Peoples Court
Judge to Advise
Changes in Law

Judge Einar Christensen, of the
Peoples Court of Montgomery
County, listed nine amendments
he recommends be made in the
laws providing for the court at
the next session of the Maryland
General Assembly
In a report to the suburban
Maryland advisory board of the
local American Automobile Asso-
citation, Judge Christensen said
the court has accomplished a
great deal under it's limited au-
thority," but that to be function
ing at its greatest efficiency and
to provide the service it was in
tended to provide, Legislation
should be adopted to clear the
picture" His suggested amend
ments included measures that:
Provide a means to remove a
judge after showing cause; pro-
vide a pension program for
judges; make the Peoples Court
court of record; allow the
court to adopt an official seal;
provide authority to set aside de-
cisions and order a new trial;
increase civil jurisdiction to cas-
es involving $1,000 instead of linn
iting it to $500; provide for the
appointment of a chief judge; al
low the court to adopt rules of
conduct; provide power to sus-
pend sentences or set aside judg-
mentS.
The Peoples Court was estab-
lished by law passed in the 1855
General Assembly, and began
functioning June Is, 1855. 1t is
operating with two full time
judges and one substitute judge
five days a week in Rockville,
Bethesda, and Silver Spring.

1t seems that every Democrat
in the Wheaton-Glenmont area is
still full of the precinct elections
that were held last week. What
huge turnouts for something so
local. Felix Putterman, a newly

that over 100 people in his pre-,

these democratic proceedings.

Mrs. Worth is the kindergarten
teacher this year. and was most
impressed with her technique of
teaching. How she managed %
small five-year.olds and had them

time was revelation to me.
Eric Cullander was most
pleased with himself when he had
to display the turnip he had
nodded with clay and painted
purple and white. Because he had
done such a good likeness of his
model, the class applauded him.
Little "Tami' Koss was another
who was delighted with each
thing she had to do.

when the teacher called on her

successful drive selling their
flags. It's true people have been
buying flags like mad. He and
his wife are very active people

Don't forget, if there are any
young boys; ages eight up, who
are interested in going swimming
Wednesday evenings, have them
at the Glenmont Recreation Cen
