the situation. Rosenzweig or Rose
as he prefers to be addressed, is 9
Jewish boy from Grand Forks
North Dakota, and has been driver
for the Governor ever since he en-.
tered office in 1882. Farmer-Labol
department heads and employees are
not particularly enamored Of Ros-
enzweig because Of his close Cub
ernatoria1 connection and his ten
dency to let his Excellency in on
the gossip he picks up. Just now
Rosenzweig is in daily touch with
Gov. Olson by air mail and long
distance telephone and the assump-
ton is that the Governor is being
kept well posted. politically and
otherwise. Another long distance
help is Abe Harris, listed on the
pay rolls as chief director Of public
relations. Both are pleasant fellows
to meet.
Youth
The Young Republicans, under
the brainy leadership of Harold
Stassen of Dakota County, have
made a fine start and are bound
to give q good account Of them
selves in the coming primary and
fall elections. More power to them,
I say.
Confidential
Very, very early birds. Drawing
late winter storms, confide to deli
cate ears that Judge Devaney's
name may appear on the June bal
lot as a candidate for u. S. Senate.
This confirms an inside and con-
fidential tip which The County
Chairman passed on to the readers
of this column some time ago. The
Judge remains silent Judge Dew
aney's candidacy is predicted on a
belief that Gov. Olson. because of
his present illness, will not be able
to enter the senatorial contest in
which event the chief justice would
be made the joint candidate of
both the Democratic and Farmer
Labor parties. He was elected as
chief Justice with the backing of
the Farmer-Labor forces. Joe
Wolf, national Democratic commit
teeman, is strong booster for the
chief justice.
ClarksOn
One of the big shots in the Min
nesota Landon drive for the Re
publican nomination for President
is brainy Harry Clarkson of Min.

ing with Sen. Roy Crowley who in
addition to managing the Landon
Campaign in Minnesota is also
candidate for Republican National
Committeeman. Word is that the
Senate majority is not altogether
Landon minded. A number are
listed as favoring Col. Frank Knox,
Chicago Publisher.
Shalueup
The rumor Is unconfirmed, but
talk runs strong to an early shake
up in the state conservation depart
ment with e. v. Willard, conserva-
ton commissioners and G. M. Con-
yet, director of forestry due to take
a walk. Another who may pass
out of the picture is Mrs. Blanche
L. LaDu, chairman of the state
board of control, whose term ex-
pires in April. Farmer-Laborites
want their jobs. Intimation is that
If the two conservation jobs are
politically tempered with that the
executive concil will crack down
on relief project moneys granted
the conservation department.
