DEMAND FOR MUNICIPAL LEGAL AID BUREAUS| St. Louis, Aug There is a de- mand in all the great ci of the Unit- ed States for the establishment of mu nicipal legal aid bureaus, Ernest L. Tus- tin, of Philadelphia. told the American Bar Association at its annual convention here today. Mr. Tustin - is director of public works in Philadelphia. He . said the purpose of such a bureau’ or depart- ment would be to enable the poor to ob- | tain justice and the foreigner to.be re- lieved from imposition, to establish .a place where the weak, helpless and ig- norant would have their wrongs righted. he development of a virile legal aid association within our great municipal- ities is a question of vital concern to ev- ery patriotic citizen,” declared Mr. Tus- tin. “The need has become imperative and its creation and careful develop- ment should be taken by all of our large cities. “In the past our best authorities have agreed that social injustice is respon- sible for the creation of more radical enemies to our government than -any other cause. “The mayor of one of our largest cit- ies, who has had great experience. has stated withi na few weeks that trifling misunderstandings concerning municipal and social injustice is responsible for 90 per cent. of the extreme radicalism in the country. “Immigration in the future will come largely from eastern European countries and the opportunity for imposition and unlawful practices will be ' much in- creased. ‘Despite the excellet vanced we believe that be -made .a municipal than connected with. the administration of our courts.
