Auditor-elect W. B. Howard, will leave
next week for New York City to attend
a meeting of tho executlvo commltteo of
the National Association of insurance
Commissioners on December 2. Mr. Bar

matters pending at this tlmp an effort
will be made to have Mr. Howard ap
pointed to fill the vacancy on the ex
ecutlvo committee which will result when
the present auditor turns over to his suc
cessor tho keys to his office In January.
Because of Mr. Howard's knowledge of
Insurance matters generally it is thought
that the effort to keep Nebraska on tho
executive committee will probably bear
fruit. Tho executlvo committee has a
large in shaping the work of tho asso

Another conference relating to physical

The application of - the city of McCook
