Despite the favorable weather conditions here the San Bernardino shops have a low rate in the safety progress as compared to other points of the Santa Fe, where Ice, snow and inclement weather greatly add to the hazards of Injury, according to Mr. Hale.

"There Is a great deal of pride among the shop associations In regard to the standing they hold In the safety ratings and it Is this incentive that haa prompted me to come here for a short period to help San Bernardino in its Campaign Just starting," said Mr. Hale yesterday. A large chart picturing a race track, with the horses representing various departments of the shops, has been placed in a conspicuous part of the shops and will be regulated each day according to the reports of the different association safety committees. This method and similar practices have been adopted at other Santa Fe shops and have resulted In marked im provement of safety as well as a means to encourage this work.

If it is desired to reduce a Jury to nine men it might be all right but let's keep the unanimous verdict "As for the Juvenile court, I am In favor of keeping it and trying the kid in the 'kid's It has, from my experience, aided many a boy to return to society as a useful member where otherwise he would have been cast in prison. "The indeterminate sentence act was passed because for one reason.

Judges in different counties would send a man to the penitentiary for vastly different terms though their crimes were similar. A man from one county passed a $7 bad check and was sentenced for seven years, while his neighbor across a county line received but one year." Judge Warmer urged the reten tion of the parole stating it had been beneficial in 85 per cent of cases in this county. He also op posed the suggestion that a judge be given the power to comment on evidence, stating that the latter prerogative was the cardinal one for which a Jury existed. In making his stand for the retention of these measures he urged that the object of the courts was primarily to make better citizens where possible rather than sending men to penitentiaries. gram contains many names.

It must either go forward or backward. So it is with America and so with California," Judge Warmer said.

This is, I believe, the history of our criminal law which through the humanitarian processes of the day has become liberalized. "Today in California through the influence of the Los Angeles Crime Commission, chiefly, we are face to face with an attempt to turn back this progress.

We hear that the Juvenile court, paroles, and, other enactments of recent year's are causing a great crime wave. One object of these would-be law changes is to abolish the unanimous Jury verdict in criminal cases. Personally I am unalterably opposed to this.
