Members of High St
Keeeive Yen era lion a
basar Watkins is the flew head of ]
the Atlanta Bar Association, being
aieeted with a prolonged round of
ch**r* at tha annual banquet of the
organisation held at Hotel Ansley
Saturday night
The officers elected with him were
Marion Smith, first vice president;
Sam D. Hewlett, second vice presi
dent and John T. Smith, reelected
■secretary and treasurer.
Lowry Arnold, Charles W. Smith
and Hollins Randolph were elected as
the three new members of the execu
tive committee to serve with Shepard
Bryan and E. M. Underwood, who hold
rrer.
Scintillating with brilliant oratory
and brimming with wit and good
•sheer, the banquet proved the great
est in the history of the association.
The assembly hall of the hotel was
raxed to its capacity, there being 225
guests, nearly a hundred more than
ha%o ever attended a previous ban
quet
Arnold Toastmaster.
Reuben Arnold, president, acted na
toastmaster, but his efforts to hold
the .speakers dow n to the four-minute
ru!e ; proved futile, as In each case
the crowd demanded more from each
one.
Present were the members of tin.
Fulton County Bar and many mem
bers of the Supreme Court and the
Court of Appeals. The impressive
love, dignity and respect in which
itiese Judges were held by the great
:hrong of attorneys was forcibly in>-
i#> eased by others than lawyers in
ttendance, and drew remarks of
ufnmendatidh and congratulations on
i. high ‘tending of the Georgia bar.
The , eakert were Judge. Pendle-
•i, of the Fulton County Superior
onu; Judge Russell, of the Court of
' r.peals. Judge Marcus W. Baker, of
i Supreme Court; John T. Smith,
. <rv of the association; Burton
Shepard Bryan. K. C. Alston,
• -idem of th" State Bar Associa-
Judgc J. H. Liutnkin and R. C.
Cion, who spoke as a representa-
• tii* young attorneys.
Judqe Pendleton Speaks.
Judge Pendleton spoke on “the
* oublta of a Judge.” and the esteem
u which the veteran chief Justice of
ihe Fulton County Superior Court ts
oeld could not have been better lllus
trated than in the ten minutes of ap
plause which greeted him. Judge
Pendleton made a heart-to-heart talk
vet hi* Jocular jab* at the Court of
Appeals drew laugh after laugh
"I like the Court of Appeals, but
they do act funny sometime," he said.
For Instance. Judge Broyles held that
when an officer put his hand behind a
man, felt under his coat and discover
ed a pistol, that the man was guilty of
violating the law. I thought so, too
but the Court of Appeals thought
otherwise and reversed it. They held
that it was an illegal search. But 1
can’t agree with them."
Judge Pendleton used as an Illus
tration the comparison of a Decatur
street negro with a Peachtree street
white man, which brought laughter
from the crowd, and an impassioned
retort from Judge Russell. Turning
the words from a jocular reference t
a serious consideration, he pleaded for
■ he day when the humblest wretch of
Decatur street would receive the same
justice as the most esteemed white
man. This in turn drew cheers from
the banqueters.
Reuben Arnold Lauds Bar.
Judge Baker added to the com
parison with the declaration that he
had agreed with Judges Broyles and
Pendleton, and there were half a dozen
men In the hall who wanted to ex
press an opinion.
Reuben Arnold congratulated the
members of the association on the
high standing of the Atlanta bar. But
one complaint had been received dur-
History oi Association,
ate Courts Attend and
ml Praise of Attorneys.
ing the year, and this had been speed-
ih disposed of 1»r de< lared.
The tact that Georgia judges bore
a reputation for fairness was com
mented upon by Robert C. Alston.
“Strike from the pages of Georgia
history the names of the lawyers, and
there would be but few pages that
would not be blank," he declared.
"There has never been one of our
State Judges accused of unfairness,
and this speaks well for our bar.
“Nowhere can a higher standard he
found than exists among the Atlanta
lawyer*. And the men recruited from
their rank and awarded judgeships
have exemplified the fact that a com
plete spirit of fairness exists. Not
only in the hearing of evidence, but
in the consideration of our bills <>f
exceptions, have our judges displayed
absolute fairness There is not a
man among us here but who knows
that in each particular case handled
by him ne has received the most sin
cere judgment on the part of our Jur
ists.”
