address given on the program, at our

shevism has found such fertile fields
among the laboring classes. This
Buckeye state jndge knows the exact
state of mind of the industrial work.
for he has been one of them. A re.
cent issue of the Journal, at Dayton,
Chic, declares that the "story Of
Judge Harry N. Routzohn read like
a chapter taken from q typical Am.
.erican novel. His career has had
few parallels in the state. ~ He was
forced to leave school at an, early age
and became an apprentice at a black.
smiths shop. When about finished
in his ''teens'' he became street

was admitted to the bar he made ],
