Calder Calls Off Plan
To Run Him for MavOr
Senator Puts Quietus OH Dinner
10 Launch Boom; Idea May
Be Resusciiated Later

William M. Calder, United States
Senator, yesterday called off the move
ment to put him in the race for the
Mayoralty which has been engineered
by his friends in the National Repub-
lican Club, assisted by lieutenants of
Jacob A. Livingston, of Brooklyn.
Plans were being matured for a
large dinner in his honor, and it would
have been the occasion of formally
launching his boom for the Repubi-
can nomination for Mayor.
There is a bare possibility that the
plan will be revived before fall and
that the Senator may then see his
way clear to make the race.
After mature deliberation the Sena-
tor has decided that the Mayoralty is
sideshow compared with the Senator
ship, and that it will not pay to 90
fishing for it, or for anything but d
reelection.
y If the legislative investigation
should turn out badly for Mayor Hy-
Ian and the Hearst-H an-Tammany
combine, which has agreed upon the
denomination of Hylan, it is possible
that the same factors which planned
campaign with Senator Calder as the
Republican Mayoralty candidate will
bring the plan forward again.

From The Tribune's Washington Buredu
WASHINGTON, April 25.-As an
other step in the plan of making the
American military forces instantly
available for war Secretary of War
Weeks to-day called upon the commits
stoned personnel of the National Guard
to seek appointment in the Officers
Reserve Corps.
The drafting of the National Guard
into the Federal service will be accom-
plished by proclamation by the Presi-
dent, but this draft automatically dis
charges the officers from their National
Guard commissions. Before they can
serve in commissioned capacity after
such discharge it will be necessary
that they be appointed in the Officers
Reserve Corps.
in the case Of officers above the rank
of colonel the Presidents nominations
must be sent to the Senate for con
firmation. The War Secretary is de-
sirous of preventing any great delay
in this process by having all National
Guard officers seek commissions in the
reserve corps and thus be properly
qualified for immediate service.

tanned as special counsel to fight any
moves which have beer made or may
BE made against the Transit Commits

it is understood that the matters with
which they are to deal were gone over
thoroughly.
1t was learned that the Transit Com
mission has a definite program in mind
fer the solution of the New York CITY

not been divulged. but it is understood
