Jim Wood has an alibi Jim says his brother, Charlie Wood, did not write y letters on King county central committee stationery, offer- jobs on election boards to those who would wthdraw ir names from the Hamilton recall. The Star said the republican county central committee tionery was used and the name of. Charles B. Wood was to it. The Star repeats the statement today If Jim Wood, who is a political press agent and secre- of the state republican central committee, says it wasn't) brother Charlie who wrote the letter, then, of course, it} that Charlie Wood. It must be some other Charlie} ‘ood. | If Israel Nelson, chairman of the republican central com- says the republican organization had nothing to do the attempt to bribe William Knox with the offer to him a job as election official in precinct 214, it may be that Nelson knows what he’s talking about. And/ n it may be possible that Nelson doesn’t. Maybe somebody forged Charlie Wood's name to the iter written on republican stationery.
