are Lewis Judson Jr., Salem ac
countant; W. Robert Masscy, coun
ty employe, and Ridgley Miller,
county veterans service officer.
Pat McCarthy. St. Paul, has field
as a Democratic candidate.
At the same time that Henry
Ahrens filed yesterday, his broth
er Eddie Ahrens announced he
would seek re-election to the State
Legislature.
Urgent Needs Listed
In announcing himself as a com
missioner candidate, Henry Ah
rens gave the opinion that some
of the most urgent needs in coun
ty government are: Closer co
operation with city of Salem in
working out an effective program
of development in residential sub
urbs u budgeting carefully to pre
vent any increase in the county
tax millage; assignment of each
of the three members of County
Court to a specialized field ef su
pervision and responsibility.
Henry Ahrens resigned from
State Fair Commission last April
during the Democratic adminis
tration's reorganization of many
agencies. He had served five years
on the commission ("during which
we accumulated a $200,000 State
Fair surplus") and before that bad
worked for State Fair some 20
years, in positions from messenger
to superintendent of admissions.
Pa reared Sheep
The Ahrens brothers have oper
ated their farms at Turner since
1929. specializing in purebred
Romney and Suffolk sheep. Both
have had prominence In regions!
and national sheep and wool asso
ciations. Eddie Ahrens is a former
president of American Romney
Breeders.
As neighbors to Salem, both also
have taken part in Salem com
munity affairs. Henry Ahrens was
a Salem Cherrians member for
many years and years ago had
played in the national champion
ship American Legion drum and
bugle corps from here. Eddie
Ahrens recently completed a three
year term on the Jialem Chamber
of Commerce board of directors.
Eddie Ahrens said Thursday be
ia still considering the possibility
of running for the Republican
state senate nomination from Mar
ion County, although it is more
likely he will ask re-election to
the House.
