of the Rapid Transit Co.. concerning
the operation of the Frnnkford 'li.
"Director Twining brought up n
number of points which he said should
be settled beforethe city proceeded
wlHi rnrtnln cnnJlmrtlon work. He
suggested that to complete nnd equip
the rond, taking over ccrtnin nroprrij
ns might bo required by the Phlladel
nliln Ttntuil Trnnnlt Co. under n lease
would necessitate the expenditure ot
perhaps S2.000.000 more tnan tue

"Mayor Moore stated that even if

hnd already been spent upon the Frank
ford '1 that the completion of it was
the city's only recourse.
"After ninny other points relnting to
nn Vndcnttnndlni; ns to n lene that

tnnt might form the basis of n lease.
Hope for Report
"There was no discussion of finance
during the conference except In declara
tion bv President Mitten and Director
Montgomery that the company wns not
in n position at this time to raise money
for extensions.
"The Mayor heltl to the point that the
Department of Transit should complete
and equip the road so that it will bo
ready for bidders, including the Rnpld
Transit Co. on Mich terms ns might
be made between the landlord o n com

BY HARRY IWACKEY
Has Not Opposod, but Will Not
Bo Controlled by Mooro,
Ho Doclaro3
NO QUAflTER TO BE GIVEN
. -
'A virtual, definnce nf Mayor Moore
wns given todny by Harry A. Mnckcy,
chnirmnn of the workmen's compensa
tion bonrd, In nnswcrlng tho Mayor's
charge thnt he is upholding the "con
tractor combine."
"I nm surprised nt the statement
nccrcdlted to Mnyor Moore nnd I
scarcely bellcvo he Is responsible for
nil of that," Mr. Mackcy declared. "If
ho Is, he has been misinformed as to
the facts nnd exnggerates my Impor
tance, "Outside my support of Judge Pat
terson for Mnyor( for which I have no
npology, neither myself nor my friends
hnve done anything hostile to the Moore
udmlnlstrntlon.
"Ah n matter of fact, every candi
date for the ward committee Jn the
Forty-sixth wnrd ran on n platform of
supporting the Mooro ndmlnlstrntion,
but I refuse to concede ihnt I must
bo controlled by him or his friends
in voting for the chnirmnn of the Re
publican city committee."
Answers Mayor's Threat
Mr. Mnckcy was asked ns to the
rhnrge by the Mayor that ho had lined
up stnte employes ngninst the city ad
ministration. "Yes." lie replied, "several stnte em
ployes have been in the wnrd committee
for years and they hnvc voted for me.
The mere fact that I nm chnirmnn of the
Workmen's Compensation Bonrd hns no
bearing on the independence of my ac
tion. "Mayor Moore's statement contains n
threat as well as n promise of reward if
I turn in for him politically. That docs
not appeal to m5 at nil. I am not to be
controlled either by my position ns
chnirmnn of the Workmen's Compensa
tion Jlonrd or by promises of rewnrd."
