Another attractive angle, from my
view point, is, that. the. middle man

lever in teh farmer presenting his
products to the consumer.
My letter to the Alexandria Cham
Der of Commerce and published in
the Alexandra Gazette states very
emphatically that / am for the Lit
tie River Turnpike in particular, and
other good county and state roads in
general: it also contains some re-
marks as to why l am for it-from
purely business standpoint, per-
haps it is, not. as clear and concise
to the readers as I would have it,
so l am writing this that there can
lie no mistake as to how and where
I stand. And further, l am unal-
terably opposed to the road cutting
across or entering into Arlington
county from any junction. Very few
people in Arlington County could
possibly derive any benefit whatso-
ever by this road going through the
county, and if the Louisiana Avenue
merchants want to use this road to
transport produce from the Valley,
they will have to suffer the road and
the produce coming through Alexan-
| dria.

places, and generally speaking, this
road is almost impossible. The PEG
pie l talked on the route, princi-
pally farmers, were profoundly in
terested in the prospects of having
the Little River Turnpike highway
for their products to reach an i'm
mediate point of sale. Also, some
spoke very favorably of using it to
go to Alexandria and Washington
for pleasure trips.
| Building Highways for Virginia is
the largest business enterprise in the
State. And, I believe it is the desire
of the people of Virginia to go
ahead with the construction of State
and county highways as rapidly as
they can efficiently be constructed.
In my stand for the Little River
Highway, I ar irretrievable and ir-
reversible for the route as is pro-
posed and rs the sketch shows. Not
only do I know that the city of Alex
andria will De greatly benefited by
this road III opening up the rich
farming districts and bring fresh
produce directly to the consumer
but also the farmer will find in Alex
andria plentiful supply OF nler-
chandise ::or both his farm ant

Union Labor.

July 20, 19-l.
Mr.. NJ. B. Thompson, President,
Trades Council,
Alexandria, Virginia.
Dear Mr.. Thompson:
l am pleased to answer Your in
quiry of last week which was COM
runicated to me by you in person.
In the beginning, permit me to say
that | have always been sympathetic
with the cause of organized labor.
believe that only through your united
and organized efforts you have been
able TO attain greater efficiency IN
Your own ranks and to improve the
conditions of the working man to its
present level. Personally, | have
never been antagonistic to organized
labor and have at all times, | be-
licve, maintained the respect and con-
fideIcc Of the working man.
During last year, built a house in
the City of Alexandria and in the
course of construction, l presume,
there were several dozen men en-
picyct and at no time was any work
mani allowed on the job until | was
satisfied that he held union card
and was in good standing in his local.
That I believe, answers the question
as to how I feel personally towards
organized labor.
As you know, am a candidate for
the office Of House of Delegates from
this District and l solicit the vote of
organized labor. And in doing SO, l
feel that my record justifies me in
asking the support of organized labor
in general. If elected, shall be GLAD
to be called upon at any time by duly
constituted representatives of your
organization with an idea of repre-
senting your best interests in our
Legislative Body. While, l wish it
understood that if l am elected. I
shall go to my duties as an independ-
ant Democrat, untrammelled and
owing allegiance to no political ma
chine or faction of men, but rather
representative of the people-thc
masses, from which I am proud to say
I came.
l favor broadening the scope of our
present workmans Compensation
Laws to include all crafts of labor eN-
posed to the same hazards while at
work. l favor any reasonable and fair
law which seeks to better the living
and working conditions of the labor
ing man. l am against the anti
strike law o. any legislation which
seeks to throttle the legitimate or
ganized operation Of organized Ia
Dor.
Finally. if I am elected to the legis-
