GOVERNOR HARTLY
FLAYS STATE
PAPERS
Isays attempt being made to
CAUSE DISSENT BETWEEN
SELF AND LEGISLATURE
OLYMPIA, Oct. 12. (/P)—Criticising
what'he characterizes as “an attempt
; of some of the leading newspapers aid
ed by some busy body and troublemak*
ers to create strife and cause a breach
between the legislature and the gov
ernor,” Hartley yesterday decried any
attempt on his part to play the role of
dictator and bulldozer in his dealings
with the legislature.”
The role for the newspapermen, the
governor said, should be to do some
thing constructive to help the gover
nor and the legislature to work togeth
er.
“What is the matter, there are many
angles to this business. But what is
the main reason? Politics. Yes,
Greed, envy, hatred and jealous mas
que^ding under the guise of politics,
trying to destroy the administration.
But politics are not going to run the
governor, nor the administration of
this state, not for the next three years.
