Many Candidates in Race for Western Circuit Judges and Solicitor General
December 15 special report from Carnesville Georgia outlines four likely candidates for judge and a heated contest for solicitor general of the western circuit. Incumbent R. B. Russell of Jackson County will seek reelection to his current bench despite plans in Congress. Charles H.

Clark of Jackson County is thought to join. Possible other names include N. Lo Hutchins of Gwinnett and T. J. Shackleford of Clarke in the solicitor race.
