OPINION TEXT STARTS HERE
Appeal, by permission, from an order of the Appellate Division of the Supreme Court in the Second Judicial Department (242 App. Div. 803.275 N. Y. S. 660), entered October 30, 1934, which unanimously affirmed an order of Special Term denying a motion by petitioner for a peremptory order of mandamus to compel the board of elections of the city of New York to place the name of the appellant upon the official ballot for the general election to be held on November 6, 1934, as a candidate for the office of Representative in Congress. The board of elections refused to file the nominating petition for the reason that such petition did not specify the particular congressional district in which the petitioner was seeking office.
William H. Schreiber, of New York City, for appellant.
Paul Windels, Corp. Counsel, of New York City (Russell L. Tarbox, of New York City, of counsel), for respondents.
Order affirmed.
