Knife Collins Defends Loan Bill at Minot Hall Meet

John Lee defended the loan bill amid opposition from Street Commissioner Dore who was expelled from the Democratic organization as a renegade. Senator-elect Sullivan led the strongest denunciations of Dore and the loan bill, calling it extravagant. Sullivan alleged Dore sold out to Mayor Hart for a mere meal after 17 years with the party.
