Although closely contested by the mildly leftist Social Democrat Party, the church-supported CSU,— a post-war hodge-podge of Liber- als, Moderates and Reactionaries— repeated its performance of two |pxevmus elections when it won the overwhelming support of rural workers throughout the zone. The Communist Party, which had expected to make at least a fair !showing in war-ravaged industrial | centers, took a bad beating, win- ning only 47 of 1,025 seats in city councils.
