V PAGE TEN The OREGON STATESMAN, Salem, Oregon, 8onday Morning, June 11, 1933 ilv EXTRASESSION If Sales tax' Beaten, State Will Face Problem of Funds for Needy (Continued from; page 1) existing roads and retirement of $27,000,000 in outstanding bonds necessitates. - This week will see two guber natorial candidacies blossom. Charles M. Thomas, utilities com missioner, has revamped and ex panded his political address, started before the legislature's utility committees ; and subse quently delivered at Klamath Falls and Tillamook. The new ma jor effortJsto be unleashed at the public auditorium in Portland Tuesday night, -the same auditor ium where the Joseph rump con vention was held. The coterie of anti-utility Portland clubs are os tensibly backing the meeting and It can be safely predicted that Thomas will disport himself at length on the entire utility situa tion which is to be his rally point for the 1934 campaign. Thomas will not announce himself as yet; he is too astute. But he is laying his plans and getting his adver tising while his present job is se cure. Governor Meier apparently is doing nothing to stem the Thom as tide. Warwick Hanzen recent ly returned from a post-legislative vacation in Idaho -has not indi cated whether he is pushing on the candidacy of his Medford pro tege or merely countenancing his preliminary workout for the 1934 race. Hanzen presumably is still a Meier-in-'34 man but he' "would not be adverse to having another horse to campaign on if the in cumbent decides not to run again. The speech of the utilities com missioner will be followed hard by the self-made keynote address of Rufus C. Hoi man who has la bored for weeks for his own ma jor effort before the state gran gers at Pendleton. Thomas is the bandstander on the utilities issue but Holman will doubtless declare himself an original anti-utility man. He will warm up his speech, presumably, by flaying the gover nor who appointed him and by re nouncing his entire connection with Meier. Tidbits of statehouse procedure which do not please Holman are to be worked in and all in all, the state treasurer is , ready to push off in grand style on the forthcoming campaign. Hal E. Hoss remains at The Dalles hospital where he is under observation. No one can speak positively whether Mr. Hos& will be there for an Indefinite period or will return to Salem.
