Morris say that he would not have consented to make the race for Mayor on the Democratic Demo-cratic tickot had hn not been given assurances as-surances that, the " head of the street" would not oppose him. " Morris is the mau you follows have got to beat," is a common challenge from Democrats to. Americans, and certainly cer-tainly there is much confidence in the I Democratic ranks that "tho brethren"! will be for Brother Morris this year. i At the same time the confidence liasn't extended clear down the line. I Some people who wouldn't object to aj nomination for minor place on the j Democratic ticket, haven't yet made up j their minds that the church, "while sup- porting Brother Morris, will hiipport the whole Democratic ticket. Lnless they are assured of that effect before i their convention next Miesday it will be hard scratching to fill the Demo- i cratic ticket.
