PURELY TECHNICAL PARADOX

One of the speakers at the State
Bar Association meeting, representing
attorneys for the defense expressed
dissent from the judgment of the COM
munity and most of the sitting judges
with reference TO the utter impro-
priety of active participation by the
bench In practical politics. His argu-
ment was that it is paradoxical to
ask judges who are candidates for
second or third or other terms to
stay out of politics, and that, in any
case, the mingling of a Judge with
"the people" In political way is good
for the administration of Justice
The alleged paradox Is purely tech
meal There is no merit in the point
from the standpoint of reality and
fact A Judge can make his desire
for denomination known to his
friends and to influential citizens in
quiet and perfectly proper way
Many self Prospecting Judges have done
liz and, as lawyers say, what has been
done can be done. II Is not neces
sary for a judicial candidate to take
the stump, proclaim his wishes and
irrelevant political" views from tho
housetops, enater into ward fights or
resort to any Of the practices which
Judge Holden had in mind In con.
demning bench politics.

much depends on the definition Of the
tenn. Judges are not recruited FROM
fresh law school graduates. They are
generally men of experience and dis.
erection acquainted with affairs. As
members of clubs, as citizens. as golf
ers, as readers of newspapers and
magazines and books, they have
abundant opportunity to maintain ties
