Bar Seeks New WAYS
To Make Jury Service
More Attractive

Ways to make jury service more
attractive and efficient are being
studied by the American Bar As
sociation.
A proposal was made yesterday
to raise the pay for District jury
service from the present 81 day,
to raise jury commissioners from
the present $3.50 year, and to
make court terms simpler so jurors
can understand instructions and
court procedure.
Chief Judge Bolitha j. Laws Of
District Court, chairman OF the
bar associations Special Commit
tee on Improving the Administra-
tion Of Justice. which met in the
Municipal Court Building, asked
a subcommittee to investigate the
drst two proposals.
1--WE have excused more Jurors
this year because the low pay
would work a hardship on them
and their families than for any
other reason" Judge Laws said.
He pointed out that. in some
eases, industries and business firms
continue the pay of employees who
serve on juries, but in most cases
this is not done.
The committee heard a report
from District Court Judge Alexan.
der Holtzoff, chairman of the sub
committee on instructions tt
jurors, concerning drafting of sim.
plified instructions to jurors.
Florida Supreme Court Judge
Elwyn Thomas urged the use o1
simpler terms both in court
charges and oral instructions, and
In official court records.
Upon the treatment Of jurors
and their understanding Of the
case, depends the outcome Of JUS
tice," he said. "We have made
progress, but much more needs tt
be made"

C. EDUCATIONAL BENEFITS

Nothing lasts forever. The G. I. Bill Of Rights came
blessing to Under this Bill thousands avalled
school of their choice Hundreds of others too
to take advantage of the unusual chance of
securing education trade at the expense of the tax
payers of this country We suppose in instances it
found mpracticabe to do so.
There is still opening, but it will not be long before
the door will be closed The Veterans Administration
calls attention to the fact that July 25 1851 all educa
tonal benefits will be terminated except under the follow
ing conditions:
con this date a veteran must be enrolled in edu-
catonal institution be in interrupted status because
of vacation, other reasons beyond the
control of the veteran.
After this date veteran must be in continuous train
ing during the regular school until he reaches his
educational job objective.
Also after this date no veteran may change his basic
of education except for satisfactory to the
Veterans Administration"
Those interested should lose time in getting in
touch with the Administration.
Poor Richard says that time lost is found again,
and what we call time enough always proves little
enough.

look for the peak of the season.
Unfortunately. for a number of

eye on that Elusive thing. Per-
haps Miami has spread out so
long and so wide that where
business used to "hum" now il
just "Simmers"-and the height
has gone down.
One of the signs of the season
is the number of thieves and rob-
bers who are on active duty day

Like you shows that much interest,
Alice, a man would be fool not to
listen. Don't worry"
He turned and walked out of the
shaded store into the hot brilliance
of the afternoon sun. He stood for
moment in the doorway, observing
that now there were only few peo-
pie on the street, which few min
utes before had been almost crowded.
He let this knowledge sink in as he
slowly made his way across the dust
towards the doors of the Half Moon.
He felt eyes upon him all the way.
He hesitated only moment before
he pushed aside the doors of the
saloon, and entered.
Asheavy smell of smoke and alco-
hol stung his nostrils as the doors
swung behind him, and he stood
there taking mental picture of his
surroundings. The card tables at his
right were filled, but all play was
stopped the instant his presence was
observed. A hush settled over the
usual boisterous racket of the place.
Jack Gaines, his gamblers face re-
vealing nothing, shuffled the cards
but did not deal them.
Jeff's observant eyes noticed a
stirring at the bar, which left one
man standing there alone, with his
back TO the door. That broad back,
Jeff knew, belonged to Brett Sards.
Jeff smoved from the doorway to
the bar and gave his order.
As. the bartender moved away,
Brett turned insolent eyes on Jeff
and said, "a saloon is one place that's
not particular about it's customers =
The silence hung heavily as jeff
finished his drink. He turned to the
man beside him.
Friend Brett he said coolly,
people have different ideas about
a man."
Anger flashed from Bretts hard
face.
Speakln of men, he rasped, tive
often questioned the color of some
mems insides."
A FLUSH broke through the tar
of Jeff's cheeks. Brett" he an
swered, Il came to tell you that
want no trouble with you.'
"a wise man." sneered Brett
EVEN if you are yellow one"
Jeff slammed his glass on the bal
His eyes were brightly hard as h
said tightly: Brett, you're fool.
