Nealon Is also reported as having his eye on the legislature, but Is mum on the sub ject. He dodges all queries relating to politics, and his future plans. If Nealon runs for the legislature, Henry Conger of Jacksonville, is expected, according to political gossip, to seek the commisslonershlp. Thomas Psn key of Central Point, who was de feated for the post at the last elec tion. Is mentioned aa a probable Democratic standard bearer for the place. State Senator George Dunn of Ash land is also expected to seek re-election. Senator Dunn has held the position for eight years, and is one of the legislative leaders. William N. ( Parmer Bill ) Carle, Applegate dairyman, hints that he might run for senator, if Senator Dunn does not seek re-election. Candidates have until April 3 to file with the county clerk.

"We have large numbers of families getting relief whose economic future is so discouraging that It seems en tirely improbable that they will ever be accommodated In Industry again," explained Hopkins. Some Areas Worked out "They are in communities where industry has been worked out, such aa In steel centers to some extent, copper and In some farming country where land Is so poor that no one could make a living on It." Hopkins named Detroit aa one city under consideration for a partial shifting of Its unemployed. Some of the men moved, he said, would be given work laMde the national forest.
