drive for the 81 "Clean Benc
More than 121 900 signatures on
petitions for the candidates were
filed Monday with County Clerk
Michael ]. Flynn by Zalmon H.
Garfield, campaign manager for
the Progressive Party, which the
Clean Bench" slate represents.
Having won their right to run
for judge, however, the progressive
candidates prepared to fight any
attempt by the two major parties
to rob them of place on the
ballot
THEY announced themselves
alert to the possibility that the
major parties, which have upheld
the coalition" slate for % years,
might attempt to have them dis
qualified, in order to deprive the
people of choice in the selection
of judges.
Any such move would take
place in the face of public ex-
preston Of support for the ''Clean
Bench" Slate by civic figures in
Guiding Judge Samuel Heller of
Renters Court, Professor Kenneth
c. Sears of the University of Chi
cago law school, Irving H. Flamm,
prominent lawyer. and DIR. Curtiss
D. MacDougan, Northwestern Uni
versity professor.
During the petition drive, more
than 10000 voters had signed pc
titions for the Progressive Party
candidates, but 10000 technically
faulty signatures were eliminated
during screening at campaign
headquarters. Only 10000 sigma
lures were required by law to win
place on the ballot for the pro-
gressives.
OPPONENTS of the slate had
until Saturday, Aug. %, to file
objections with Flynn.
If any objections were filed, the
county canvassing board would
then begin its investigation next
Monday: The board is composed OF
County Judge Edmund X. Jarecki,
who is chairman, States Attorney
William j. Tuohy, and Flynn.
The board, under the law, is re-
quired to decide the contest in
time for the printing of the jul
dicial ballots. Most objections are
investigated and ruled on within
two weeks, however.
FOLLOWING the careful screen
ing at campaign headquarters,
Garfield declared that all faulty
signatures had been eliminated be-
fore the petitions were filed.
1.-THE petitions we filed" he
said. ARE absolutely valid. They
comply with every technical re-
quirement of the law.
s'We are aware, on the other
hand, that the Democratic and
Republican parties, which have
robbed the people of their choice
by maintaining the vicious and
corrupt coalition system for so
many years, may attempt to force
our candidates off the ballet. They
will not succeed in any such at
tempt"
A ORA TIC Iast-minute
weekend mobilization of labor,
church, fraternal, and civic or
CARNATIONS had brought the petit
ton drive to a smashing climax.
Tens of thousands of signatures
were secured at beaches, parks,
and busy intersections, despite
blistering temperatures that made
the slightest activity uninviting.
By Monday morning, however,
the petitions-nearly 5000 of them
had arrived at campaign head
