The -pruning shears of the salary committee will cut deep with few of the scores of city employes who are asking for increases being given a favogable reply, an unofficial poll of committeemen shows. Because those asking for increases have not had an opportunity to pre- sent their arguments, members of the council committee declined to comment for publication, but” al- most without exception they said be shown before increases will be allowed. A difference of opinion among committeemen as to the police and fire department payrolls gives indi- cation of a fight with the “pros” and “cons” apparently about evenly di- | vided.

The dissidents were in command of All Attrache, a close relative of the Druse chieftain, Sultan Attrache who led last year's uprising.

IT PAYS TO TRADE AT AN A & P STORE | Personally I consider that Al Smith —— e e ATTRACT CONSIDERABLE COMMENT leader of the new era, in which prosperity is the chiet end of man- kind. “I think Calvin Coolidge repre- sents the very best that can be said of this new commercial era in its political phase,” he continued. “He is a typical politician of the better sort under the new order. He is educated as New Englanders and Americans go, but he has nothing of the eruditior. that Roosevelt or Wilson had and nothing of the broad interests in life, any one of a dozen of the elder statesmen had; he got on the political escalator and went right up; he is thoroughly regular in his party; he has never led a lone cause, never had a political fight in his life in the sense of going out and cleaning up the gang in his ward, his district or his state.” Hilles on Smith Hilles Belittles Smith’s Candidacy Kansas Editor Sees Coolidge Only Perfected Poli- tician of New Era. New York, Jan. 4 (A —Presiden- tial politics continued today to cre- ate a stir. Reports that some sup- portérs of Goygrnor Alfred E. Smith were making an active drive for delegates to the democratic conven- tion were followed by a republican spokesman’s statement belittling Smith’s power as a vote getter. This statement came from Charles D. Hilles, republican state chairman | the political situation in the state, said that Governor Smith carried the state by 150,000 less votes last No- vember than in 1923, the last off- year, and predicted a republican sweep in New York and the nation in 1928, “While T appreclate the personal | popularity of Governor Smith,” he sald, “and while 1 admit that ho has, |as head of his ticket, carrled two United States senators with him, it is indisputably true that his ma- Jority 1s less than it was and that he whether it Al Smith went down 10| wag unable in the last clection to Washington, there would have to be | oyrry either branch of the legislature {2 change In the attitude of the B0v- | og tha entire state ticket. ernment toward big business.

The New York World, ardent supporter of Governor Smith, said that the governor's closest friends were ‘frowning upon efforts to get his boom off to-an early start, re- garding such steps as ill advised and likely to hurt his chances. ‘William .Allen White of Emporia, Kan., in a public address compared Smith and Coolidge. The Kansas editor was asked dur- ing an address before the forum of |the Jewish center in Brooklyn represents the biggest, best, keenest and cleanest brain in American pub- | today—and I am a repub-| " 2 lican.” |Ondrick Graduate of Mr. White spoke on “Coolidge and | the Changing Times.” He declared | | President Coolidge to be ‘“‘as much of a mystic as any other New Eng- ‘Washington, Jan. 4—Jehn Ondrick, son of Mr. George Ondrick {of 103 Sexton street, New Britain, lander ever has been, even Emerson, | Conn., today received a diploma as and his mysticism is that he be-|a graduate accountant from Major lieves that, given prosperity, justice % Parker, Finance Dept., com- will come as a by-product.” 'lnnwhm at the graduating exer- e speaker sald he thought the s of the finance school’ of the | | president to be the typical pohlu.alil nited States army here. Mr. Hilles, in a statement outlining | Army’s Finance School | Ondrick, who is serving as an en- listed man of the finance depart- ment and regularly stationed at Camp Devens, Mass., completed & three-month course in accountins under finance department and business administration experts of the army. He also studied modern banking principles and methods and attended classes of the federal laws governing the handling of public funds. The finance sohool is one of the most important institutions teaching banking and business methods in | the country. Its graduates hapdle millions of dollars annually in ad- ministering the funds of the army. All soldiers seeking commercial and financial training eventually study at this army school and are rated on their abililty to apply the principles taught by its expert corps of in- | structors, Because of his excellent record as a soldier, Ondrick was recommended for the school by his commanding officer. Tomorrow he will return to | Camp Devens, Mass., where he com-~ pletes his present enlistment befors deciding whether he will continue in the service taking advantage of the army retirement privileges or enter the lucrative field of employ- | ment now open to him as a qualified | accountant.
