He has a real interest in the
problems of the underprivileged,
and no request is too small to
merit his consideration.
l have watched Tom Burke
work for almost five years and
have developed real liking for
his earnestness, his ability and
his disregard for pressure.
Tom has had a real training
in the school of hard knocks,
which automatically places him
alongside of the underdog in
every contest.
Tom is not envious of success,
but has a firm belief that the
opportunity to succeed should be
guaranteed to all who would
avail themselves of that chance.
One of the most important
problems that will be faced by
the next Congress will be high
prices. Two years ago, after an
artificially created meat short
age, we were told that food and
other commodities would be
available in quantities and at
reasonable prices, to the cry OF
Have you had enough?" The
people turned to a new steward
ship, only to shortly realize that
rationing by high prices was
much more vexatious than ra-
tioning as a means of dividing
a va il a bl e food at reasonable.
prices. Only men of courage who
have lived with the problem can
furnish the answer. Tom Burke.
falls in that category.

Congress. He would represent
the best interest of the Ninth
