss of Lieutenant General Walton H.
Walker commander of the United States 9th
Army in Korea, comes grievous news both
to our own country and the United Nations.

was en- route to the front to ready his forces
to meet the massive new offensive that the
Chinese Communists apparently are preparing
to unleash in the direction of Seoul. leader
accustomed to get into the thick of action with
his men, he now takes his place in history as
fine American soldier who has fallen in battle
in line of duty. His passing, coming at this
crucial moment, constitutes particularly heavy
casualty He was an officer of great skill and
daring-quaities he displayed in abundance as
a West Point graduate in the First World War,
as General PattonS strong right arm in the
advance through France during the Second
World War, and as the man who played bril-
liant role in holding the Pusan beachhead, and

magnetic leadership will be Sorely missed. How

Somehow, we must see through their

perhaps the selfishness of the West has

Abuse of Parole

The Washington police fully deserve the
commendation from the FBI for their co-opera-
tion in solving the Spring Valley and Shepherd
Park bank robberies. It was an example of
smart police work on the part of all concerned,
and attests the wisdom of the FBI policy Of
trying to work with rather than in competition
with local law enforcement agencies.
A glance at the record of the leader of the
three bank robbers arrested, however, is enough
to make any one wonder whether the finest
police work is worthwhile.
Christopher Tassos, seized on the West Coast
is "a years old. Here is his record: jailed in
New Jersey in 1888 for assault and robbery,
paroled the following year. Jailed as parole
violator in 1885, reparoled in 1885; jailed again
in 1887, reparoled in 1888; sent to Sing Sing in
1899 to serve seven to 10 years, and believe it
or not, paroled again. few years later he was
picked up again, this time in New jersey and
Jailed. In 1946 he was out on parole
This is the sort of thing that makes mock
