WILL CHOOSE JUDGES
ENTIRELY FOR MERITS
BAR ASSOCIATION ADOPTS
WORKS RESOLUTION
Members viii Vote for Candidates by
Secret Ballot, Sending Their In
dividual Selections Through
the Mails

By a resolution presented by Judge
John d. Works and adopted by the
Los Angeles Bar association that or
ganization yesterday declared for nom
craftsmanship in the selection or judges
of the superior court. The Following
was adopted with only one dissenting
vote:
Resolved, first-That one of the chief
objects and purposes of this associa-
ton should be to establish and main
tain the highest standard OF judicial
and professional qualifications, integ-
rity and independence.
Second-That to accomplish this re-
suit the election of judges should De
wholly removed from political or par
tisan influences and their selection be
founded wholly upon their qual1fica-
tions and fitness for the office without
respect to party ties or political affll-
iations.
Third-That the modern tendency to
nut the judicial office on a level with
purely political or administrative Of
fees in elections, the practice OF can
didates for such offices seeking the
aid of politicians, soliciting votes ana
attending conventions in their efforts
to secure nomination and election, is
wrong in principle, lowers the dignity
of the judicial office and is reproach
to our profession
Fourth-That 1t Is much to be re-
GREETED that members OF our pro1es-
sion should become political bosses and
sadly to be deplored that they should
allow their political influence, as such,
to be used in the election or appoint
ment of anyone to a judicial office.
Fifth-When this association can rise
above political and partisan influences
and prejudices and stand for the cleo
ton of, and individually support only
such candidates as are believed 10 De
fitted by qualification. integrity ana IN
dependence, for the Judicial oHlce' 1t
will be in position to ADVISE the mass
of voters as to the persons to be nom
mated and elected as judges or THIS
county, and not before.
After the resolution of Judge Works
was adopted Frank G. Tyrrell offered
the following resolution, which was
adopted with but four votes against 1t:
"Resolved, That the Bar association
name as many candidates Tor superior
Judge as there are vacancies and name
them with regard to fitness only ana
without regard to political affiliatlon,
and refer the candidates so named to
Ali the nominating conventions"
The privilege of voting on the selec.
tion of the association is to be confined
to members of the Bar association,
and will be by secret ballot, conducted
through the mails. This is in accord
ance with plans agreed upon by the
hoard of trustees. This primary cleo
tion will be conducted by committee
composed Of Lynn Helm, u u lie
Garmo and L. w. ROBINSON.
The ballots are to be sent to the
secretary July 81 and are to bear the
names Of the four candidates submit
ted to him by July %. The votes will
ha counted August and the four men
receiving the most votes will be the
recognized choice of the Bar associa-
ton.

DEPosIToRs OF OCCIDENTAL
BANK GET 25 PER CENT

Judge Monroe yesterday issued an
order directing N. Blackstock, receiver
of the Occidental Trust and Savings
bank, to pay to the depositors of that
defunct institution dividend of % per
cent on their claims. This was made
possible because of the receiver having
collected from the Bank of Southern
California $1,000 as compromise on

tion. The compromise was because of
a dispute over the business of the
claim.

STOP BATTLING OF WINDOWS.
Steel Springs Are Among Recent
Household Novelties.

woman who sleeps in house full
of rafting windows was delighted to
receive the other day a dozen bent
springs of steel for insertion between
the sashes and castings of rafting
windows. They are fiat at one end
and swell toward the other, thus
fitting themselves to any casing.
Another novelty is the radiator
brush. These are long or short and as
fiat and thin as can be, the bristles be-
ing wired in. They are the only things
that will clean a radiator, going be-
tween the various pipes and getting
out every bit of dust.
In lambs wool there are long
handled brushes of the wool for wip-
ing off wallpaper, and these take off
every bit of dust. They are also use

ing. All are washable and come out
when rinsed and shaken as white as

Cracked Furniture.

Ugly marks caused by Sits or
cracked places on furniture are easily
filled in with beeswax and the mark
is never detected. In fact, this is how
furniture dealers cover such blenl-
1shes. First slightly soften the bees
wax until it is like putty, then press
firmly into the cracks, and smooth
evenly with thin steel knife. Of
course a putty knife is best for the
purpose, but dull case knife will do.
Sandpaper over the surrounding
wood finish, or color, and when the
furniture is vanished you will look
in vain for the blemishes. Often this
defect occurs in the panels of furni-
ture, headboards of beds and tables,
so try this method of mending and
you will be delighted with the result.
1t is better than putty since putty
soon dries, crumbles and falls out,
while beeswax remains forever just
where 1t is placed.

HAD TO GET STRENGTH FIRST.
Hard Worked Woman Not Ready to
Face Hired Girl Problem.

A Massachusetts man, whose busi-

line into Vermont, says that one even
ing he was a guest at farm house In
that state when he observed that the
wife of the owner-a poor, wan little
woman-was doing every bit of the
work around the house.
AS he himself put it, she did an
amount of work that would have put
an ordinary Massachusetts horse to
shame and he really felt like a vii

Feeling considerable compassion for
the woman, who looked as IL ready to
drop from oyerwork, the visitor
asked:
why don't you get help here?

To Carve Ham.

Ham should frst be cut through to

thin end. The slices must be very
thin. Always begin from the upper
side.
The fairest way by far, so as to
serve fat and lean evenly, is to COM
mence cutting from the center of the
thickest part in thin circular slices.
BY this means the flavor of the ham
is far better and 1t will prove more
