I II W4 MAJORITY VERDICT WCOMICT Florida Judges Recommend Change In State Legal Code OPINION OF 11 MEN SHOULD PREVAIL Also Recommend Appeal on Technical Opinions by Lower Courts Presiding Judge Should Decide His Prejudice Other Changes Suggested. TALLAHASSE, Fla., (Jet. 0. Recom mendation that the state legal code be amended so that "majority" verdicts in both criminal and civil cases would suf fice, was contained in the report of cir cuit judges who met here at the call of Governor Cary A. Hardee, to formulate a proposed revision to the legislature at its next session. The judges recommended that in cases where a jury of 12 men is required, the verdict of 11 be accepted while in panels of six men. the opinion of live should pre vail. Under the present state law, all except capital cases are tried by juries of six men. Another recommendation deals with present procedure under which u judge is automatically disqualified in a case where two electors sign affidavits that he is prejudiced. The judges suggested determining whether he would be allowed to sit in judgement of himself in de termining whether he would be preju diced if the allegations set forth in the two affidavits were true. As an effort to tliwnrf llie freim nf Inw vinl.itnra fin technicalities, the judges' conference pro-1 posed that the state be given the right 1 of appeal from the judgement of lower j courts where cases are dismissed on de murrey, quashed indictments, or tile like. The provision in the code that counsel for the defendant shall have the last argu ment before the jury when the defendant does not take the stand, would be elimin ated in the proposed changes. The con ference also adopted Governor Hardee"': suggestion that the jury election method be stabilized by establishment in each county of a jury commission who would draw up for prospective iury service the names of nnt less than 2!M) nor more than Ti'.'A) qualified "male" persons. It is with h view to improving the personnel of juries. No provision has been made in this date as yet fr service on juries by wmen. Th" present law rlso would amended to allow the removal for trial to another county of criminals when, in the opinion of the governor, circuit judge or sheriff, a fair trial would not) be ac corded in the immediate community.

OB BE jJR'OTHBRS BUSINESS SEDAN With this car, Dodge Brothers have literally created a new type of sedan. They have combined open car ruggedness with closed car protection and smartness.

The body is built of hand-welded steel because steel i3 sturdy, and will take a permanent, oven-baked finish, eliminating forever the cost of repainting. The seats are upholsteicd hV attractive, genuine Spanish blue leather, because leather will wash and wear. V To further enlarge the car's usefulness, the rear seat, back and side cushions, seat frame and foot rest are quickly removable, giving sixty-four cubic feet of flat loading space m the rear compartment, manifold uses made possible by this unique are readily imagined. The top and rear quarters are of non-rumbta construction, conforming with the present at vogue.
