Hampton Moore I the type of man David II. Lane. nge of the Republican organisation, would like to see elected Mayor. .The congressman, according to the veteran Twentieth ward leader, pos Betses all the requisite qualinrations brains, practicnl political experience nnd "gastronomienl ability." The latter quality. say. Mr. T.ane, Who thinks it n serious factor in pick ing out n candidate for Mayor, is overlooked completely." While he would like to see the lead ers who make up the Kepublioan city committee take Congressman Monro as their candidate, Mr. Lane does not hesi tate to announce that he will abide by the decision of the majority of those leaders. "I will be regular as I have always been and go with the majority." he Mid. Will Not Complain "I never complain about the candi date, although sometimes I have swal lowed tbingB which did not suit me at all." In the eyes of Select Councilman Rhnrle.il Kecer. organization leader of the Seventh AVard, A. Lincoln Acker is the "ideal man" for Mayor. ir. c,,, v,. W if he tnmvn that I " ' """ " " " . he will be for the renro-e-iuuepenui'in choice if a "practical man" shall be Kplected. but he will have "nothing to do" with any reformers. The Seventh Ward leader also so fur has declined to enter into any deal with the Varc forces by which he and Select Councilman William McCoaeh would receive united support as coun cllmanic candidates in the second dis trict. Mr. Lane is celebrating his eighteith birthday anniversary today. Goes to Atlantic He went to Atlantic City early Saturday. The rush of politicians to the shore Saturday gave rise to reports of a big conference by the Vare leaders to pick a mayoralty candidate. If there was any conference it was held by telephone. Most of the big leaders on the Vare side spent the day in different sections of the resort. Scores of politicians, representing all elements, stopped at the Strand to con gratulate the veteran leader of the Twentieth ward. He held court in the lobby of the hotel. Spry and active for a man of his years he had but one worriment. Mrs. Lane Is HI. The two Vares. Senator Edwin II. and Congressman William S.. were the first. They saw Mr. Lane Sat urday evening. Polities, according to the three, was not discussed. Some time ago. Mr. Lane announced that he would make known the type of man he fnvors for mayor. When pressed to explain, be announced that Congressman J. Hampton Moore em bodied bis ideals. Career In Congress But like Senator David Martin he also takes the view that Congressman Moore would "be a fool to give up n bril Hant career in Congress to be torn apart as Mayor of Philadelphia. "I have always been keen for the little fellow with the big head." was the description applied to Congressman Moofe by Mr. Lane. "There is only one aristocracy in this world, the nristocracy of brains nnd 'Hamp' Moore has a head chuck full of brains. "He has political experience and he also was a newspaperman. "Another thing I like about Con gressman Moore is that he is a battler in the arena. He can stand up and fight." "Would you be for Mr. Moore if the Kepublican leaders picKea some one else?" he was asked. "No; then I would be for some other candidate the man agreed on by a con ference of the leaders." The veteran was in a fine humor and 'showed Irritation only once. That was 1 L- .... ,A It ,1... T-J , i- WnPU IIC V1U.IS UIk-U 1L mu lUUVJICIHlPniS had any chance of nominating a can didate. He emitted a long "bah." "The organization has forty. two wards,'' he exclaimed with an air of finality. Then he reverted back to the mayor alty subject. "Congressman Moore has a qualifica tion that too often is overlooked in picking a candidate for major, the 'gastronomical ability.' " His interviewers smiled. "I am serious," continued Mr. I.ane. "Look bow many men have died in tbelr tracks trying to keep up with the procession of bnnquets tendered a Mayor of Philadelphia. "Poor Iteyburn could not refuse and sometimes accepted as many as three in yltations In one night. Mr. Rlnnken burg was n hardy old man when he be came Mayor, but he had to call a halt ,on the banquets.
