La Guardia for Mayor of New York
Hays, Arthur Garfield | July 19, 1933 issue

add to cart   close window

The article focuses on the mayoral elections held in Tammany, a powerful Democratic political organization of New York City, in 1933. According to the author, never in the history of New York City, has it incurred the resentment and wrath of so many and so diverse foes, as of Tammany. A crushing tax burden and the failure to apply real economy measures have driven into the camp of its enemies many of its former allies. The revelations of the Seabury investigation, coupled with Tammany's brazen refusal to clean house, have alienated even the ordinarily apathetic citizen.
