===== -oh Hermistun Heraln ===== . 1........ == === VOLUME XXVIII NUMBER 32 “ **** *** ** * * CITY ALLOWED 24-HOUR FLOW f OFFICE OF GOVERNOR STAMPEDE IN POLITICAL RACE. Hot Fight Looms for Republican Nomination for Governor With Seven Men In Running. E. P. Dodd of Hermiston has filed for governor in the republican pri- maries, making a total of seven out for this nomination. Mr. Dodd had announced last week that he Intended to file for the office on a river program and as the closing time for filing drew near he became more enthused as friends urged him to enter the race. Total filings for all offices were renorted as follows: Republican, 198; democrats, 130; non-partisans, 38. The Dodd candidacy for governor had been expected unless one of the existing candidates picked up, in a manner vigorous enough to satisfy him, his favorite plank of Columbia river development. His entry was not quite as dramatic as the suddea entry o Cenerai U. O. MacAlex- ander of Newport into the same battle, but it was later chronolog ically. This gives the republicans a field of seven from which to select their gubernatorial nominee. Rufus C. Holman, Joe E. Dunne, Frank J. Lonergan, all of Portland; Charles Hall, Oswego: Sam H. Brown, Ger vais: Mr. Dodd. Hermiston, and Cenerai MacAlexander, Newport. Previously, W. E. Burke of Yamhill had withdrawn after a "convention", nomination. The democrats have a two-man choice. General Charles H. Martin, incumbent congressional representa tive who announced several months ago, and Willis E. Mahoney, young mayor of Klamath Faile.

DORN DIES SUDDENLY * COUNTY AGENT'S OFFICE AT ECHO FARM WEDNESDAY With the dairy plan having con- siderable application to Umatilla county and because of the conges tion in the office of County Agent Walter A. Holt, county Agent F. L. Ballard of Corvallis requested an additional cooperation from the Ag- ricultural Adjustment Administra- tion and as a result Mr. Noland A. Jacobsen has been assigned without cost to the county or state. Mr. Jacobsen will be available to assist Mr. Holt for at least three months and perhaps for a six or nine months period. In the immediate future the Ag- ricultural Adjustment Administra- tion will release a dairy control program more extensive so far as number of farmers reached than any of the several control programs de veloped up to this time. The wheat control program work was of major interest in Umatilla county and the hog program is of more interest than was at first ex pected with more contracts signed up at this time.
