The general public is prepared to be-

the fact that the probable nomination
of Mccarthy on the union labor ticket

have played small part in San Fran

MCNAB MEN Do NOT
NDORSE fICK[RT
Regular Democrats Are for
Francis j. Heney for District
Attorney Nomination

The MeNab regular democratic or
ganization is at a white heat of rage
over the McLeran democrats charge
that the regulars had been told to
write in the name of Charles NJ Flick
ert for the democratic nomination for
district attorney.
Gavin McNab, the big boss of the
democratic organization. repeated his
denials of any connection with the at
tempt to give Fiekert the democratic
nomination, and Chairman Thomas w.
Hickey of the county committee issued
a formal statement, IN which he de-
clared that the organization had no part
in the attempt to give Fickert the
democratic nomination and further that
he purposed to write the name of
Francis ]. Heney on the democratic
ballot today McNab said:
'T do not know Mr.. Fickert. He
may be all right, but he comes from
a bad political source. Oppenheim is
an old college mate of Fickert, which
undoubtedly explains his attitude in
the matter. The democratic organiza-
tion is taking no hand for Fickert and
charges to the contrary are ridiculous"
Here is Hickey's formal address and
explanation to democratic voters:
To Democratic Voters:
THE democratic voters attention
is called to the fact that cer-
tain evening paper has circulated
the report that the regular demo-
cratic organization is encouraging
Democrats to write upon the ballot
the name of Charles NJ. Fickert for
district attorney.
THE regular democratic organ
ization has done nothing of the
kind. 1t stands as it has always
stood. for the prosecution OF every
criminal, be he rich or poor, and
for the equality of all before the
law.
The statement that the demo-
cratic organization is for Charles
NJ Fickert is false in its entirety
and is published for the purpose OF
deceiving democrats. AS far as I
know, but one member of the reg
ular democratic organization,
college mate of Mr.. F'ickert's, Mr..
Morris Oppenheim. is giving his
support to Mr.. Fickert and he is
doing this for personal reasons
only, and in so doing it is not the
spirit OF the regular democratic
organization.
Personally. 1 shall tomorrow
write the name of Francis J.
Heney on my democratic ballot.
