terday practically offered TO support AL

put into his personal platform certain
radical measures advocated by the ed
itor.
About 1 80 o'clock yesterday after
noon, Just before Mayor Hylan had re-
turned to his Office from n hearing of
the franchise committee OF the Board
Of Estimate, Mr. Hearst arrived. A few
minutes later the two went to luncheon
together.
At 2:30 o'clock Vice Chairman Moran
Of the Board Of Aldermen explained to
the members of the board who had
been waiting since 1 o'clock for Presi-
dent Smith to open special meeting:
Il am sorry you have been kept wait
ing, but the next Governor has been

A report was circulated later that
the Mayor had brought President Smith
and Mr.. Hearst together. President
Smith went to his summer home in Good
Ground late in the afternoon and could
not be reached last night.
There Is no doubt that Mr. Hearst
would be glad to support Mr.. Smith II
he would consent to advocate his pet

ously praised him for such good things
as he has done. We shall support him
as quickly for Governor as anybody else
II he shows as much capacity for Demo-
