institutions at home, the forces
which make a community strong in
the American manner.

Tuesday’ s Election Quiet
Hipple D Defeats Groff R

The Republicans marched to vie- f
tory Tuesday with about the same
ease as those Russians are traveling
toward Hitlerland, gaining a sweep- |
ing victory in Lancaster county and |
retaining control of the Court House |
office by a majority of 15,500 votes. |
Of course there was very little in-
terest and comparatively few con-
tests—in reality nothing to get ex-
cited about.
The only real county contest was
on the Democratic ticket, between
Fred W. Wagner, Columbia, who
was reclected as minority county
commissioner, defeating Leo Houck
by a majority of 311.
G. Graybill Diehm, chairman of |
the Republican County Committee
and president of the Board of Coun-
ty Commissioners, was elected to a

fifth term as County Commissioner, |
with 23,068 votes. County Surveyor
Harry H. Koser, of Landisville was
re-elected for the “squinteenth”
time. He has held that office for
many years.
