...even New York's City Hall cannot employ 20,000. Ideally, the mass of Democrats and independents who worked for Lindsay in '65, could be persuaded to change their registration. Price had a vision of dozens of Lindsay Republican Organizations mushrooming all over the city providing direct lines of communication between the neighborhood and City Hall.
