STATE HOUSE, SALEM, Ore. (UP)
Poltlcal strategy worked In behalf of
Joe E. Dunne to win the Republican
gubernatorial nomination was re
vealed today.
The "inside" story came Xrom
Henry Hanzen, political advisor to
Governor Meier and state budget di
rector. Hanzen frankly admitted that he
supported Dunne along with the
Meier administration during the clos
ing days of the primary election
campaign.
"X was not so much for any one
man as I was for the candidate who
could defeat Rufus Holman," Hanzen
told the United Press. His contempt
for Holman probably la exceeded
only by Governor Meier.
Had to Spread Word.
"The only thing that had to be
done was to get tbe word spread
that Dunne was In the lead and
would win the nomination. Once
this was achieved with the aid of
the Portland newspapers, the rest
was easy."
Hanzen said he attempted to get
U. G. Alexander and Lonergan to
spread the word that their campaign
would be successful. These candi
dates presumably refused to follow
the advice, or failed to carry It out
enthusiastically.
"The people did not know whom
to vote for ten daya before election,
except that they did not want to see
Holman nominated," Hanzen contin
ued. Holman "Stopper" Sought.
The administration stumbled about
for several weeks tn Its determined
effort to find the man who could
"stop Holman." Meanwhile the state
treasurer continued to issue state
ments which apparently lost him
larger numbers of votes.
Mc Alexander, 72-year-old retired
major general, wa&, selected.. When
It appeared that he might not be
ithe ultimate winner, support was
transferred to Dunne. Once this wasv
done, Hanzen mixed his political
medicine and it was administred on
an effective scale. Most political ob
servers are agreed that the move
ment to put Dunne across was timed
with exceptional finesse.
Dunne Good Campaigner.
Then, Dunne himself, Is a good
campaigner In his own right.
He Is popular with many factions
and knows how to get votes. It
has long been known that If anyone
had a bill he desired to have Intro
duced, the smiling, portly state sen
ator would present the measure.
Eight years In the state senate
have given Dunne a good following.
He has been In the dairy and Ice
cream, Insurance, restaurant and au
tomobile businesses. Much of his
legislative work has been devoted to
measures of Interest to the motorist
and the dairyman.
Dunne did a sound piece of per
sonal campaigning. He addressed
lettera to most restaurant owners
throughout the state. Many restau
rant workers urged customers to vote
"for my old friend, Joe Dunne."
He spent considerable time In far
mers' markets, and at dairy co-operatives.
Dunne Is easy to get ac
quainted with. He did not deal In
personalities.
Holman Unrepentant.
Holman believes the people were
"not informed properly" when they
failed to nominate him as the Re
publican candidate for governor. He
does not think the many statements
he made, considered useless and
costly by many observers, Injured his
chances.
One veteran state house official
commented after the election, "Hol
man Is the second man who has
talked himself out of almost certain
gubernatorial nomination in recent
years. W. A. Norblad did the same
thing. Holman had everything to
lose and nothing to gain In each
statement he made."
State house circles wonder which
department or departments the In
coming governor will use to pay off
political debts. The present admin
istration has selected the public util
ity department aa the principal
"lumping ground." Veteran politi
cians and campaign friends have
been given positions In that depart
ment In large numoers.
THE DALLES, Ore., May 34. (API
Wht Is described u an "acute
shortage of labor" exists In the Wasco
and Hood River idunty orchard and
Held districts.
Residents of the area are unable to
harvest the cherry and pea crops with
out assistance, and extremely few
transients have thus far arrived, . The
Dalles chamber of commerce yester
day asked Secretary of State Stadle
man to waive, temporarily, the ruling
requiring non-resldente to purchase
Oregon auto license plates. The pres
ent necessity of buying these tags la
believed to be keeping transient out
of the region.
