tian gentleman, and because he has
a spinal column" "He is capable
and would call to his assistance a
cabinet of -blooded Americans. "
~ am for Judge Nations because
he would not fill all the appointive
Offices in his control with papists. "
IF we are to have a League of
Nations, let's make it gilt-edged by
electing G. 0. Nations president of
the U. S. A." "He is a scholar, a
diplomat, and statesman, believes
in complete separation Of church
and state, in our free public
schools, in free speech and freedom
of expression on all subjects not
defiant Of law and constitutional
authority" 81 would favor a
democrat-not a Democrat, a re-
publican-not Republican, one
who fayors the public schools and
fears not Rome, and whose chosen
associates, down to secretary, would
be genuine American. G.. 0. Ma
tions seems to be the man..
"The best informed and best
fitted American to thwart the un-
seen enemy in the, war after the
war; q distinguished jurist and
profound student of civil, common,
and canon law, and of ancient and
modern history"
"He has the needed nerve and
backbone. If we must fight for
our liberties, let us have fighters
for leaders" "He would not rec
ogniz6 a pope-made apostolic dele
gate at the seat of American gov
ernment or allow the gift of public
funds to sectarian substitutes for
schools" "Has the courage to do
the right thing"
"The issue in the coming cam
paign is a moral issue and Mr.. Ma
tons is a capable man who is NOR
ally right" "He would uphold
the national constitution which is
the, foremost need of the time"
1.-THE right man in the right
place. " Has foresighted mind
capable of sensing national needs
and possible troubles, and of solv-
ing them prayerfully."
"The nomination of Judge Ma
tions would show the kind Of a
man we want, acredit to the coun-
try and power for justice" "a
true American by birth, talent,
ability, character, in righteousness
and popularity; is four-square on
questions of national import. "
HE is practical statesman,
therefore preferable to practical
politicians"
Gov. Sidney j. Cats
CT AM FOR Gov. Cats because
l he stands by our public
schools and isn't afraid to let the
enemy know it" "a man with
the courage of his convictions who
has never been a college professor
or a corporation lawyer, and who
would see that his attorney general
earned his salary by enforcement
of law"
SPEAKS what he thinks and en-
forces the law unafraid of the
pope s noisy and turbulent dupes.
Thinks right, acts right, coura
geous, true American who be-
lieves in liberty and whose deeds
are consistent with that faith
II am for Cats because he take,
the right stand on the Roman
Catholic and the liquor question.

J souled and true-blue American

regardless of race, or color; no en-
| tangling alliances with the Euro
pcan world; jealous Of our FIRE
government and opposed to one
man power" my choice bccaus

Of Massachusetts,. I"
