LANSING. Dee. 21.-Unless

Gov.-elect Murray d. Van Wagner
will name youthful. handsome
David NJ. Martin of Flint as chair
man of the state labor and industry
board.
Martin, who made lasting i'm
preston on Democratic bigwigs
with ms quiet, efficient ways as
state senator during the last Legis-
lature, is popular at home, where
he owns general insurance
agency. He served on five commit
tees, including labor.
Although his previous political
experience consisted of, but one
term as state representative during
the 1887 session, he caught on fast.
He was slated to oppose Harry F.
Kelly for secretary of state, but
Democratic leaders capitulated TO
wishes of national leaders in
Washington, who insisted Leo V.
Card could get more votes because
of his popularity among farmers.
Politically ambitious, Martin
would like TO represent his district
in Congress. and. will undoubtedly
become a candidate in the 1912
campaign.
He will replace James F. Shep-
herd of Cheboygan, who was APP
pointed chairman of labor and
