From a national standpoint, the election may well serve as a political weather vane on doings at the White House. For that 1s the paramount issue—the New Deal. Leading the assault, in a weirdly hybrid combination of Republican, Tammany and anti-New Deal Demo- cratic forces, is the gentle-voiced, joke-cracking Senator Dr. Royal §. “Health Hints” Copeland. A Democrat, Senator Copeland has tessed his hat into both the Repub- lican and Democratic primaries, hop- ing to rally enough anti-Roosevelt votes to conquer his two chief rivals ——the incumbent Mayor Fiorello “Lit- Me Flower” H. LaGuardia and Former lupreme Court Justice Jeremiah ‘Titus Mahoney, both New Dealers: A quick glance at the trio reveals sharply contrasting personalities.

He came in @s fusion meyor in 1933 to “clean house” after the debacle of Jimmy Walker's regime. MAHONEY—He's a Tammany man but outspoken foe of the present leadership.
