INDEPENDENT PARTY
CAUSING MUCH WORRY
Hodges Campaign Manager
Frantic Workmen Re

The success attending the independent
party at Gary. which renominated Mayor
Johnson. who was elected on an inde-
pent ticket four years ago. IS causing
alarm at the Hodges headquarters.
Hodges managers are e-ndeavoring to
stem the rush to the independent ban

making but little impression.
Reports to o. 8.
Rumors have come to independent
party headquarters as TO the methods
that will be employed to line up work
men ana as to whom will be designated
to 90 the lining up. For one thing any
lining up will not only invite the at.
tention to the liners but to their
superiors. as attorneys have been re.

work. II is proposed to file a report
with Frank c. Daley. special United
State attorney for elections. Mr.. DALEY
caused some indictments to be returned
in Gary and Lake county, but there are
those who have pointed out that the
big ones" are yet to be ned. Should
any overt acts be attempted in the way
of lining up workmen, many of whom
would think that their jobs would de-
pend on obeying hints. 1T is proposed TO
make a report this month and invite Mr..
Dailay's attention to the observation OF
the Gary system as 1t operates. Not
that the government possibly has any
jurisdiction over the city election. but IL
there is any raw" work the process
