Wheels Within Other Wheels and a Bedford Paper Feud
In Bedford Iowa a disputed claim ties the Bedford Heat Light and Power Co to ownership of the Free Press. The T-R alleges shared ownership, while the author asserts full control by M. L Burt and himself. Dennis Hamblin withdraws from the Republican bid for Taylor County representative, citing health and workload concerns. He praises supporters but says a full county campaign would be too demanding and notes another primary may be held with two potential candidates considered.
