POLICE JUDGE POLLOCK
WILL SEEK REEL ECTI0N

Although court business isn't what
It used to be in the old booze days,
Judge G. E. Pollock has decided he
wants his Job for another two years
and announced Tuesday he would
make the race along with the rest Of
the citv'B official family.
Dispensing justice, though it be
only in a police court, is too serious
a matter to let some amateur expert
ment with. in the judges opinion.
After national prohibition went
into effect the number Of cases in the
corporation court fell OF IS per
cent" said Judge Pollock. "rhe
number, however. S. getting back TO
the old figure again, due. I believe.
TO bOOtlegEing- We used TO have
from % 70 75 cases a day in court
In the three terms I have sat on the
bench here I have heard many
thousand persons say guilty or mot
guilty" and some OF them were re-
peaters. But I've tried to treat 'em
right"
Judge Pollock has been in Ell Paso
