PROGRESS BY HINES

Chieftains Call Meeting to Get
Reports on Losses Recorded
for Miller.

Alarmed at the progress made by
James J. Hines In his effort to defeat
julius Miller, the Tammany TSall choice
for the Borough Presidential nomina-
ton, Charles Francis Murphy. the pre-
siding officer. and all the delegates
at the phone booth convention, called
a hurried meeting of the executive COM
mittee yesterday afternoon. Mr.. Hines.
himself the leader Of the Eleventh As
sembly district, was unable to attend,
but sent Bernard F. Plunkett. his dis
trict chairman, as his proxy. Mrs.
Ernestine #. Stewart, woman leader OF
the district, was present, but both she
and Mr. Plunkett. who wore Hines but
tons. received a frosty reception.
Although 1t was not expressed in ex-
actly that way, the meeting was in
tended as sort of showdown on the
part Of certain leaders regarding
rumors that there was much Hines
sentiment in their district.

has won his fight with BOSS" Murphy

ously stories that a number OF captains
in his organization were going to aid
Hines. He and his colleagues always
had been loyal organiza ton men, he de-
clared. and were working tooth and mai
for julius Miller.
IT know there are number OF reports
that my friendship for Hines has led me
to swing the district to Hines" said jim
mic Hagen of the Seventh. TT Is true
like Hines, but have been an organ
liza ton man for fifty years and I cannot
support man who does not stand by
the organization"
Whereupon Mr.. Plunkett, the Hines
proxy, asserted with considerable warmth
/, that his leader was and always had
stood Loyalty by the ganization. but
was making his fight within the organ
izatlon against It's leadership.
Mr.. Hagen replied that any man who
deliberately fought the unanimous ac-
| tion OF the executive committee was by
| that act against the organization
Hines was not present when Miller was
chosen, but Mrs. Stewart, the co-leader
made no protest Hagen denied there
was any sentiment to speak of for
Hines along the West Side.
George Donnellan and other leaders
then eulogized julius Miller although
many OF them had not heard of him
before his name was pulled from the
box. Stress was laid on the impor-
tance of getting out big vote for Mil
Ter on primary day.

dent of the Board Of Elections. predict
ed that the voting ma achines to be used
on election day would prove a failure
He did not think they could register
the vote properly. Tammany never
has wanted and does not now want
voting machines.
After getting Supreme Court man
damus counsel for Mr.. Hines succeeded
yesterday in getting his official num-
ber on the primary ballot from the
Board of Elections. Counsel had to
force his way into a meeting OF the
board with his order. He was informed
they had no knowledge OF his vain at

President la Guardia, who for some

leaders had promised him the Mayoralty
nomination this year and had broken

SMILE AT REPORTS
viii Indorse Gov. Miller's
Administration.

Republican leaders in New York city
were smiling last night at reports from
up State that plans were being made to
override opposition from them to reso-
lutions indorsing the administration of
Gov. Miller at the coming State conven-
ton in Syracuse. 1t was ridiculous,
they said. to think the Republicans here
would attempt to block any Endorsement
of Republican Governor.
To the report tnat up State leaders
were "coralling UP State votes with the
object of showing through "A blanket In
dorsement OF the Governor Immediately
after the convention convenes," the lead
ers here said they need not worry. Gov.
Miller was a Republican Governor and
would get an Endorsement. of course.
Equally silly. they said. was the infer
ence carried in the statement from ur
State that they would slaughter" any
resolution originating with the New
York city fusionists' as a means OF
furthering the cause OF Major Curran
the fusion Mayoralty candidate, whe
has repudiated parts OF the Miller ad-
ministration. OF course, there would
be no thought OF presenting any suci
resolution.
