ers We need to retain and to elect
statesmen whose one purpose is the
welfare Of the people whom they
represent and who will not listen to
the deceptive prattle or join in the
mud singing of their political en-

be political suicide at this time to

to continue good government in the
18th congressional district, and
then Hon Charles Sawyer for gov

to solve that problem, having served |
a former term he has proven his |
worth in that office. Vote for Han |
