To the Editor: I would like to point out one factor In this Demo cratic primary which has been more or less stressed, but so far ai I know, never set forth alone. That factor la the RECORD. In Governor Martin we have a can didate whose record from youth Is an open book. Forty-five years of dis tinguished and honored service In the army, four years In congress and four years as governor. So does It matter whether he has differed with Madam Perkins and the National Labor Re lations Board f s What we want Is a governor who has a known record of honesty, In tegrity, ability and unwavering devo tion to hla duty. What can his op ponents show In comparison? Vote on the RECORD. GORDON VOORHIE8. May 18, 1938. Write In Wagoner. To the Editor: Last Sunday after noon at the Townsend club No. 2 hall on West Main street, wt had the pleasure of listening to a genu ine Townsend address by Clara nee R. Wagoner of Portland, Ore., candi date on the Republican ticket for governor, subject to the vote of the people at the primary. May 30. While I am speaking for myself, I am thoroughly convinced he Is the man th.it all Townsend people should sup port, regardless of politics. Demo crats can write hla name In. P. J. KIRKPA TRICK, Star Rout Box 57. Medford, Ore., May 18, 1938. Lets Do It. To the Editor: The most vital Issue of the state campaign seems to be whether Frank lin D. said to Charley Iron Pants "We make a good pair.'" So I move that the election, be postponed till we find out for sure and whether he meant a pair of kings or a pair of deuces. R. E. NEALON. Central Point, May 18th.

PERRY Republican Candidate for County Commissioner For Jackson County On Writing In To the Editor: Will you please print the attached article which appeared In the Ash land Tidings of May 18? Thank you H. S. DEUEL. In the enthusiasm of last-minute political battles many things happen which are not reasonable, orthodox, or even fair. In the current battle between Governor Martin and Henry L. Hess, for the Democratic gubernatorial nomination, the former apparently carrying the disapproval of leading Washington administration leaders and the latter apparently carrying the banner and approval of the same certain Washington administration leaders, such a situation has de veloped. The extreme Martln-for-Governor enthusiasts are running wild, with the very unorthodox, meaningless and unnecessary appeal that Repub licans write In the name of Governor Martin on the Republican ticket for governor. In the first place voters must- re member that Oregon has two politi cal parties. Democratic and Republl can, and that In the course of events Governor Martin affiliated with the Democratic party and is now seeking renomlnatlon on the Democratic ticket. An lnter-party squabble has developed, which must and has to be settled by the Democrats. It It true that Republicans can wrltft In the name of Governor Mar tin on the Republican ticket as their choice for the Republican nominee for governor, which the Martln-for-governor enthusiasts are asking Republicans to do, but Re publicans must remember that on the Republican ticket there are ex cellent candidates for the Republi can gubernatorial nomination and that their writing In the name of Governor Martin on the Republican ticket Is about as foolish and use less an act as on could conceive, for such votes cannot and are not counted In the Democratic contest and are absolutely useless unless Governor Martin should receive more votes on the Republican ticket than any of the many regular Republican candidates for (his nomination. Can you possibly conceive of Gov ernor Martin's name being written In on the Republican ticket more times than that of Arthur Sprague, for Instance, regular Republican can didate, and apparently the leading candidate for the Republican guber natorial nomination? Of course you cannot conceive of such an outcome, so why waste your vote in the primary, Republican voters! Do not be misled by this propa ganda. Republican voters, and there by lose the effectiveness of your franchise right to choose your party nominee. Vote for your choice among the regular Republican candidates for the primary nomination for gov ernor. This applies also to Democrats In exercising their franchise to se lect their own party nominee. Then this fall, Mr. and Mrs. Re publican, when you have a right to vote, with the knowledge that your vote will actually count, for any gubernatorial candidate, whether Democratic or Republican, with the chance of having your vote aotually amount to something, vote for either Democrat or Republican nominee, as your conscience dictates. The Dally Tidings does not hesi tate one moment to suggest and advise, as it did In this column Tuesday, that Democrats should by all means, support Governor Martin for the Democratic nomination for governor, in order to defeat the ef fort of Washington political leaden to control and dictate Oregon gov ernment and politics.

Alio supported and recom mended by legislative represen tatives of all organized labor, 21 standard railroad brother hoods, prominent leaders of State Orange. By NATIONAL ADMINISTRATION and STATE LEADERS for GOVERNOR PRESIDENT ROOSEVELT .... In his recent "surprise" statement denounced the flagrant attempt of Governor Martin to deceive the people Into believing that the National Adminis tration was supporting him. ' TJ. S. SENATOR, OEO. W. NORRIS, . , . whom the President calls "the Major Prophet of Amer ican Public Life," branded Governor Martin aa a "Reaction ary" and said "The Interests of the farmers of Oregon, lie' In the success of HENRY HESS." HON HAROLD L. ICKES, the President's own Cabinet member Sao. of Interior, writes; My dear Senator Hess: , , . Ton are as Important champion In the etat senate f Oregon for the adoption of . . . legislation to give people of Oregon new cheap electrlo power, being made available through tha help of the Federal government. Governor Martin . on the contrary vetoed such legislation. . . . the standing army and the war chest of the forces of reaction are today largely utility companies. ... To me as U anyone who has for a long time fought In the political battles for progressive principles, the test of one who purports to be progressive Is his stand on the right of a democratic people to. have public power If they want pnblle power and to determine the way they want to ne pnblle power.
