ty committeeman, had previously
been mailed to Chairman Mott Ayres

ference YVES that Mr.. Emery he's been
recognized by the Dem ocrstic machine
OF 81 ssate frd d.strics, and there was
no desire to turn him down. Although
M. Diesel had o certificate showing
thai he was the ''only recognized

recognize him as the "onliest" one.
1t was afraid to throw Mr.. Diegel out,
ard did rot desire to throw Mr.. En-

doubtless on the theory that half a
