Smith Adherents Seek to Placate Wet Opposition
Smith campaign leaders aim to soften opposition from wet Democrats by stressing a newer, more cosmopolitan Tammany. They insist the party must shed old prejudices and project class and tone to win respect in the north and east while avoiding wet state alliances and preserving local party standards nationwide. The anti Smith stance remains deep in the south and parts of the west, with religion cited as a key factor though other reasons exist.
