Mount Vernon. for Supreme Court Justice. II is
stated that nothing could be further from the
truth.
IL has been learned that while Mr.. Ward is on
good terms socially with Ex-Governor Odell. he
IS opposed 70 him politically. Ward. II is said
believes that Governor Higgins has kept his
pledges 20 the people. and that he should have q
denomination II he Will consent 10 take H.
Should Mr.. Ward retire chairman OF the
county committee. IL Will be for the reason as
stated by The Tribune that he needs more time
70 devote 20 his private business. Mr.. Wards
friends are not alarmed over his resignation a
chairman OF The county committee. because as
national and state committeeman they realize
that he VIII continue 10 be important factor
