ALE FAVOR ”HIM

 

Equipped for Post ——
VVas One of Late
Chief’s “My Boys”

NEW YORK. May 2.——When the
executive committee at Tammany
Hall meets next week ii: is expected
that Surrogate James A. Foley will
be named Charles F. Murphy's suc-
cessor as chief of the orgnnlmtion.

Informal discussions of district
leaders since the passing of linrphy
last Friday revealed a. general dis-
position to place the governing pow-
ers of Tammany in the hands of
Foley, who is regarded as being ex-
ceptionally equipped for the post.
There were many self-proclaimed
candidates among the leaders. but
their own candidacy and the tear of
internal dissension being caused by
the elevation of one of them brought
about their rejection and an almost
unanimous shift to Foley.

Surrogate l-‘oley belong to the
younger generation of Tammany.
While in the Legislature he served
with Al Smith and ‘Bob \Vagner. the
triunivirate being often referred to

 

 

by Murphy as “my boys."
Ability Quickly Recognised

Ben-so upon the death 01 “Silver
Tongue” Torn Grady. '3}: vnbillty
was quickly recognized by his petty
and he was mad minority leader
or the Upper Ho .

During his legislative career life!!!
introduced nmong‘other importlm
measures the Workmen's Compen-
sation not. the Teachers' Equal Pay
bill, Living Wage for Women bill
and 3the Municipal Ownership bill.
He was, a. ember of the Constitu-
tional Con “ntion in 1915 and was
chairman of the committee inva-
tigating telephone rates in 1914.
which resulted in a ten per cent re-
duction in the tariffs. He took an
active leadership in' framing 1119
State'- war policies and introduced
the not creating the State Council of
Defense misting the activities of
the State government during the
war. It was hi; bill that created
the Rapid Transit Construction
Commission. the predecessor of the
present body. while he also ‘ pro-
vided for the organization or the
Public Service ommission.

Is Native New Yorker

Surrogate Foley was born in New
York city in 1882, was educated in
the public schools nnd the College
of the Cit; of New York. from
which he graduated in 1901. Two
years later he was admitted to the
Bar.

Should the present intention of
the leaders remain unchanged Sur-
rogate Foley probably will take
command of the organization imme-
diately. His term as Surrogate does
not expire until 1923. but whether
he will continue that office while
managing the affairs or Tammany is
not nscertainable. With Foley hold-
ing forth at the wigwam Governor
Smith will \tve an effective ally in
his Presidential ambition.

111-1919 Surrogate Foley married
the step-daughter or C. F. Murphy.

not guilty." said Smith. He asked
that ball be fixed immediately and
each man was required to turnish
$2,500. Smith was granted a. week's
time for making of motions by the
detcnce.

Bow-ore Politics, no Advise.

"My advice to business men is to;
keep out of politics," said Beynolds.;
He referred to them as “political in-‘
dictmenis." He declared he wanted
an early trial.

"I'll tell my story right in this
courtroom on the stand,” he added.
“They are charging larceny. but it's
a. peculiar kind of. larceny wi‘zn
somebody else got the money. It
seems a. queer kind or a. charge."
