The party used the pilot boat Philadelphia, under command of Capt. John Virden, for the expedition While hing was poor on ac- ‘€ount of the northeaster which held . the Atlantic coast in its grip during the early part of the week, the out- ing gave an opportunity for some of the leading republicans in the party to talk over the political situation and lay plans for the campaign. Included in the party were Senator McCumber of North Dakota, United States marshal trict of Columbia; John M. Mendenhall, ex-president of the Pusey & Jones Shipbuilding Company; Rob- ert P.

Y. Legislature Election Bpecial Dispatch to The St LOCUST VALLEY, N. Y., October 2 —Frederick Trubee Davison began today his first political campaign un- der the $6,500,000 endowment be- stowed upon him by his father, the late Henry P. Davison of J. P. Mor- gan & Co. The twenty-six-year-old law stu- dent and veteran of the world war, in which he sustained permanent in- juries in an alrplane fall, is seek- ing to cceed himself in the New York te assembly. the famous Oyster bay district of Long Istand, and Davison had his first chanc> at the legislature when young Theodore Roosevelt resigned to be- come assistant secretary of the Navy. Conductor Opponent. Opposed to Davison, who was left his vast fortune to epable him to be unhampered in his public career, I8 Robert Ludlam, a conductor on the Long Islend railroad, a middle-aged Roosevelt. “Every one says Ludlam is just the finest fellow,” ‘said young Davison today. “I don't know him, but I am going to look him up the first chance I met. Of course, I will beat him unless there is an unexpected land- slide, but I always like to know my opponent in en open fair fight.” Esny Victor Before. Davison went into politics before i his public career was endowed and {had an easy victory at the election [ held to se a su cor to young Ttocsevelt. During his brief career in the assembly he has won the re- lican crganization and has been ad- mitted to the inner councils of the party. - Davison is a strong believer in party organization, party regularity and party control. He declares that as essential to good service as or- ganization in business. As to his political future, younsg Davison has as yet no definite ideas. ‘Whether his ambition will run along state lines, with the governorship in view, or whether he will enter the wider fleld of national politica, with eat in Congre: a goal In the remains to be deter- hat political be a bed of roses, despite the absence of financial problems. Strives to Do Best. Asked as to what he is working teward, DaVis today said: is to know that any job I have under- taken has been done Intelligently and that I have done the best I know how. I am too young in vears and | political experience to enunciate dic- tums or policies. I do know that the job I am doing now is the most In- teresting thing in my life. T will say this much, in view of my work on the assembly tax com- mittee, that the way the peopl taxed and In the way those ta. handled lies one of the greatest op- portunities for the foundatio good and efficlent and busin handling of government and, fore, contentment for the people. “I must say that every state, every B== le———]olc——]olc——]al———]a|—] man,, who also ran against young | spect of the bigger men in the repub- | organization in public service is just | My chief desire as to the future city, even the federal government, would not go far wrong in emulate ing the system adopted in this state. By the employment of experts to help-—and, most important of all, the taking of thelr advice—we have cut twelve milllons from about one hun- dred and forty-five millions in one year. This {sn't mudh, but it is a teend in the right direction. Enthusiasm of You Davison undoubtedly is sincsre with the enthusiasm of youth in his chosen work. Furthermore, he un- questionably has inherited those traits of farsightedness, judgment and poise which made his father such | a noteworthy figure in the financial | {world. He has a most engaging per- ' i sonality. In many ways he is a sec. lond edition of his father, having the {same ruggedly handsome lines to his | face. He is u i ple ‘tastes. loving outdoor life, an #till able to play tennis in doubles, | despite the partial paralysis which. was his heritage from the naval avia- tion service during the w: Davison has no idex that his money will prove an open Sesame to future and higher public office. He realizes, as he states, that he must prove his worth in the job. His money makes him master of his own ideals, but his firm belief in party organization may atand him in greater stead in Turther- ing his political career. Expected to Defeat Opponeat. He will have comparatively little itrouble in winning his way to the legislature next month, for his dis- trict is normally republican by &} large majority. It is not altogether ia “silk stocki district, however, | and his democratic opponent, Con- ductor Ludlam, has a following which at all times must be reckoned with. #A] Davison is not disposed to treat his opponent lightly, although seemingly assured of certain victory. Asked today what he thought about the present trend in republican quar- ters for the abolition of the direct primary, Davison repli “I do not believe there , have proved better than the direct pri- maries which are in effect in other | states. Direct primaries may be all right where constituencies are small, but in thickly populated districts, yWhere the voters have no chance to {know the candidate, it isn't so good. :The convention stem with elected i delegates is better.’ The writer talked with young Da. vison for two hours. Constantly returned to local and state issuc: ! which he is keenly ut, finally pressed for his views on na. i tional politics, he said: “I cannot make a statement on that, for it would be merely the statement of a young student. Tt Is all much like college. 1 am a mere freshinan, who hopes he will get in the sopho more class next term. Wouid you ask a first-year law student the same sort of questions about the law as an ex- perienced lawyer?" Hobby Taking Moving Pictures.
