Traffic Ticket Referee
Plan 10 Be Discussed

A new traffic ticket system, in
volving warning notices to first
offenders and a special referee"
for cases of ticket adjustments,
was to be discussed by District
traffic officials this afternoon.
The proposed system will be the
subject of panel discussion of
the sixth annual District Traffic
Court conference being held at
Municipal Court. 1t is based on
a traffic ticket system used in De-
troit which has been under study
for some time by District police
officials.
According to Traffic Director
George E. Keneipp. one of the fea-
lures of the plan would be special
warning tickets to be given to
motorists for minor traffic viola
tionS if they claim it is their first
offense. A record of the ticket
would be sent to a central records
office on all traffic cases. Two
such warning notices appearing
in a motorists file would bring a
summons.
The plan also calls for a tight
ening up of the present methods
for adjusting traffic tickets, now
the task of a number of police Off
cials. A special referee-probably
a police officer-would be ap-
pointed to serve in Traffic Court to
hear requests from motorists who
want their tickets fixed" before
they reach the court.
Every ticket issued by police, in
cluding warning tickets, would be
accounted for. Records of its
serial number would go to the CEN
tral records Office. police head
quarters. the Traffic Court and
police precinct.
Police and traffic officials have
indicated cautious Endorsement of
the plan, while pointing out that
it will involve considerable ex-
pense. It calls for setting up a
high-speed accounting system to
keep track of tickets and tabulate
reports. 1t is also pointed out
that the system is still in the
study stage so far as the District
is concerned. No recommendation
have been sent to the Commission
ers so far, it was said.
The present study of the Detroit
system got under way several
weeks ago when Police Supt.. Mai.
Robert J. Barrett sent Capt. Earl
P Hartman and Corpl. Ashley A.
Aderholt to Detroit to confer with
police there. Their report has
been turned over to Municipal
Court Judge Milton S. Kronheim,
jr., one of the original sponsors
of the Ian for the District.
