Asked if Mayor Hylan would be a candidate. Mr.

Hlrshfield replied that as he had never talked with the Mayor about the matter, be did not know. "But," Mr. Hlrshfield auded. I am firmly convinced that, no matter who the next Democratic candidate for President may be, he will undoubtedly be a man of the people, a man of the type, personality, honesty, steadfastness, loyalty and courage of Mayor Hylan." Mr. Hlrshfield took issue with Governor Cox over the Iatter's tpeech In New York last Saturday night, in which the Governor declared the League of Nations would remain the issue until the United States entered it.

Mr. Hlrshfield said that Governor Cox. In 1920. made his run on Wilson ism and the League of Nations, and was beaten by 7.000.000 plurality. He added that the result convinced him the Democratic Party then deserved defeat.

"Ait Democrat," Mr. Hlrshfield cor. tinned.

Prevent Breaking Down of Barrier," Jules V. Burgevin. landscape archi tect for the Department of Parks, whose approval is under the provisions of the city charter, before permission may be grapted for the proposed exhibition, of the National Sculpture Society in Central Park, aald yesterday that if. on examination of the plan, it seemed to him that the exhibition would be an entering wedge for Invasions of the park, he would withhold his ap proval, i Mr. Burgevin.

although making It clear that he did not wish to prejudge the application of the said that any permit which might act as a prece dent for allowing Central Park to be used aa an exhibition place would be opposed by him. I am not prepared to discuss the merits or demerits of the sculpture society's he saldl Before I can do that I want to see the plans and consider every phase of the matter. But I will have to be convinced that the proposed exhibition will be of great advantage to the city and that It will neither injure the Park by actual use during the period of the exhl bttion nor by the Francis D. Gallatin. Park Commissioner, already has given preliminary consent to the exhibition and has asked the committee of the National Sculpture Society, of which Adolph A.

Weinman is Chairman, to have detailed plans prepared. A landscape architect has been engaged by the committee and It is expected that a sketch of the layout for the exhibition which calls for the cutting up the Central Meadow Immediately north of the Metropolitan Museum of Art Into temporary paths, will be sub mitted within five or six weeks. Vari ous societies interested In the preservk tlon of the parks for park purposes have begun an inquiry Into the proposed ex hibition, and many of the Individuals identified with these organizations have expressed opposition to the scheme, 'After the detailed plans have been sent to the Park Commissioner, they will have to be submitted to Burgevin. If he disapproves of the plan the sculp tors' efforts to get Central Park for their exhibition will bo blocked. The sculptors' exhibition may have good educational features," Mr.

Burge vin. said, "but the price to the public would be too great If It Is going to result in the Invasion of the parks by every society that wishes to hold such an af' fair. I do not wish to do something which In future years may be pointed to as the breaking down of the barrier that has protected the parks for the public" Asked about Commissioner: Gallatin's sucffestlon that the exhibition would be a demonstration of a formal garden. such as the Commissioner said Olmstead and Vaux, who laid out Central Park, provided in the original plan for the section, Mr. Burgevin said the formal garden had been planned for the site of present Conservatory Lake, between Seventy-third and Seventy-fifth- Streets on the Fifth Avenue side, The area north of the Metropolitan' Museum, w-ileh la at Kighty-flfth Street and Fifth Avenue, is on an entirely different char acter.

The formal garden was never put in. however, and. while do not know the reason for leaving1 It out. my belief is that it was decided that it was better to have the natural landscape i features," Mr. Burgevin saidt I Mr.

Burgevin was asked whether the plan of Olmstead and Vaux called for any sculpture. i No, the plan was for a formal flower garden." he said. And It is my belief that whoever Is responsible for Its omission was right." FAIL TO SAVE TEXAS SLAYER. .1 i Hornsby Is Hanged After Governor Refuses to Commute Sentence. ELTON.
