A boom to nominate Lieutenant Governor Herbert H. Lehman for the post of governor of the State of New York was started here yesterday, where Democratic chieftains are now gathered to choose the presidential candidate.
The Young Folks Democratic League of Kings County, New York, through its vice chairman, Sidney Kuntz, announced that the organization would back the Lieutenant Governor for the post.
The League has a membership of 9000 and is the first, Mr. Kuntz said, to indorse Lieutenant Governor Lehman’s candidacy.
