Mr.. DeSapio brings to the Har.

gifts that the more intellectual
stevenson followers frankly
envy. Among his greatest talent;
is q card-fiie memory for people
He can pluck passing face oui

he will say in his low voice. 'How

talked about last week?"

after q political dinner--he can

Reason for Nickname
Mondays he devotes to re-
ceiving his district leaders at the
Hall. He Is So earnest and in
tently listening that the confer
ences remind some Of the con-
fession, which accounts for his
nickname of *The Bishop"
They always come out smil-

Is now the CHIEF, he has retained
his district leadership with head
quarters at the Tamawa Club.

How did Mr.. DeSapio gain
what one Of his followers has
called such i .holtn oh his fol-

"I'm not the kind Of guy they
