During this employment he attended the pregon I -aw school, from which institu tion he was graduated. This' la the first . ,, public office which he has sought. . - In his talk to the club, Attorney Burke said: "I regard the municipal '.court one among the most important ' branches of the city government, and . contend that the law should be admin istered in this court With the same or- der, dignity and efficiency, that marks judicial proceedings in the higher courts. The law, as I view It, is not a social arm of vengeance, but an arm of de fense. Vengeance looks to the past while defense looks to the future.. The best administration of law is that which ... prevents and If possible makes the first offense the last one. In this respect I am ready to cooperate with each worthy organisation."
