MARTIN RETAINED AS PARTY CHAIRMAN Defeats S. Van Brown As Head Of the Republican State Committee General Edward Martin, of Washing. ton county, was re-elected chairman of the Republican State Committee in the biennial meeting held last week, de- feating S. Van Brown of Williamsport, by a vote of 77 to 37. The election of a chairman settled the question of party control in the State for two years at least. A battle that was regarded as close as the rival factional leaders counted EDWARD MARTIN | i noses Friday night developed the bal- loting got under way before a crowd that packed every inch of the ball- room in the Bellevue-Stratford, where the meeting was held. Tension thatgripped the sweltering crowd was quickly relieved with the re-election of Martin. The remainder of the programme agreed upon by the group in control was quickly ratified without any op- position. Mrs. Sarah S. Etter, of Harrisburg, was elected vice chairman, succeeding Mrs. Gertrude Franz Stauffer, of Lau- caster, who declined to be a candidate for another term. Secretary of Finances Charles John- son and Miss Nancy P. Highley both of Montgomery county, were re-elected secretary and assistant secretary, re- spectively. Sheriff Thomas W. Cunningham, of Philadelphia, was re-elected treasurer. Just as the meeting adjorned, Gen- eral Martin announced the appoint- ment of A. Boyd Hamilton, of Harris- burg for another term as assistant to the chairman. Hamilton is secretary of the State Senate.

CONCERNING PLAGUE OF OUR INDIFFERENCE Dr. Appel Says Science Alone Cannot Fight the Ills That Beset Humankind. “The newspaper have been carrying acounts of the plague of locusts which at the present time is infesting the land of Egypt. And there are two in- teresting facts connected with it. 1st, the world of nature is not given to high speed changes; and second, the resourcefulness of man, on the other hand, has developed an amazing in- genuity. St it comes to pass that while, there have been recurrent plagues of locusts in Egypt since Bibilical days, present day methods of fighting them with barriers, ditches and gasoline are incomparably superior to the old of- fensive which was limited to prayers alone.And this situation may be log- ically compared to the human body,” said Doctor Theodore B. Appel, Secre- tary of Health. “Smallpox diptheria, typhoid fever and other contagious diseases, while still sporadically plaguing the human race, have been rendered much less dangerous, and in some instances pra- ctically impotent, by scientific counter- attacks. The rapid advance in bacter- iological and medical science has seen to that. “And while it is quite true that this happy situation obtains, it is also pain- fully a fact that a major plague still exists, against which science has as vet made insufficient headway. It is the plague of indifference. “This modern age relying rightly but entirely too much, upon the la- boratory to fight its battles, generates a foolish indigenence to its own health welfare. This results in a near-crimi- nal disregard of the lawsof right liv- ing on the part of many people with the consequences being indicated in half-alive bodies the individual has more or less personal supervision. “It follow that science alone can not National FORD TRUCK WEEK June 9 to 14 Examine the | Ford Truck in detail IN BOTH chassis and bodies, you will see important new features that increase the strength, reliability, economy and value of all Ford truck types.
