at the Academy of Music, in Norfolk,
Monday night, called by insurgents"
In the interest Of Representative May
nard's claim that he and not Young
was the rightful nominee of the
congressional primary, met with
open revolt against the party organi-
cation, intensified by the refusal of the
district committee to order an investi-
cation.
There was thousand who could not
get into the academy.
The meeting was called to demand
that the Democratic State central COM
mittee order an investigation Of the
primary election and to ask that the
grand jury examine into the allega-
tons Of fraud in Norfolk. Both Of
these things were done, but they were
of minor consequence as compared to
the apparent open revolt against the
organization.
