HARMON

cratic Executive Committee
For The Democratic NOmina-

Congressman Sharpe Recon-
mendcd For Governor
Frank J. Meade And Robert
B. Armstrong Recommended
For Members Of The County
Board Of Elections

There was an important meeting of
the Knox County Democratic execu-
tive committee Saturday afternoon.
The meeting was called primarily to
recommend for appointment two mem
bers of the Knox county board of depu.
ty state supervisors of elections. The
committee attended to this duty and
also adopted with much enthusiasm
resolutions strongly endorsing Gov.
Harmon for the nomination for presi-
dent, at the same time condemning,
in the most emphatic language, the
action of the band of disappointed
office seekers, who, behind mask
Of Progressive Democrats" are fight
ing the governor
The committee also adopted reso-
luton recommending Congressman
Sharp for the govcrnorship
1t was perhaps the most largely at
tended meeting of the Democratic ex
ecutive committee ever held, at least
for several years. OF the forty men,
bers of the committee all were present
except six. This Is rather remarkable
when 1t is taken into account that the
membership is scattered all over the
county.
h The vacancies on the election board
were due to the fact that Lloyd NJ.
Bell is a candidate for the nomination
for county treasurer and John Gun
ningham is candidate for the nomina-
tion for state senator.
By ballot, the committee recon-
mended Frank ]. Meade to succeed Mr.
Bell and Robert b. Armstrong to sue
ceed Mr.. Cunningham. There was
one other name presented the commit
tee, that of Austin Carpenter of
Wayne township, but the vote for Mr.
Meade and Mr.. Armstrong was prac-
tically unanimous.
Following the above action of the
committee, Judge Frank o. lowering
presented the following resolutions,
which were received with demonstra-
tions of approval as their reading pro-
gfessed and were adopted as the sense
of the committee, which unquestion-
ably reflects the view on the subject
of the Democrats of Knox county:
