Why Blair May Go.
The so-caiied practical politicians
in high Republican councils are after

who had Dover appointed. And they

One Slight Shake.
Dover gave the tree . slight shake
soon after he went on the job. Not
nearly % vigorous q shake 40 had
been the custom In the good old
days." but q pretty fair effort and
one frausht with promise Of juicy
pickings to come. But II also was
vigorous enough TO arouse Comrnis'
merit system, and to result In an
open rupture between the two.
Dover, by virtue Of his office as
Assistant Secretary Of the Treasury
is Blair's immediate superior, and he
exercised his authority to place two
| tried and true party workers In i'm
portant positions IN Blair's organixa
ton. They were A. d. Summers, OF
Iowa, who was. made supervisor OF
collectors, and A. c. Childs. OF Ohio
who became head Of the accounts d.
vision. These two men had control
over approximately 1000 internal
revenue jobs--about 400 In washing
ton and the remainder scattered
throughout the country.
Everybody, Gets Busy.
Then Dover, last month, departed
on . tour Of the departments
offices, which took him to the Pa
cific coat, and, incidentally blair got
busy. He had q few conferences
with Secretary Mellon and must
have talked convincinely for news

caused him to hurry hack from his

Frank Loses
In Fight to
See Ballots
LA Guardia Elected, Says
Justice McAvoy, Denying
Application of Defeated
Democratic Candidate
Fraud Charges Ridicnled
Counsel Asks How Threats
Gould Have Been Made
i'm the Polling Places

Exercising the discretion with which
the new election laws gives the courts
in such matters, Supreme Court Justice
MeAvoy denied yesterday the applica-
tion of Henry l. Frank, defeated Demo
cratic candidate for Congress in the
20th Congressional District, for an ex-
animation of the ballots, which, on their
face, showed that Fiorello H. La Guar
dia, former President of the Board of
Alderman and the Republican candi-
date, had been elected.
Samuel Ecker, counsel fer Mr.. Frank,
told the court that Mr.. La Guardia and
twenty of his supporters rode about the
district on Election Day and intimi-
dated members of election boards and
also that offers of bribes had been
made to Tammany captains to permit a
classification of the returns.
Charges Death Threat
In one district, it was charged, O fol-
lower of La Guardia said to the chair
man of the board: "If you do not sign
the return handed to you your body
will be found in the East River to-mor-
row morning" In the 7th Election
District Of the 18th Assembly District,
said Mr.. Ecker. the returns had been
mishandled 80 that the official made
the count La Guardia lis and Frank
ia, when, as q matter Of fact, Frank
received 214 and La Guardia so.
Leonard Obermeyer, counsel for La
Guardia, ridiculed the charges of
threats and bribes made by the de-
feated Democratic candidate and said
these could hardly happen In polling
place in the presence of numerous citi-
zens and with policeman constantly
on duty.
Russell L. Tarbox, Assistant Corpo-
ration Counsel, who appeared for the
Board of Elections, opposed the motion
Of counsel for Frank for an examina-
tion Of the ballots in court. He said
the Board of Canvassers would issue 81
certificate of election to the successful
candidate on December Is.
McAvoy's Decision
In denying the application Of the de-
feated candidate, Justice McAvoy said:
Even If we assume the most radical
kind of situation, that in each dis
trict the figures were transposed and
the victor in each district was made the
loser. if that result was certified and
was unaccompanied by any void or pro-
tested ballots to be examined, the cer-
tifcate Of election must issue to that
person under the law. These election
officials are judges of election: they
are judges in the first instance Of
whether those ballots are or are not
to be counted, and how they are to be
counted, and if they get into the boxes
and are not held out as protested or
void ballots or defective for one rea-
son or another their decision is final
and the court has no right to interfere
with 1t at all prior to a time when
a quo warranto or other proceeding to
GUST the person who is holding the
tion is brought. d. The election
officials announcement on the night of
the election is final conclusion until
it is voided by an order after review
of void and protested ballots"
Mr.. Ecker, counsel for Mr.. Frank, in
timated that he would bring other pro-
ceedings.
