Chicago, 111., Jan. )2.—Federal
Judge James 11. Wilkerson, a former
school teacher who helped crush the
most notorious gang in the United
States, was cited Tuesday for his re-
ward.
President Hoover announced his ad-
vancement to the Circuit Court of
Appeals, Seventh District, saying it
was part of the recognition due Fed-
eral officers for breaking up the ac-
tivities of the powerful Capone gang.
True to his background as a quiet,
j determined public servant, Judge
Wilkerson had nothing to say. He
has had little to say during the last
few years, gaining reputation from
his legal decision alone.
Only once has he expressed himself
at any length. Then, speaking of the
Capone gang, he said “this band of
outlaws exercises a coercive influence
which is nothing less than insurrec-
tion against the laws of the United
States.”
With this dictum, a man who had
been caught with a loaded pistol in
his courtroom, guarding A1 Capone,
was sentenced to six months in jail
for contempt.

At this, the beginning of the New Year, let 11s determine to
put forth more energy in our lfe’s undertaking, whatever it might he.
When our car “sticks” we exert every energy to pull out—if “life’s
car is stuck” we should do the same thing. The gain is all our own.
The time has come when we must labor earnestly and continuously
to make even a living, but let’s not growl about it—go about our work
and we will soon have the proper CONFIDENCE in ourselves as well
as others.
