ADVICE
is cheap and some
times very valuable
There's an old saying "advice is cheap." To this
should be added, ".. .and sometimes mighty valuable."
Take advice on farm electric plants, for instance.
We're the authorized Delco-Light Dealers in this
locality. And we've advised a lot of people on
how a Delco-Light would make farm life easier and
pleasanter. And in every case where this advice was
followed we made a friend.
Let us tell you the facts about electricity on the
farm as supplied at little cost with a new 1930 "Red
Line" Delco-Light. It costs nothing to investigate.
And 10 to 1 you'll be glad you did it... once you

TILE SUNDAY ROAST
There is no American tradition
more firmly entrenched than the San
day roast. With most families it Is
as much a part of Sunday as church
services. The Sunday roast is an
American institution.
Roasts are particularly popular
with wives, and the reason is not far
to seek, for they give a wife an ad
vantage over their husband that he
finds great difficulty in overcoming.
In the first place, Sunday roasts are
popular with housewivas because
they solve not only the Sunday din
ner problem but the Monday and
Tuesday dinner problem3 as well. For
on Monday tlrey appear warmed ever
and on Tuesday in the guise of meat
pie or stew. Thus at one stroke to
provide three dinners out of seven is
an accomplishment not to be sniffed
at.
Cut the significance of the Sunday
roast is even more subtle than that.
It appears contemporaneously with
the clean Sunday table linen and ac
companied by enough gravy to float
a battleship. Only the most skillful
hand can avoid a catastrophe. At the
beginning of the meal the good wife
warms against grease spot3 on the
table cloth, and she scolds about them
at the end of the meal.
So long as Sunday roasts appear
upon the table husbands will have to
undergo a weekly demonstration of
their fallability. It is a test of mas
culine prowess communsurtrate only
with keeping the grass cut or remem
bering the articles to be purchased in
town. Of course, a roast could be
carved in the kitchen or the carving
knife could be handed over to the
deft fingers of the better half, but
that would be an admission of de
feat which only the most domineer
ing of husbands would have the
jiardihood to survive.
TRIAL EY JURY ON TRIAL
"Should our jury system be modi
fied?" is the subject of a symposium
in the Congressional Digest. The
question of the efficiency of the jury
system in the administration of jus
tice has for many years been debated
by lawyers and leading public men.
The system has been vigorously at
tacked as tending to impede trials
and defeat justice.
The question is becoming acute
through the recommendations of a
committee of the New York bar for
the relief of congestion in the Fed
eral courts and President Hoover's
appointment of a National Commis
sion cn Law Observance and En
forcement charged with the duty cf
examining into all the causes of de
lay and inefficiency in the procedure
jof courts. Undoubtedly the jury sys
tem is.
on trial before the commission
For the reuet of court congestion
they provide for the appointment by
Federal Judges of Court Commission
ers to whom may be referred minor
cases, mostly misdemeanors or in
volving small pre pert y values in
which the right of trial by jury is
not guaranteed by the Constitution,
but they provide turther for a waiver
of the constitutional right of jury
trial. One bill provides that if the
right of trial by jury is not demand
ed in writing the trial may proceed
without jury, thus nullifying the
! right unless it is specifically demand-
I pd b accuse,j persons or litigants.
J In the Digest's symposium, to
j wMch leadillff iaWyeIH contribute,
;those r.pjoseil to t'ae jury system or
j favol.lnl? its modification argue that
!,t is not suitable for ll!odern society;
Ui,n, rrt Cf!prii- -t i.
jare unintelligent and are not capable
lot' judging facts in the complications
jof the social and industrial organiza
tions of today; "tfiat they are moved
i by prejudice and emotions. There is
! ground fer these criticisms, but the
Ileal question is whether the objec-
tions overweigh the advantages of
'the the present system. Not one of
I them gives consideration to the prin
i ciple of liberty and justice the saf-
ety of the people frcm oppression
land injustice upon which the jury
system is based.
It is interesting to note that the
two Judges engaged in the discus
sion Henry Clay Caldwell, former
Judge of the Eighth Federal Court of
Appeals, and Marcus Kavanaugh of
the Supericr Court of Cook County,
Judge Caldwell, declaring that the
errors of juries as to judgment of
facts are far less numerous than the
errors of Judges in the interpreta
tion of laws and less important, be
cause they do not become precedents,
thus compares the merits of the two
systems:
The twelve men summoned
from the body of the people rep
resent, in their several persons,
different pursuits and occupa
tions in life. Their prejudices,
if they have any, resulting from
their varied pursuits and envir
onments, counteract each other;
but the single Judge, having no
counterpoise, his bias and pre
judice find full and unrestrain
ed expression in his judgments.
He is, besides, constantly strug
gling to force his decisions into
the groove of precedent, and to
that end keeps on pursuing pre
cedent and analogies and refin
ing and refining until he grows
"wild with logic and meta
physics" and loses sight of the
facts of merits of the case in
hand. Juries performing casual
service only can never acquire
the bad habit of fixed tribunals
of deciding mechanically upon
some supposed precedent.
Jesse C. Duke of the Virginia bar
contributes this pregnant statement:
The Jury is the last check
and balance which the people
have upon Congress and the Fed
eral Government. Unjust laws
and unjust or political prosecu
tions cannot be successful as
long as they require 12 men to
unanimously vote to approve
them in a jury trial.
The origin of trial by jury is lost
in the obscurity of the past, but it
has grown naturally in the develop
ment of Anglo-Saxon society. After
the abuses of power under the throne
it was embedded firmly in the Eng
lish Constitution. It was adopted by
the American eclonies, except for
minor offenses and cases." It was
valued so highly by the founders of
the Republic that it was embodied
in the constitutional Bill of.Rights.
From the voluminous writings of
Thomas Jefferson advocating the
right of trial by jury his opinion of
its value may be gathered from the
following excerpts:
I consider trial by jury as the
only anchor ever yet imagined
by man, by which a Government
can be held to the principles of
its Constitution.
The people are not qualified to
judge questions of law, but they
are very capable of judging ques-

tions of fact. In the form of
juries, therefore, they determine
all matters of fact, leaving to
the peimanent Judges to decide
the law resulting rom those
facts. It is left to the
juries, if they think permanent
Judges are under any bias what
ever in any cause, to take on
themselves to judge the law as
well as the fact. They never ex
ercise this power but when they
suspect partiality in the Judges;
and by the exercise of this power
, they have been the firmest bul
warks of English liberty.
Trial by jury is the best of all
safeguards for the person, the
property and the fame of every
individual.
There is a high modern authority
for the value of the jury system. The
late Joseph H. Choate, eminent and
able lawyer and man of public af
fairs, said:
So let me say, and again up
on the same authority of per
sonal experience and observa
tion, that for the determination
of the vast majority of questions
of fact arising upon conflict of
evidence, the united judgment of
12 honest and intelligent lay
men, properly instructed by a
wise and impartial Judge, who
expresses no opinion upon the
facts, is far safer and more like
ly to be right than the sole
judgment of the same Judge
would be. There is nothing in
the scientific and technical train
ing of such a Judge that gives
to his judgment upon such ques
tions superior virtue of value.
So long as Articles VI and VII of
the Federal Constitution stand the
right of trial by jury cannot be abol
ished. Modification is only a step,
but one step leads to another. Kow
long after modification will there be
a campaign, supported by persuasive
eloquence and powerful influence, to
abolish the right of trial by jury?
The extremes to which some Fed
eral Judges have gone in interpreting
and applying the prohibition laws
and in suppressing liberty and free
speech in political cases are not as
surances of the reservation of lib
erty and justice should trial by Judge
be substituted for trial by jury.
We want more speed and efficiency
in the administration of justice, but
is it either necessary or wise to sac
rifice constitutional safeguards to
gain them? The long delays are caus
ed by dockets congested by police
cases, errors of Judges and appeals.
Justice is of first importance.
The people should realize fully
what may be the consequences of the
antijury movement and what it
means to them. Ultimately they will
be the jury to render the final ver
dict in the jury trial.
