It was also learned that although the Congressman consulted a number of Democratic leaders In the assembly districts he has made little headway in gaining actual support In the Park Slope organization.

Workers of the district were in-cllned to regard the Congressman'! action as a filibuster intended to secure himself some sort of a post that wl keep him in politics rather than being dropped altogether by the county organization because of hU antl-admlnlstratlon acts. It is pointed out by the Park Slope Democrats that although times are hard In the way of patronage there is little grumbling pf a serious nature in their ranks that might lead to the belief the tvtemative would secure anv great amount of support.
