He did not set) the world afire with any brilliant statesmanship. He failed |of re-election Before that he held several political positions and after |that he was a deputy in the city treasurer's office. Becking ham always liked the political game. And he always had lots of friends. So The Star man naturally asked ingham: But your friends would try to take advantage of the situation? ‘ Beckingham, it seemed, “My friends’ must learn,” he said, the dollar ahead of me—or ahead of the mayor. If they! think more of the dollar than to let me make good on this| job, they are not my friends. “Ll want everybody to know that, as I take this office, ja new deal begins. THE PAST IS PAST.
