acllon to n "kick In the face" for tho

Major Issues Statement
The Mnjor'Svsfalcment, issued dur
ing the conference in written form,
ioiiows : j
"Yesterday's performance by the
minority members of Council was noth
ing short of legislative sabotage. These
men, i-,dwin 11. Lox and Joseph r. (Jalt
nry, First district; Charles D. Hall and
William McConch, Second district:
Isaac 15. Hetzell, Third district; David
0. Frankenfield, Fourth district; Simnn

portant city projects which their con
stituents tnvor, ana which are necessary
to the advancement of the city, particu
larly in the matter of trnnsportalion,
homing and essential development.
"They themselves had professed to be
for most of these projects. Some of them
nro dependant upon large corporations
and concerns which are vitally interest-1
I'd in these projects, wlilcli tucy voieui
to overthrow. It illustrates the length
lo rrhleh the old machine will CO to bol
ster up the old influence. But the Varcs
I'dunot come back, nnd from this time or
they will have to fight for every foot of
ground they hold. Tho public welfare

of the contractors or their satellites.
No Compromise, He Says
Tre Mayor was asked, lis he was leav
ing for the river trip, whether trerc
as any chnnco of the administration
eomprolnising with the other side.
"That statement speaks for itself,'
he replied. "Didn't you see that I
mllcd it legislative sabotago? Cun we
lompromise with that? Certainly not.
The Mayor was asked if the ndmin
hiratiou would bo willing to compromise
on the make-up of the bill, for final
passage.
"I know of no compromise," he re
plied. "That's up lo them. They
htvo kicked tho people in the face. They
have trampled on the people in their
nwu district. They have sent down to
defeat items for funds providing for Im
provements in which tho people of the
whole city arc deeply interested. It s
the worst kind of sabotage."
Senator Vare was asked to reply to
the statement of tho Mtfyor.
Has Hands Off, &iys Vare
"There is no foundation In fact,"
Senwtor Vnre replied, "for the state

DEVELIN'S LETTERS
GOT SIDETRACKED
Councilman Wonders if Some
thing Was "Put Over" in Mu
nicipal Court Questionnaire
WROTE TO EIGHT -JUDGES
Councilman .Iiuiics A. Develln. Inde
pendent and foe of President Judge
llrown's "Palace of Justice," has u
suspicion that he was finesed out of
obtaining the views of" judges of the
Municipal Court, other than .Judge
Ilrown, as to the wisdom of nllottlng
$1,000,000 in the loan bill to the court.
On Monday Mr. Develin sent by spe
cial messenger from his office at Fourth
i
iiiki i. uesiaiiL sirccis icihts 10 ilie cirih
judges in (iticstion. The letters were
given Into the hands of Arthur It. II.
Morrow, a friend of Senator Vnre and
one of tho chief clerks iu .ludse Brown's
court.
Mr. Morrow was asked to deliver the
letters to the judges pcr-ounlly. It was
pointed out to him that they must be
delivered personally, otherwise Mr.
Develin would not get the replies in
time fojBf terdny's scs-inn of Cuiim-it.
when herflttaeked the Municipal Court
item.
letters Are, Bcturued
At tho lime thut Mr. Develin was
speaking in Council jesterduy in op
position to the Municipal Court item
the letters were returned to his office
by the nostofllce for the icason that
postage had not been paid.
Inquiry wns made of Mr. Morrow us
to why tills happened.
"It was too late in the day to de
liver tho letters iiersnuall.v." leplled
Mr. Morrow, "ho I put them Iu the
outgoing basket. The incwngcr ,in our
office mi doubt looked upon them as
regular mail and sent them out in thut
wny."
Mr. Develin is wondering why Mr.
Morrow did not notice that the letters
boro no postage and that they should
hove been taken to the chambers of the
judges by one of the court messengers.
It wns pointed out in explanation that
it was obvious thnt the letters, being
addressed to all the judges but Judge
Ttrmvn. were not designed to iirouse so
licitude on the part of employes up-
pointed uy Judge ilrown.
"Smart," if Intentional
"It may have been entirel inno
cent." said Mr. Develin todn , "and u
blunder of some person. It it was in
tentional. It was very sinntt.'
The mulling of the letters without
postage prevented their being delivered
nt nil. to sny nothing of preventing
their being delivered iu time to get
replies before the meeting of Council.
The letter to each of the eight Judges,
duted September 27. was ns follows :
"Dear Sir May 1 ask you to Inform
me whether tho board of judges of the
Municipal Court has passed upon Judge
llrown's project! d building, of which
a sketch was published .esterday in
the Philadelphia Public Ledger?
"If the (iiiestioii it nut nu improper
one. will you ntlvise me whether or not.
apart from any action of the board of
judges., you individually approve the
inclusion of $1,000,000 additional to the
loan bill toward the-crcctiou of a por
tion of this building to bo used for the
Domestic llclations Court?
"Will vou kindly address your .an
swer to Boom 102. City Hall so that I
may receive It by 1 :"0 o clock p. m. to

thusiasm In West Virginia. The cu
thiisinsm was not personal to Mr.
Harding, whose quiet, unspectncular
campaign has left him rather unknown
to the great mas of the people.
Neither is It partisan enthusiasm, in
the usual Mnse. The public Is enthusi

sees in Mr. Harding the instrument for
making the change.
Tho. sentiment which supports him is
not so much Republican as anti-Demo.

ontl-Demm-rntic candidate's name hap
pens to be Harding. It might have been
something else nnd the crowds would
turn out In just the same way and tes

cuergy and thought.
