Japanese High Court Judges Take in Law School Classes

NO WRITER ATTRIBUTED

Seven Japanese High Court officials arrived in Cambridge yesterday morning to be the guests of the Law School for classes and discussion of the American judicial system. The jurists will be here until Friday.

The visit is part of a tour the judges are making of several universities, law making, and administrative bodies throughout the country.

The new Japanese constitution provides a judicial department which assumes a full third of governmental responsibilities, like that of this country. The judges are here to observe how the system works. Discussions with Sheldon Glueck, professor of Criminology, Paul A. Freund, professor of Law, and the Honorable Stanley E. Qua, Chief Justice of the Supreme Court of Massachusetts will be included in the forthcoming meetings.
