in the scale of justice measures that
come before him.
The described character herein is
in the person of Honorable William
r. Fetzer, who is a resident of the
9th ward and is a candidate on the
Crowe-Barrett ticket for denomination
as Judge Of the Municipal Court at
the primary to be held April Is. He
is a member Of the Chicago Bar AS
ISOLATION, the Masonic Fraternity
Jackson Park Lodge No. 841, Wood
lawn Commandery No. 70 Knight
Templars. He is high club man and
is we'll thought Of by men of that
type that contact gives them the OPP
portunity to survey his fitness.
Judge Fetzer is now presiding in the
48th Street Court at Wabash Ave
His record there given by the lawyers,
who practice in said court and the
fortunate or unfortunate litigant, is that
Of dealing absolutely fair with each
and every one who comes before him.
Particularly we are interested from the
fact that we have had the opportunity
to watch carefully his dealing with
the measures of men and women of our
group who come before him. He takes
the broad view that violator of the
law, whether he be black or white
must be weighed in the same manner
to all, therefore it is distinctive pleas
ure to recommend to the hundreds Of
thousands of voters in Chicago to lend
him their vote in appreciation of the
point of service that he may better
serve them. 1t means SO much to the
unfortunate who is picked up by the
police officer who many times out of
prejudice or d distorted mind makes
untruthful statements as to the char
acter of the prisoner, to have a man
like Judge Fetzer -sift out the facts
that the prisoners Of all types may
have fair and impartial hearing, thus
we urge the people to keep in mind
that he comes back to you thanking
you for past favors and asking
your aid in his denomination that he
may again become Judge of the Mu-
nicipal Court guaranteeing to render
to the people the highest Judicial
service.

BE ON YOUR GUARD AGAINST
MOTOR MORONS
By Chief of Police Morgan A. Collins

During the past week Chicago has
been menaced by an epidemic Of mo-
tor morons. The motor moron is Chi
cago's dead1iest criminal.
The police have been confronted
with many serious crimes by this class
Of criminals, the majority of victims
being young girls.
Here are some opportune sugges-
gestions to combat this menace:
Young women should never start
firtations in the street with slick
sheiks riding in smart looking cars.
Remember the saying: Handsome is,
as handsome does"
Young women are in great peril the
moment they stop and talk to these
sheiks; keep right On going.
If an auto stops alongside Of the
curb and stranger greets you with
Where are you going, girlie?" pay no
attention to the greeting. Do not walk
up to the car as you are in danger of
being kidnapped.
If the moron continues to annoy you,
take the license number of his car and

HON. WILLIAM r. FETZER
By Charles R. Stewart, Jr.

Hon. William R Fetzer, who will
be re-nominated and reelected Judge
of the Municipal Court of Chicago,
comes by birth from a small farm town
out in La Sale County back in 70.
Eager to equip himself he studied
arduously by the old dim light of
those days, graduated from the high
school of Ottawa, Illinois, then into
the University of Illinois from which
he proudly emerged with great honor.
Then a desire to become a lawyer
possessed him and he took the usual
prescribed course in Northwestern
University. The mere fact that law
yer has University certificate and is
admitted by due course to practice is
not evidence of his ability to mete out
justice adequately, but in the sketch
we present, the course pursued to &C
quaint himself with those that might
be fortunate or unfortunate enough in
the time of its future to be litigants
in the mind picture of the hope of
having become judge, thus he became
Assistant States Attorney under the
late John w. E. Wayman, where he
had the opportunity of the association
with the master mind of that Office the
Hon. Thomas Marshall, whose con-
struction of the law stands unchal-
lenged.
After retiring from the States At
torney's office he was elected alderman
from the old 9TH ward. In the course
Of service there observation Of oppor-
tunity and close application to the
duties of judicial position he became
a candidate for judge in 1920, was
elected and now comes back to his
constituency, the common people,
standing squarely upon his record as in
all branches of his court it has been
his effort to build constructively that
from the rendition Of opinions the
higher courts in their survey of the
same would sustain the decision that
had been given. He has Judicial
mind and judicial temperament which
are the essential qualities to weigh
