He defeated youthful Max Denney, Fairbury city attorney on the second ballot of the vot ting to choose a successor to A. T. Howard, of Scottsbluff, who resigned because of illness. Martin's victory caught ob servers by surprise and was made possible by the sudden withdrawal of Joseph Wishart, Lincoln, 'the party treasurer. Wishart, widely-heralded as a compromise candidate should either Martin or Denney fail to muster a majority, confounded observers when he scratched his name after polling 12 votes on the first ballot to 25 for Mar tin and 29 for Denney. The stage seemed set for Wis hart's forces to put on the pres sure and push their man thru, just as Howard had been "com promised" into the chairman guests of Mr. and Mrs. Boyd Mayfield. The Mayfields and their guests were in Omaha on Wednesday and Dr. and Mrs. Hemingway left from there for their home.

Mrs. Russ Schaefer gave a fine report of the Welfare meeting at Elm wood. The Auxiliary has sent in their Gift Shop assignment to the Veterans Hospital a Lin coln.

One of the guests was Mrs. Ermond Moore and baby daughter of Maryland. It was great fun for "Grandma Snod grass" to present her grand daughter to the ladles present.

At the close of the afternoon the hostesses, Mrs. Charles Meredith and Mrs. George Poulos served very de licious -refreshments.

Miss Ruth Ann Sporer spent the week end with her parents in Murray. Only three days of school this week. Thanksgiving. Good news for the teachers and pu pils. Also the cook. ship from a poor third on the! ' first ballot in 1942. j J But Wishart, thru Paul Kru- ger, committeeman from Fort ' s Calhoun, asked that the race be narrowed to Denney and Martin. , The next ballot was all it took. There were two plausible ex planations as to what happened: 1. Some onlookers believed that the 12 votes Wishart com manded on the first ballot really weren't votes at all, but rather mere tokens of appreciation for Wishart's lengthy service to the party. These persons said Wis hart knew he didn't have these votes on the second ballot, so he withdrew. 2. Other observers believed that Wishart didn't want to risk the humiliation of another de feat like the one he suffered seven years ago. In a press conference follow ing his election, Martin said he planned a visit to all Nebraska counties soon after the first of the year, to "stimulate interest in Republicanism." Mrs. Eve Bowring, of Merri man, who resigned as vice chair man to give the new chairman a free hand in choosing a vice chairman, was re-named imme diately by Martin. LINCOLN. Nebraska's farm income this year will drop be low a billion dollars for the first time since the peak set in 1947, when the state realized $1, 088,350,000. That's the opinion of a man who should know Ru fus M. Howard, capable direc tor of the state agricultural de partment. Howard says farm income this year probably will fall to $920, 893,000, about 10 per cent under the 1948 figure. Farm receipts for the first nine months of this year amounted to $tB2,38b,uuu, he said. This is about 8 per cent below the same period last year. (Continued on Page Six) LEGAL NOTICES LLUALi KG i ice SMITH & LEBENS, ATTORNEYS In the District Court of Cass County, Nebraska Charles J.
