Candidate Charles Hanson Seeks Richland County School Post

Charles Hanson, Walcott School principal, is a Democratic candidate for Richland County superintendent of schools. Born on a Green County Wisconsin farm, he worked through school and rose to lead Walcott village school. He writes on education, favors practical scholarship and civic service, and has broad experience in Wisconsin and North Dakota schools. Rumors in Washington link Roosevelt administration moves to railroad cases, with Bonaparte deflecting prosecution. A separate note covers best timing for spraying mustard and grain fields, and local Methodist church graduation and Children’s Day services planned.
