UNITED STATES SENA-
TOR CHAS. l. McNARY

Because United States Senator
Charles l.. McNary has made good he
should be nominated to succeed himself
in the Republican Primary, May 18th.
From the day he became senator he
has Loyalty championed the prosecution
of the war, and during his term of
office has accomplished more for Ore
gon than any other member in congress
in like period
Among his colleagues he is known as
''the man on the Job and during the
present war crisis Oregon should con-
slider itself fortunate in having an OPP
portunity to return him and not be
compelled to send to Washington
new, unframed man.
Believing that the supreme obliga-
tion he owes his country is to help
win the war, Senator McNary, instead
of returning to his state to conduct
political campaign, is at his post in
Washington working for Oregon and
aiding in the prosecution of the war.
Always since entering the senate he
has been a friend of our soldiers and
sailors and has introduced legislation
giving them preferential rights and
repeatedly championed their cause
when their welfare was in jeopardy.
Champioping the cause of the Oregon
farmers, Senator McNary procured for
them a primary wheat market, saving
thereby several million dollars to the
wheatgrowers of the Northwest
Realizing the present food control
law fails to fix prices for many com
modities, Senator McNary has intro
duced, and is laboring for the passage
of a bill, striking at prohteering and
fixing prices on the necessarles of life.
Senator McNary has procured:
Government contracts for the first
time in the states history for Oregon
products, such as prunes, dehydrated
potatoes and vegetables in large guam
titles.
Large contracts from the govern
ment for army clothing and shipbuild-
ing and numbering industries.

Jects.
Favorable action from same commit
tee on bill authorizing the Secretary
of the Interior to accept irrigation or
district drainage bonds and exchange
them with the Secretary of the Treas
ury for certificates of Indebtedness,
thereby providing funds for legitimate

and sailors
A comprehensive plan for the utliza-
tlon of the water power resources of
Oregon.

ern Oregon.

Senator McNary was born on a farm
in Oregon, reared in the Baptist church :;
educated in the public schools; worked
his way through Stanford University;
is lawyer and farmer and has been a
life long Republican.
He was formerly a justice on the
supreme court and later chairman of
the State Republican Central Commit
tee.
Space forbds further enumeration of
the vast amount Of work Senator Nc
Nary has done for Oregon, but anyone
will realize from the foregoing the
Senator has displayed truly remarkable
ability, coupled with extraordinary dill
igence and energy. His native state
can best show it's appreciation of his
faithful and efficient services by NOM
mating and electing him.
