All Ohio court of appeal, passing on a case caniet
from the lower court, took occasion to criticise the trial judge
in a way that may have pretty general application in this
country.
"This was a simple robbery case," says tile apprdalo court.
"There were no intricate or difficult ipicstions involved. The
issues should have been tried and the case disposed of in a
(lay or two. The trial was commenced on the 2'Jnd day of
May, 11)25, and was not ended until the 4th day of June. The
record contains !KiS pages of printed matter. The frequency '' r'
with which these large lecmds in very simple cases have re
icntly come to this court, filled to a great extent with ir-

It wastes the time of the trial court and the time of the
higher courts. It wastes the public, money which Keeps the
courts running. It wastes the lesources of the prisoners, and
takes so much more out of (heir lives, Il discredits the
courts in the eyes of the public. The more courts we can have
where Mierfhlnus legal manipulations are discouraged and
direct justice sHeded up, the neater we will be to law ob
