Redmond and Bend
On his past record, the . con
serva tires will find few if any
. Tulnerable spots. 'Anyone propos

ability because of his , eastern
.Oregon residence, must leave out
of consideration his - early resi
dence in Marion county where he
spent much of his boyhood. He
was principal of a school at Sub
- limity before taking up the study
of. medicine, and the fact that he
.owns a conn try pi ace-in Linn
coanty, near Sdo, where tie now
spends much of his time.
i A practicing physician in De
sehutes county since 1910, Dr.
lloach s popularity in his home
community is evidenced by the
fact that he served as mayor of
Redmond successively for 1 4
"years; then, moving to Bend, was
mayor of that city for three years
prior to his election to the legis
lature. In the 1936 campaign, the
republicans had difficulty in find
ing anyone willing to oppose him.
'4n private life, Dr. Hosch is an
' "outdoor man." He "was for a
number of years, until well into
middle age, central Oregon tennis
c tampion and a competitor in
state tennis tournaments. Later
hf was one of Bend's most pro
ficient golfers. At the same time

During the World war Dr.
Hdsch served as a lieutenant in
the medical corps. He is 57 years
Id, a native of Milwaukee, Wis.
He graduated from the University
of Oregon medical school in 1905

AFL Will Oppose
Any NLRB Probe
MIAMI. Fla., Jan. 31-(jP-Offi-cials
of the American Federation
of Labor, which has accused the
national labor relations board of
showing partisanship to the com
mittee for industrial organization,
opposed today a proposed senate
investigation of the board.
They held an investigation
might be protracted to delay en
actment at this session of con
gress of an amendment to the
Wagner act which the AFL has
suggested, to Insure crafts within
an industry the right to elect
their own collective bargaining
representatives and to remove the
board's discretion In determining
the form of elections.
"Some who are opposed to the
AFL, some who believe that fed
eral agencies-' should be used to
reconstruct the American trade
movement, even some within ad
ministration circles have voiced
their objection to any amendment
of the Wagner act," said a state
ment by John P. Frey, president
of the AFL metal trades depart
ment." Robert H. Jackson
