Washington, April 30. (AP) —
Senator W. Lee O'Daniel of Tex-
as "reckoned" he wouldn't have
much trouble winning the gover-
norship of Texas because "Most
of my old friends would still
me and a ^lot of - New
lers who spent so much mon-
ey trying to defeat me when I
came to the senate, would back
me In order to get me out of
Washington."
But, saysj the senator, "I have-
n't made' up my mind yet about
running, becausc I haven't fig-
ured out y6t where I can do the
most good fighting this New
Deal Crowd."
O'Daniel has two mote years to
go on his senate term. He could
run for governor, and if defeated,
retain his seat.
