DEMOCRATIC PARTY FAGTIONS T0 HAVE TEST OF STRENGTH (Contiflued from First Page) made in view of the possibility that the personnel may be greatly chang- ed, and that the sclection of the present group might not meet the approval of the new. Caused chiefly by dissatisfaction with the methods of the town com- miftee, members of the party or- ganized the Smith-Robinson club last | September, installing younger dem- | ocrats in office. An effort at re- organization, with offices for older men in the party and with control vested in the town committee, failed after a hard fight in the party's headquarters, but a compromise was reached through which the town committee was authorized to finance the campaign, and the club con- duct it. Younger Element Dissatisfied At a later meeting, called for th of ironing out party diffi- s, the younger group frankly sed its dissatistaction with the profe failure of the committee to adopt rules and come nefore the party for election to office, and it was then promised that both matters would Le atteaded to. Last night's meet- fng was a fulfillment of the promise made at that time. The town committee fixed March 22 at 9 p. m. as the time limit for fillng petitions of candidacy for places on the town committee, kchool board, constable, mon council. Petitions were signed in the pres- ence of a member of the town com- mittee and presented either to Law- rence P. Mangan or Thomas J. &mith.
