Former Milwaukee Mayor Frank P. Zeidler, the last
Socialist to run a major U.S. city, has died, a
spokesman for a Milwaukee hospital said on Saturday.
Zeidler, 93, died on Friday of congestive heart
failure.
The son of a German Lutheran barber, Zeidler led
Milwaukee for three terms from 1948 to 1960 and also
ran for president as a Socialist in 1976.
