New York head of GOP assailed
New York (UP) –
Democratic National Chairman Robert E. Hannegan today accused New York State Republican Chairman Edwin F.

Mr. Hannegan said that Rep. Joseph Mruk (R-Buffalo) had been refused endorsement for reelection by Mr. Jaeckle because, according to Mr. Mruk, he was a Catholic and of Polish ancestry.
