In a brief talk, Floyd Murray, asird 'he reop!e not to be swayed by prejudice mil personal attacks until they had given Simon a chance to be heard. It, was inferred that the democrat candidate for mayor would "open up" a good deal stronger later. "Come, hack next Tuesday night.' announced Murray, "and we'll show you Hammond Is now the widest open town ;ti northern India-na and we'll have the dope to prove it." "I promise that If I am elected mayor '.he first thine I will no will be to do;- ? -hese titll holes on Plummer avenue." said Ed. Simon. A BUnrtUB STAMP f Simon displayed some resentment of Cr.e charge that as county auditor I..vas a "rubber stamp." "It is true." he said, "that there is a rreat deal of routine work In the auditor's office and that It was my duty to -Ifn saloon licenses for which some o ur prominent attorneys applied to the ounty board. 1 think It only fair tisk. however. 1f it was the work of a rubber stamp when I went before the -'tate tax board and got the assessed valuation of the Illinois Steel Compar.v tucreased from $'.000,000 to j".3GO.0f. k a result of that increase .he steel corporation paid J233.000 additional each year to the county." TO FIGHT HIOH BATES The democrat candidate for mayor pledged himself to fight the rate fixing corporations. He said that Hammond pays 10 cents more for gas than West Hammond although it Is supplied hrough the same mains from the same plant. "When the telephone company ant-lied for and received a sixty ver ccr.t increase in rates they asked the uti.it.commission to allow them 8 per cer. t on a valuation of $ 1,130,000." -a.d Simon. "When this company gave it valuation to the tax assessor It was only 1, SCO, 000. The present city administration never took these facts to the utility commission to fight the increases. The public utility corporations including the street car company have had pretty much their own way frrr lour years." kayos ait orncs BOY? In reply to the charge that if electd mayor he would davote the greater portion of his time to private interests-, Simon saidi "I lived In Crown Point for four years while I was auditor and visited my cigar factory in Hammond about once a month. If I am elected mayor of Hammond I expect to give an hour of my time now and then to the factory, but if my duties as mayor won't permit I'll not go to the cigar factory. I don't behove the mayor should stay in his office and wait for something to turn up. It is his duty to get around town and see that the railroad crossings and streets are in repair, tht the alleys are kept clean and that the railroads put in gates at death crossings as ordered by the council. "Looking after the little things and answering the phone Is all right but what about the big things such as defending the people against the avarice and cunning of the utility corpora.tions .' A mayor should be something more than an office boy." "I challenge the opposition to ehow a place where Ed. S'.rron has not been a success," said Attorney Murray. "Ed. Simon's life is an open book. I saythat the real Issue of this campaign is tho man and that Ed. Simon is better 'iualiSed to be mayor of Hammond." Frank Martin, city chairman, and CityJudge Klot also spoke, the latter mak ing a brief but stirring appeal for re election. MUST STOP SELLING HOPS INTERNATIONAL NEWS SERVICE i WASHINGTON, Oct. 13.

The legislative wheels of congress will stop today in tribute to the distinguished Pennsylvanian, it Is expected the senate will meet at 11 o'clock and adjourn immediately out o respect.

The Senator's counsel and advice had been counted upon for the forthcoming conference on armament and far east, ern afl'aiis, and it's loss will be keenlyfelt.
