As I stated in the edit summary, his masonic activities are "irrelevant trivia", except the mention that he was at some time Grand Master of New York. Almost all politicians and notable members of the community in the United States are freemasons, elks, rotarians and/or odd fellows. Wikipedia is not "Who's Who", an encyclopedia has a different scope. Kraxler (talk) 12:36, 20 January 2015 (UTC)
