Mr. Padgett is leader in the af-

has been little or no criticism Of the

which this can be said without the
fear Of successful contradiction. Its
achievements are Justly source Of
pride to the American public. Mr..
Padgett as the head of the great
naval affairs committee has been
largely responsible for the legislation
that has made our navy great and
strong and ready.
MIR: Padgett's career In congress
has been a remarkable one. Only two
members of the states delegation
have served longer in the House and
they are Representatives Moon and
Sims. Only two members before
them,. Benton McMillin and James d.
Richardson ever served twenty years
In the house from this state. No rep
resentativs from this district ever
served before longer than sixteen
years and that service was not con-

better service than the present repre-
sentative. He is deserving the honors
conferred upon him.
