"DIGNIT
"Boss" William E. Clauer promised a campaign of "dignity" in behalf .of his machine candidate for the mayoralty.
"Boss" Clauer and his henchmen, some of wkom being « eng aged in the beer and liquor business, :
‘are vitally interested in the nomination of their candidate. Below is pic-
tured his condidate accepting the "dignified" backing of two of the Democratic machine leaders.
Mr. and Mrs. Voter, would you call this “DIGNITY”?
Left to Right—Mr. Clauer, Mr. Sullivan, Mr. McKinney
Here is pictured, in a reprint from an Tnidianapolis » newspaper of March 7th, the “MACHINE’S” candidate for mayor, Mr. Reginald H. Sullivan, publicly accepting the backing of ‘beer importer BOSS CLAUER and former beer dealer Frank McKinney, and their political machine. As he accepted, Mr. Sullivan said he would not make an active campaign. The bosses’ henchmen shouted in return, “We’ll take care of that.” Is the acceptance of.this kind of support the way of “taking care of
that”?
Can Mr. Sullivan ever avoid pa ying a debt of gratitude to the machine?
Here is what an Indianapolis newspaper said, editorially, on December 28, about liquor, politics and a public offices
DOES PORT OF ENTRY DEALER, POLITICAL BOSS CLAUER, WANT TO DRAG LIQUOR - CONTROLLED POLITICS INTO THE MAYOR'S OFFICE?
MR. AND MRS. VOTER, you must drive out POLITICAL BOSSISM to obtain real DIGNITY in public office. “CLAUERISM” and its liquor hookups must be banished forever. The figureheads of the BOS. must not be placed in offices of PUBLIC TRUST.
IF YOU DESIRE CLEAN, HONEST GOVERNMENT, WITH DIGNITY AND RESPECT, SMASH THE POLITICAL MACHINE BY VOTING FOR OTTO RAY.
IF YOU WANT AGGRESSIVE, DYNAMIC AND FORCEFUL LEADERSHIP, VOTE FOR OTTO RAY, A MAN OF ACTION, WHO, IF ELECTED, . WILL BE MAYOR IN FACT AND NOT MERELY IN NAME.
Some who have signed Sullivan’s petition are being told that since they signed they must vote for Sullivan. This is not {rue and is direc intimidation of voters.
