 Ward committees of the republi. can party will meet next week to name new members of the town committee. Younger members of the party who have been fighting for increased representation on the committee for some time and their efforts finally met with success last night when the town committee agreed to addition of five members. This is the largest increase made nj many years at least in the town committee.
 As the second ward now has only two members on the town commit tee, it will be allowed to add three more. Each of the other two wards will add one. This will make the new town committee composed of five representatives from each ward and 1t was stipulated last night that at least one from each ward must be e woman, that Is at least three women will be on the repuh- lican town committee.
 The enlarged committee will meet on March 12. At present the cotn- mittee consists of Dr. H. II. Qorton, chairman; Miss Emily Sophie Brown, Walter Norwash and Charles P. Rodenbach, representing the first ward; Herbert Johnson and Seabury Hungerford, represent. ing the second ward; Samuel I. Ly- ons, Louis Schiller, Jr, Victor Pet- erson and Henry zwick, represent- ing the third ward.
 This means the third ward will have to name Q woman as It's new member and one of tho three new members from the second ward will have to be Q woman. AS the first ward is now represented by one woman, 1t is likely its new member will be Q man.
 1t is believed the Young Republi- can club will be well represented when the additions are made.
 This is really the first step in c plan for vigorous action in the re- publican party 50 that 1t might win the spring election. Leaders feel that new blood ct the helm will re- suit in more enthusiasm and pos- sibly victory.
 The were cheered by reports of opposition in the second ward to renomination of Warden John J. Sheridan which is being led by Pierce Y. Freeman, well known democrat.
 They feel that if Mir. Sheridan is not renominatd he rnoght run on an independent ticket and believe this would help their chances consider. ably.
