The city's mayor had worked for the bus company and was a powerful advocate of public transport.
The key feature in the mayor's style of resource mobilization was episodic and perhaps even ad hoc.
In 1946 about two-thirds of the municipalities replaced the mayor elected in 1938.
In practice, therefore, only a few households can provide the mayor.
Crucially enough, although discharging important official duties, the mayor was paid no salary by the government.
The mayors' offices, which were the distribution centres at the local level, were not designed as high-security institutions.
The alert mayor was particularly adept at locating a variety of political resources and mobilizing them to gain influence.
Those who had only recently been mayors or public officials or labour activists were of course included.
