DR. SMALL TONIGHT (Continued from Page One) about 100, which will be increased several fold within two or three weeks. It was decided to hold a meeting on Monday night of each week, when special programs will be rendered. A membership committee was chosen, comprised cf about ten leaders, and officers were elected as follows: President, David E. Smith; secretary, C. O. France, and treasurer Charles S. Niblick. o THEY MEET FRIDAY (Continued from nage 1.) would be not only unjustifiable, but the result of snap judgment. Republicans insist that the necessary votes for passage will be forthcoming and Democrats are equally insistent that they will not be forthcoming. The words of the managers do not carryconviction because of the manner of expression. Neither side is sure. Doubt seems uppermost in the minds of the managers of both parties. This is taken to indicate that promises have been withheld and that some promises are being questioned. o Fred Hoffman is at Winchester this week attending to business.
