HIRAM JOHNSON
IS IN POLITICAL
FIGHT FOR LIFE
Takes Off Coat and Assumes
Role of California
Leader.

BIZ times Special
SAN FRANCISCO, Aug. 20.-Sen.
ator Hiram w. Johnson, western
outpost of progressive Republican
ism, is in a political fight that in
wolves nothing less than his polit-
ical future. His fight is to unseat
the State government at Sacra-
rnento and to retire to private law
practice his colleague, Senator Sam
Shortridge.
Johnson has assumed his old role
of militant State leader. He has
taken off his coat and is making
a spectacular speaking campaign
against Governor Richardson and
Senator Shortridge.
Backing Young
( He is urging the nomination of
Lieutenant Governor c. c. Young,
one of his fellow crusaders of the
Lincoln Roosevelt League, and of ex-
Judge Robert M. Clark Los Angeles

nor and Senator respectively.
The issues in the Young Richard.
son battle are much the same as
those of sixteen years ago when
Johnson evolved from an obscure
lawyer into CALIFORNIA; most popu-
lar governor. through campaign
to kick the Southern Pacific Rail-
way out of politics" Today, under
Richardson, not only is the Southern
Pacific back in politics, but also the
banks, the big power companies, and
the allied public service corpora
tons. led by the Los Angeles Times
and screwed by one of the most re-
dictionary administrations in the
States history.
NVotes for Newberry
The senatorial issues are the op-
position of Clarke and Johnson to
the world court and the promise to
send a fighting southern California
man to the upper house to make
battle for the Swing johnson bill.
Shortridge's Senate record, including
his vote for Newberry for the Mellon
tax scheme, against Gerald Nye and
4 his last minute conversion to the
Boulder dam plan. is being aired on
the stump and in the liberal press.
Two years hence Johnson himself
must run for reelection. With
Young In power at Sacramento he
could be assured of a friendly State
administration instead of the present.
hostile one. With Clarke in Short.
ridges seat, the populous southern
end could not put up an anti-John
son candidate on purely sectional
grounds.
If Young and Clarke are defeated.
Hiram may have a real fight to hold
his seat.
