Catt-Park ''Deal'' Denied
BY Mary Garrett Hay
Declares Reports of Women
Voters League Educational
Bill Trade Are JIntrue

Miss Mary Garrett Hay, chairman of
the New York City League of Women
Voters, yesterday gave out the follow
ing statement:
Members of the New York City
League OF Women Voters are much
concerned over report printed in The
Tribune, May IS, of speech given by
Mrs. r Louis Slade at luncheon of
the league of women voters at the
hotel McAlpin on Saturday. May IL.
Mrs, Slade stated that a ridiculous
and silly rumor was in circulation to
the effect that Mrs. Carrie Chapman
Gait and Mrs. Maud Wood Park had
made a deal whereby the league of
women voters had given up their back
ing of the educational bill in return
tor the placing of woman at the head
OF the proposed new Department OF
Public Welfare. This story was told
oy Mrs. Slade as sample of the
charges made by opponents of the
eague against its leaders and pro
voked both laughter and Indignation
rom the audience who understood pes-
.ectly that high principled women like
RS. Gait and Mrs. Park do not make
deals
The Tribune's report, however
makes Mrs. Slade say that Mrs Gait
nd Mrs. Park actually entered into
such deal and turns an absurd story
0to a serious charge"

that he has had all that is due him and
hat he should step aside and let some
ether deserving Democrat have a
chance at the big plums.
Deputy Comptroller Henry Smith
for years has been a popular member
Of Tammany and Charles F. Murphy

only objection to him as candidate is
the fierce dislike Of the Tammany dis
