| Lord MAYOR

| Over One Solitary Police
+ Court.
By United Press

By United Press
LONDON, Sept. Without a
single bonfire or torchlight process
sion to celebrate the occasion Sir
Harold Moore today was elected the
lord mayor of the best governed
city in the world"
In the same methodical way that
1t has been done since the City of
London was a walled town at the
time Of William the Conqueror, the
board of aldermen, or the "city IA
theirs" as they are known, gathered
together in the famous old Guild
hall and cast their votes for the
senior member of their body.
Campaign Without Speech
Following a campaign in which
not a single speech was made or a
single vote solicited, Sir Harold be-
came the chief magistrate of the
square mile of territory which con-
Stitutes his domain.
The high honor of being the lord
mayor of London is passed, tacitly,
down the list of aldermen-each one
being elected in turn, excepting
only the cases where there is some
objection to the next candidate or
in case the intended recipient feels
that his purse is not equal to the
position
After he formally has taken the
oath of his office Nov. 8, Sir Harold
will enter upon the none too strenu-
GUS duties of his Office.
Every Monday morning he will
preside as the unpaid magistrate
of the single police court MAIN
tanned by the "city."
Takes Up Duties"
He will preside at the monthly
meetings of the board of aldermen.
. He will act as treasurer for a
number of charities.
He will entertain visitors from
all parts of the woodland will do
1t out of his own purse, for although
he will receive a salary of $4,000
a year, his expenses while in office
will be several times that amount.
Hardest of all, he will have to live
for the one year which his term oc-
cupies in the desolate and somewhat
melancholy looking pillard mansion
across the street from the Bank of
England and the Royal Exchange.

With Mrs. Coolidge we have an in
