MOSHER John H. McCooey stood pat with Mayor O'Brien today 1 in the face of further assurances that Joseph V. McKee will run independently with the backing of the Roosevelt Administration.

The situation in the McKee camp, however, was badly muddled by a number of things. In the first place, reports from Washington were to effect that strong pressure is being brought to bear on Mr. Roosevelt to stop short of an open declaration of support for McKee. The argument was put forth that for the President to interfere in the political mixup in New York City would be, in effect, to put the whole prestige of the Administration, the NRA and the rest of the recovery efforts in jeopardy, pending the outcome of the Mayoralty campaign.
