Wisconsin Towns Assn Signs Peak but Fears Rival Group
The Wisconsin Towns Association reports record 1 007 member town boards with 1 276 total towns in the state. Ben Hanneman warns of a rebel faction led by Hermann Eisner and Frank Meyer aiming to split the group. An upcoming executive council session in Wisconsin Rapids on July 21 precedes the Spooner convention September 21–22 to set the 1957 legislative program. The association plans a push for higher state subsidies for town roads, seeking about 340 dollars per mile, up from the current 205.

Wayne J. Hood, La Crosse business executive and GOP organizer, will be campaign manager for Rep. Glenn R. Davis in the bid against Sen. Alexander Wiley.
