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had withdrawn after a "convention",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.

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. Work on these var
ious agricultural adjustment pro
jects has so far taken the time of
Mr. Holt that his regular program
of agricultural extension work has
been seriously retarded.
