Eley Tells Rockland to Back Him for 27th District
Republican Joseph J. Eley of New City urged Rockland County voters to back his bid to defeat Democratic Rep. John G. Dow in the 27th District primary. He warned against assuming an easy race, said Dow must be beaten on his home ground, and predicted heavy help from Washington and Sen. Robert F. Kennedy. Eley criticized rival candidates Louis V. Mills and Martin G. McKneally for tactics and delays, pledged a candid, issue driven campaign, and blamed McKneally for filing but dropping a petition challenge. He emphasized a Rockland County campaign and attractive party organization.
