The convention sent this telegram to
President Harding:
state convention, send you their cor
dial greetings and sincere congratula-
tions. We are proud of the splendid
record you are making and we rejoice
at this opportunity to assure you of
our support"
Nomination Follows Precedent
There was lively discussion after
adjournment by some of the delegates
who debated to just what extent Gov
ernor Miller had dominated the con-
vention. 1t was learned that he had
resolutely declined to lend his influence
to the candidacy of his neighbor, Jus
tice Andrews, although holding him in
the highest esteem.
"The nomination of Justice Andrews
was a natural and commendable thing
q
preme Court Judge last night.
NO one on the bench or in office had
much to do with his nomination. 1t
came as matter of precedent and ira
dltlon. Judge Andrews has been serv-
ing as an assigned Judge of the Court
of Appeals for the last four years and
more. 1t has been the custom when a
Judge has been so assigned, and has
mad the experience in handling Court
OF Appeals cases, that he is in line for
elecclon whenever there is vacancy.
Judge Andrews is an extremely com
potent judge His election will be i'm
hmensely pleasing to the judges on the
oench, because they know of his ca
paclty. 1t is not the slightest ref1ec-
TON on Justice Cochrane, of the Sd
District, which in a sense furnished the
vacancy, that he should not have been
CHOSEN. His turn may come, as he is
man Of high attainments. Nor is
there semblance of case against
Judge Andrews because he wrote the
opinion in the bonus case. The cases
go by rotation. The chief Judge does
not assign, as they are assigned by the
supreme Court at Washington. In ro-
tatlon the bonus case fell TO him. and
ne wrote an opinion in accordance with
nus conviction, as he swore to do when
ne took his oath of office. The Court
OF Appeals judges do not represent dis
Grlcts; they represent the entire state
II an issue is raised against Judge An
crews on account of his having written
the opinion in the bonus case If will
result IN an overwhelming Endorsement
OF MIN by the people at large"

Vincent Gilroy, Republican, Coalition
nominee for President of the Board of
Aldermen, delivered the first speech of
his campaign last night before the For
est Hills Community Council, at Pub
lie School No. 3, Queens. Mr.. Gilroy
urged the necessity for a change in the
city government and discussed the
school and traction problems.
"The first need of the city as far as
public officials are concerned" he said,
lis to have men of honesty and sin
certify, men who would scorn to make
promises that they know they could
not redeem, and | believe that the
people are we'll able to discriminate
between the sincere man and the dema-
gogue and can be trusted to render
an intelligent decision.
"As to the particular questions that
interest you they are, believe, as fol-
lows:
First the questions that pertain to
the entire city, because your borough
is an integral part of that city, vitality
interested in the proper administration
OF its departments and it also contri-
butes to the general funds out of which
these departments are managed.
Big Future for Queens
"The second series of problems in
which you are interested are those re-
lating to your borough and more par
ticularly to the individual communities
that make up that borough. Queens
is a wonderful territory whose re-
sources have only been partially de-
veloped. By close cooperation, Queens

lis. Your future development depends

" owned merchant marine" the plat
FORM opposes government-owncd mer-
chant marine "to be operated at a
deficit"
The passage of the Federal budget
bill is commended and hearty indorse-
ment is given "the attitude of Presi-
dent Harding in reducing to the mini
mum governmental Interference with
business"
Continuing, the platform saws:
We believe that the Republican doc
trlne of protective tariff has proven
beyond question it's benefcence and
economic soundness, but as we must
sell as we'll as manufacture, no tariff
law should be enacted in the unsettled
economic condition of the present that
will prevent US from establishing the
profitable exchange of foodstuffs and
whom we musteeIl to such an va0 extent u9
as to make it impossible for them to
sell to US and, therefore, to buy from
US.
I'VE indorse the action of President
Harding in adopting a foreign policy
which spells American rights and in
making treaties of peace with Germany
and Austria upon such terms and con-
dltions as to achieve the good and
avoid the evils of the treaty of Yer
sailles.
Backs Arms Conference
I'VE are in favor Of international
limitation of ornaments to the utmost
practicable extent, not only for its in
auence against war, but because of the
lessening of the burden of taxation. We
commend the Presidents efforts toward
the limitation of ornaments, predi-
Gated on removal of the sources of ir-
ritation arising from the situation in
the Far East, as step in the sane
and constitutional accomplishment of a
purpose so urgently sought and insisted
upon by his predecessor.
"We heartily indorse the adm mi stra-
ton Of Governor Miller. His record in
nine months for economy and efficiency,
for constructive work and for earnest
| devotion to the public interest, has
never been surpa ssed. Under his adj
ministration there has been no usurpa-
ton of authority by the executive. He
co-operated with the Legislature and
state officers and they co-operated with
him.
Achievements Summed Up
In the saving Of at least $4,000, 900
over the appropriation for the preced-
ing year, in the elimination of unneces-
sary departments and the reorganiza-
ton Of others, in simplifying the assess
ment and collection of taxes, in chang
ing the department of agriculture,
farms and markets so as to develop
sound policies for the solution of the
great problems of food production and
distribution, in the Creation of board

!. ing for the first time definite policy

notable in the history Of the state"
New-York tribune. [volume] (New York [N.Y.]) 1866-1924, 1921-09-24

upon two things---rapid transit and tho
development of your great waterfront
and resources. Queens we'll knows that
the so-called plea of a five cent fare
does not apply to her citizens, us in
many instances they have to pay.15 to
~ cents for their transportation to the
lower part of the city, and il they de-
sire to reach the upper part of Man
haitian or the Bronx. as is many times
the case, not only are they compelled
to pay extra fares, but to lose the
time travelling to the lower part of the
city and then going into the Bronx.
Henry n. Curran, with that keen knowl-
edge OF the Situation which he pos
sesses, has suggested "A remedy for this
situation by linking together the spokes
OF the transit wheel with outer and in
terror rims SO that you may travel
from any point in Queens to any other
part of the city without traversing the
fare"
Mr.: Gilroy pointed out the necessity
Tor the development Of the waterfront
OF queens as a part of the general
port development. He said that no
plan of port development was proper
unless it combined the tablishment
and use OF terminal market facilities.
ne declared that the reason the Barge
Canal was now being used to only 10
per cent of its capacity was because
terminal facilities do not exist in tho
city for the proper handling of car
goes when they arrive. He said it was
not sufficient to have mere docking
1aclllties for barges, but that terminal
warehouse plants uhould be provided
INTO which incoming cargoes may be dis
charged and safely kept until properly
distributed, and outgoing cargoes can
De properly preserved and handled.
Efficient Schools Needed
sAs to the social welfare side of
your lives" continued Mr.. Gilroy, "the
first important consideration is the
public schools, and in large communi-
ties such as Queens those schools
should be so placed as to cause the
children to travel no great distance and
suffer no hardships in the winter time.
IN the erection of your schools you are
slngularly fortunate, because the
greatest need of the child can be pro-
tected in your community-that of ad-
equate playground space
Above all, it is to our interest to
have every dollar expended produce a
dollars worth in return, which will
not be the case when selfish politicians
are interested in the business of max
ing profit for themselves. If your tax
rate rises and a similar rise is not no.
tlced in the character of your public
improvements, you then know that
some one is deriving a criminal profit,
and this must be stopped. Queens
lends itself to the building of homes,
and your tax rate should be of such a
character that it will ENCOURAGE the
development of individual home build
ers"

From The Tvibunc's Washington Bureau
WASHINGTON, Sept. 23.-President
Harding told the members of mis- Cabi-
net to-day that the government is de-
termined, so far as it is able. to bring
down government activities to some
thing approaching normal. The Exec
utive made the statement in connec-
ton with discussion of the recent
cuts instituted in navy yards through
out the country, which have resulted
in emphatic protests from the persons
affected.
1t was made clear that the Presi-
dent personally feels that one Of the
surest ways back to normally" is to
put into effect sweeping reductions in
government wage scales, even though
such reductions be strongly resisted.
1t is felt by members of the Cabinet
generally that such reductions will
cause hardship at this time, but that
they are necessary and might just as
we'll come first as last.
General Demand for Reductions
1t was reported in the meeting that
from all sections of the country CORE
spondence is received at the White
House asking a diminution in the cost
OF every article, except that article in
which the writer's are concerned in
producing. 1t is felt by Administration
{ officials also that many cases reported
OF dire suffering in various navy yards
as a result of the wage cuts are ex-
aggerated
The Cabinet took no official action in
regard to Investigating the wage cuts.
The cuts were decided upon only after
conference in which representatives of
labor took part, and the Cabinet mem
bers, as we'll as the President, feel
that the government has done the very
best it can under the circumstances.
The Cabinet session itself was brief,
lasting only forty minutes. The Presi-
dent announced his intention of per-
sonally opening the conference on I'M
employment next Monday. He will
speak briefly, outlining the aims of
the meeting.
Discuss Muscle Shoals Proposal
discussion Of the Muscle Shoals nitrate
plant proposition, and the feasibility
Of further developing the plant. No
conclusion was arrived at other than
the fact that the present condition of
the plant as reported would indicate
that a great amount of money has been
wasted thus far. Cabinet members
found that the information pertaining
to the plant was, for the most part,
too vague to permit any decision be-
ing reached. 1t was reported that the
engineers Of the Henry Ford company
are to submit revised propositions re-
garding the purchase of the plant in
time. for submission at the next
meeting.
In connection with the policy of re-
trenchment and wage reductions on the
part of the government, the attention
of the Cabinet was directed to the
naval base at Norfolk, Va, which was
erected at cost of millions and is
now found to be on land to which the
government has not a clear title.

Mayor Hylan missed fire yesterday at
the meeting of the finance and budget
committee of the Board of Estimate in
shooting at Borough President Henry
RI. Curran, his opponent for the Mayor
atty, and hit two of the Candidates on
his own ticket, Comptroller Charles L.
Craig and Borough President Edward
Riegelmann of Brooklyn. When the
Mayor realized the damage he had
done ne ordered his remarks expunged
from the official record of the commit
tee and changed them so as to shoot
directly at Mr.. Curran.
Mr.. Curran was absent, fact which
led to the Mayors random shot, and
therefore, was not even scratched. At
the opening of the meeting the Mayor
swept the members present with Hy-
lanesque glance and noted that some
Of the regulars were missing The
Comptroller was absent, as was Bor-
ough President Riegelmann. Com
missioner Clarence H. Fay represented
Borough President Curran.
Certain members of this board are
going about the city accusing other
people of being inefficient and in
competent" said the Mayor, "when they
themselves do not attend these meet
ings. If l were a candidate, as I am,
and / were absent the papers would
have three and half inch headlines
telling of the calamity"
Expunges General Attack
No one supposed that the Mayor had
directed his remarks to any one but
Mr.. Curran, but when his attention
was called to the fact that he had
included other members, he directed
the stenographer to correct the range
and make it read "a certain member
Mr.. Riegelmann came in later.
When the budget makers finally got

mended only $163,747.

The American Museum of Natural
History, Manhattan, requested fol
personal service for 1922 $396,514. The
allowance in the 1921 budget was S302,
