 There was contest over this nomination with Merritt Walter of Prospect staging a fight to land the county commissionership, but Wal ters is said to be out of the running and that Dr Gorton will have the backing of the caucus.

 Professor Ward Speaks at
 Forum
 A complete change in the meth- othds of doing business so that pro- duction and consumption would balance and the maintainance Of a maximum wage scale as a means Of avoiding depressions was expressed by Professor Harry F. Ward, nation- ally known Christian Economist Of Union Theological Seminary, New York in a forum talk given last night in the Methodist Episcopal church.
 The present business depression was bound to come in the opinion of the speaker due to the present day methods of business. Yet the speaker declared many were unable to forsee the conditions: 1T the American people have the inteill7 gence and will power and desire to change their system of doing bus mess so that production will more equally balance consumption. they will have answered the challenge of unemployment. One of the big causes for the present conditions was the reaching out of the greedy for more gains, blind to the condl- tions that were to inevitably 1ol- low. The inability to see far ahead brought on the unemployment sit nation so suddenly that we are un- able to handle it. relief measures were slow in getting under way and we are now facing exhaustion of the early relief funds and no fur- ther relief is in sight.
 Big business is constantly reacn- out for more and more prohts ana gain and in his opinion some check should be placed on their earning powers. The people must come back to a sound basis before conditions will be lighted.
