Rodriguez, who attended the National University in Colombia for three years before coming here, said yesterday that class differ- ences are less striking here than in Latin American countries.

Fortified with several years of successful experience as a practicing attorney, Jay H. Payne has spent the\major part of his adult life in our judicial service. As Municipal Judge in Ann Arbor he has done an outstanding job, always enforcing the law strictly and fearlessly but ever dispensing justice humanely and impartially, with equality to all, and without regard to the color, creed, politics or social position of the persons appearing before him. "To do the best judicial work, or even to learn the best methods for doing it, years of research and experience are required. Many judges do good work from the beginning of their service, but as in other work, all can learn to do better work in the hard school of experience. The policy of advancement from a position of lesser responsibility to one of greater, such as prevails throughout industry and other fields of human activities, should apply to our judiciary." -Taken in part from the journal of the Aaterican Judicale Society ,JUDGE PAYNE HAS HAD M ANY Y EA RS OF JU)DICIAL EXPERIENCE--- '4 I You'll look like a Breath of Spring A in NAVY ... m \. - f - * \, } . i' . w I II I I OR PASTEL WASHTENAW COUNTY HAS HAD MANY YEARS IN WHICH TO OBSERVE THE QUALITY OF HIS JUDICIAL WORK--HE HAS PROVEN HIMSELF TO BE A GOOD JUDGE--HE WILL BE AN EXCELLENT CIRCUIT JUDGE---HE IS LOGICALLY THE ONLY MAN IN LINE --- HE HAS EARNED AND DESERVES PROMOTION.
