swer for him or herself In this recall
election campaign is: Shall l help to
remove or help to not remove from
Office public ohicials who are guilty Ct
misusing and squandering several mil.
lion dollars, and using part OF 1t for
their personal benefit. They are in
office now. Therefore, everyone who
does nothing to help get them out
helps to keep them in and permits
the squandering of public funds to
continue until January, 1928.
IAN precinct captains, petition cir
culators and other workers Of the In.
dependent organization are volunteers,
serving without pay, therefore, all
voters who believe in honesty and ef.
ficiencv in public service should do
everything they can to make 1t as
easy as possible for the petition circu-
lators to get the signatures Of the
voters on the petitions.
