E. Pomeroy, who retired*. Be cause laws are administered by men, 1 am sure you desire to vote for the man who measures up to your standards for this important position. Because it is physically impossible for me to appear in all localities to talk with the voters person-to-person, I, therefore, present this statement of my reasons for believing it to be your best interests to elect me to this place upon the bench. For 35 years I have been preparing myself to serve my community - judge. For 16 of these years 1 was a prosecuting officer, seeking always to uphold law and order and to protect the lives and homes of the citizens. For the remainder of my legal work I was in the “general practice ” have engaged in civil cases of all kinds . . . damage suits, domestic relations, equity cases, land suits, etc., having contact with people in all walks of life and with all kinds of human problems. I have acted as defense counsel in many capital cases as well as lesser offences, and have learned that people can be innocent though sometimes unable to prove their innocence in court. All these are valuable experiences for a judge upon the bench. He needs to understand the hearts of the citizens who appear in his Court. He needs to have a bond of sympathy with them which can be gained only from living and working among them for many vears It cannot be gained from sitting at a desk, or studying books. It cannot be gained from working for the state government, or for any other one client. For six years I took the time to serve as an instructor of Law at night. I am a veteran, having been in service in both World Wars. If elected to this post, I pledge my conscientious effort to obtain justice for every person appearing in the Court, and the people of my County will never have cause to regret having elected me. I respectfully ask your vote this office. Walter LeCraw FITZGERALD—Three days of festivities featured the recent Bar Mitzvah of Tavin Kaminsky, son of Mr. and Mrs. H. R. Kaminsky here.
