Summary "Summarizes the results of a field study of the business of the United States courts by a staff member of this committee. On the basis of information contained in the report, it seems that substantial savings can be effected through the employment of better administrative direction and procedures throughout the judicial system. As an example, the report shows that in the fiscal year 1958 over $1 million of an appropriation of approximately $3,128,000 for petit jurors was paid prospective jurors on days when they were called but neither served nor were challenged, and that some district courts regularly called a great many more jurors than were ever needed"--Foreword, page iii
