Allen Carries Rock Island Ward 18 in Primary Contest
Frank G. Allen entered the Rock Island primary, carrying Ward 18 and winning twenty delegates to the county convention while contesting C. J. Searle in all wards. Despite a strong showing, Allen was defeated overall, highlighting GOP support for the Moline candidate among Rock Island Republicans.
