Kelley's Idols Call
 OnLonergan To Help
DeIuge of Letters Forwarded Senator Asking to Recommend Acting Postmaster For Appointment

port. somo of the clty's most prominent democrats. it is known, arc among those who have urged Senator Lonergan anow to recon. mend Acting Postmaster Kelley for tho permanent appointment. Tho hint oe Mir Crary's endorse. ment, instead of furthering Com. missioner Bnbln'B chances, has re. vivcd tho activity of those who hRvo beon advancing Mir Kolley's name to Washington as the most logical choleo. The public support given tho acting postmaster prev. iously has been more than doubled with tho news thas his opponent will bo tho ono designated by the town committee chairman Rs his choice.
 A rift In sentiment In democratic party circles seemed more than a moro possibility today unless the federal appointment goes to Mr Kelley. Many party leaders have como out unquallfiedly for the act- ing postmaster and stated that the appointment should be deservedly his,
 As predicted before, Mir Kelley has exceptionally strong backing from tho general public In his bi,l for tho permanent appointment. Tho extent of that support had not been fully realised, however, until it was learned that Mir Crary will glvo his endorsement to commis- sionor Babin. Strongly worded iet- ters favorinR Acting Postmaster Kelley have boon sent to Washing. ton sinco tho news of tho town committee chnlrman's choice.
 1t is considered doubtful that Senator Lonorgan, despite the town committee'B endorsement of Mr Babln, will neglect considering the wldo and strong backing that Mir Kelley is receiving from the gen. oral public. This backing, added to tho fact thnt ho has been in tho postal service for more than 2S years and hns worked his way to tho acting postmastorship, is con. slderod a most important factor in Senator Lonorgan'B final choice.
 Tho selection of Commlssloner Babin, it is felt, would react unfav. ornbly on tho Democratic party 10. cally. Tho acting postmhBter'a friends and supporters feel that he should be given tho nomination and will boar . roai grievance otherwise.
