Hart Back With Governor
Return of Weldon Hart to his
old job as Gov. Allan Shivers'
first assistant is causing much
speculation.
Hart has been serving as the
chairman of the Texas Employ-
ment Commission since 1958.
Before that he was the Govern-
or’s top political and public re-
lations strategist.
His return to the Capitol is
variously interpreted as (1)
girding for the battle to control
the Democratic state conven-
tion, (2) priming for new politi-
cal campaigns, or (8) an aid in
clearing up criticism resulting
from insurance developments.
