Hill on the Court of Appeals. He an nounced his Intentions In an open loi ter made public Friday. Judas L. R Roan, appointed at the conclusion of the Frank trial, over wlilch he presided, to fill the varanr:» on the Appellate bench made by Judge Hill s appointment to the ro w Atlanta Circuit, said Friday that he had not msuie up his mind whether he would seek to retain his position on the Court of Appeals against th«; opposition of Recorder Broyles "I had made no definite plana for the future when I accepted the ap pointment to the Appellate bench,” he said to The Georgian. "1 did not know whether I would ask to serve longer on this bench. I am still un decided. In fact, I had not given the matter much thought before the can- I dldary of Recorder Broyles was an nounced. arid it Is unlikely that I will be prepared to make any announce- 1 ment before the first of the new yea r ” Scramble for Record6r*hip.

Preston, Recorder Pro Tern, twclv* years and clerk of the Police Court 21 years. Because of the number of Candi da les It is probable that this Contes! will be un spectacular as that for th** Appellate Court position. Preston has had the advantage of a great deal of experience In the Police Court. Wil liam M. Smith previously has been a candidate for the office, running at th * time Recorder Broyles was opposing Judge J. R. Pottle for a plao~ on the Court of Appeals. The Broyles-Pot tle contest resulted in a tie. Broyles withdrew at the State convention s* that the nomination of Pottle might, be unanimous. Broyles Recorder 15 years. Broyles has been Recorder fifteen years. In this time lie has attracted State-w ide attention through the vig orous aid he has given Chief Beavers In the vice crusades that have swept Atlanta and the part he has taken in otlu-r civic reforms. Judge Roan, who resigned his pos tion ait judge of the Stone Mountain Circuit to take the appointment to the Appellate bench, has presided at many of Georgia’s famous criminal trices, closing his career in the lower courts with the Frank, trial. Recorder Broyles said In the an nouncement of his candidacy: To My Fellow Citizens of Geor gia: # T have lately had eo many in quiries from friends in different parts of the State about my can didacy for the Court of Appeals that I think it due them that, without further delay, i should publicly declare my Intentions. I shall positively he a candidate In the Democratic primary next summer for a place on the Court of Appeals. T rider the rules of the primary, I will have to des ignate and run for tiie particular judgeship. In the last primary, in 1912, when I onoosed Judge Pottle, the strongest argument used against my candidacy was that Atlanta already had one of tire three judgeships, and was, there fore, not entitled to another. Despite this heavy handicap, I tied with Judge Pottle, but, in the State,convention, 1 withdrew my name* and allowed the South Georgia candidate to have a unanimous nomination. I do not propose to run again with this same handicap, and, therefore, 1 shall be a candidate for the un- explred term of Judge Ben H. Hill, of Atlanta. This position is now held by Judge L. S. Roan, also of Atlanta, who was appointed temporarily to the place until the voters of Georgia could elect Judge Hill’s successor. I do not intend to be gin my campaign for several months yet, but make this an nouncement now In response to the inquiries of my friends in At lanta. FINE TII STILL HEADS TEMPLE.

TURNER BEGINS FIGHT PGR [ " Electrician, Angered at Action of Aldermen in Turning Down In crease, Seeks Referendum. City Electrician Turner is busy preparing to have the question of the increase in the salary of hifc office re ferred to the voters. “I don't see what right a man like Alderman O. H. Kelley has to turn down a salary raise of an official elected by the people,” said Turner. VHe wasn’t elected by the people; he was elected by Council.” The electrician was piqued by the vote of Aldermen Ragsdale, Kelley and Warren, which killed his raise. According to City Attorney Mayson, the salary of the office must be fixed the year before election by a charter provision. Unless the electrician can get an election on the matteT before the first of the year or have a special meeting of the City Council called and the matter reconsidered, there seems tc be little chance for him to get the j Increase.
