INDEPENDENTS IN
 SESSION TONIGHT
Endorsement of Vincent Scully Expected at Nomi-
 mating Caucus

Chairman James Hartley of the Independent Democratic town com mittee declared today that legal ac- tion would be taken against any persons, attempting to take part in the party's nominating caucus to- night, who took part in the regular Democratic primary last week. He cited state law which forbids par ticipation in the primaries of more than one party.
 It is expected that the Indepen- dent Democrats will endorse Vim cent A. Scully, the regular party nominee for mayor. Endorsement of other Democratic candidates is expected also, with 8 possibility that the Independents will name one or more of their members to the ticket.
 Some circles in the party today said they favored backing only the Scully candidacy, leaving the rest of the ticket blank. Scully support CTS in the party were ready to fight any attempt to keep the caucus from endorsing him.
 The Independent Democrats will hold their nominating caucus at the Y. M. c. A.. The only ones allowed to participate will be those on the party's caucus list, provided they did not take part in the regular Democratic primary.
