CHICAGO VOTERS ELEGTING MAYOR Thompson and Cermak Camps Each Predict Victory at Polls Today. (Continued From First Page.) watchers of the voters’ Non-partisan League were stationed at various polling places. “Big Bill,” sometimes referred to as Chicago’: owboy mayor” and regarded as a master showman of American poli- tics, sald it was his last campaign, regardless of whether he is elected as the world’s fair mayor. Some of the leaders of his party, including former Senator Charles S. Deneen, failed to come out openly for him, but despite this the mayor claimed the results would show that they had supported him rather than take chances on a Democratic victory. Carrying their fight right up to the last minute, the supporters of both can- / for Distance per Gallon EVER‘I Athlete knows that he'll get 8 longer ball down the fairways or a faster one over the plate, or a sizzling serve— with follow-thru. \What every motorist should know is that Benzol-blend Bethos didates gave downtown Chicago the at- mosphere of a political holiday. Some of the final were delivered by Cermak and Thompson, speaking in downtown theaters within a half block of each other, voice-amplifying devices helping to fill the air with charges, counter charges, ridicule and election promises, Banners Torn From Truck. While this was going on a truck carrying “canned” music and speeches for Thompson moved into the crowd in front of Cermak’s meeting place. Within a few moments Cermak partisans ripped ‘Thompson vanners from the side of the vehicle and pushed it into another street. The incident was taken good- naturedly by both sides, however, and there was no disorder. If Thompson is elected it will be his fourth term as mayor. He rode through a tornado of political fireworks in the February 24 primary with a plurality of 67,841 over Judge John H. Lyle, the self-styled “‘gangster nemesis,” and Al- derman A, F. Albert. 2 Albert drew approximately 100,000 votes. Opponents of Thompson argued that Albert’s strength made Thompson'’s nomination possible. Cermak had no organized opposition in the primary. In addition to picking a mayor, Chi- cagoans were ‘selecting aldermen in 21 wards. Richard Fishman, a Democratic pre- cinct captain in the twentieth ward, reported he had been kidnaped by two men last night. He was later released. thiru IVE BEEN WORRIED LATELY AND | DONT GET ANY SLEEP. ) FEEL TERRIBLE, & Sloan’s Liniment helps you sleep by bringing blood down from brain.
