Gowen Lauded by W. Kee Maxwell
Fullerton Writer Supports Former Councilman for Assembly Position
(The following article is written by W. Kee Maxwell, of Fullerton, prominent newspaperman and editorial writer.—Ed. Note.)
Good government begins with the voter—with his selection of good men for public office. To pick good men, it is necessary to know something of the records of the candidates; words and promises are cheap.
Voters of the 75th assembly district are offered as a candidate for assemblyman a man whose record speaks for itself as to his qualifications for this important post—Thomas K. Gowen.
"Tom" Gowen has been a resident of this district for nearly 25 years. During that time he has been engaged in citrus growing and in the conducting of a business of considerable size. He has served the city of Fullerton a total of eight years as councilman and mayor. For two years he has been chairman of public relations of the John Brown university and its affiliated schools, and at the present time is superintendent and manager of the Brown Military academy at Pacific Beach and the Glendora School for Girls.
By reason of these varied experiences, Gowen knows the problems of the rancher and the business man; he knows the ins and outs of legislative and administrative work, and the important
and mayor. For two years he has been chairman of public relations of the John Brown university and its affiliated schools, and at the present time is superintendent and manager of the Brown Military academy at Pacific Beach and the Glendora School for Girls.
By reason of these varied experiences, Gowen knows the problems of the rancher and the business man; he knows the ins and outs of legislative and administrative work, and the important relations existing between the state and the municipalities; he has demonstrated his executive capacities and his knowledge of how to get things done. Certainly it would be hard to find a man whose experience and record would better fit him for the responsible job of representing an important district at the state capitol.
"Tom" Gowen is sound and solid, a clean-out, progressive citizen with a friendly attitude towards his fellow men. An assembly containing a majority of his type would be a godsend to the state of California at a time when common sense and common honesty mean so much to the public welfare.
The 75th district can do itself and the state at large a service by nominating and electing "Tom" Gowen to the assembly.
