I have turned the key
On an old desire.
Left 1t in a room
Where there is no IRE.
Left 1t all alone.
Windowless ana damp
A very old desire
Without food or lamp.
Surely It has died
In so dull q place
Died as does a stem
In shallow vase.
Yet I may not rest
For the ceaseless call
Coming from a thing
Hid behind wall.

City hall faction of the Republican
party, dominated by William H.
Armitage and Mayor Shank, will
support John L. Duvall, Republican
nominee for mayor, at the No
vember election it was Indicated to-
day.
Despite the heated denunciations
passing between the Duvall camp
and the Armitage-Shank faction,
which threw it's strength behind the
candidacy of Ralph A. Lemcke for
the Republican nomination, during
the primary campaign a number Of
city hall leaders have pledged their
votes to Duvall.
While asserting 1t is too early to
reach a decision as to whether he
will back Republican nominee,
Armitage today predicted the defeat
of Walter Myers, Democratic can.

obtain more than two thousand
colored votes.

Shank said he had no intention of
removing police or firemen for C
tivities in behalf Of Duvall.
City hall leaders denied rumors
that J.. r. Rainier. chief of the
assessment bureau, said to have
worked at the polls for Duvall, the
Klan-indorsed candidate, would be
forced to resign.

according to Shank. collected $4,000
from police, firemen and other to
aid in financing the Lemcke race,
said:
ut looks like Duvall. I'm going

know whether Duvall wants me or
not
Zener asserted that he played a
lone hand" in the recent primary
and would carry out this policy in
the election contest.
City hall leaders said Mayor Shank
was unable to line up a number of
his political captains to support
Lemcke in the campaign because Of
their former conflicts with the Jew
ett-Lemcke faction. Department
would be changes in personnel Of
city employees because they refused
to work for Lemcke.
Past Recalled
Armitage was an early visitor a.
the city hall today and conferred
with a number Of department heads.
Big Bill is Sweet William now
was a catch phrase used by Duvall
to indicate that the name Of
Armitage, which had been anathcma
to Lemcke in former campaigns,
was popular in recent race, because
of the support Of the Armitage.
Shank faction for Lemcke.
Whether Duvall will accept as
sistance Of Armitage in election
race remains to be seen.
