Why Not Missed State Speaker Appointment
The paper questions why the republican committee did not appoint Kirt Allen of this city as a state Speaker. Allen is a distinguished Republican with influence in state conventions and strong oratorical ability. Some disparage him as a polecat yet he remains a loyal Republican by inheritance, and a county attorney cannot change that. The piece suggests Hoover could lose Iowa if Allen was not employed to campaign for him.
