But it is alse true that usually such a forfeiture of Pobsy lie confidence is due to the attitude «sal actions of a small minority of the in- dividuals composing the group concerned. It-can not be denied that in recent years, particularly, the legal profession has to @ considerable degree lost caste in the opinion of a large element of our citizenship. Even the judiciary, in many instances, has not been held beyond re- proach. Justly or unjustly, the feeling has grown that pettifogging and sharp prac- tice have been too much in evidence, thereby delaying if not entirely defeating the ends of justice. : It is refreshing, then, to note that the American Bar Association itself, at its re-| cent annual convention in Milwaukee, took ! cognizance of this situation, and will move | to correct it. President Evans courageously | stated the case to his fellow lawyers in al candid address, in which he said: “Tt seems better to recognize and dea}! with ‘the attitude of the public as it} actually is, and not as we wish it were. For instance, the public believes that - harbor and otherwise encourage crooked | —_ lawyers; and we cannot enter a convinc- ee ing denial of the charge. We have not} harbored or encouraged them in any ae rect or affirmative way, but we do know and the public knows that we have not | tried very hard to protect the public from | the ravages of unworthy lawyers.” H Obviously it is up to the reputable | members of the bar, who are in the vast | majority and have the power to do it, to clean house whenever and wherever cir- | cumstances make such action necessary. 1: they do not do it, they have only them- selves to blame if the public shall continue | to look askance at the legal profession ar | a whole. | SPEAKING OF TOURISTS \ (Miami Daily News) Russell Kay, comments are a bright spot weeklies and small dailies, whose homespun, neighborly in orny Florida was discussing the pro- motion of tourist business in a recent column. The smaller cities, with necessarily modest advertising appropriations, he pointed out, cannot hope to make much of an impression in the national field, But they can get excellent results, he believes, by traeted by larger campaigns and, with liberal space in larger Florida dailies, persuading them to “stop Then he adds a few words on courtesy every Floridian might well ! over” before returning North. consider: Another thing you ean do, and it won’t cost a eent, is show these folks a good time.
