Whereas, Raymond Trainor, esq, of

for the seat now held by Congressman
Porter H. Dale, and
Whereas, in the past we have always
found said Trainor on the side OF the

Resolved, That the Wilder Central
Labor union indorse Raymond Trainor as
candidate for congressional honor, and
be it further
Resolved, That the necessary steps be
taken to present this endorsement to the
workers and voters of the second Yer
mont congressional district
In addition to being Endorsed by the
labor unions of the town of Hartford
Mr. Trainor would undoubtedly draw
strongly from the local option vote if he
became a candidate, as he was one Of the
organizers of the Vermont Local Option
eague and has been its secretary since
1915.
With FRANK w Agan, president of tn,
league, candidate for governor, tn
question would Immediately be suggested
IS to whether both executive officers o
the league could successfully enter tn,
primaries, one as a candidate for gov
Arpor and one as a candidate for con
