handle is hein.barjournals/chicbar0010 and id is 1 raw text is: THE CHICAGO BAR ASSOCIATION RECORD PUBLISHED MONTHLY Vol. 10 CHICAGO, OCTOBER, 1926 No. i THE JUDICIAL ELECTION-AN OPPORTUNITY The Bar Association is just now entering upon a new year of activity. To justify its existence it must during this year make some progress towards promoting. the great purposes for which it was established. Its usefulness in promoting the due administra- tion of justice must be increased; social intercourse among its members must be cultivated; the honor and dignity of the pro- fession must be maintained. Its influence, however, will be com- mensurate with the zeal displayed by its members in furthering these objects. Every member must help. The coming judicial election presents to the Association the first opportunity of the year for action. Last June it went to the effort and expense of a bar primary to determine its preference for candidates for judicial office at this election. This expressed pref- erence may be an invaluable guide to voters but so long as it remains buried in the files of the Association it is nothing. In some direct way it must be brought to the voters. The Associa- tion and its members, alone will do it. Accordingly, the Board of Managers has decided actively to support these candidates, a step in which it should have the co-operation of every member of the Association. Already contributions have been solicited, but a contribution should be only the beginning. Members of the Association provide innumerable points of contact between the Association and the voters. Consequently the duty of each member is clear. He owes it to the public and to the Association to present personally to voters of his acquaintance the list of candidates which represents the choice of the Association. By so doing he will fulfill a duty to the community and help the Association to increase its usefulness in promoting the due administration of justice, one of the purposes for which it was established.
