which had sweated out with him q
fabulous week end Of local and
national manipulations. During
that period the leftist laborites who
support Bobrowicz, working here
and at the rally of progressive lead
ers in Chicago. exerted their full
powers of persuasion to prevent the
Tehan disavowal.
Proofs Assembled.
At the same time, in Washington,
forces mustered by the national
committee were helping Tehan as
semble proofs regarding Bobrowicz
that might be used to convince
labor, liberals and CIO that this
was no case of Red-baiting.
The Ieftists won the first round.
While the Tehan statement was
being hammered out, they secured
a public declaration of support by
the local CIO-PAC for Bobrowicz.
Informed of this development and
being fully apprised also of TEXANS
program, Jack Kroll, Sidney Hill
mans successor as national boss OF
dispatched his assistant,
Telford Dudley, to Milwaukee to see

repair matters.

will be in the way Of defeat for DEM

ties so carefully cemented at Chi
cago remains to be seen.
Much at Stake.
The Democrats have lot to lose.
So does Tehan personally. Now that
the Progressives have faded from
the scene, he had his first chance
to build up a respectable Democratic
Machine which could represent Wis
consin liberalism.
The seat for which Bobrowicz was
quite accidentally nominated was in
the bank. 1t is one of two held by
Democrats out of 10 in the State,
but 1t was safe. The incumbent
carried it by $1,000 in 1914.
In addition, the Democratic can
didate for Senator, Howard McMur-
ray, has a real chance to win due
to assorted local conditions. One
of these is that the Republican Won
der boy, Judge Joseph r. Mccarthy,
who defeated Bob La Toilette for
the nomination, is dishing out di-

at unprecedented speed. But now
McMurray's chance have probably
gone glimmering.
AL these facts were well known
to the national committee strate-
gists who conferred with Tehan.
They need those votes in Congress
and they hated to risk losing them.
But they agreed to give him both
support and funds.
Tehan, State Senator, Is ge-
nial Irishman. He has born up
well-but he admits he is little
tired OF being greeted by his towns
folk, who relish his dilemma, with
Hello, Bob, how's Bobrowicz?"

McLemore took trip the suitcase
was brought down from the attic,
| its straps rnended, and then vase
lined all over to give it a rich ap-
pearance.
Wonder where that suitcase is
now? I hooked it after week or
so, and never did get around to re-
deeming it. 7 came in at Pennsyl-
vania Station, travelling day coach,
and 1t took me nearly eight hours
to screw up enough courage to leave
the station. I would stick my head
through the door, take one look at
the rushing, roaring traffic, and re-
treat to bench in the rest room.

daylight. I fell into the hands OF
one of those men sent out by hotels

I forget the name of the one he

the Casbah look like corner suite

I reached New York with the idea
Of giving my talents to either the

during that first month in New
York, I wound up as a salesman
delivery clerk for a circulating IL

second floor of a building on the
northeast corner of Forty-Second
street and Fifth avenue, and my
lob was to distribute and collect
books from office workers.
