Flynn says Willkie book ads were safe and prearranged
Edward J. Flynn, chairman elect of the DNC, stated Wendell L. Willkie’s threats to prosecute advertisers in the Democratic campaign book are unfounded. He noted ads were contracted before Hatch bill and no sales are planned. The book will be distributed to 100000 Democratic speakers and workers.
