Congressman Kitchin, former House

that the ways and means committee Is

The committee OF one hundred has
adopted the following statement of prih-
ciples, which the candidates 1t recon-
mends are pledged to support:
First. NEW CHARTER. The new
charter of Philadelphia, which was Sc
cured at the demand Of citizens against
the violent and determined opposition
of the contractor BOSSES must be put
into effect in all its provisions according
to it's spirit and intent.
Second. CONTRACTOR RULE. For
many years Philadelphia has been mis-
governed by a contractors combine
public officials have been selected and
appointed by contractors who take
enormous profits from the city treasury.
There can be no condemnation too severe
for a system whereby a politician nom
mates and elects the officer Of a city,
who in turn. awards valuable contracts
to him and oversees his work The re-
suit is an increase in taxes and the
waste Of public money Out Of these
profits a vast corruptio fund is created
which Is used to bribe and inttmldate
voters and win elections for the con-
tractors candidates. This condition is
intolerable. and any candidate put for
ward by the contractor interests must be
opposed and defeated. however re-

TO LOSE MOORE
Republican Leaders Glad, How
ever, That He Is a
Candidate
GlLLETT PRAISES HIM
By a Stdd Correspondent

Washington. Aug. S.--Leaders of the
House of Representatives today declared
that the candidacy Of Congressman J
Hampton Moore for Mayor of Philadel
phia is a mighty fine thing for Phila
delphia. but very reerettable situa .
tion for the House.
The House leaders. Speaker Gillett
Republican Floor Leader Mondell, for
mer Floor Leader James Mann, former
Speaker Champ Clark, former Demo
cratic Floor Leader Claude Kitchin ant
many others frankly expressed theil
qualification over Mr.. Moore's an
nouncement. but said it would rob the
House and the Republican party Of one
Of it's most valuable. energetic and Wig =
orous members.
Fine for Philadelphia. said Re
publican Floor Leader Mondell, land
I say it very regretfuly from the stand e
point of Congress.
Regret to Lose Him
"Mr. Moore has been one of our
most energetic, industrious, clear mind
ed and forceful members. He is man
of great energy. thoroughness. strong
conviction, honesty and integrity.
Beyond all question he will make
splendid Mayor of Philadelphia and can
be depended upon to guard zealously
the interests of the people of that city
as he has those of his constituents here
in Congress. We all certainly wish him
good luck, but sincerely regret to sec
him go from the House.
Former Republican Floor Leader
James Mann, "the man behind the
throne" in the House, said:
"Great for Hampy. He is one of the
best men / have ever known. He will
make fine executive because he sees
clearly and has the courage to back his
convictions. I shall be very sorry to
have him go out of Congress.

Speaker Gillett's Methods.

Speaker GiIlett has taken a simple
method of shutting off the flow of ora
tory. catechism. repartee and general
debate with which Representative j.
Hampton Moore has been accustomed
to enliven the House proceedings. Dur
ing the last six weeks ''Hampy" Moore
has been conspicuously absent from the
House, due to the fact that he has been
about important public business In
Philadelphia" as he gave the excuse
when asking for a leave of absence, the
truth being that he has been making the
liyeliest campaign for mayor that the
old City of Brotherly Love ever expert
enced.
But to get back to Speaker Gillett's
coup. "Hampy' oftentimes grows tur-
bulent in debate and when the Speaker
sees one of these fits coming on he
calls the gentleman from Pennsyl-
vania to the chair to preside. His
colleagues are onto this and chide
''Hampy' considerably about it. ''Muz-
zled again" Is often whispered quite
loud enough for him to hear as he
mounts his rostrum.
When the waterpower bill was un-
der discussion Representative Hicks
of New York sent a note to Mr..
Moore, who was in the chair. He
sarcastically commented on his solemn
and dignified appearance. Mr.. Moore
read, the note, turned it over and
scribbled something on the back. In
n trice the page returned TO Mr:
Hicks and the members who mad
gathered around him chuckled as they
read the following:
Dear Fred:
Perhaps you're right, for I may be
A little long on dignity;
But if I'm solemn, lacking cheer.
It's all because I'm "stuck up here.

There should be eagerness to attend

way he can become and keep open

Sees Judge Payne as Receiver.

Col. Harvey predicts that Judge
John Barton Payne. the new chairman
of the shipping board, will make
good receiver" His way of picking
his working force and of making
them deliver the goods" ought to
help a lot in fulfilling this prediction.
Judge Payne takes scant credit, such
as many executives boast, of being
anything like genius at picking his
assistants and building up great
working organization through his
own wonderful ability to judge men
and provision their achievements.
Judge Payne "sizes up" the young
men offered to him for assistants. He
will get an idea that certain young
lawyer is capable of handling certain
important work. He will put him in
charge of it and expect him to handle
it with little or no help or interfer-
ence from him Payne). If the young
man can't handle tie job. he can get
out and some one who can handle it
will take it over; but ifShe does han
die it better than halfway what
Payne wanted, Payne will back him
and fight for him against any op-
position that may arise. 1t is be-
cause of this chara cteristic that his

DR.. Moh1er Modernizes.

DIR. John r. Mohler. chief of the
bureau of animal industry, United

modern and upto- date version of
the old story about the French noble
woman, who, on being asked by a
visitor to let her see her jewels, left
the room and returned with her chill
dren. whom she presented, saying,
These are my jewels"
DR.. Mohler in discussing the neces-
sity from the standpoint OF public
service that plans should be made to
insure the people of this country
wholesome meat and ample supply,
tells of woman who recently ap-
peared before the city council of San
Diego. Cal, which was debating
changes in the local meat regulations.
She told the council that there were
three reasons why she did not want
to see anything but government, in
spected meat in that city. and there
upon introduced her three children to
the council. She explained that Uncle
Sam demanded federal inspected meat
for his soldiers and sailors and that
her children were just as valuable to
her as Uncle Sans were to him.
