FHE REPUBLICAN, PARTY SHOULD
BE RENVBSTED WITH I'M
REnTs OF GOVERNMENT.
By Congressman Martin B. Madden.

The Importance Of the election Of
Harding, Coolidge and a Republican
Senate and House cannot be too
strongly emphasized The continuance
Of the Democrats in power means the
Nations suicide. Extravaganza and
waste in public expenditure must b
stopped. A business administration
must be inaugurated. Reorganization
Of the Government departments is an
essential need Of the hour. The Re
publican party is committed to such
reorganization, to an economical I'D.
ministration, to the prevention Of waste,
to the conservation Of public funds, to
the preservation Of American liberty, to
the prevention Of perpetual entangling
alliance with Europe to the PrOtee-
ton Of American industry, to the up
building Of American commerce, to .
government Of laws under the COnsti-
tuition and not Of dietators, to the pro-
lection Of the home market against
foreign invasion, to the expansion Of
American industries, and to the Ameri-
eanization of America
The Democratic administration has
utterly failed to meet the expectations
of the American people either in
economy or efficiency Of administration
or in the preservation of American
rights. 1 appeal to all who believe in
America First to vote for Harding
Coolidge and the Republican 'andi-
dates for the Senate and House.
