Two years later, Herring had other than kind words for Miss Samuelson after she agreed to introduce the Republican candidate for president, Alf Landon, during his visit to Des Moines.

Herring Letter Herring, in a letter to Miss Samuelson. said he was "deep a 75-ycar pris that pott until 1939. During her term a Iowa achool superintendent, she also served president of the National Education Association in 1935-36, She retired as state superintendent in 193!) to become executive secretary of the Iowa State Fduntion Association, a position she held until 1945. Retired In 1952 Then, she resigned to become assistant public relations director of the N. E.

A. She served in that position in Washington, D. until 1952 when she retired and returned to Iowa. Her years as a leader in education in Iowa and the nation were sparked with battles, both in the field of education and of politics. She also received unqualified support from unexpected sources in both fields.

Back in the roaring 20's, Miss Samuelson gave the flapper dress an endorsement. During speech at Maquoketa on Oct 22, 1927, she said teachers dressed more "sensibly" than any other class of women. She said oftentimes the flappers made the best teachers because they had "an excessive amount of energy and initiative and the spirit to see thincs through." Also in 1927. a number of Iowa school officials banded together to give Miss Samuelson a substantial financial gift at Christmas time. Turned Down Gift She turned down the present, saying, "The only gift from the teachers of Iowa possible for me to accept has already been made in the evidence of their increased devotion and deeper consecration to the great cause of public education." Gov.

Clyde Herring, a Democrat, gave Miss Samuelson an unprecedented endorsement during the 1934 election campaign. He urged the Democrats not to nominate anyone to oppose Miss Samuelson, a Republican, for re-election as state superintendent of schools.
