If the judges were appointed according to the population of the cities New Haven would be entitled to four superior court judges. To the lawers of New Haven it seems that New Haven should have a larger representation on the superi- or bench that it has, especially in view of the fact that there are a number of lawyers in New Haven whose abilities to fill this high position cannot be questicned. Attorney Walsh, whose name has been injected by his friends into the list of possibilities, if not probabili- ties, for one of the places on the su- perior court bench, has lived in New Haven all his life, has a wide acquaint- ance in the city and a high standing in his profession.

Two judges of the superior court, Ralph® Wheeler and Marcus H.

The vacancy in the supreme court ‘will probably mean the elevation of one superior court judge fo the bench of the highest court in the state, thus making actually three vacancies in the superior court. A number of New Haven attorneys have been mentioned in connection Wwith places on the superior court bench among these being Talcott H. Russell,* James E. Wheeler and Edwin S. Thomas. In addition the name of Attorney Walter J. Walsh, law part- ner of Attorney David E.
