Taking the stump for her own candidacy and her party's program, Martha Sharp, Democratic candidate for the House of Representatives running against minority leader Joe Martin, will address the Harvard Liberal Union in Phillips Brooks-House at 7:30 o'clock this evening.
A resident of Wellesley and mother of two children, Mrs. Sharp has been an active community leader in Red Cross and famine relief work for Europe. In running against Joe Martin she is taking on one of the most prominent and powerful Republican representatives in a district that is traditionally Republican.
Mrs. Sharp and Martin are both residents of the fourteenth Massachusetts Congressional District, and area running roughly from Fall River to Wellesley. In the event that the Republicans win a majority in the House this fall Martin will become the speaker, this increasing the significance of the contest.
