’ For
The people of Texas have always liked to promote public offi-
cials where promotion is due. Such is the just reward of all honor-
able, competent men. Being honorable, and pre-eminently qualified
for the place, as attested by his splendid record on the Court of Civil
Appeals at Waco where he now sits, Judge Alexander, candidate for
Chief Justice of our Supreme Court, was placed in the run-off pri-
mary by the people of Texas.
The present Chief Justice, Mr. W. F. Moore, is not seeking re-
election. Small town lawyer and brilliant judge that he is, Judge
Alexander will be a most worthy successor to Mr. Justice Moore.
Seeking election upon his own record as a man, a lawyer and a
judge, and not that of his father or anyone else, he respectfully 80-
li4it^ your support and influence.
Firty-seven years of age, a natRe Texan, he is strong and vig-
orous, mentally and physically. Writing over half of the opinions of
“the Court of Civil Appeals at Waco since he became one of the three
judges composing that court, he has, in addition, taught a course in
the Law School of Baylor University at Waco since 1920. It is said
thar his appellate tecord is exceptional and considered almost without
parallel in the state’s judicial history. Former Governor Pat M. Neff

equal to any who have preceded him.” »
Your faith in Judge Alexander will never be disappointed. What
higher recommendation can be given any man than to say that he is
a Christian, honest fair and intelligent; such recommendation is
unanimously given to Judge Alexander. •
He has served Texas ably and industriously as a trial judge and
an appailatf ^judge. His record merits the promotion; Texas needs him
as Chief Justice. Vote for kludge James P. Alexander for Chief Jus-
tice of your Supreme Court.
