...speaking terms-and the party's indebtedness continues to spiral upward. The sleek party house organ, Democratic Digest, continues to pile up a $70,000-$80,000 annual deficit; rental for the committee's commodious offices amounts to $2,820 per month, and the 80-man staff draws down some $440,000 in annual salaries. Butler maintains a $350-a-month Washington apartment on the expense account, and his marathon travels (averaging 1,000 miles per week) add to the burden (although Butler travels economically, rarely hosts dinners or parties...

Many city officials, including the mayor, are on the hospital staff. Ogdensburgers pay little attention when patients with downtown privileges wander through the stores.
