contained in an advertisement that
appeared in the New York Ga

"Pubic Notice is hereby given
that Nicholas Bayard Of the City
of New York, has erected Re
fining House for Refining all
sorts of sugar and sugar-candy,

an experienced artist in that

MARTIN A MEMBER OF
HOUSE AND WAYS
49, AND MEANS.

Washington, April 1O.-An am
bition long held by the Third
congressional district of Louisi-
ana was achieved today when its
representative i'll Congress sat
with the ways and means com
mittee Of the ways and means
committee Of the House Of Rep
resentatives. This is the commit
tee which mOlds the plans for
raising the revenues needed by
the nation. The Importance of
| this committee is greater today
than it has been at any time since
the Civil war. In fact, the coun-
try is facing the necessity of rails
ing more money than ever before
its history.
While it has been known since
the converting of this Congress
that Representative Martin was
slated for place on the ways and
means committee, the appointment
did not come until this morning.
Judge Martin sat with the com
mittee in one Of its regular SEES
sions today. While accredited to
the minority Of the committee,
Judge Martin maintains his
status as a progressive prOtec-
zionist. A member Of Congress,
commenting on the circumstances
surrounding Judge Martins as
signment to the most coveted .
committee berth in the House, said
to-day: "This is probably the
first time in the history Of Con
gress a member has voted with
one party in the organization of ].
.he House and still has been sup
ported for a committee assign
nent by the opposing party.
Judge Martin has so con-
luct,d himself here, however, in
he extremely difficult situation
attending to organization Of the
House that he has won the respect
nd friendship Of both parties.
While an ardent protectionist,
lie nevertheless felt that in the I
resent crisis the best interest of
he country would be served by
he selection of a Democratic I
peaker who would be in close
ouch both with the President and
he Democratic organization in
ontrol Of the Senate. Many Of
