debt and declared that the. $2,- 430,000 cut cannot be denied no matter how much the republican orators talk.
 Before the campaign is over we will issue a statement showing the dates and amounts of the re- duction we have made in the city's debts," he stated. We don't claim to have any magic power nor to have done the impossible but we have reduced the total city's debt by the amount stated and we feel that is real achievement, one that We can stand on."
 Referring to the claims of his opponent for the controllers office, George W. Greene, his accounts have not been audited according to law, Mir Leary declared that all his 1890 accounts and almost all his 1891 accounts to date shave been audited.
 1T do not like to make charges as do our republican opponents. he said, "but I will say that some of them are not handling the truth carefully"
 Mir Leary also attacked charges of MT Greene concerning the city's buying from out-of-town whole salers. If MT Greene was a mem- Der of the Chamber of Commerce he would know that there is only one wholesale grocer in Water bury, he said, and the city is buy ing from him and also from others. He pointed to the fact that the city lived within its appropriations last year.
 The republicans last night held rallies at Gray's tea room with Charles c. Dreher and at g. o. D. headquarters. Two rallies were held at headquarters, one under the auspices of the United Italian republican club, with Louis Schia- vone presiding, and the other un- der the auspices of the Italian wo- mems republican club.
 George E. Tracy, candidate for mayor, said that Mayor Hayes claim of debt reduction is "po- litical bunk" He urged support of the republican candidates.

 Mayor Hayes reiterated his pre- vious statements that the city owes $2,50O,000 less than it did two years ago. He declared he stands on what his administration has &C., complished in the past two years.
 "I do not believe the people of the city demand of their mayor that he run about the city denying the vain vaporings of possible as- pirants in either the primaries or the election" he said. "The mayors main business is governing the city and that is what I am doing to the best of. my ability" Declaring that he stands on what his administration has ac- |complished in the past two years, Mayor Hayes stated that he be- (lieves the people know what that lis without the necessity of him get |ting into arguments about 1t.

If all the men who say they are sleeping out these nights are tell ing the truth, the city will find 1t necessary to open shelter where one can spend the night, even though he gets nothing more. To be sure there is nothing unusual in having somebody ask you to give him the price of nights lodging, but it is different when the number is large and appeals are made by people who are known not to be professional beg gars.

The Washington times., 1931-04-21

IF there is anything that
we need in Washington today
it is a stadium. Just sight one
little incident which is giving
me considerable bother at this
time. It happens to be my
privilege again to be chairman
of the Olympic Lacrosse Com
mittee.
You will recall the fine
crowd that turned out in 1928
for the Olympic lacrosse semi
finals at the Central High
stadium. In the selection of
the American team next year,
I am convinced that the semi
finals and finals will easily
draw 10000 to 100000 people.
Lacrosse has and is making
rapid strides.
II should be very ANXIOUS to
play some of the Olympic Ia
crosse try-outs in Washington
and unless I know where we
really will play some of these
games as much as we would
like to have them in Wash
ington.
Then I also understand that
the bi-centennial commission is
very anxious to have the ma
tional A. A. U. track and field
championships for 1882 in
Washington. I really do not
know where they have in mind
to conduct these championships
unless it is at the Central High
School stadium and that, in
my opinion, would be made
quate.
However, as the last resort,
it probably would serve the
purpose. The national cham
pionships during the olympic
year will draw a tremendous
crowd, far in excess of the seat
ing capacity of the Central
High School stadium.
There is nothing in the
wide world I would not do to
help bring some of these ma
tional outdoor events to our
city, but where in heavens sake
are you going to hold them?
Il do hope that the start
you have made will bear some
fruit"
