The New York herald., 1921-11-08

Henry III. Curran, coalition candi-
date for Mayor, wound up his cam
paign last night by delivering an ad-
dress into wireless telephone ap-
paratus at the station Of the De Forest
Radio Corporation, 1S1st street and
Sedgwick avenue. The Bronx The
message, IT. was estimated, was heard
by about $4,000 persons through the
$4,000 wireless telephone stations in
and about New York. 1t was tran
scribed at coalition headquarters and
made public.
Mr. Curran made no other speeches
last night, but went home soon after
he had spolten into the wireless tele-
phone. He found at his home many
messages wishing him good fortune In
to-day's election, and he found time
TO reply to a few OF those from his
most intimate friends. He retired late
but said that he would be up bright
and early this morning to cast hiS
ballot. Afterward he probably will go
to the coalition headquarters to await
the result Of the election.
The message which Mr.. Curran sent
out by wireless telephone last night
esl1ed the voters of New York to decide
between government by himself and hts
associates on the coalition ticket. and
government BY william Randolph
Hearst through. Mayor John II. Hylan.
The kind of government that the city
gets under Hylan. he declares. Is the
kind that comes through Hearst. man
who was twice defeated when ne ran
for Mayor Of New York.
Issues Are Clearly Cut.
THE issues are clear" said Mr.. Cur
ran. "HyIan and Hearst will be judged
not only by the record Of Hylan. the
servant but also by that OF Hearst, the
master Hearst tried twice to be Mayor
Of New York. Both times he was de-
feated. The people repudiated the man
who used the power of his millions. and
the poison his papers TO slander McKin-
ley, Roosevelt, Gaynor. Al Smith and
every man in public life who refused to
bend the knee to Hearst. Only Hylan
remained subservient to the California
boss Now comes Hearst once more.
and demands that we make him Mayor
Of New York again, through the continu-
ance OF Hylan. his proxy.
What have Hearst and Hylan done
for us that we should grant their de-
mand for four years more of ..awer?
Shall we forget the broken ..o.lises
that line the path of that pair?
"Shall we forget the 100000 children
they kept out OF school? The 1000
widowed mothers they tried to coerce
into voting for Hylan for fear Of losing
their pensions9 The high rents, high
taxes and the high cost of living that
they promised to reduce when they well
knew they could not keep their word?
The burglaries and robberies that have
made our daily papers calender of
crime?
.T'he graft in the docks ard the mar
kets that added millions of dollars to
the cost Of food In every family in New
! ork? The four years OF qusrreliing.
and insults In the Board of
Estimate?
The desecration OF the schools. of
public ceremonies and even OF memorial
In reverence to our soldier dead,
that Hylan might use them for his own
political purposes? The fake talk about
the five cent fare. while secret negotia-
tions with Shonts went on for a seven
cent fare?
IL say that we are entitled to relief
from these conditions. that We, the peo-
ple of New York. deserve a better fate
Than four years more OF Hylan. Hearst
und Hirshfield. The remedy rests with
Us.
when | am Mayor shall build. My
work will be for more homes. more
schools, more parks and Fairgrounds.
better transit for a five cent fare and
better management OF the city's busi-
ness You know where ! stand on these
things. and on every other question OF
