Jewett, Coffin and Demo
cratic States Probably
to Enter Race.

Filing of at least three states Of
candidates for nominations for city
Offices under the present form of
| government, as a matter of precau-
ton in case The city manager law
is declared unconstitutional, is eX-
pected before midnight Saturday.
The filings will be precipitated by
the filing by Charles W. JeWett, Re-
publican, former mayor. of his dec
lacation of candidacy for the Re-
publican nomination for mayor at
primary which would be held
May 7 we're it not for the fact that
city manager government will go
into effect next year.
Jewett was to confer with his ad-
visers today to finally determine
whether he will file.
Coffin in Conference.
George w. Coffin, Republican city
chairman, was in conference today
with his henchmen on possible
choice for mayor.
Some of Coff1ns closest advisors
have told him that the filing Of
city slate is an unnecessary pre-
caution because of the saving
clause in the amended city man
ager law, which provides for a city
primary and election in event the
law is declared unconstitutional.
Attorneys, however, differ on the
Interpretation of this clause, some
declaring that if the bill is found
unconstitutional the saving clause
must perforce die with it.
If Coffin does file. it is declared
that he will select prominent busi-
ness man to head the ticket.
Pressure on Moxley
f Kirk Mckinney, Democratic
city chairman, frankly confessed to-
day that he does not desire to file a
slate. But if JeWett files We'll have
to in self protection" he declared.
Pressure is being brought to bear
upon G.. Barret Moxley, president OF
| the Kiefer- Stewart Drug Company
to permit the use of his name as
the Democratic mayoralty candi-
! date.
Robert Springsteen. city council
man. and Howe Landers are also
suggested.
Full Slate Expected
A full slate of candidates for city
clerk and the six city council posts
will be filed with Jewett's declara-
ton if he decides to make the fight.
JeWett, does not expect William
A. Boyce Jr., city clerk, to acknoWl-
edge the filing Of the candidates, be-
cause under the city manager form
of government only candidates for
city commissioners are elected and
! they need not file until within sixty
days of the November election.
If Boyce refuses to accept the
filing JeWett is expected to ask Cir
cult Judge Harry O. Chamberlin to
mandate Boyce to accept the sigma
lures and in event Chamberlin re-
fuses to take this step, JeWett may
appeal to the supreme court, there
by bringing up the question of the
constitutionality of the city mana
ger law.
Precautionary Step
The former mayor also explained
his filing is precautionary step in
event the supreme court declares
the manager law unconstitutional
in deciding the New Albany and
Evansville contests.
In that event Indianapolis would
be without properly qualified can
didates for city Offices and Mayor
