Joe Wallace
County Commissioner

County Commissioner Joe Wal-
lace is another who is proud to be
a farmer. He~does not have to
be one and therefore he enjoys
that line OF business and likes to
be called farmer Wallace all the
more and just as much as he did
when the handle Of contractor
was placed at the front OF his
name. No, he does not necessar-
lily have to be farmer, He is q
contractor and ii he chose could
be one again.
This new title Of county COM
missioner has been given him the
past year and will go with him for
| at least another three years. Mr..
Wallace was elected county COM
missioner to represent not only
the people Of his district but OF
the entire county and very well
indeed is he doing It. There are
times when he is taken to task
along with Mr.. Gull and Mr.. Phil

THAT people are most interested in.

from West Virginia. He was in
the general contracting business
before he took up the business oi

ful at one as at the other and is
prospecting on his ranch which is
located about mile and hall
from Sugar City. He raises prin-
cipally sugar beets and alfalfa and
during the FIVE years he has been
farming he has demonstrated that
he can produce as much Of either
crop as the next fellow.
Mr.. Wallace does not claim te
be a politician and the Office he

Gates Of free speech, who have recit-
ed their grievances against Tarry-
town because Of the refusal of the
board Of trustees to grant permits
for public street gatherings, for the
first time were forced to listen to
the grievances Tarrytown holds
against them.
President Pierson told Upton Sin

titioners for permits to hold street
meetings that T~arrytown's chief
grievance was that the village had
been referred to by them as John ID.

Pierson declared u~nfounded, as Mr..
Rockefeller has no interests in the

1t was explained that the streets OF
