Word Forms Won't
Maintain Democracy,
Hughes Declares
Make Institutions Work
As Intended, He Tells
Judicial Conference
Chief Justice Hughes told leading
members of the District bench and
bar today that democracy cannot be
maintained by “forms of words or
occasional patriotic vows,” but only
by making our institutions “work as
they were intended to work, with the
full confidence of the people.”
Speaking before the opening ses
sion of the first Judicial Conference,
Chief Justice Hughes said that con
fidence in judicial processes must be
secured largely through impressions
made on the great mass of people
who are litigants in inferior courts.
"The lower tribunals, such as Mu
nicipal Court, the Magistrate's Court,
the poor man's court, are perhaps
more important than the higher
courts in the land,” he declared.
“The success of institutions lies
in these contacts and every judge,
whatever his court, has a very im
portant obligation, to see to it, as
far as his power goes, that the ma
chinery of Justice receives the con
fidence and respect of every citizen.”
Greeted by Applause.
Members of the conference, held
in Court of Appeals courtroom, rose
to greet the Chief Justice with
hearty applause as he was intro
duced by Chief Justice D. Lawrence
Groner of the appellate tribunal.
Sitting with them on the court
bench were Judge John Parker,
senior jurist of the Fourth Circuit,
and Henry P. Chandler, director of
the administrative office of the
United States courts. The approx
imately 100 persons attending in
cluded judges of all the courts here,
representatives of the United States
attorney’s office, representatives of
the Federal, Patent, Women's, Dis
trict and Washington Bar Associa
tions.
Justice Hughes, who was instru
mental in obtaining passage of leg
islation which calls for the annual
conference in each circuit between
members of the bar and the bench,
said that such a gathering would
greatly facilitate the administration
of justice by bringing forth many
ideas that otherwise would not have
the attention they deserved.
"I like the idea,” the speaker said,
“of the District court judges meet
ing the judges of the appellate
bench face to face and telling them
what they think of them.”
He added that it likewise would
be advantageous for members of
the bar to express their views to the
judges. He also stressed the impor
tance of informality in the con
ference.
Parker Outlines Purpose.
Prom Judge Parker the conference
heard an outline of the purposes of
the gathering.
"The tendency has been for each

judge to consider the problems of
judicial administration from the
limited viewpoint of local law and
conditions rather than in relation to
the life of the country as a whole,”
he said. “The effect of the confer
ence is to break up this isolation, to
bring the judges into contact with
each other, to develop among them
an esprit de corps, and to cultivate
a national rather than a parochial
point of view, so that they see the
problems of judicial administration
as they affect the country.”
He said that judges and lawyers
frequently have valuable ideas for
improving judicial administration
which are allowed to die because
they are never given adequate ex
pression. A purpose of the confer
ence is to bring such ideas up for
consideration. He said that the par
ticipation of members of the bar and
by representatives of law schools is
an important factor in the discus
sions.
Supports Court House Plan.
Support of the proposal to erect
a new courthouse for District Court
was pledged by Mr. Chandler, whose
office has the duty of providing ac
commodations for the use of the
courts. He said to obtain the new
structure it will be necessary “as a
practical matter” to have the Fed
eral Works Agency include the proj
ect in its building program and then
to obtain an appropriation from
Congress. He pointed out that the
initiative for such an enterprise
must come from the District, but
pledged his co-operation in the
movement.
The two-day conference was to
continue this afternoon following a
luncheon at the Cosmos Club with
only District judges and judges of
the Court of Appeals participating.
The conference will open at 10 a m.
tomorrow, and in the afternoon only
the judges will meet to discuss prob
lems, as today.
At 7 p.m. tomorrow a dinner spon
sored by the District, Federal, Wom
en's and Patent Bar Associations
will be held at the Mayflower Hotel.

Two Central Schools
For Handicapped
Children Sought
Board of Education
To Get Committee's
Program Next Month
A recommendation for two cen- j
tral schools for white and colored
handicapped children will be sent
to the Board of Education some
time in June by its Advisory Com
mittee on Handicapped Children.
The committee’s proposal, adopt
ed last night, specified the sites
for the two schools should include
recreation space and did not nec
essarily have to be located near
Children’s and Freedmens Hos
pitals.
Previously it had been consid
ered desirable by school officials
that the schools be located near
the hospitals. The committee felt
that sunshine and gardens out
weighed any advantages of nearness
to the two institutions, especially
after Dr. Joseph A. Murphy of the
Health Department said the chil
dren as a rule would not need
medical checkups oftener than every
two months. It was indicated bus
transportation should be provided.
The schools would house crippled,
cardiac and sight conservation chil
dren. and any others thought by
the Health Department to require
education in such a school. The
schools would have classes for Junior
high school as well as elementary
grades.
The committee suggested that
cafeterias be provided as in other
schools and that children unable to
afford meals be taken care of -as
they now are In the regular
To put Its entire program Into
effpct the committee recommended
a legislative program calling for:
1. Legislation for special classes
for Braille Instruction with an ap
propriation for special equipment.
2. Legislation for special classes
for the partially hearing children
with an appropriation for special
equipment.
3. Legislative provision for classes
for cardiac children with a support''
ing appropriation.
4. Legislative provision for in
struction in lip reading plus a sup
porting appropriation.
5. Recommendation that the
Health Department seek funds for
psychiatric service and an eye clinic
headed by an opthalmologist.
«. Authorisation for the two
schools with funds for sites, plans
and buildings.
The committee gave a vote of
thanks to Miss Gladys Evans of the
office of the Board of Education
for her work as committee secre
tary.
Lost Gold Sought
Somewhere in London $600,000
worth of missing Spanish bullion

The gold—in ingots—was stolen fbi
years a go while in transit from

searched safe deposit boxes without
results.
