Rock Faction Dominates South Dakota Democrats Here
Attorney General Caldwell finds the legislature lawful to revive old party committees. Until a new primary committee is elected, the old county and state Democrat leaders, led by Dr. H. J. Rock of Aberdeen, are the legal party organ. The Johnson Gandy meeting’s later committee has no legal existence. The Rock faction governs Democratic actions until May primaries.
