than 4,000 Jewish-owned homes
in Warsaw, valued at one billion

the Nazis since the invasion of

Monday, April 7, is a date to
be kept by every good citizen in
Wayne County. It is the date of
the general spring election when
voters will cast their ballots for
a County Auditor, for State
Highway Commissioner, for State
Superintendent of Public Instruc-
tion, for Supreme Court Justices,
for regents of the University of
Michigan and for about 35 ju-
dicial offices, including 18 cir-
cuit judges.
The only partisan county office
on the ballot is that of County
Auditor. Edward H. Williams,
chairman of the Wayne County
Board of Auditors, who has
served for more than seven
years as Auditor, is seeking re-
election on the Democratic ticket.
Auditor Williams has been en-
dorsed by the CIO, the AFL, the
Detroit Citizens' League, various
other civic organizations, veter-
ans' groups and religious and ra-
cial societies.

election. Mr. Murphy was elected
judge of the Circuit Court in
1932 and served ably until de-
feated by the Republican land-
slide.
Six years ago the Detroit News
said: "The election, insofar as
it caused the defeat of the one
Democratic judge, was unfair,
since that judge had made an
outstanding record, had shown
his thorough capacity and had
the endorsement of his colleagues
on the bench, and of the bar
associations. He was defeated,
not because of any deficiency
in himself, but because he was
a Democrat, rather than a Re-
publican."
Judge Murphy has been ap-
pointed, by Prosecutor William
E. Dowling, special assistant pro-
secutor to handle litigation in
connection with the George H.
Cummings estate. The Cummings
estate was left for the aid of
crippled children some years ago
and the bequest was never car-
ried out.
His many Jewish friends, both
in the legal profession and in
the city at large, in recognition
of the outstanding qualifications
which he possesses for the office
of Circuit Judge, are urging his
re-election to office.
