SENATOR REED WILL
STAND FOR REELECTION

u. S. Senator James A. Reed an
nounced in st. Louis Tuesday that he
had decided to stand for reelection.
He is now serving his second term in
that office, In making, this announce
ment he stated that such decision had
been reached only after careful and
painstaking thought and considera-
ton. In giving out this decision, the
Senator dictated the following state
ment: .-...
81 have hesitated in making an an
nouncement solely because remaining
in office entails a very considerable
personal sacrifice. But interest in
my party to which have devoted
much of my time during the cam
paigns of. the last 40 years, together
with great concern regarding vital
public questions now confronting the
country, have convinced me that it is
my duty to again stand for nomina-
ton.
ain the II years | have sat In the
Senate have been guided solely by
a desire to serve the public interests.
| have never in the casting of vote
or the discussion of public measure
been actuated by personal or self
ish motive.
every important question has been
given the most painstaking study in
an effort to arrive at correct con-
clusion. This necessarily involved
the exercise of Independent judgment.
In my view. Senator who fails to
pursue such a course ceases to per-
form the solemn duty imposed upon
him by HIS oath of office, and de-
prives the people of that representa-
ton to which they are entitled under
the Constitution.
"The independence of the Legislative
branch of the Government is as es-
sential to the maintenance of the
Republic as is the independence of the
executive or judicial departments.
aft there are those who believe Il
Senator should follow different
course. | think they are mistaken.
eff l am reelected, / shall give to
the people of our state and country
the highest service of which am ca
pable."
