The old adage, IF you would catch
a fox set a FOX TO catch him." usual.
ly works out truly. In other words
one must match brains with those
OF the "foxiest" OF criminals.
That is the reason Harry Keidan
is a candidate for the Republican
nomination for judge of the record
er's court. He knows the ways OF
criminals as well as any other man
In the city. having had to do with
such cases for Ave years as assist.
ant prosecuting attorney. He has
had charge OF some of the most
important prosecutions OF criminal
cases that have reached the prose
cutor's Once. AS for convictions,
he has an exceptionally high aver
age. He has studied his cases In
an effort to learn the truth. His rec
ord shows that he has not sought a
victim. but always has sought the
truth.
In handling criminal cases Mr..
Reidan has marked up many convic-
tions OF panderers He handled the
last big campaign against this sort
OF offender and so deadly was his
aim that the crime has been greatly
leesened. He also had charge OF
the cases against those accused OF
contributing 10 the delinquency OF
minors and had an astonishing num-
Der OF convictions.
Mr.. Keidan conducted the cam
paign against Insurers and came near
stamping this evil out OF Detroit
His work against the loan sharks
attracted nationwide attention. He
distinguished himself. also, by max
ing war against the medical auacks.
Among those who fell before his on
slaught were Drs. X. a X. He OBJ
tanned conviction against them
in the nrst court and when IL was
carried to the highest court in Mich
igan the conviction was upheld.
Mr.. Keidan has handled many OF
the most important individual cases
a. recent years. and has had high
percentage OF success.
All OF which doesn't mean that
the candidate wants victim, but
means that he goes thoroly into the
case. The same characteristics that
have made him successful prosecu.
tor for several years, his friends
hold. will make him q successful
Judge.

HITCHCOCK

ON SUNDAY
Audience Is Disgusted

"CURTAIN SPEECH"
Comedians Popularity
Given Hard Jolt
By Incident

There were many persons In the
Detroit opera house Monday even
ing who emphaticaiiy resented Ray
mond Hitchcock's alleged curtain
speech At the end of the second sc'
Of the musical comedy Betty" ia
which he maliciously asssiled Billy
Sunday.
When the comedian FIRST began 70
talk his hearers thought be was
making a few good-natured thrusts
~ the evangelist, who was In Bos.
ton holding meetings when Hitch
cock was fulfilling an engagement
In that city. But soon Hitchcock
remarks became as vindictive a.
they were uncalled for and In bad
taste. He launched on a TRADE
against Sunday. initiating the evan
gsiist's well-known platform meth
DDS OF driving home his preachment
against ain. but as Hitchcock pre-
ssnted a. there was neither humor
nor FUN about II, and II resolved
itself into something very near the
blasphemous.
A portion OF the audience ex.
pressed It's disapproval of Hitch.
cocks unbridied attack In Kisses
but the majority was loath to be
iieve that the comedian could be
serious and sat In silent amaxemeni
unwilling TO believe It's own ears.
Hitchcock has always had the
reputation OF being able 10 make q
clever and humorous curtain speech
and this fact made his action Mon.
day evening seem entirely unac.
countable The TRADE against Sun
day was spropos of nothing that had
gone before In the show, and was
evidently q malicious. premediated
attack for some real or fancied
grievance against the evangelist.
The speech had the effect OF put.
ting q damper upon the third act
OF Betty" and there was little ap.
plsuse. A the audience left the
theatsr on all sides was heard
strong disapproval OF Hitchcock
words and many expressed the opin-
Ion that the comedians popularity
as q stage entertainer In Detroit
had been hurt beyond repair.
