HOLDS (INVITATION)
TO HIDDEN HEARING CLOUD)
Precisely the same complaint is now made by the Administrative Board. During the hearing of cases in which citizens are charged with infractions of the health and sanitary codes, the court, it is charged, frequently addresses remarks to the city's witnesses which hold them up to ridicule before the spectators. So acute has this condition become that Health Department inspectors have come to look upon their appearance in the Police Court as an ordeal to be dreaded.
The motions offered by Mr. Beck are directed towards reducing the crowding, which is an objectionable feature of the daily sessions of the Police Court. The courtroom is located in the basement of the City Hall, several feet below the sidewalk line, and the indiscriminate packing of spectators, white and black, into the small basement room frequently produces a stifling congestion.
