MARTIN WILL NOT
SPEAK At AMHERST
Denial is Made Of Report, Which Was
Not Credited.

Announcement is made that Senator
Thomas 5. Martin will not open his
campaign at Amherst C. II. on Aug.
IL. as was stated in the press. Ii was
further said that Senator Martin Will
not do anything in the matter Of prose
cutting his campaign until after Con
gress has adjourned.
As matter of fact. the statement
that Senator Martin had made an en-
gagement to speak was not credited By
any one who is familiar with the pollt-
icaI situation. II was quite evident to
all who have been keeping up with the
march Of events that there had been d
misunderstanding on the part Of the
newspaper at Amherst which made the
announcement.
The senior senator has persistently
declined during the past few months TO
make any engagement whatever for
public speaking, in view of the uncer-
tainty regarding the date for the adj
jOurnment of Congress.
As to Senator Swanson, it Is also
known that he has no engagements.
His health is not at all satisfactory. and
it is certain that not only will he de-
cline to enter the campaign so long as
his duties detain him in Washington.

will permit him to make speech at
