Walton, Committoe of 100
Chairman, Urges Former Bald
win Chief for Director
GROOME FOR PUBLIC SAFETY
Pu fl Rtnff Carr?vontrt
Charlrsfnn. S. C. N'ov 12. John
Walton, ohnlrmnn of the rommlttcc of
one hundred, speaking, for htmarlf. An
nounced todn.v Hint lie favored the
drafting of Alba H. .Tghncon. former
president of the Itnlduln I,oroinotlve
tVorks. for the pot of director of eity
transit in the Incoming Mayor's rnhinrt.
Mr. Walton also nnnniinu'd lie fntnrrd
the appointment of Colonel John
Oroome n director of puhlie safety.
Mr. Walton is attendinq the Atl'nntle
deeper waterways contention ns n rep
resentative of the Philadelphia Cham
ber of Commerce and of the Krnnkfnrd
Business Jlen's Association. At the
samo time he let it he known that he
had talked nter the cabinet situation
very Informally with Major-elect Moore
and that plnns were agreed upon for a
conference on the subject in Philadel
phia between Mr Moore and a group of
reprcsentntitc members of the commit
tee of one hundred.
Leading Conferees
In this group till be the leaders who
urged Mr Moore to enter the mayor
alty fight. Among them will be Mr.
Walton, John C. Winston, Thomas
Itaeburn White and Cranklin Spencer
Edmonds.
Mr, Wnlton's most striking contri
bution to the discussion of cabinet pos
sibilities was the Alba Johnson sugges
tion. Mr Wulton pointed out that
while Mr. Johnson ns not an engineer
be was a man of broad vision and great
constructive abilities and he could re
tain expert engineering adtice whenever
required. This statement from Mr.
Walton was particularly interesting in
view of the fact that Mr. Moore re
cently held a talk with Mr. Johnson and
of the further fact that Mr. Johnson in
a speech at the T'nivorsity Club, clearly
indicated that he would "go the limit"
in giving of his time and service to the
public service.
Opposo Director Twining
Mr. Walton is strongly opposed to
the suggestion thnt Director Twining bel
retained. .Mr. alton also announced
that he opposed all suggestions that men
like Harry J Trainer, of the Third
ward, and James A. Carey, of the Fifth
ward, leaders in the Republican Al
liance, he appointed to pots of cabinet
distinction. Mr. Wnltoji feels certain
that Mr. Moore will be guided more
by public sentiment in this matter than
by political considerations and expedi
ents which may be advanced either by
the Varcs or by the Alliance.
The Alliance is composed of fol
lowers of Senator Penrose. Mr. Wal
ton does not believe that Senator Pen
rose will talk cabinet appointments with
Sir. Moore, though he believes that the
senator will send his puggebtions in
through intermediaries.
Another point brought into relief by
the Interview with Mr. Walton was that
he favors the reappointment of flcorgc
S, Webster as director of wharves
docks and ferries. Director Webster
is here attending the convention. It
has been charged that the reappointment
W Director Webster would be a con
(VmIoii to the Vnres, inasmuch as Mr.
Wybstcr now holds office under the
Smith administration. Mr. Walton
feels that if this appointment will please
the Vnres, well and sood.
Evans Receptive
It was learned on good authority
that Powell Kvans, of the committee
of one Hundred, is a receptive can
didate for the succession to Director
"Wilson. This was regarded as ex
plaining whnt opposition there is to
Colonel Oroome so far as some in the
committee of one hundred are con
cerned. Mr. Walton's preference for
Colonel firoome. considered in connec
tion with other indorsements the colonel
has received, explains much of the
groundwork for the general belief that
the Mayor-elect will name the colonel
as the next director of public safety.
Mr. Wnlton is onnoaed to the sug
gestion that A. Lincoln Acker be named
to the post of director of public works.
He is opposed to Mr. Acker for any
office In the cabinet.
The chairman of the committee of
one hundred does not view Ernest L.
Tustin with any serious disfavor for the
office of director of public welfare. He
takes somewhat a similar position with
regard to the belief that the Mayor-elect
will name David 3. Smyth as city
solicitor.
Favors White for Solicitor
Nor does he doubt that Murdoch
Kendrick can have almost any office in
the cabinet. Mr. Walton, however,
would like to see Thomas Itaeburn
White as the new city solHtor.
Mr. White was one of the active
spirits in the new chnrter movement
and is specinlly fitted as an adviser be
cause of his familiarity with the
charter act. Mr. Walton said George
W. Coles, for the office of purchasing
ngent under the new administration,
would have strong support from mem
bers of the committee of one hundred.

From Public View
Continued From Pnee One
during the war was prepnring the way
for the nationalization of railways.
The agitation for the riumb plan
was the signal for the return of Mr.
Gompers from Europe. Mr. Gompers
was committed to the nationalization
of railwaj.s by resolution of the Amer
ican Federation of Railways. Rut he.
was not committed to the Plumb plan
or to the immediate pressing for na
tionalization. He avoided committing himself and
adtiscd the brotherhood leaders to go
slow His advice and their own judg
ment that the time was not ripe for
agitating for the Plumb plan resulted
in the nbnndonmcnt of all efforts at
agitation nnd the confining the league
to organizing the country.
During the industrial conference the
radicals in Inbor generally anil in the
Plumb pian lengue waited and hoped
for a turn of events that would throw
Mr. Gompers over to radicalism, and
they hoped that if the conference failed
Mr. Gompers would go the whole dis
tance and embrace the Plumb plan.
Plumb Plan Is Dead
At the same time the Plumb radicals
saw hope in the mine workers' move
ment. The miners were also demanding
nationalization and holding a sugges
tion of an alliance with the rniltray
brotherhoods on the lines of the Rrltish
triple alliance. It was suggested to
Mr. Plumb that he quit the ieague nnd
take his plan over to tne miners, be
cause of the conservatism of the rail
way brotherhoods.
Hut the break-up of the industrial
conference hns. not had the expected ef
fect. On its heels followed the coal
strike and the defeat of radicalism.
Radicalism failed in every effort. Mr
Gompers, while discredited with the
public by reason of his concessions to
radicalism, is likely to remain con
servative and retain his control of the
American Federation.
He was not likely to give his support
to nny radical program like the Plumb
plan for the nationalization of railways,
especially when no practical advantage
could come from agitating a question
which had just been settled by legis
lation. The fate of the Plumb plan is likely
to be decided in the immediate future.
It must wait for the conference of the
American Federation which Mr. Gom
pers has called for next month. Rut
this is not likely. So far as organized
labor is concerned the Plumb plan ap
pears certainly dead.
Its authors may abandon it until the
temper of the public changes. Or they
may agitate- for it independently of the
labor unions, with some organization
for the democrntizatiou of industry. Rut
the present propaganda with the
brotherhod leaders sitting on the lid and
the radicals growing steadily more im
patient cannot go on long.
F0UST ASSAILS FOOD BILL

URGE BERGER BE DEPORTED
Minneapolis, Nov. 12. Election of
nationnl officers and the policy to be
adopted toward granting a cash bonus
to service men and women were the
two questions of major importance be
fore the delegates to the first conven
tion of the American Legion at the
closing session today.
So far the chief concrete suggestion
on a bonus recommendation to Con
gress has come from Chairmnu Henry
D. Lindsley. of the committee, propos
ing that each veteran receive wnr serv
ice adjustment bonds to au amount
equaling .$1 for each day in the federal
service. This has been hotly debated
in committee, as the issue seems to be
clean-cut between those who believe in
Fome form of bonus nnd those who

Urge Military Houscclcaning
A "thorough houseclennlng of the in

committees of Congress was authorized to
use the Legion military policy declara
tion as a basis for organization and
training of the future army and navy.
The proposed national citizen army
would be subject to civil authority,
according to the Legion resolution.
An auxiliary composed of mothers,

plause. Another resolution was presented
asking for the expulsion of Edward
Voight, of Wisconsin because he had

after a delegate had argued that it was

REED RENEWS ATTACK
By the Associated Press
Washington, Nov. 12. A movement
to limit Scnnte debate on the peace
treaty by invoking the cloture rule was
inaugurated todny by Democratic lend
ers. A petition for cloture, requiring
but sixteen signatures for submission,
wns circulated by the administration
leaders and soon had more than double
the nccessnry number.
Some Republican leaders said they
would support the Democratic clotuto
proposal, which bad been circulated
after consultation between leaders of
both parties.
The petition paid that in the opinion
of the signers thero was nn effort to
obstruct the treaty by undue debate,
and asked that the cloture rule, limit
ing each speaker s time to one hour, be
invoked. Adoption requires a two
thirds vote.
It was explained that the cloture pro
posal, if presented today, could not
come to n vote before next Friday, being
required under the rules to lie over
for two days.
The cloture move followed charges
thnt a filibuster had been organized by
tne ircnrj-N lrreconcunuie iocs, seek
ing to prevent final action at this ses
sion.
Senator Reed. Democrat. Missouri.
resumed his attack on the treaty when

slowly, making long pauses at times to
sort over the stack or papers on his
desk. Additional time wos tnken up
by n quorum call on the motion of Sen
