Judge A. E. Gordon
Popular Candidate
For Reelection

Swinging into the last lap OF the
campaign. Judge Arthur +. Cor
don, candidate for reelection as
Judge Of Recorders Court. at the
non-partisan election Monday
April /, is urging upon voters the
urgent necessity OF going TO the
polls and casting their ballots for
honest, courageous judges who
have the welfare Of the City OF De-
troit at heart.
Detroit, just emerging from the
depression, needs its best men in
public office" he tells his hearers,
nightly There has never been q
time when Law reinforcement was
more imperative, and when the
youth OF our city needed to be
surrounded by every possible safe
guard II they are to grow up 10 be
useful, prosperous citizens OF
Dynamic Detroit"
Rehabilitation work of the pro-
oation department OF the Record
er's Court Is cited by Judge Gordon
as one OF the best indications of the
value OF the present humanitarian
ideas promulgated by the present
Judges on the Recorders Bench
There are over 5000 cases undel
supervision OF the court. and tn
reports show that the vast MAORI
~ on probation are doing their us
most TO resume their former place
in society. For this reason. Judg
Gordon favors placing first offend
ers on probation. under str1c
supervision, rather than imposin
prison sentence whenever this
possible.

make It? The conference seeks an
answer to these questions.
II is proper that University To-
Gated in the heart OF the Great
Lakes area gives It's time TO such a
study. Our boys and girls can study
manufacturing and graduate with
a knowledge to deal with the prac-
teal needs of their people.
