MOORE, IN SENATE, PREFERSLAST 108 Former Governor of New Jersey May Yet Run for Post in 1937. TRENTON, N. J., November 27 (N.AN.A).—Senator-elect A. Harry Moore of New Jersey, present Gover- nor, would have preferred retirement to sitting in the United States Senate. Had he retired at the end of his term— for New Jersey Governors cannot suc- ceed themselves—Mr. Moore would have started immediately to campaign for Governor again in 1937. No man has been Governor of New Jersey for three terms; and it is Mr. Moore's ambition to be that man. With two terms behind him and visioning & three-year vacation from office in which to make speeches, Gov. Moore was well satisfied until the Democratic party drafted him to run for Senator. For weeks the Governor refused, but in the end Mayor Frank Hague of Jersey City convinced him that his candidacy was necessary to aid Willlam L. Dill, Democratic can- didate for Governor, Won by 220,000 Votes. The carefully laid plans of Hague went awry. Moore was elected Sen- ator by 220,000 votes over Hamilton F. Kean, conservative Old Guard Repub- lican. But Dill lost the governorship by 11,000 to Harold G. Hoffman, a rising star in the Republican firma- ment. Now the Democrats are left without a strong candidate for Gov- ernor in 1937 and already there is talk | of running Moore, despite his election to a six-year term. As Senator, Mr. Moore is pledged to support the entire program of Presi- dent Roosevelt. His campaign was| based on support of the New Deal. He raised no differences with the Presi- dent’s program, nor did he reserve the right to use his own judgment. In essence, his campaign was “to support the New Deal instead of the Raw Deal.” Kean Opposed Roosevelt. Kean opposed most of the Presi- dent’s policies, The Moore-Kean con- test, however, cannot be taken as a clear-cut referendum on the New Deal in New Jersey, because Moore is the most popular vote-getter in the State’s history, with friends in every hamlet, while Senator Kean was swept in with the 1928 Hoover landslide and was never a popular figure. Senator-elect Moore is opposed to Federal encroachment on State fields of taxation. He is opposed to the Federal gasoline tax and to Federal luxury and amusement taxes. A strong believer in State’s rights, he for a time upheld the far-reaching State code legislation in New Jersey as against the N. R. A. policies. But after a series of conferences with Gen. | Hugh S. Johnson, Gov. Moore ac- | cepted the program of the national | administration. Senator-elect Moore is personally friendly with President Roosevelt. He and Roosevelt were in constant com- munication when the latter was Gov- ernor of New York. When Mayor Hague fought Roosevelt at the Chi- cago convention, running the cam- paign for Alfred E. Smith, Gov. Moore remained at home. Although high man in the election of delegates, Moore let an alternate vote against Roosevelt. He tried in vain to per suade Hague to support Roosevelt, ‘Will Ask Liquor Tax Cut. One of Senator-elect Moore's moves at Washington will be for reduced liquor taxes. He fought for low State taxes and will seek reduction of Federal levies. “The higher the taxes are on liquor,” he said, “the greater the margin of profit for evading them, and the greater incentive there is to boot- leggers. The only way to end boot- legging is to take away the profit by reducing taxes. Competition will do the rest.” Unemployment insurance and old- age pensions, major planks in Presi- dent Roosevelt's social welfare pro- gram, will meet with Moore’s ap- proval. His career has been marked by consideration for the poor and underprivileged. His proudest ac- complishment is in being the founder of the first school for crippled chil- dren in the country, a Jersey City institution that bears his name Affable and friendly, Senator-elect Moore is expected to be a popular figure in Washington, as he is in New Jersey. Slim of figure and with his once-red hair now silver, the Gov- ernor has a springy step and energy found seldom in a man of 55 years.

C, WEDNESDAY, NOVEMBER 28, 1934, CITIZENS INDORSE STREET CAR LINE Southeast Group Opposes Substitution of Bus Serv- ice in Area. Declaring removal of street car tracks on Pennsylvania avenue south- east between Eighth and Seventeenth streets and the substitution of a bus service would seriously injure the growth of Southeast Washington and would constitute a barrier to the “natural” .expansion direction of the city in general, the Southeast Citi- zens’ Association last night adopted & resolution requesting no such re- moval action be authorized by the Public Utilities Commission. The Public Untilities Committee, headed by J. C. L. Ritter, was au- thorized to take any further steps necessary to defeat the proposal. The matter also is to be referred to the Southeast Council of Citizens' Asso- clations. The resolution further requests the present tracks in that area be re- placed with new ones. It was said the proposal to remove the present tracks has reached the stage where immediate action was found to be necessary because the Capital Transit Co. recently started to remove from Barney Circle a large number of new rails which originally were intended to replace the “dilapidated” Pennsyl- vania avenue tracks, English Speaks. R. B. English, vice president of the Southeast Business Men's Assoclation, recounted the efforts of his group to have the Pennsylvania Avenue Bridge repaced and the garbage transfer plant removed from its present loca- tion, at New Jersey avenue and K street southeast, and declared: “We intend to fight to the end for these projects.” ‘The association voted to co-operate with Capt. J. E. Bobo of No. 5 police precinct in soliciting and donating toys, food and clothing for the needy during the Christmas season. Capt.

It was also decided the association will participate in a “Southeast Ex- position” now being planned by the Southeast unit of the Community Center Department of the public schools. Mrs. M. W. Davis, secretary in charge of the Southeast Community Center’s activities, invited the group to send delegates to a meeting to be held December 5 in the Hine Junior High School, at which time a definite date will be set for the event. Mrs. Davis indicated it would be held some time in Februery. Plans for a Boys' Club show, also to be held in February, were discussed and Orrin J.
