The following clipped from last
Saturday's Oregon Voter, presents so
clearly the need for straight republi­
can thinking prior to'the primaries
and right-voting on that May 20 date
that the Sentinel reprints it as a
warning of what might Ijappen to cre­

citizens who wiU vote for Governor
Martin, but also shrewd partisan
groups who are espousing his re­
election and working for it vigorous­
ly. These are inoculating republicans
with the idea that if they are for Mar­
tin they are privileged to write his
name in the blank space on the re-
publican ballot. Hundreds of
publicans have been misled by this,
and in their loyalty to Governor Mar­
tin as an cxp°nent of good govern­
ment they indicate their present in­
tent to write in his name instead of
marking their “x" in front of the
printed name of any republican can­
didate. By so doing they are depriv­
ing the one conservative republican
of votes which might nominate him.
Another shrewd policy being pur­
sued by leading democrats who are
supporting Martin is to encourage
susceptible republicans to vote for
Sam Brown on the theory that the
sure way to re-elect Martin is to nom­
inate a weak republican to run
against him in November.
The
friendliest kind of a sympathetic feel­
ing for Brown is found in the Martin
camp. It is clever politics, and un-
less met by republican thinking it will
have a considerable effect on ths
outcome of the republican primaries.
The danger is that if Martin is
beaten in his own party, these
clever tactics of his "managing parti­
sans will result in Brown being the
republican nominee against Hess in­
stead of against Martin. In which
event, the confused public would be
compelled to vote for one of these

constitutes him a virtual dictator over

Governor Martin's special commit­
tee on probation, parole and sentenc­
ing of prisoners, meeting here this
week, recommended that work camps
be established for the employment
of trusties and parolees in forestry,
conservation and other public works
projects.
Men employed in these
camps would be paid a small compen­
sation “to enable them to make a start
when released into society.”
Only one-third of the checks being
