for the alleged corruptlonlsts to obtain

SILENT ON RATE OF FARE
The failure of Thomas It. Smith, Re
publican Organization "harmony" candi
date for Mayor, to mention n. universal
G-ccnt trolley faro In the Indefinite tran
sit p.ledge which was one of the principal
planks In his platform, and the liberality
with which the head of tho Organization
slate made other pledges, were pointed
out today by lenders of the Independent
forces.
Mr. Smith Issued his platform last
night, after he had read It before tho
Republican City Committee earlier In
the day. It had the indorsement of the
committee.
SILENT ON RATE OF FARE.
His trinslt pledge did not specify
whether he favored the Taylor plans or
not and mad" no mention of the rate of
fare. It was:
The new Constitutional amendment,
if adopted In November, will provide
nmplc funds for transit and port de
velopment. In the case of transit,
the new high-speed, lines can be In
stalled and virtually completed dur-
Inr, Ihn f fnni" vnan -
Mr. Smith also declared himself In favor
of the early construction of the Conven
tion Hall, but did not mention his prefer
ence as to location.
HIS PRINCIPAL PLANKS.
The principal schemes embodied In the
Organization candidate's platform were:
Tin :irst duty of tho next adminis
tration should be to make every possi

works now under way, irrespective of
Hvhero they may be.
Increase of revenue can be found by
adjusting the various forms of taxa

water sfltem must be perfected.
Building operations must be encour
aged and new sewers nnd bridges
must bo built.
Tho ngltation of the advisability of
erecting a convention hall is now
uppermost In the minds of our people.
I deem it absolutely essential for the
city to provide a suitable site at tho
earliest posslblo moment, and to erect
thereon a building of substantial char
acter and nrtlstlc design for conven
tion purposes. If I am elected, this
convention hall shall have my early
and determined attention, and I shall
co-operate with the trado bodies to tho
end that this Important feature of our
city government and the advantages
of our city shall have the widest
publicity
Sewage disposal plants will have to be
constructed. A modern sewage dis
posal planl Is Imperative, and the
city cannot much longer postpone Its
building.
Tho many other Improvements,
such as Kalrmount Park, Municipal
Hospital, police and fire stations and
the completion of public worka to
which the city has heretofore pledged
Itself, must be Intelligently worked
out.
New police stations must be built.
Police protection must at all times be
adequate and, with this thought In
mind, my best efforts will be devoted
to have the police force largely In
creased, so that all sections of Phila
delphia will be amply protecica.
"New flro stations must be built."
Mr. Smith also pledged himself to work
In harmony with Councils. Speaking of
the vast sums to be spent for Improve
ments during the next four years, he
said, "With the advent of tho next
Mayor there must bo harmony with all
administrative heads, as well as with
Councils."
