This happened when the King machine was at it's greatest power, when it was working the smootnesr and had every factor in it's favor. Spellacy at that time carr3ed the Sec ond, Fourth, Sixth. Seventh. Eighth, the Second precinct of the Ninth ana Tenth, and the Twtlfth districts. The Fifth district caused his defeat. Con- trast the strength of the King ma chine then and now. Today it is but a fragment, 1t is well nigh powerless. ried the city by plurality of 4,400 votes. Mayor FitzGerald is the Al Smith of Connecticut He will poll a heavy vote. s2ellacy Is popular. I believe that the law or averages spell a Democratic victory"

 ''The best observers say the Demo crate ticket will be elected by a small plurality, 5000 to 10000.
