The constant increase of court
expenditures is inexplicable to the
burdened tax-payers who have
not gene to the trauble of seeking
a solution based upon investiga­
tion. The trouble primarily is
traceable to the legislative mill
which grinds out an endless quan­
tity of ufeless and often harmful
laws. Such hodge-podge products
of the legislative machinery leads
directly to increased court busi­
ness. Another bad practice of
legislative bodies is that of paying
more attention to party politics
and the spoils incident thereto
than to the real business that
should have consideration. There
certainly should lie some plan
adopted whereby legislatures will
attend to making laws and not to
seeking s|ioils.
