WON'T
ABANDON RACE
Kearny Mayoralty Candidate
Bids Defiance to Two
Rivals.

That the three-cornered fight for the
Democratic nomination for mayor in
Kearny at the primaries will exceed
any political battle ever waged in the
town was demonstrated today when
Councilman. William Greenfield. who
appears to be the ~favorite, was visited
in his saloon at Kearny and Woodland
n today by James J. Dunn and
Robert Bush. who are also in the race.
Dunn advised Greenfield to withdraw.
He said that he had filed his petition
today and was aiding Bush to secure
the necessary number of signatures for
his.
1t is said that both drew b~ank-books
and, flashing them in Greenfield's face,
asked him what chance he had against
them.
Councilman Greenfield fatty declined
to withdraw and told them that 1t
would be up to the people to decide.
He has been elected to the Council
three times and is confident of getting
the mayoralty nomination. A number
of voters were in Greenfeld's store
when his opponents attempted to per-
suade him to get out of the race.

The meeting had insisted upon Mr..
Mofhtt remaining as a candidate, but
today his public statement removes him
from consideration. 1t is unlikely that
any opposition will develop in the Re
publican or Democratic parties to the
reelection of Commissioners Hutchin-
son, McCloskey and Struck.
