question of what recognition the Italian z. 0. D. voters gre to get on the ticket this fall. It will be re- membered that in the spring the United Italian Republican club met ct Liberty hail to entertain state and local leaders and that the pres- ident of the group, Peter DeCicco, aSsaiied those who dumped" Attor. ney Frederick w. Palornba aS town chairman. MT. DeCicco dubbed the behind -the.Scene aS 0 "F'rank- enStein".
 Tonight's meeting is expected to bring forth more heated talk with the faction headed by Prosecuting Attorney Charles R. Sumna taking the stand that the steering coEn- rnittee's" wishes should be respected.
 Rank, File ResentfuI
 Serious resentment prevails in the rank and Ale of local Italian repub. leans who constitute the backbone of the 6. 0. ?. organization. The busting of the Italians from their councils and the decision Of the 6. 0. D. town committee to recognize only the Sunrna club has caused the feeling to rise to rever heat. u
 Most Of the loyal party workers, some of them influential leaders ir1 local political and fraternal orga- nizationB, have refused to cooperate with the machine.
 Prominent Italian American lead- CTS feel that the reason why 6 minority faction is being recognized, Is to keep the Italian fighting among themselves. The situation for the 6. O. ?. promises to become worse in the near future with the thousands of new voters being mostly of Italian extraction and the difficulty in keeping the newer generation from receiving recogni- ton.
 They feel that they are entitled to have c candidate for the 18th senatorial district because they are not pressing for recognition in re. gardS to the congressional candidate for the 6th district, nor do they want e candidate for state repre- sentative, which they feel is not aS valuable.
 MonxanI Not Their Choice
 The z. o. D. town committee seems to realize their predicament and now seems to consider Coroner John T. Monzani as c choice in or- der to appease the disgidents.
 But owing to the fact that MT. A IL Italians generally nor Is he identi- fled with any of their activities, and especially because he has not been chosen by them, the nomination would not accomplish the purpose of the 6. 0. p. machine.
