This fact was brought out clearly
in brief survey which we made of a
typical manufacturing industry. Fig.
ures for 1914 showed that twenty.
seven Of the larger manufacturers
earned only ga per cent on their CAPT.

ture which appeared was the fact that
fifteen of the concerns. with an invest.
ment Of ss.OO0,OOO, did not charge of

BURKE IS RIGHT
Chief Justice of Superior Court
Strikes Popular Chord in Ad-
vocating Joint Judicial and
Aldermanic Elections.

The defeat of good men and the
election of some insists last June
showed the value of isolating judicial
elections in Chicago.
Richard +. Burke, chief justice of
the Superior court of Cook county,
says aldermanic elections in Chicago
have progressed TO a point too near
nonpartisanship TO justify an argu.
ment it would be unwise to hold the
election Of judges in April.
He favors the bill which has passed
the Senate in Springfield which would
transfer the election of Superior court
judges from June and November to
April.
He gives these reasons for his posi-.
ton:
A larger percentage of the vote Is
cast at the aldermanic election than
at the June elections.
Separate ballots will be provided
tor the judicial nominees, thereby to
degree separating the judicial and
aldermanic elections.
Only In a few sections of Chicago
uo's par HSuit III lH'
election OF aldermen,
The theory of June elections-that
better type Of men would be chosen
tor the bench-has not always been
justified by results.
Saving of many thousands of dol
lars in election expenses.
1T is an unfortunate fact that the
public shows lack of interest in Judi
cial elections which borders closely on
the dangerous" said the judge
Wednesday. The system OF choosing
judges at a separate election was in
augurated with the hope the public
would forget craftsmanship and use
greater discrimination in selecting
men for the bench
The plan has not worked as was
expected. There has been little, II
any, increase in public interest in the
judicial elections, II cannot be denied
that some Of our most desirable can
dldates for bench positions have failed
OF election by few votes simply as q
result OF this lack OF interest
During the last few years our al
dermanic elections have lost their old
