don't think the Mayor or the Wares
should name the candidate for the Con-
GreSs in vacancy now existing in the
Third congressional district.
1T is entirely a matter for those
living in the district to decide. This
principle should prevail not only in that,
but in every other district.

GR|ER MAY GET
MAYORS SUPPORT
Moore Expected to Announce
Choice for Congress
Very Soon
B E ER ENTERS LISTS

Mayor Moore and his friends, accord.
ing to the expectations of politicians
VIII let it be known today or tomor
row whom they will support for Con
gress in the Third Congressional dis
trict.
The high point in the situation today
Is that powerful influences in admin
istration circles will strongly urge tht
Mayor to back Robert Grier. Repub-
lican Alliance leader of the Eighteenth
ward. aaginst former Sheriff Harry c..
Ransley, the Ware candidate.
Up to this time leaders working in
the interest of the Mayor have not been
successful in their efforts TO induce Il
business man or manufacturer to enter
the contest. Now they are seriously
thinking of relying on the candidacy
of Grier. Significant in this connection
is the fact that the Mayor had con =
ference with Grief and that the con
greSslonal situation was definitely re-
ferrcd to in the conversation.
In conferences scheduled for today
the Mayor will be told that Grier could
make a good fight. especially as he has
large personal following in the dis
trict. 1t will be argued that with Grier
leading the congressional fight and John
K. Mclean leading the fight for the
Senator Martin the practical workers
will more readily sDring into II vigor-
6us campaign. for the reason that both
Grier and Mclean are practical"
political workers themselves.
Mayor Moore is giving the deepest
consideration to the question Of electing
his successor in Congress. He wants
to win the fight against the Wares.
The Grier candidacy is now in the
ascendant. Grier is real estate as
SCISSOR and one of the original boomers
of Congressman Moore for Mayor. Grier
said today that he mad nothing TO say
except that he would be glad of the op-
portunity of getting into the fight. Griei
made it clear that he will follow the
wishes of the Mayor in every respect.
The Mayor said he had no comment
to make on the Grier candidacy.
Former State Representative Fred
erick Boyer announced his candidacy for
Congress from the Fifth Congressional
district. where he will contest for the
Repub lean nomination with Congress =
man Peter f. Costello. Boyer will run

merly an ally of Senator Penrose, but is
