Moore Denies Fair
Post Is Aspiration

Continued from page One
the fair is under discussion and must
be settled before We can even approx.
mate costs.'
Arc Sou a candidate for director
general Of the Sesqui. .Centennial?' the
Mayor was iasked.
isn't that an absurd proposition?'
he replied. ''Is 1t possible that we
have men in Philadelphia capable Of
Undertaking so vast an enterprise
Would 1t bc possible. according to some
Of our spindle backed critics, to find
any ono in Philadelphia who could do
anything as well as 1t might be done BY
some one from Idaho or Arizona?
Question Coming Up Soon
:, Don't worry about such matters
Just now. All these matters will be
duly considered in the lawful way by
tho Executive Committee. The commit
tee will meet early next week, and it
1s presumed that the director general.
ship will be touched upon, although I
do not believe it can be settled imme :
diately."
The Mayor was asked If he had hear
Of rumored second proposal concern. /.
Ing Mr.. Hoover, made subsequent to
Mr.. Bok's offer.
Don't push any further questions
about that. matter now" the Mayor
said. IF you have any information
that / haven't given you, it is yours. :"
When the Mayor was first asked
yesterday concerning the rumor that he
might be a candidate for the fair post
be replied:
what Is the purpose Of all this? Are
the newspapers trying to kill the Ses-
ui.Centcnn!al? | am asked to make
statements and unfold things when I
have nothing to reveal.
Are they trying to bclittle the influ.
ence Of Philadelphia? Do they think
there can be an Exposition without
Philadelphia being associated with the
affair? Let them ask President Hard.
ing to run the show II they think he
will do 1t. But who's going to sit here
and do the work in the meantime?
Takes Fling ut Critics
II am trying to do what can. stir.
ring up enthusiasm in order to adver.
tise the fair.
II am tired Of getting letters from
Maine to Florida from people who are
trying to tell me how to do things. Why
don't they como here and do some work
themselves? How many Of them will
come here to do real work?

fishers are on the SesQui. Centennial
Committee. How many Of them attend
