stimulate fears of voters that the national Democratic machine will try to use the power of the cities—payrolls, millions of dollars in. contracts—to capture midwestern states next year. They are saying Mayor Bayt

{apolis’ City Hall for the purposes
of power politics.” Hence, Mayor Bayt and other Democratic mayoralty candidates in Indiana will be forced to dodge the heat the best way they can. And most of them will be jumping party lines on national issues in order to keep the campaigning down to municipal problems,
