Lavelle Enters Contest For Suffolk District Attorney BUTLER TELLS PLANS TO BRINGOUT VOTERS Urges Up-State Republicans to Offset Tally Here Reveals at Greenfield That Boston Is Being Combed by His Party GREENFIELD, July 29 United States Senator William M.

Butler, accompanied by his secretary, Thomas Carens, and some of the members of the Republican State Committee, arrived in Greenfield early this afternoon and held an informal reception and conference with patty leaders and members of town committees of Franklin County. The party came from Gardner and after the meeting left for Northampton. Senator Butler said that the principal task ahead of the party in the coming campaign was to bring out the full Republican vote of the State on election day. He stressed the fact that this was especially necessary in the small towns )fkthis section, where Republican votes so largely outnumbered the Democratic. The Senator called attention to the fact that in the last Senatorial contest, when Senator Frederick H.

Glllett defeated David I. Walsh, now Mr Butlers rival, by about 20,000 majority, that Walsh carried the city of Boston by a vote of more than 70,000. Because of this fact, even if the Boston Demd-ere certified to qualify him as a can- cratic vote were reduced, the heavy didate for the nominations of both par- vote of the strong Republican towns ties for reelection to that office. George should be brought out In order to E. Currans papers are fully approved, I counteract the Democratic vote of Bos-as are those of two other Democratic ton, he said.

Capper's Weekly district attorney in this State has a woman held position as an assistant administrator of the criminal law, and this pledge of the candidate wifi appeal to a large number of persons who recognize that in recent years conditions have changed to such an evtteeit that women have come to play an important part in the work of the courts.

The text of the statement: This announcement of my candidacy for district attorney of the Suffolk District has been approached with a deep regard for the judgment of those acquainted with this office and its functions. I have sought advice and invited criticism as to my entering into this contest. The indorse ment of my fellow-members of the bar and of many others who urged my candidacy is a tribute which I hope 1 deserve and of which I now make public acknowledgment. Current comment emphasizes my fitness and qualifications for the position of chief law officer of this county, and so 1 may becomingly merge a personal reference to myself in the judgment which has been generally expressed. Opposes Treadmill Justice Experience in the administration of criminal law Is an essential requirement for anyone seeking to become district attorney.

I have had such experience. I am a graduate of Boston College and received my law education In Boston University and at George Washington University in Washington. From 1909 to 1918 I was an assistant district attorney in this county. In that capacity I prosecuted in open court almost every kind of crime. I have investigated and examined cases of every degree of criminality.

My recommendations as to the disposition of cases were approved by the judges and in no instance did I surrender in any particular the functions that belong absolutely to the district attorney. I know the first offender as well as the confirmed criminal. Treadmill justice is abhorrent to me. Protection of society is the first duty of a district attorney. Leniency, too, has its place in the administration of criminal law.

I happily recall many Instances where I have redeemed the juvenile delinquent, the first offender. By JOHN D. MERRILL An Associated Press dispatch from Springfield last night contained the information that Charles F. Ely, brother of Ex-Dist Atty Joseph B. Ely of Westfield, had received a cable message from the latter, who is in Europe, to the effect that he will be a candidate for the Democratic nomination for Lieutenant Governor of Mas- vX- A -v 'v yets- 1 THdMAS I).

LAVELLE. Democratic Aepirant for Suffolk District Attorney Pot. 6achusetts. Charles F. Ely said that his brother had yielded to the requests of ex-Senator David I.

Walsh, and of Col William A. Gaston, who is a candidate for the Democratic nomination for Governor. Joseph B. Ely himself had intended to be a candidate for his partys nomination for Governor and his friends were confident that he could be nominated and elected, but a few weeks ago. when he went to Europe, he stated that he had made up his mind not to enter a fight In the primary.

His supporters thereupon abandoned wqrk in his behalf. It is now assumed that Mr Ely then knew of the efforts under way to persuade Col Gaston to be a candidate for Governor and was willing to put aside his own ambition in favor of the man whom the party leaders regarded as the strongest candidate. No Opposition Expected Two days ago, when Col Gaston's candidacy for the Governorship was announced and Mr Walshs statement was released that he would, as everybody had expected, run for the Senate, a cable message was sent to Mr Ely, candidates, Emory D. Morgan and Daniel W. Harrington.

Complete certification was achieved on the papers of Congressman James A. Galllivan, but John W. McCormack, his leading Democratic opponent in the 12th District fight, has as yet filed no papers. First papers were filed in the interest of Thomas D.

Lavelle, in the district attorney fight, and full certification was attained by William C. Prout. Register of Motors Frank A. Goodwin was certified as Republican candidate for the State Committee in the 2d District. William J.

Foley went over handsomely for place on the ballot as Democratic nominee for the district attorneyship. Both Dist Atty Arthur K. Reading and Representative Elijah Adlow qualified for places on the ballot in the contest for the Republican nomination for Attorney General. Congressman J. J.

Douglass of the 10th District, and his opponents fur tlje Democratic nomination, Ex-Congressman Peter F. Tague and Senator J. Francis, easily qualified for ballot places. Of the 5000 signatures necessary to plaice upon the ballot a referendum petitioned for by Charles W. Eliot and others for abolition of the veterans preference principle, 1328 signatures had been certified last night.

CONGRESSMAN FOSS IS OUT FOR REN0MINATI0N Papers for renomination to Congress from the 3d Massachusetts District were filed at the State House yesterday by Congressman Frank H. Foss of Fitchburg, Republican. Ex-Representative Edward C. Hinckley of Hyannis filed papers for the Republican nomination as State Senator from the Cape and Plymouth district. Senator John W.

Thayer of Lancaster, Republican, filed renomination papers for the -State Senate, as did Charles C. Warren of Arlington, Republican. SHERIFF KELIHER FILES FOR BOTH NOMINATIONS John A. Keliher, sheriff of Suffolk County, yesterday afternoon filed papers with Secretary of State Frederic W. Cook for both the Republican and Democratic nominations for his present office.

Others to file were Congressman A. Piatt Andrew of Gloucester, Republican, for renomination, and Frank B. Hall of Worcester, for Republican nomination for State Senator from the 1st Worcester District.

Workers for John J. Cummings, avowed candidate for the Democratic nomination for Governor who is in conflict with the aspiration of Col William A. Gaston, filed his first batch of names yesterday. No names have Tot been filed for Ex-Senator David I. i ftalsh or for Col Gaston.

The required quota of names for W. Hall of Springfield, as candidate for the Democratic nomination for Lieutenant Governor, was certified. Gov Alvan T. Fuller and Senator William M. Butler furnished enough tames of registered Boston voters to qualify them for places on the Repub-hcan ballot.

Enough signatures on the nomlna-bon papers of Sheriff John A. Keliher I 'Electrical demonstrating the truth of that statement. Warning to Butler Seen Now Mr Cook is a candidate for renomination for the Council and Mr Ollendorff will run against him in the primary. The formers gesture to the effect that he may be also an independent candidate for the United States Sedate is looked on as a warning to the Republican organization, that he will retaliate against Senator i Butler if it uses its influence to bring about Mr Ollendorff's nomination to the Governors Council. Mr Cook could not expect, or even reasonably hope, to be elected to the Senate, but some of the politicians are inclined to think it possible that he might receive a few thousand votes, which would normaly go to Mr Butler, and that, if the Senatorial contest between Mr Butler and Ex-Senator David I.

Walsh proves to be as close as now seems likely, those votes may be enough to elect Mr Walsh. It will be remembered that in the Senatorial election of 1918, when Mr Walsh defeated John W. Weeks, who was then a candidate for reelection, Thomas W. Lawson ran as an independent candidate and received almost 22,000 votes, which would have been sufficient to reelect Mr Weeks if they had been thrown for him. The analogy here is plain.

Cooks, Long Republican Thorn The Cook family has been for some years a sharp thorn in the side of the Republican party in Massachusetts. Most of the trouble, however, has been caused by the State auditor; Washington Cook was not heard of outside his own town until he ran against Mr Ollendorff In 1924. Alonzo B. Cook has many times tried the patience of the Republican leaders, but they have found it impossible to defeat him for renomination. Thus far he has done nothing which indicates that he blames Senator Butler for the candidacy of Roswell F.

Phelps of Dedham, who Is running for the Republican nomination for the State audltorship. Senator Butler, however, is having his troubles. A few months ago, when the controversy about the added water supply for the Metropolitan District and the city of Worcester was at its height on Beacon Hill, it was common gossip that some of the enthusiastic and perhaps irresponsible supporters of Worcester talked about Nwhat they would do to Senator Butler if he did not favor their project. That difficulty has apparently been disposed of, but since that time attempts have been made to tie Mr Butler up with other measures and with contests for office. All of which makes it plain that a candidates lot is not a happy one.

Butler Making a Tour Senator Butler is spending two days this week in a tour of the Connecticut Valley region. His itinerary called for visits yesterday and today at Northampton. Greenfield, and probably Amherst, South Hadley, Holyoke, West Springfield and Chicopee. This trip is taken to give him an opportunity to meet the Republican workers in those cities and towns. Announcement that Ex-Congressman Peter F.

Tague and Senator John J. Francis of this city will be candidates against Congressman John J. Douglass when the latter comes up for renomination in the 10th Congressional District apparently does not disturb Mr Uolig lass friends. They say that if he must have opposition, it is better from his point of view that it should be divided rather than concentrated in one candidate. Thomas D.

Lavelle is a candidate for the Democratic nomination for district attorney of Suffolk County. Mr Lavelle was for seven years from 1909 to 1918 an assistant district attorney, and is therefore familiar wUh the duties of the office. He is onlykme of several candidates for the Democratic nomination. Among the others. In addition to Dist Atty OBrien, ywho will seek also the Republican nomination, are Messrs Foley, Kane, Patron, Prout and Sheenan.

To Name Woman as Aid Referring to his long experience in the administration of criminal law, pointing out that it is quite important to redeem the Juvenile delinquent, the first offender and the unfortunate as it la to deal sternly with the hardened criminal, Mr Lavelle expressed his ab-horence of treatmll! Justice, and said: Knowing as 1 do the broad scope of the district attorneys functions, I intend to appoint a woman assistant district attoi-ney with all the powers enjoyed by her mala confreres. This Is an act that changed conditions and common sense dictates and one which I now pledge myself. Never iq the history of tho office of I i 'I i HI II The coming election in this State, he said, was of national importance and he'added that the eyes of the country would be directed on the results which would be taken as an Indication of the attitude the Presidents own State was taking op-dlis administration. He told of the organization work which was already being undertaken in Boston by the City Committee, in which not only in each but in many precincts, men and women have assumed the responsibility for getting out the full vote of the neighborhoods in which they live. The Senator said that he hoped to be able to remain in Massachusetts from now until the Fall election and that during that time he planned to visit every section of the State more than once.

This plan may, however, be changed somewhat if his duties on the National Committee should call him to other parts of the country. He stated that he had no definite plans for visiting President Coolidge at his Summer camp at Paul Smiths in the Adi-rondacks. GARDNER, July 29-'Senator William M. Butler made a brief stop here today and conferred with local Republican leaders, lie said that the principal task ahead of his party is that of perfecting an organization to bring out a full vote on election day. MANNING CANDIDATE FOR DEMOCRATIC NOMINATION BROCKTON, July 29 Ex-Mayor Frank A.

Manning today announced his candidacy for the Democratic nomination for Congress in the 14th District. He will oppose Joseph Lafon-taine, who announced himself as a candidate several weeks ago, and, if successful, will oppose Congressman Louis A. Frothingham. Mr Manning began his political career when he was 21, being eleted to the Common Council. Later he was for seven years in the Legislature from a district nominally Republican.

He was Mayor in 1923, after two defeats, and was defeated for reelection and again last year. PROUT PROMISES NEW DEAL IFGIVEN OFFICE Attorney William C. Profut, candidate for district attorney in the September primary, spoke to a meeting of his followers and organization committee last night in Chlpman Hall, Tremont Temple. Mr Prout said he was not going to discuss the present incumbent of the district attorneyship, as Mr OBrien had not yet made any statement of candidacy. I am conducting my campaign under sincere pledges that if I am elected I will give my utmost to serve the people of Suffolk County honestly and faithfully, he said.

I am not under the domination of any political ring; I am under no political obligations. If I am placed in the office which I seek there will be a new deal, with fairness and justice for all. asking him whether he would consent to take second place on the State ticket in order to strengthen it. It is taken for granted that Mr Eiy win be unopposed in the primary. Mr Elys attitude tends toward harmony among Massachusetts Democrats, but complete unity has not yet been obtained.

John J. Cummings of this city, two years ago the party nominee for Lieutenant Governor, is now on a tour of military duty at Fort Ethan Allen, Vt, and, so far as is 'Sv''53" vf 4 js-tV4 -y- I. 3 A -i fy. JV'. JOSEPH B.

EDY. known, he has taken no steps toward withdrawing as a candidate for the gubernatorial nomination this year or authorized anyone to act in his behalf. The party leaders, however, are confident that Mr Cummings will retire before the primary. They say they will bring no pressure to bear on him; they express confidence tfiat he would make a poor showing against Col Gaston in the primary. Cook Move Interests G.

O.P. Massachusetts Republicans are interested in theactivltiekof Washington Cook of Sharon, a member of the Governors Council, who has taken out nomination papers not only for the office he now holds, but also as an independent candidate for the United States Senate from Massachusetts. Washington Cook is a brother of State Auditor Alonzo B. Cook. Washington Cook was elected to the Governors Council two years ago after he had run for the nomination in the Republican primary and defeated William W.

Ollendorff of Medway, who was then filling his first term in the Council. Before the primary no one expected that Mr Ollendorff would have any trouble in obtaining a re-nomlnatlon, and, in consequence of that belief, Mr Ollendorff did not exert himself in the primary campaign until it was too late. It was commonly said at the time that Mr Ollendorff would have been renominated if he had followed the advice of his friends and made an active campaign before the primary, but there is no way of TODAY All Unusual Full Size Couch Hammocks The Globe Hollow Mystery By HANNAH GARTLAND Save JSaby fom Filthy and filthy file men-r Bahv'n health and life.
