Murchie Defends City Committee Funding Against O'Meara
Guy W. Murchie treasurer of the Republican city committee says Stephen O'Meara's charge that funds from Eugene N. Foss aided the eleventh district campaign are absurd. O'Meara claims the committee used Foss money. Foss replies no bargains were made and contributions benefited the party. The dispute centers on whether Foss provided $500 and any conditional payments, with the issue to be clarified by Foss's sworn expenditures and state court interpretation.
