Pike County, Pa.; Atlantic City and Camden, S. C., are some of the places ho visited. Florida is the present objective.

Th Mnvnr ects J12.000 and spands a rreat part of his tlmo preparing to no wav, Boltif? away, Maylnj? away, prepar InK to return nnd returning. Somo of tho boys around tho Hall like to refer to him as tho absent Mayor. VNLKSS WAIl LOOMS He has Just announced that today he leaves for Florida ; that Is. "If tho national crisis does not become too rerlous. so ns to make hl3 presence necessary in Phila delphia " , . , Although ho mado effort to prevent his actual destination nnd tlmo of his de pnrturo from becoming public this tlmo.. the Mavor It was learned, left tho North Philadelphia station at 11:23 this morn lnc. Ono of the City Hall gentry was trying to ho funny It was nn nntl-Varo man. "T(K," ho said, "tho Mayor's got to the point now where ho thinks he's nn Im portant porson In considering tho Interna tional relations Such llttlo things ns finances are a nldo Issue. 'If the national crisis does not bcomo too serious !' Gosh ! No wonder bo's Just waking up to the wny he's muddling the-'flnnnces. Who wouldn't tie behind tho times if bo traveled so much?" Porno of the foregoing quotations mav be lot clown to factional prejudice, but It Is a facf Mr. Smith has done a bit of Journeying In tho thirteen months ho has keen Mayor. Thero was that first notable trip to Au rusta, On., nnd Aiken, S. C. for almost two weeks away hack In last March. That was some two months after Mr. Smith took ofUce. and what, with transit worries and nil It wai then that tho Mayor thought of scuttling tho Taylor plan bo felt ho needed It.' He took some excellent company Freeland Kendrlck. .TImrny Hailett. Kd Vnre and other Jolly follows and went down South "where he golfed, rode horseback, had a visit from Ralph ningham and was other wise royally entertained. He came back "much refreshed " WEEK-END STUFF That held him for a while. There were, frequent short trips just week-end (.tuff that didn't count but the Mayor staved pretty closi to home until along about tho middle of July, when he motored up through Pennsylvania to New Vork State, whero one of his sons was In a military training camp This was not a vacation In the strict sense of tho word : It was simply a "visit" to n member of tho family nnd. Incidentally, tho Mayor compared notes with a predecessor In ofllco by calling on Rudolph Dlankenburg In the Poconos. Hut It, took almost two weeks, all the same. Then tho Mayor camo back and an nounced that his ofllco took so much time that he would have to forgo tho pleasure of a summer vacation. Ho did forgo It. too, but only for about a minute The nasty vice mess camo to a bead soon after because Director Wilson pulled oft that wholesale raid In tho Tenderloin, nml tho Mayor got out of range. Ho only went as far as Atlantic City, and when tho pur suit of questions got too hot In the hotel he took n, house In Pacific avenuo down In Chelsea. Strictly speaking, this Atlantic City ven ture was not a vacation. There were only a few weeks spent at the hotel and the Mayor was always In touch with his office, and only n, few months spent at the cottage In Chelsea and every week tho Mayor came to his office sometimes several days at a time. So If one takes the matter of vacation strictly by high standard, strictly by stay ing away from work for a long time, tho Mayor really had no summer vacation, and then It In unfair to mention Atlantic City at all, It Is all a question of standard. SLUMP IN VACATIONS By mtd-September. though, tho Mayor was securely back In Philadelphia again, and vacations weren't spoken of for quite some time. There were, It Is true, tho oc casional one or two day trips away maybe only as far as tho clubhouse or Reading or some other nenrby place but not until De cember was there a real trip. Then Su perintendent Robinson. Mr. Kendrlck. Friend Vare and some of tho boys suggested bit of shooting upstate. The Mayor thought It would do llm good and, bang I another two weeks. Two more months passed. Fatigue the laws of nature are Inexorable again as serted Itself, and tho Sunny South camo to mind. They chose Camden, far down In south Carolina. While they were down there golfing, riding, building themselves "P.
