CUNNINGHAM OFF
TO SEE PENROSE
Combine Leader Expects to Get
Senator's CIear-Cut Decision
on Fall Fight

As final move toward slate for
county Offices this fall, Thomas W.
Cunningham, a leader Of the combine
here, left for Washington today to con-
suit with Senator Penrose on the ticket.
Mr.. Cunningham told friends he en-
poets to return with clear cut views re-
gnrding the Senator's attitude toward
the Ware group and the candidates. Of
Receiver OF Taxes Kendrick for re- -elec-
ton and of Thomas w. Watson for City
| Treasurer
The Senator has had a week to ponder
over the straight from the shoulder
talk given him in Washington by Mayor
Moore. The Mayor told the Senator,
In substance, that he must make up his
mind to either support the Ware organi-
zntlon or crush it and that no middle
course was feasible.
Added to this Is the attitude of the
Voters League toward combine ticket
which would merely represent a COM
promise with the old contractor organi-
zation. That also must be reckoned
with in the slate making plans, IL Is
said.
The Voters League is reported to look
with disfavor on City Controller Hadley.
who is said to be friendly to the Ware
interests A decision must be reached
on that point also in the near future.

WARNS WOMEN OF
POLITICAL HACKS
Are Told to Support Good
Delegates for Revision
of Constitution
MRS. J. 0. MILLER ADVISES

A warning against the candidates. Of
''poltical hacks for the proposed con
stitutional convention was issued today
by Mrs. John o. Miller. chairman Of
The Pennsylvania League Of Women
Voters.
Mrs. Miller, who believes the voters
az the September primary will sanction
n convention to revise the States basic
law, issued statement, of which the
following Is n part:
LESS than two weeks are now avail
able for the filing of nomination papers
with the Secretary of the Common
wealth. August II is the last day on
which such nomination papers may be
Alcd. Therefore the voters of every
congressional district in the State
should see to it that properly equipped
candidates file their papers on time. 1t
is lust as much n lapse OF civic duty to
foii in having nomination papers filed as
n 4. 70 fail to participate in the cleo
tIon. You cannot effectively vote for
suitable candidates for delegates unless
the names OF the candidates are printed
on the ballots. -.
iThe question involved in the holding
~ n constitutional convention is so i'm
nortont that urge all women to watch
CLOSELY 40 that they will have full Oppor-
tunity to elect qualified delegates. Those
who are chosen as delegates will sit In
n conventionf the result Of which may
work vital changes in the fundamental
body of law for Pennsylvania
mo mere political hacks should be
selected for this tremendously significant
tosk. Men and women Of vision. Of
intelligence md patriotism who will be
guided BY the highest ideals of state
craft. should be elected rs delegates.
"When we touch the fabric Of govern.
ment We should approach II. with careful
hands and constructive minds. Those
delegates will be nominated in the
primaries of September 20. On that
same date also the electorate of the
Commonwealth will decide whether or
not convention is to be Sheld. Even
those who are opposed to the convcn-
tion should be Jealous In guarding the
quality Of the candidates who may sit
in the convention. For IL the conven-
tion is authorized. as I believe 1t will
he. then all citizens will be primarily
Interested in having men and women
delegates in whom they can repose the
fullest confidence
