said. not only had passed seventeen laws

the chairman, by an immigration act.

VOTE FRAUD EXPOSE
Is APLOT TO HYLAN
Declares Gilbert Pre- Election
Evidence Is Traction Effort
TO Intimidate Voters.

Mayor Hylan assailed Abraham s.
Gilbert. Deputy Attorney General. yes
terday for exposing registration frauds
in this city, and blamed the whole thing
on the Traction ring" which. he said
is trying to intimidate the poor voter
and thus win the State election for Gov.
Miller.
The Mayors blast came out OF City
Hall late in the afternoon. II was re-
ported earlier in the afternoon at Tam
many Hall that a strong statement"
would be made during the day in answer
to the evidence brought out by the At
torney- Generals office. but 1t was not
known by whom the statement would be
issued
Saying nothing about the merits Of the
investigation or the violence of law
breaking gathered by the State legal
officials, the Mayor berated Mr.. Gilbert
as an agent of the traction ring and
declared that the fraud charges We're
merely a pretense at purifying the ballot.
TIE Mayors statement said:
Mr.. Gilbert was appointed under th-
legislative act and is authorized to spend
100000 ostensibly to prevent frauds nj
the polls. Barefaced election frauds
have been committed in upstate coun-
ties where the Republican organizations
are in absolute control. Election frauds
in New York city are a. q rainimum.
Under tAe special act Mr.. Gilbert's
agents may enter the homes of private
citizens and question and subpoena any
person who, in their opinion, is illegally
registered. There is evidently nothing
to prevent Counsellor Gilbert from APP
pointing 10000 Deputy AttorneyGen-
erals and putting them in charge o.
every polling place in the state. Under
this law the Acknowledgement might
supersede the boards of cleo
tons.

deprive citizens not only Of their rignt
to vote, but of their courage to protest
against abuse and intimidation"

have a right to expect truth from the

Speaking about the taking away from
the cities of the power TO regulate con-
tracts between themselves and public
utility corporations, the candidate dwelt
upon the "sacredness' of contract 1t
was a dangerous precedent for the State
TO break contracts between cities and
public utility corporations. he said, be-
cause it might bring time when the

Public Service Commission. OF which
Gov. Miller has been speaking, was con-

Gov. Miller was not satisfied to
leave that matter to the cities. In
obedience to the wishes of the great
public service corporations he removed
all local control and placed the cor
porations under his own commission
without responsibility to the city and
answering only to his own desire to
serve the traction companies. In the
creation of his new commission he vio-
lated entirely the practice Of non -parti-
san appointments. A commission so coz

sarily restrict it's favors to traction cor
