Gambling Dens and Petty Food Racketeers Suffer
 Since Reign of Fusion Administration

Iaddicts, was the climax of an im- pressive list of accomplishments for the young administration.
 Here are some of the results of 26 days of Fusion rule:
 Chief Inspector Lewis Valentine and Big Dave McAuliffe, both re- called from Tammany-imposed ex- ile in "the sticks, began war on gambling.
 Tammany officials who had been in power while gambling went on virtually unrestricted were demot- ed.
 Fishmongers at Fulton market, where Al Smith once worked, were told they needn't pay "even a nicker for protection" Fiaschet- ti descended on Wallabout market and cleaned it out.
 Commissioner of Accounts Paul sel Paul Windels were set to work to ferret out graft wherever il could be found.
 In three departments $150,00C was slashed from the city payroll Brooklyn was taken over, with an estimated $1,000,000 saving. Bud- get Director Eufus E. McGaher prepared list of useless jobs for the mayors axe. Pay for the new $10,000,000 penitentiary on Riker's island was held up on the charge that the construction was defect i've. Wholesale granting of ferry passes-Tammany had handed out 18,550,000 in eight years-was stopped.

 New York, Jan 26. (UP)- Twenty-six days after Tammany, Mayor Fiorello LaGuardia's fusion administration has smashed the 16- yead-old Tammany spells machine in a dozen places.
 The smashing was accompanied by the howls of scores of favored" welfare island prisoners; by the crunching of Police Inspector David (Big Dave) McAuliffe's axe through the doors of gambling dens; and by the whines of petty food racketeers whose attempts to levy tribute in city markets didn't meet with the approval of Michael Great Elm Rough) Fiaschetti, market commissioner.
 But while these cleaning squads yielded the "new broom" vigorous ly in the city's fester spots, other squads were at work seeking to reopen the budget for new econ- omies, whetting axes for useless city jobs, and tackling the problem of transit unification.
 The smashing of gang rule on Welfare Island, with it's exposure of an incredible system permitting unheard of "favors" to prisoners with political or gang influence, and its pandering to convict drug

CANDIDATE FOR
 BOTH TICKETS

Boston, Jan 26.-(UP)-Because neither political party in this state "any longer represents the people,, |, Frank A. Goodwin, chairman of the Boston finance commission and la bor attorney, has announced his candidacy for governor in both the republican and democratic pri- maries.
 Goodwin, whom Governor Ely re- gently threatened to denote from the chairmanship of the finance commission for alleged neglect of duty because of his activities in behalf of Brockton shoe k6rkers, said the major political parties now are controlled by the same inter- ests.
 "The Bacon Richardson leader ship in the republican party sug- gests the House of Morgan rather than Abraham Lincoln, and the Ely Bentley Warren Stop Roose- velt' leadership in the democratic party bears no resemblance what ever to the theories of government as practiced and preached by Thomas Jefferson" he said.

 "The Internationale" was com- posed by a Frenchman named De- Geyster, in 1888. The idea back or the work is not a new one. Christ expressed it 20 centuries ago in the golden rule, and several centuries before Christ, substantially the same idea was expressed by Budd- ha and Confucius and Lao Tza."
 Opposition to Stokowsky's af1- nounced intention of playing the Russian national anthem was led by the county American Legion, whose officers announced they would take steps to prevent the singing.
 The "Internationale" is a com munist song and therefore dan- gerous to our democratic institu- tions," Rev. Robert J. McFetridge, chaplain of the legion asserted.
 Miss Gertrude Ely, former pres- ident of the Women Voters and Benjamin H. Ludlo, secretary Of the Philadelphia orchestra associa- tion, came to Stokowsky's support.
