Scheme to Down Mayor Johnson Under Headway
A meeting of anti Johnson Democrats at the Hollenden Hotel plans to revolt against Mayor Tom L. Johnson by capturing county and Congressional conventions this fall. Harry W. Wilson backs the scheme claiming Park Board law shifts parks from City Hall control and weakens Johnson-Salen-Goldsoll support. They aim to act quietly until the ouster suit ruling, expected soon in the Supreme Court, possibly weakens Johnson's cabinet. If the ruling moves against him, Democrats will unite and target the Johnson machine.
