S. C. HUBER ENJOYS
TRAVEL, so HE is TO
BE U. S. ATTORNEY

Now Hawaii may know why s. C.
Huber of Tama, Iowa, wants to be
u. s. district attorney for Hawaii.
When the Star-Bulletin's Washington
correspondent cabled the tip that Hu.
ber had the inside track for the fed
eral job, everybody wanted to know
who Huber was and why he should be
chosen. The secret is told by the Star
Clipper, newspaper of the town of
Traer, Iowa Here is the Star-Clip.
per's explanation:
1T seems pretty well settled at this
date that S. G. Huber of Tama is to
get the appointment of district attor-
ney for Hawaii This is job he has
sought. as he enjoys travel and does
not need the money. A lot of others
sought it, too, but Mr. Huber's claims
and qualifications both were so for.
midable he was considered a likely
winner from the start We consider
the appointment one of the best the
democrats ever made in Iowa. Huber
is conscientious, high-minded and
broad-minded fellow, an able lawyer, a
perfect gentleman. He has in politi-
cal way earned the. job twice over.
With little or no hope of success he
has repeatedly made political fights
to uphold the party"
