BA[k PLAN FOR
ClTlzEN-PEOPLES
PARTY ALLIANCE
Scheme Advanced to Aid John
r. Weeks Is Headed Off
by His Opponents.

An attempt to amalgamate the Citi-
gems and Peoples parties OF South Or
ange was made by friends of Village
Trustee John II. Weel J, a Peoples rep
resentative whose term will expire this
spring, at the flrst meeting OF the earn
paign held by the Citizens party in
tho home OF Village President Ira A.
Kip. I., in Irving avenue, last night.
The proposed plan, however, was
Drowned upon by the Citizens mon.
The meeting was presided over by for
incr Trustee Francis Spier, jr., and for
mer Trustee Graham II. Erewer acted
as secretary.
The plan of uniting the two factions
to put a single ticket in the field was
advocated by Harvey /. Underliiil, who
has in former years been a member Of
the Peoples party. 1t was Mr.. I'm
derhilfs plan to have Mr.. Weeks's
name used with two a to be selected
by the Citizens on q ticket to be called
the "Amalganaated Ticket"
Former President Robert S. Sinclair
Robert e. Amin, chairman of the citi-
sens' Campaign Committee, and Mr..
spier spoke against such a proposal
declaring that Mr.. Weeks is not a
desirable man to have placed in the
field. Mr.. Sinclair mi Mr.. Spier al
legged that Mr.. Weeks made false ac-
cusations against members of the vii
lage trustees while he was village
In 1900.
Mr.. underhil said he had not been
given any good reasons why Mr.. Weeks
was SO opposed by the Citizens men
until Mr.. Spier addressed the meeting,
He said 40 did not doubt Mr.. Spiers
veracity.
James r. McGrath. last year chair
man of the Peoples party campaign
committee, said that while he might be
in favor of amaigarnation he most
etrenuously objected to any effort be-
Ing made TO again place M. Weeks in
nomination. He Is said to have made
the assertion that "To again run Mr..
Weeks for trustee would be like try
ing to make use OF a bundle OF straw
which had been cast aside and lost It's
usefulness." /
II developed at the meeting that an
attempt had been made TO have Presi-
dtnt Kip advocate the reelection of
Mr.. Weeks, and Trustees William II
Twedoell and Louis v. Bianchet. the
other men whose terms will expire. but
that he had refused.
1t was finally decided to empower
tire chairman to appoint a committee
of seven for the purpose Of selecting
three men TO be placed on the Citizens'
ticket. 1t is understood that John j
Boyd. OF Rynda road; Arthur T.. Phil
lips and Edward y. Loomis arc to be
chosen.
