Office Nomination
INDIANAPOLIS. June 20, (IT)— I The bitter inter-party fight between 1 factions headed by R. Earl I'etei- md i Frank Mayr. Jr., threatens to -teal the spotlight at the Democratic tate
I convention tomorrow.
The factional ditterence, broke i at two months ago and reached an anticlimax when party re-organization | was completed in May. At that time Mayr. secretary of state, who fought vigorously to defeat Peters’ re-elec- I
tion as state chairman, was ovrr ' i,,,, , l M ,
whelmingly rebuffed. Peters’ gained nearly all chairmen and vice chairmen
1 in the 12 district .
When Petei -. was returned to oft fire, it at first was believed tint “dis- | ciplinary" action would be taken i | against Mayr. This i ventually quiet ed a- Peters forces took the attitude of “letting bygone.- Ire bygones.” The breach was sealed to the extent that at a lerent Sixth district rally a reso lution was adopted urging re-nomina-tion of all Democrats holding two
year offices.
Witn the eve of the convention approaching, however, new fuel has been cast on the fire. Reports were current today that Peters was planning to place a candidate in.the field to oppose Mayr for renomination. Peteis’ support ’ f another candidate would make his election probable It would be the first time in years that a two-year office holder was not re
nominated.
