Reason for Not Voting
Tt is understood that Mr.. Armour's
reason for not having voted is that
three years ago, being dissatisfied with
his prospects carrying fixed salary
and with little prospect Of an increase,
he had it in mind to sell his house in
Albany and move back to Brooklyn and
engage in private business. He speaks
and writes Spanish. and has had ex-
pcriencc in exporting to the Latin
countries.
During his planning about his re-
suming his legal residence in greater
New York he failed to vote either in
Albany or to establish a voting resi-
dence in this city, where many of his
relatives live. Seeing chance in the
civil service examination for high class
st rvice in the income tax bureau of the
Comptroller's Office. he successfully
passed the examination with the high
rating, as before stated.

State Comptroller Travis refuses to
appoint a "high" man on the civil
service list to q $4,000 place in his in

that he has not voted since 1916.
Harry r. Armour. librarian of the

awaiting appointment. There is no
disability chargeable against Armour
except the one raised by the comptrol-
ler, which, as stated, consists Of the
fact that apparently since 1915 Mr..
Armour has not seen his way clear to
vote.
When Tribune reporter asked Comp
troller Travis about the matter yester-
day, without hesitation he said:

position on my staff man who thinks
so little Of his rights and duties as a
citizen that he has refrained from vot-

would not accept. Now-he is welcome
to fight.

doubtless will be taken into court by

WASHINGTON, Feb. 21.--Represen-
tative Frank l.. Smith,, of lllinois,
chairman Of the Lowden headquarters
in this city, said to-day:
"Tha Lowden managers have been
greatly interested in reading the plat
form adopted by the recent Republican
State Convention in New York. We
have studied this statement very care
nor Lowden, more nearly than any
other Presidential candidate now men
toned, could consistently and whole
heartedly adopt it as the platform upon
which to 60 before the country.
"The first plank Of the New York
platform calls for adoption of the peace
treaty with reservations. This is
strictly in accord with the position
taken by Governor Lowden in his reply
to the letter from Senator Borah, OF
Idaho.
"The platform urges early ratifica-
tion of the woman suffrage amendment
to enable the women to vote in the
forthcoming Presidential election. The
Illinois Legislature, under the dlaec. rec
ton Of Governor Lowden, was the first
state body to ratify the amendment.
"The checking Of privat xtrava-
gance and public waste is given en-
phasis by the New York Republicans.
Under Governor Lowden the public
waste in Illinois was completely
stopped through abolition of useless
commissions and otherwise, with the
result that state taxes were reduced
more than 80 per cent and a more etii-
cient government service provided.
"The New York platform calls for
adoption Of national budget system.
Illinois, under Governor Lowden, was
the first state to adopt the budget

EXPECT VETO
OF RAIL
BILL
While Union Heads Ex-
press Confidence, Sup
porters Of Measure Claim
Plan Will Be Accepted.
Special United Press Wire.)


- Washington, Feb. 2A.-The rail-
road union leaders are confident the
president will veto the Esch-C Cum
Minis railroad bill. The measure
which passed the senate late yester-
day and the house on Saturday, will
be sent to the Whitehouse today.
The railroad mems confidence in
the presidential veto is based on
what they interpret as a promise of
"a square deal' made by the presi-
dent last summer when he asked
them to postpone pressing their
wage demands pending the result of
the governments efforts to lower
prices.
The labor section Of the Esch'
Cummins bill does not give them 4
Square DEAL" the union men con
tend. They further argue that in
passing the measure congress delib.
erately ignored the presidents
promises to them.
What action the president viii
take will probably be influenced by
the advice Of Hines, whose attitude
toward the bill is a mystery. Both
opponents and friends Of the meas
ure claim his support.
