British Justice

In an interesting address beforcl

the Canadian Club of Washington this week, Chief Justice Angiin em- phasized, anion: ctlirr things, thc expedition of Canadian’ criminal pro- cedure. One can imagine no more timely subject to be discussed in the capital of the great Republic to thc south of us, The alarming criinc re- cord in the Unitcd States is said to be due, in some measure at least, to \ faulty system o! administration of

iustlce. If tiny lesson were to be de-i

rived from a comparison of thc slas- Lems in Canada and the United States. Chief Justice Anglin felt it rnlght be that the American people Ihouid trust their trial Judges fur- trier than they do. He pointed out that. Canada, in sixty-three years, has never yet had a Judge indicted 5r prosecuted for maiadministration it office. ' l The Canadian spsiem. of coursfi- 15 lerived from the juridical practice in British courts. This practice has been perfected by experience. In earlier times the dominance of British Judfl- ea over their courts was sometimes abused. Mr. Anglin referred to the notorious JUdZENJEUTBYS. who would lav in beginning and winding UP I
