Cmnnrsunan 1oeirr' ntlrtte.ri hrfmr

Ucntlenicn nf tltr vommitlrt:
The circumstance!) under which we
meet tncln.v are so unusual nnd the
public interest therein so marte'd thnt
I nsk vour Indulgence for the frank
lie-swith which I state m position in
Ibis campaign. I.urly in August at
the suggestion of leading Phllttdcl
phtiins, i became n candl'Jiite for the
Republican nomination for Major.
lj declaration made Independently
of any of the generullj reeognled He
publican leaders and inviting the op
position of some, Imolvc'd the close
of mv congressional 1 nicer nnd the'
burning of all political bridges iu
Philadelphia behind tne. My candU
ilacj was Induced incidentally by a
determination to oxereome factional
ism in (he Keptihllcan p.irl.v and to
unite It on a representative basis.
Iluf the big idea, was to re-establish
national good will towurd (he city of
Philadelphia, anil under the new rlty
charter to work out to the satisfac
tion of a majority of the people the
big problems, constructive, civil mid
moral, that fnirl.v or unfairly, hail
1 been charged up as delinquencies to
the present and past administra
tion. htrong. Independent .Men Needed
"I. knew that big. strong, inde
pendent men would lie needed for this
work; that new forces must be
brought Into notion along with the
faithful servants of the citj. and that
momentni ily perhaps existing politi
cal methods would suffer 11 tempornrj
shook, but I did not believe then, and
I do not believe now, that lojitl meni
beis of the Republican parlj would
sh.v at am legitimate effort to bring
honor to Hint partj b.v improving the
municipal service.
"I had nol been known in politics
as a 'reformer,' n designation some
times unworthily appropriated and nt
olher times itniiistl.v withheld from
men in public life who do their dut.v
consclciitiouslj , hut mv voluntary
and undictnted cnndicHio.v was
promptl.v indorsed In the lommittee
of one hundred, the Republican Alli
ance, the Town Meeting part.v and
other good citizens, some of them
regular Republicans, some Independ
ents and some Democrats
These organizations and indivi
duals advocated the principles for
which I stood a citj free from con
tractor nile. the diminution of police
men and firemen from politic s . the
suppression of graft in ofliilnl life,
tlie reduction to a minimum of crime
and vice nnd the separation from the
public service of those encouraging
one or the other, and the centraliza
tion of tlie citj's business, lineiicial
and constructive activities ut the City
Hall under the direction of the .Mayor,
a idlucod council, nuiiic bodv uiid'of
ticials competent and re.nl.v to dedi
cate their services to the public wel
fare as roiitcuinlntcd bv existing law
and the provisions of the new city
charter.
M.v platform did not provide for the
elimination of the contiactor as such,
the faithful contractor who lives up
to his agreement to do the work for
which he has fairly competed nnd
which he is willing to do without tlie
exercise of undue political influence
being 11 necessars and commendable
servitor of the citj : nor did it call for
the severance from tho public service
o .hosT'mpoje who" avc been I
faithful in the performance of their
duty nnd wlm as I indicated through- '
oiit the oiunpuign should be made to
leel tlmt tlie city is willing to pay for
surli service on terms at least ecpinl to

For Party Organization
Let us not misunderstand each
other about Republicanism or party
organization. I am a lojal Itepub
liciin and a believer in parlv organ -
ization. I also hold the notion that
an active ami iieaitnj minorilj or
ganization is a good thing for the
people viincl helpful to the majoiity.
It spurs the iiinjorilj on and it helps
to keep itj clean.
Majorities sometimes become so
stiong as to suffer from the ease with
which things are clone iu the excess
of power. We nie all generally better
off when there is a busting minorit
keeping us busy and awake to our
changed eiiviinnineut.
"If jou men who are practical iu
.vour politics and who have fought
many battles thrown jour usual vigor
int.. this cuiiipiiign, giving every can
didate fiom top to bottom of the
tiiket juur loyal support, we will win
handsomely. The great primary
tight through which we have passed
maj have left some scars, 'but that
contest is over and we tire looking
for better things. As candidate for
Major, i have indicated that if elected
the sinme deal will be administered
without piejiidhc us to what bus gone,
befoi e.
We an not now in the business of
mushing enemies or serving friends.
The big thing is to ""t 'out the vote

MINERS PUT BLAME
L
Issue Statement at Indianap
olis E. E. Walling Declares
Strike Will Paralyze Industry
NOT 30-DAY SUPPLY IN U. S.
All blame for the breaking off of Hie
wage conference between tlie bituminous
con! miners nnd operators of the central
competitive field was placed nn the coal
operators in a lengthy statement of
Hie miners' position, issued todny.
The stnteinent was given out nt the
headquarters in Indianapolis of the
lnited .Mine Workers of America. The
joint wage conference met in l'tiffnlo
nipl Philadelphia a few dajs ngo.
Thirty Dajs" M-Ike Paralyzing
A thirty days' general strike by the
bituminous coal miners of the countrj
would parnlje American industry, ac
cording to K. P.. Walling, vice president
of the Peale, Peacock A: Kerr Com
pany, wholesale dealers in soft conl.
Mr. AValllng said today that the
bituminous coal trade believes Hint the
strike will be called. JIc does not be
lieve that it can last, however, because
of its crippling effect on the country.
, "There is not a thirty-day supply of
bituminous coal above ground, " said
Mr. Walling. ,
"Ititumiiious coal is vastly more im
portant to the industry of the country
thnu anthracite.
Will Stop All Trains
"Stop bituminous coal production for
n period of thirty dajs and you will
He up every ship at its wharf. You
will force every railroad in the country
to cease operating trains. You will
shut down every industry. Itacause n
prolonged conl strike would have so ter
rific nn effect on the nation's industrial
nhd economic life it is unthinkable that
the threatened coal strike, if it takes
ulace. should be permitted to continue
for n long time."
Mr. Walling pointed out thnt the an
thracite coal miners have withdrawn
from n position similar to that taken b.v
the bituminous miners, lioth branches
nf the coal industry have contends witli
their emplojers and the government
which run until the last elav of next
March, Itoth have demanded n (10 per
cent increase in pay and a six-hour,
five-day work week.
"Just recently," said Mr. Walling,
"the anthracite miners accepted the
view Hint the contract made In Wash
ington lasts until March 31 f.r until
tieace is declared. This eliminates the
danger of a hard conl strike.
Imports Kndanger Supplj
"The dangeis of a soft coal strike arc

be shipped from the country so fast
Hint it is difticult to keep up with the
country's needs,
"One day last week 1 saw a steani
shin loading coal at ISieenvvlch piers and
eight others waiting outside to take on
their loads : on the same day I saw
four steamships being loaded with coal
at a Port Itlfhinonil pier aiicl others
waiting their turn. The foreign ele
nuiiid for Aiueiii-nn conl is tremendous.
The price being paid is from spventj -
live cents to M a ton nuove tne pre
vailing domestic contract price,
"Hecentlj I was offered a contract to
supply 1 ."0,000 tons a month for n
year, and price no object. The offer
vvjh made b.v New York' biokers repre
senting Hie shipping companies, who
were in a position to guarantee ships to
handle Hie coal. We could make a elol
lur extra u ton on all our coal if we
wanted to go hack on our domestic cus
tomers and sell our coal for export."
Other dealers agieed with Mr. Wall
ing ns to the large epmntit) of coal
which is being shipped out of the coun
try. One dealer pointed out that the
coal going abroad is "not being used
to wnrin the pour people of the devas
tated ureas of I'urope, but is being sold
for industrial use."
"The government 'iraK anxious to
have as much c mil as possible sent
abroadi" said this dealer. "So much so
that it has removed the government war
tax on the freight chuiges when coal Is
