LIBERALS WANT

Has ‘Open Mind’ on Race for Mayor of Chicago; Hits Hastings.

WASHINGTON, Dec. 1 (U. P)— Secretary of the Interior Ickes said today that a coalition of liberal forces is urging him to run for Mayor of Chicago. Mr, Ickes said that he has an “open’ mind” on the subject, and pointed out that his “first love” in political life was his fight as a youth against the traction interests in Chicago. At his press conference he was asked if the fact that his legal residence is in Winnetka, a suburb of Chicago, would not make him ineligible for the mayorship. The Secretary replied that he could establish legal residence in Chicago within 30 days and thus become eligible. He further pointed out that he was a lifelong resident of Chicago until he moved to Winnetka. Asked if the mayoralty might be a springboard to the Presidency, Mr. Ickes said that it “might also be an exit.” “The Presidency is the least of my worries,” he said. “I am one of the few men around here who is not a candidate for President.”
