BROOKLYN NEWS

Members of four Republican or- ganlzations in the Brooklyn section will meet at the Brooklyn Y. M. c. A. next Wednesday night, the 20th, to nominate @ candidate for mem- bership on the Republican town committee. Notice of the date of the meeting has been sent to the organi- zatlons by Michael J'Anthony, sec- retary of the Republican town com nittee.
 A few days ago there was talk of a primary in the voting districts in- Volved, but this was decided against in favor of caucus of members of the four groups. Tho clubs to meet are the Brooklyn Republican club, Third and Fourth Ward Republican club, Young Mems Italian Republi- can club and the Lithuanian Repub- lican club.
 The town committee vacancy was caused by the election Of MT. JAn- thony. who formerly served as town committeeman from that section, as secretary.
 The Brooklyn and Town Plot club and the Third and Fourth Ward club have been at odds for some time and efforts to arrange a peace agreement were begun several weeks ago. Each club wanted the appoint- ment of the new town committee man. Then the two other organiza- tions entered their claims, and a general meeting of the membership of the four clubs was decided upon by the party leadership.

He or- dered the composer Into his pres- enee and not only forgave him but bestowed on him 0 pension of 200 pounds. This evenings Pops" con- cert will feature six numbers se- lected from the Suite, as played by Leopold Stokowski and the Phia. eelphia orchestra.
