JUDGE WILLIAMS IS
GIANT YET A RUNT.
Candidate for Supreme Court Is
6 Feet 8 Inches and
Weighs ESQ.

Judge Fred L. Williams of Joplin,
6 feet 3 inches tall and who tips the
beam at $50 pounds and is the runt of
his family, yesterday was in the Cape
comforting with local Democratic lead
ers with reference to his candidacy for
Judge of the Supreme Court.
81 am the runt of the family, be-
cause have a brother who is a half
inch taller than l and weighs about 10
pounds more" remarked the Judge.
Judge Williams was accompanied in
the Cape by Ernest A. Green of Pop
lar Bluff, a candidate for the Demo-
cratic nomination for Attorney Gen
eral. Mr.. Green was the first candi-
date of any party to file notice of his
candidacy in the office of the Secretary
of State.
He is a graduate of the law depart
ment of the University of Missouri
and has twice been elected prosecuting
attorney of Butler County. He is a
son of the well-known Missouri Pacific
attorney.
For a few months during Majors
administration as Attorney General,
Mr.. Green served as an assistant and
was re-appointed by Barker to serve
until May, 1914, when he resigned to
enter general practice in st. Louis.
He attended the Baltimore Democra-
tic convention in 1912, where he voted
for Champ Clark for President. He
now lives in st. Louis.
Judge Williams since January 1,
1913, has been a Missouri Supreme
Court Commissioner, doing work ex-
actIy similar to that of the judges
elected by the people. When the court
got behind with its work, four COM
missioners were created to do Judges
work and aid in catching up with the
court. When Williams was appointed
he completed an uneXpired term of
Judge Henry Bond, resigned.
After serving three years as COM
missioner, he was re-appOinted by the
Court by unanimous vote. He now is
candidate for Judge in Division No.
2. Since his work began in the Court
his opinions have attracted attention
because of their brevity and con-
ciseness.

ceive the vote from this committee,

the Council to pass another ordinance
creating them.
Mayor Rage yesterday morning
received Il communication from Will
liam r. Compton, bond broker, of St.
Louis, making inquiry concerning the
fire department bonds which were
voted upon yesterday. Steps will be
taken to advertise the sale of the
bonds.
By the terms CT the ordinance, the
money provided by the bonds will be
spent entirely upon fire apparatus and
in putting the present fire station in
condition to accommodate the new
equipment.
Between $4,000 and 10000 will be
expended in the purchase OF the motor
trucks, one of which will be a large
combination truck and force pump
developing 40 horse power. The
other truck will be lighter hose truck
similar to the equipment now drawn
by horses.
Three thousand feet of hose will be
acquired and saddles will be provided
for hanging the hose up to drain and
dry out after it has been used.
Combined with the revampment of
the fire apparatus, the fire department
will be reorganized under the Mayors
direction and steps taken to place it
on a high plane of efficiency.
