...year-old Jelal Bayar, a hero of the 1923 revolution whose personal prestige is almost as great as Inönä's, the Democrats made a strong showing in urban centers. Pending official figures, Ankara dopesters expected the Democrats to get 50 to 100 seats. Bayar's followers chortled that Inonii himself, revered as the successor of the great Kamal Atatürk, ran sixth in a field of 17 candidates in the Ankara district...
