|JudgeshipR Race
|sfirs Hot Fight
In Arlington
Cooper and Brown
Press Bottle Over
Traffic Court Setup
By SAM EASTMAN

The fight for Democratic
nomination to the Arlington
County judgeship is in sharr
contrast to the serene primary
trace for the House Of Delegates
i In the flve-way contest for the
three House seats, no candidate
,lhas questioned the opinions
qualifications or past records Of
Ianother candidate.
i With the bids for the State
iSenate seat and four county Of
Ihces uncontested, the only pri-
mary fireworks have come from
1.-The judgeship race.
Wesley w. Cooper has leveled
three attacks-the latest one
Observation-Disclosures his opponent
ISubstitute Judge Paul d. Brown
lMr. Cooper, a member Of the
County Board and a lawyer, con-
tended that the motorist Is moi
assured Of fair treatment under
1.-THE present Traflc Court and
Violations Bureau setup.
Replies to Criticisms
Judge Brown. who has spent
most Of his time on the bench
lin the Traffic Court, denied that
there is any basis to Mr.. Coop
er's criticisms.
Mr.. Cooper's latest criticism
was q statement that the mo-
torist is compelled, by order
Iof the county court. to plead
guilty before he can post col.
lateral.
II Mr.. Cooper declared that be-
fore q defendant can post col
lateral he is required to sign
1.-THE Uniform Traffic Ticket which
has on it:
II do hereby plead guilty tc
said offense (s) as charged
waive my right to q hearing
Iby the court. and agree to pay
the penalty prescribed by my
|offense (s)."
Sees Automatic Conviction"
The candidate went on to say
that this statement subjugates
the rights Of the motorist" and
Ills "in essence an automatic con.
viction."
An examination Of the traffic
ticket shows that the paragraph
from which MIR. Cooper quoted
also contains this language at
the beginning:
II, the undersigned, do hereby
voluntarily enter my appearance
on the complaint Of the Of
Ifense(s (s) charged on the other
lside Of this summons. I have
been informed Of my right to a
trial. that my signature to this
plea Of guilty viii be presented
in court on the trial date at the
time of the trial in my absence
and that this record may be sent
to the Commissioner Of Motor
Vehicles Of this State Cor Of the
State where I received my license
Ito drive)."
Used i'm 800 Cities
Asked to comment, Judge
Brown said:
"Other lawyefs understand
1.-THE national uniform ticket is
used in more than 600 cities.
"No one is ever. under any
circumstances. forced to plead
guilty. The back Of the ticket,
a large sign In the Violations
Bureau and the instructions to
the commissioners affirms this
statement"
He explained that Sin every
case, except when q person Is
intoxicated. the motorist who
appears In the Violations Bu-
reau-having been previously
taken into custody by q police
ofhcer" has a choice Of posting
bond or signing the uniform
ticket.
Mr.. Cooper announced that
at next Saturdays board meet
Iing-three days before the pri-
|mary-he will propose that the
language quoted by him be de-
lleted from the ticket.
