 SPECTACULAR ONE
Ey-hayor Thompson Seeks Re

Chicago, March IS (UP)-A cam paign involving CMcago's politicians is underway here preparatory 10 the mayoralty election April 5.
 Such men as George r. Brennan, Democratic boss. Fred Lundin. Re- publican boss, |. s. Senator Charles Deneen and William Hale Thomp- son, have been drawn into this years contest which promises 10 be one Of the most spectacular in the history Of the city.
 The election this year is between Mayor William F. Dever. Democrat, former Mayor William Hale Thomn- son, Republican, and Dr. John Dill Robertson, Independent.
 The primaries resulted as migh. te expected. Big Bill' Thompson was nominated on the Republican ticket. However primary day was re- plete with sanCuinary acts of gun men. abduction of election workers. thefts ot ballots and appearance Of machine guns in the hands ot po- lice. l. was a bitter contest but Thompson won harlily.
 Already the warning has gone out that trouble may be expected on election day and police and county officials are taking precautions to prevent 8 similar outbreak Of vio- lance.
 The issue involved are somewhat submerged behind personalities. Mayor Dever, who has served one term, Is center:ng his fight on the success Of his administration and the promise that the city shall have | chance to vote on whether sub ways are to be installed in Chicago. This traction problem is one of the main civic questions before the pub lie now.
 Former Mayor Thompson, who served Chicago two terms. is making his plea on list Of national topics. He favors America First" He re- gently went to Washington 10 give aid for passage Of the Boulder Can yon bill. He says that gang rule will be deleted from Chicago, that he Will fight for repeal Of the state search and seizure law and that his police department will spend it's time ending crime rather than the drinking Of intoXicants.
 Dr. Robertson has spent most Of his time attacking the former ad- ninistration Of Thompson, saying it vas marked with graft and ineffici- ency. Robertson was city health commissioner under the former Thompson regime.
 Throughout the campaign the workings Of the big political ma chimes of Chicago can be seen. The Brennan machine has been started behind Dever. Thompson is being backed by the Crowe- Barrett Re publican machine and peace has been restored so that the Deneen faction is at least not fighting

along the basin of the Rio Grande. His
men all have shoes and plenty of
clothes and they know how to live in
