MOORE IS PRAISED
BY C0NGRESSMEN
Mayor-elect Guest of Honor OF
Washington Colleagues
at Dinner
LAUDED FOR FIGHTING NERVE

This poem" dashed off on the spur
of the moment by Congressman Nicholas
Longworth, toastmastcr at tho dinner
given last night in honor of Mayor
elect Moore, of Philadelphia. at the
New Willard Hotel, was indicative Of
the felicity, good fellowship and rare
tributes paid by leaders OF the House
to the retiring member Of Congress and
the next Mayor Of Philadelphia.
Uncle Joe" Cannon. James r..
Mann, leader of the Republican ma
jority; -.ank ". MondeH, floor leader,
and many others offered eulogy after
eulogy to Mr.. Moore and nominated him
for Governor of Pennsylvania, senator
of Pennsylvania, President of the
United States, and Martin Il. Madden,
of Illinois, even proposed him for the
highest honors in the league of ma.
tions.
The speeches were shot through with
evidences of the sincere regard held by
congressional leaders for Mr.. Moore s
talents. Wit and banter also had their
l.play.
The host was Congressman Isaac
Bacharach. of Atlantic City. The guests
were Mr.. Moore's immediate colleagues
in the House.
The Mayor elect, in replying to the
many warm words of admiration and
encouragement, in a voice shaken with
emotion, said he had no thought of
future honors; that his whole effort
would be bent Coward the duty ahead
giving Philadelphia Il first class ad-
ministration.'
Congressman Ware was one Of the
l ll.
ON for speech.
Congressman Madden, of Illinois
said that with the election of Mr.. Moore
as Mayor Philadelphia had got rid Of
the reputation Of being sleepy. "ShC
will have" said Mr.. Madden, "a real
live Mayor and will no longer be the
sleeping beauty of the East. Mr.
Madden said Mr.. Moore's ability to look
at all sid-s of questions fitted him pc
culiarly to be Mayor of Philadelphia.
Congressman Fess, of Ohio, said
that Mr.. Moore was displaying the
same ability in the selection of his
cabinet as was used by Mckinley and
Lincoln.
Congressman Mann, of Illinois, said
that the House was losing one of its
''gamicst, ablcst members" that Phila
delphia might get a good Mayor :,
"What we need in this country
said Mr.. Mann. ''is men with nerve
Hampton Moore always had nerve. They
might swear at him, but if he believed
that he was right he had the nerve tc
say so. Let us rejoice that the people
of Philadelphia have a man for Mayor
who has the nerve to be honest with
himself and with his fellows.
Uncle Joe Cannon introduction was
the signal for the gathering to rise in
honor of the Ncstor of the House.
"You are young man. said Mr
Cannon. II shall soon cross the line
Your life is ahead of you. ! pray that
the prayers that inspired our soldier
in the Revolution, in 1912. in the Civi
War; and in this last great world wa
will guide and inspire you in the days
to come

MOORE TOPASSON
.LAMBERT0N'SA AIDES
New Sheriff to Submit Names
to Mayor-eIect Before Max
ing Appointments
WITHHOLDS ACTION NOW

Sheriff elect Robert e. Lamberton
will not announce any appointments
until after Mayor elect Moore has
completed his cabinet.
Then the sheriff elect will submit to
the Mayor elect for his approval the
men he wishes to name for the four
most important offices under the sheriff.
These are the chief real estate deputy,
personal deputy, special deputy and the
shcriff's counsel.
81 regard Mr.. Moore as the head Of
the next administration" said Sheriff =
elect Lamberton today. "While my
Office does not come under his admin
istration, nevertheless / want to go to
him and submit the names of those l
intend to appoint and ask him if he
has any strenuous objection to any of
them.
"If he objects to any of those I
have in .mind I will hold over that ap-
pontment until we can thresh the mat
ter out"
Mr.. Lamberton said he did not wish
to take up the matter of appointments
with the Mayor elect now because he
is too busy with his own appoint
ments.
The determination of the sheriff elect
to consult Mr.. Moore on his appoint =
mcnts will be regarded in political cir =
cles as further indication that the
new Mayor is to be the party leader in
the city.
1t is considered certain in political
circles that Frank j. Willard special
deputy, will not be retained by Mr..
Lamberton. The special deputy always
is considered the closest employe to the
sheriff.
Willard is the first lieutenant oi

not paying any attention to rumOrs OF

such talk is to be expected. Least OF

His attitude is that he win lead and
