 IN BITTER BATTLE
(continued From First Page)

shattering party ties in state when has not elected a democratic gov ernor for 40 years.
 Fears that Pinchot is preparing, in event of victory, to challenge President Hoover for the republican, presidential nomination both as dry and as an advocate of strict reg ulation of utilities through con- bination with western insurgent re- publicans such as Senator George Norris, republican. Nebraska were expressed to the United Press today by Randolph w. Childs, chairman of the Philadelphia Citizens liberal party committee, an organization composed chiefly of wet republicans who are supporting the democratic candidate.
 Say He Is So Ambitious
 We believe it is Pinchot's inten- tion to seek the presidential noml- nation through cooperation with republican insurgents" Childs said. -'Mrs. Pinchot contributed to Senator ANOlli To Ndlhk'ebi6ii iuiN' iiiSiiSN '0'iH some of his friends to Washington to help Senator Nye in his Tenate campaign investigation, hoping 10 win his favor. He is the most rabid politician in the United States, and wants to line up these senator's to help him get in on the prohibition issue in 1892. He plays the string de at ha 1,1o and right now it is the utilities. He is going back 20 years to the trust busting days to find an issue. But that day is gone forever"
 Governor Pinchot is too busy fighting for his life to think about presidential politics. At the moment republican leaders of every Phila- delphia ward except one were in con- fesence approving unanimously a statement supporting Pinchot's dem- ocrftic opponent, Pinchot was here in Philadelphia making fighting at tacks against his party enemies. Price of Cutters "Plenty"
 The price of the organization quitters has not been cheap" he declared in a radio talk immediate ly after the city organization de- serted him. Tt has spent many mil lions of dollars and payment has been made over a period of years. There was day back in the history of our republic when political lead- CTS, seeking to be bought, would Gc- cept cash or check outright. That crude day soon passed after these political leaders were discovered, and sent to jail.
 Then came the day Of the con- tractor boss A political leader seek ing to be bought would organize T contracting company and would then go to the city, public utility. or private corporation, and insist that in return for political favors, his company be granted certain con- tracts. That system has provided the method by which certain Phladel- phia bosses have been bought in this campaign"
 Pinchot, talking 10 the United Press correspondent after returning from one of his speeches, explained his utilities views have been mis- represented by opponents
 Any utility which is square with the people will have my support from the drop of the hat" he said ''I have no desire to hurt any inves- tor of utility which in return for the monoply and security in profits given by the public treats the public fair. All I am asking is that the util- ities shall be as fair to people as people have been to the utilities Every public utility must have not only fair but generous profits if il is to serve the public well but that does not mean 800 or 0O0 or ever 5000 per cent. as the federal tradc commission recently reported one company was making on it's invest. ment."
 Ward Leaders Talk
 The statement issued on behalf O the republican ward leaders Of Phil adelphia said:
 The wage earner decries MT Pin chot's unreasonable attacks on rh, business man, the bankers and tn, employers of the state. They rcaliZ' his assaults are causing unrest anr adding to the great horde of unem ployed. The voters know that Mr Pinchot in his efforts to injure in business man is thereby injuryin' the bread provider."
 Concerning Hemphill, the state ment declared the voters were at tracted 10 him by his "rommo sense expression of support of buSi nes1'' and especially are they i'm
