He said that on the basis of population the number of judgesin St. Louis County should he 20, not 10. "Recent comments stating that the congested conditions in the circuit court of St. Louis county- is due to the lack of diligence on the part of some of the judges in the performance of their duties is not true," Mr. Carter declared.

NEED MORE WORK Counselor Parker told the Airport Legislative Club Thursday that more work, from some 'of the judges, rather than more judges, would help tci cut down the backlog. "We have some fine and hard-working judges," 'Mr. Parker said, "but some aren't." He did not mention any names. The number of cases handled per judge in St. Louis county is among the highest of the 42 circuits in the state, Mr.

Carter pointed out. The Bar Association official continued: "New litigation haS been increasing rapidly. In the year ending June 15, 1962, a total of 6431 cases were filed and 5691 were disposed of.
