GOV. HUNT TO AGAIN

GOVERNOR THIS YEAR
Special Dispatch To Nogales International States
That Governor Hunt Will Seek Reelection This
Year To Office Of Chief Executive
HUNT PREFERRED NOT TO BE CANDIDATE

retire from politics and vigorous
ly support his successor in the
fall campaign.
It is generally conceded by
both Democratic and Republican
leaders throughout the state that
Hunt, as candidate, will be
stronger this year than ever be-
fore. This is due largely to the
present status of the Colorado
river compact, which will come up
again at the next session Of Con-
'gress in December. s'To change
horses in the middle of the
stream, say Democratic leaders,
"and defeat Hunt for reelection
would be exactly what California
would like to see. A Hunt de-
feat would enable the California
leaders and newspapers to preach
to Congress that Hunts stand on
the Colorado river pact, was not
the stand of a majority of Ari-
zonans. Gov. Hunts opposition to
the Colorado pact has contributed
more than anything else to pre-
vention of passage of the Swing
Johnson bill.

Phoenix, Ariz., June T. Gov

his candidacy for the Democratic
nomination for governor, it was

The Governor has been waiting
for several months to give any
Democrat an opportunity to make
the race whom he thinks could
win over the Republicans in No
vember but that person has not
come out, so Hunt himself will
again be candidate.
The Governor honestly and
earnestly prefers not to run this
year but he is not willing to turn
the state otger to the Republicans,
and therefore, since no strong
candidate has announced for the
Democratic nomination he feels
it is duty to again become the
Democratic standard bearer.
Governor Hunt would be- very.
glad to see strong candidate in
