Our endorsements

On this page are the STARS endorsements of candi-
dates running for office in Illinois in the November
election.
Clip this list of candidates. Take it with you when
you go to the polls Tuesday,
These STAR endorsements have been based on the
major issues of the campaign analysed in editorial
page two and in previous issues of the STAR
They take into consideration not only the record and
program of the endorsed candidates. but the relation of
their campaigns to the whole political picture and the
nature of their opposition 1t is only the extremely dam
gerous nature of this opposition which has led to
dorse for example, such nominees Edward A. Kelly
and Harold Kobe in the third and tenth Congressional
districts.
IN THE, contest for state and country offices we
have followed the endorsements listed by the CLOS Poi
cal Action Committee, with few changes. We have done
this because feel that the most important considera-
ton in the local campaigns is building cearcu bloc of
independent progressive votes for unified nonparsan
slate. ~ t e.
For the reason we have emphasized the inde-
pendent candidates. of Dorothea Allen Sylvia Woods
and Claude M Lighfoot In the 21s and 29th senatorial
districts where there three state representatives to
be elected apiece, strongly urge bullet vote for
Mrs. Woods and Mrs. Allen respectively rather than di
vidng the ballot for these Independents with other can
didates.
The Importance of heavy and concentrated vote for
these three candidates cannot be overephasize 1t will
be showing of strength outside routine party lines that
the machine politicians will be unable to ignore More
important such vote be the forerner of an indie
pendent peoples party in the 194S Illinois campaign
THE STAR recommends "yes' vote on the three
important referendum issues that will appear on the bal
lot In previous editorials have outlined separately
our reasons for supporting the soldiers bonus the gate
way" amendment, and the use of voting machines
Confusion that has arisen about the soldiers bonus
ISSUE however makes it necessary to repeat the chief
reason it should be supported In spite the need of both
veterans and nonveterans for legislation housing and
other basic issues, the simple fact that the veterans
NEED the bonus too No hairspittinr about obvious inn
PROJECTIONS in financing and other aspects the proposal
can deny the fact that it will help bring Illinois veterans
to more nearly equal economic footing with non-vet-
Grams.

Sharing Room
Pays Dividends
To John Mccoy

The following article, taken from
a recent issue of the Lebanon West
er Star, will be of interest to
Marysville residents:
THAT it sometimes pays big div
idendS to share a room with a
stranger in these days of housing
shortages has been amply proved
by John c. Mccoy jr.. son of Rev.
and Mrs. ]. c. Mccoy.
"One night last March he obtain
ed the last room available in a
hotel at Carrollton, Mo-, then was
asked to share the room with an
other guest who arrived immed-
iatly afterward. The stranger
turned out to be an official of the
Pipe Line division of the Sinclair
Refining CO. So favorably impressed
was he by his chance roommate
that several months later he hunted
him up and offered him an attract
i've position as right of way agent
for the Sinclair concern.
"Mr. Mccoy formed his new
connection on Nov. /. For the past
IL years he has been civil engin-
eer on the Missouri division of the
Santa Fe railway and has lived at
Marceline, Mo.
The Rev. Mr.. Mccoy was pastor
of the First Presbyterian church in
Marysville from 1921 until 1882,
during which years John jr. attend
ed school in Marysville. The fam
lily has resided in Lebanon since
1882, where the Rev. Mr.. Mccoy
is pastor of the Presbyterian
church.
