Avner Considered Candidacy for Iowa Governor in 1924 Primaries
An official statement of Horace Havner’s candidacy for the Republican primaries next June is anticipated from Des Moines. Havner’s move would set off political fire as questions loom over Gov. Harding's pardon matter and prior trials. Avner may stress suffrage support and a law enforcement platform to win women voters who are expected to influence the primary. Several candidates await year-end moves and a possible early 1924 announcement, with Col Claude Stanley among potential contenders.
