Moorehaven, Fla. — Mrs. George
Quintard Horwitz, society woman of
Philadelphia and personal operator of
a 2,000-acre Everglades farm, may be
elected mayor of Moorchaven in spite
of her refusal to accept the unanimous
nomination of the electors of Florida's
first suffrage city to be its first mayor.
Mrs. Horwitz said she did not think a
woman should hold such a responsible
public office:
At a town meeting held on July 28,
it was decided to elect her in spite of
her announcement. One hundred rep-
resentative men and women pledged ,
themselves to work at the polls for
her election.
Mrs.' Horwitz marketed 50 carloads
of potatoes, 30,000 bushels of corn and
many hogs and cattle from her war
farm this year.
Mrs. Horwitz was formerly Miss
Marian Newhall and is the widow of
a prominent Philadelphia lawyer.
