Has Studied State Issues

There seems to be plenty of can
didates in the Republican party for
governor, Fleetwood first made his
announcement, then Clement and
Howe. OF this trio of announced
candidates Lieutenant Governor
Howe's clearly worded. simple and
practical statement of Vermont
conditions and needs with suggest
ed legislative changes, is favorably
commented upon by the voters
among whom Mr.. Howe has a
strong following. They have watched
his work in the legislature and his
always fair and free manner of deal
ing with vital issues, and they be-
lieve in his honesty of purpose.
Mr.. Howe had given Vermont is
sues long and earnest study and on
several issues has taken stand
far in advance of the political par
| ties, but which today is live iss.
and one that must be met The
principual issue Mr.. Howe has advo-
| Gated for these years is direct

ment and help to lift him up to ;
better realization of his manhood.
Mr.. Howe does this without tn,
plare of trumpets and glaring an

individual and works from patriotic
and sympathetic motives.
II II the republican party SHOULD
