Atwater Warns Democrats Against Overconfidence
Mayor Fred Atwater warned Democratic supporters of Third district voters that over-confidence could undo re election hopes. He spoke to a full club room despite bad weather, praising current officers, defending a city library deal, noting a $2,000,000 saving, and denying claims that economies harmed city workers. Attorney James Murphy rebutted those charges, linking them to unemployment concerns from last year.
