M.Qrren Launches
Attack on Olson

After praising Imperial Valley hos
pitality at town hall meeting in
Ell Centro Monday night, Attorney
General Earl Warren launched a
double -barreled attack on Governor
Culbert Olson, charging him with
everything from inefficiency in Of
flee to trying to bring the Japs back
to California.
Speaking before 1000 Ell Centrans,
Warren accused the states chief
executive of fighting with the legis-
lature which is of his own faith" :"
of not helping to provide suitable
leadership for the civilian defense
effort and taking credit for the
states financial situation when no
credit is due him.
Not one bit of leadership nor one
bit of equipment has come from the
state defense council" the non-
partisan candidate for governor de-
clared. He criticized the appoint
ment of men not trained in law
enforcement to positions on the de-
fense council, which is responsible
for law enforcement under war
conditions"

bring back Japs from concentration
camps ana from out of the state IN
