SALEM Now that it seems to be
pretty definitely settled that Gov
ernor Martin will seek a second term
interest in Oregon politics naturally
shifts from that quarter to a specu
lation on his possible opponents, both
in the primary and general election.
For while the governor himself has
not yet openly declared his inten
tions the announcement that he will
run has come from a source too
close to the administration to be ig
nored. Furthermore, the governor's
changed attitude toward a number
of controversial issues can be taken
as straws pointing in the general di
rection of another term.
It being generally admitted that
the governor's most difficult hurdle
lies in the Democratic primaries the
question arises as to who will be the
standard-bearer of the anti-administration
Democrats in the pending
battle. Will it be Howard Latoufette
of Multnomah county, present Dem-

in that connection. Both Latourette
and Hoesch are known to be not
only willing but anxious to replace
Martin in the executive office.
Friends of Hoesch have been es
pecially busy the past few weeks
grooming him for the race and it is
said that he would be acceptable to
organized labor, the Townsendites,
the grangers and other large groups
whose support Martin is supposed
to have alienated through his an
tagonistic attitude earlier in his ad
ministration. While few Republicans can be
found who are anxious to try con
clusions with Martin in the gen
eral election there are a number
who are known to be ambitious to sit
in the seats of the mighty and who
are carefully considering the possi
bility that Martin may not make the
grade in the Democratic primary.
So far, however, no one has found
the courage to come out into the
open with a public declaration and
that field is still fertile ground for
speculation. Will the Republican
candidate be State Treasurer Hol
man who failed of his goal four
year's ago only through a last min
ute consolidation of his' opposition
within his own party; or Secretary
of State Snell who. was prominently
mentioned for the position of party
leader four years ago and is still
regarded by many as the party's
best bet for the governorship; or
Dean Walker of Polk county who
distinguished himself as chairman
of the senate ways and means com
mittee in the last two legislative
sessions; or some one of the dozen
or more other possibilities who are
said to be weighing their chances
very seriously as the zero hour for
the primary campaign approaches.
All of which, of course, leaves the
entire situation still very much un
settled but provides a few morsels of
political gossip on which to chew
until more substantial material is
nrovided bv positive declaration
when the candidates begin to com'
mit themselves.

ratio of increase at 534 percent. The
average for the state as a whole was
22 percent

crack down a little harder on traffic
law violators. With 153 revocations
and suspensions imposed by courts
during July a new all-time high

Secretary of State Snell. For the
seven months to August 1 a total of
465 operators had their licenses re
