10 Aid Newburger
Proposed Citizens Party Is
Backed by Men Who Say
Murphy's Domination of
Judiciary Must Be Ended

Tho revolt among Democrats over
tho action If Charles F. Murnhv
leader Of Tammany Hall, in refusing
denomination to Supreme Court JUS
tice Joseph E. Newburger gathered
momentum yesterday when scores OF
men and women prominently identified
with the Democratic party announced
their intention of joining the proposed
Citizens party.
The purpose Of the party is to pre-
vent the so-called inner circle at Tam
many Hall from controlling the affairs
OF the Democratic party in this citv.
Its immediate object is the voicing Of
the resentment of Democrats against
tne nomination of Irwin Untermyer.
son or Samuel Untermyer, in place Of
Justice Newburger.
have been busy obtaining signatures
to designating petitions so that he NAV
run in the Democratic primaries
against Untermyer. His nomination
by the Republicans is assured, as he
has been indorsed by the Republican
County Committee
Justice Newburger's friends said last
night they were convinced he would
make the fight, and regardless of what
his position-which he will make
known o-morrow-they will file pe. j.
tlons to place his name on the ballot.
William F. Schneider, who is the
prime mover in the proposed new or
ganization of independent Democrats.
sent telegram to Justice Newburger
urging, him to remain in the fight.
The telegram follows
violation Of the principle of free
dom and integrity of the Supreme
Court involved in refusing you renomi-
nation is of greater moment to the
people of this judicial district than is
the injustice you personally suffer
prominent attorneys have called at
tention to the fact that several of the
Justices Of the Supreme Court whose
terms expire in 1920 may be as sum
marily refused denominations on the
pretence that they will be able to serve
but part of the fourteen-year term.
and nominations in their stead given TO
unknown favorites.
i am speaking for scores of men and
women deep y concerned in the invio-
laplllty OF the courts in urging that
you, regardless of any personal in
cllnation, allow your name to be desig-
mated in the Democratic primary elec
ton Tor the place you have so long and
ably tiled upon the Supreme Court
bench"
Inc reason advanced by Mr.. Murphy
IN refusing a denomination to Justice
Newburger after his twenty-e ght
years service on the bench was thar
he would have to retire before his
term was up because of the age limit.
This, it was pointed out, is also true

Hays Decides Not
10 Enter Race for
Governor i'm Indiana
Republican National Chair
man Says He Will Be Busy
Seeking Victory Essential
to ''Country's Welfare''
Special Corresnondenn,

Special Cores pondence
BROOKV1LLE, Ind, August Twill
H. Hays, Republican national chairman.
announced this afternoon at meeting
of the Republican State Editorial Asso-
citation that he will not be a candidate
tor Governor of Indiana
Mr.. Hays said his duties as national
chairman would require all his time.
He added that he would work for a Re-
publican national victory, $50 abso-
luteiy essential to the country's well
fare" He predicted victory in Indiana
and throughout the nation at the next
election
Discussing national issues, he said:
This is no time for little things. Just
as during the war period, so now as
we APPROACH these problems, fearlessly
and IN spirit of patriotism, with our
eyes solely on the country's welfare.
the Republican party accepts the com
mission given it by the people last
November, and will proceed to solve
the problems.
We attribute honesty of purpose
to the opposition. We urged during
the war that each party strive to see
which could aid most in winning the
war. To-day we urge that each party
make 1T its business to see which can
go the furthest in developing plans and
executing purposes for the welfare Of
the people and the glory of the nation.
Let this be the real effort between 90
litical parties in this country.
1--WE say that a successful political
party's objective is record of the
faithful discharge Of its sacred obliga-
ton to the people and we will act ac-
cordingly."
Mr.. Hays paid considerable atten-
tlon to the need for an efficient
budget system in national expenditures
and emphasized the necessity for bet
ter business practices in the expendi-
ture OF the peoples money. AS part
OF better business methods. he IN
sisted on a better preparation in a
national way for the solution of the
problems of peace.
The Republican party stood during
the war;" he said, "first, for the use
of every possible means to win the
war; second, for a peace with victory
only; and, third, for sane prepare
ton for the solution of the problems of
peace
eve have insisted, and now insist
that we are as unprepared for peace
as we were for war. We have cried
continually for preparation to that
end. Every country except America
was preparing for peace long before
the war ended. We slipped along un-
der this Democratic administration
without any adequate thought of the
problems that would confront US
just as we did before we entered the
war. 'Watchful waiting was as fall
lacious in this as it was in the case
of Mexico or as in the failure to pre-.
pare for war when war was at our
gates or as in the problem of Russia
"Our duty Is row ahead, and that
duty we will not shirk. We shall
bring this government back to the
limitations of the Constitution ir
times of peace; and we'll indeed may
our party give it's best thought tc
that matter, as it has become more
apparent daily that the Republican
party is the country's only salvation
in that regard"
