Frank f. Smith To
Run For Congress
To The Voter of Holmes County

l deem it a high privilege to
he able to submit my candidacy
for u. S. Representative from
the Third Congressional District
to the voters of Holmes County.
My mother was born and rear
ed in West, in your county, and
my forebears were among the
pioneers of this area more than
one hundred years ago.
AS your neighbor and through
my association with the people
of your county, / have deveoped
a considerable knowledge of your
problems and / can assure you
that they will receive conside-
rate and careful attention if / am
elected to represent you in Wash
ington,
Your Congressman is your
direct representative in Washing
ton. He must represent the in
terests of the Third District in
regard to all legislation, all legis-
lative proposals, and with the
various government agencies.
have been fortunate enough to
have two years experience in
Washington on the staff of Sena-
tor John Stnnis. / will be in posi-
ton to step Immediately into this
work without loss of time, and
make ample use of my past train
ing and experience.
The present national admins
tration has sacrificed principle &c
politics all down the line. Vigor-
Gus new leanership is needed to
join the battle to preserve and to
strengthen our American system
of free enterprise and individual
liberty.
At a time when the fullest ma
tional unity is needed to face
our enemis abroad, disruptive
new schemes are presented to
the people, with politics as their
only motivating power. Many of
these new programs have been
presented to us with high
sounding titles and pleasing fam
fare. We have to look beneath
the surface to see that they in
corporate vast changes which
could in the final analysis des-
troy our very way of life. /
pledge myself to fight any ten
decies toward socialism or toali-
tatitianism, no matter who spon-
sors hem.
My basic philosophy of govern
ment is the belief that we should
return to he fundamentals of JEFF
fersonian democracy Only when
we have a complete understand
ing of old-fashioned Americanism
in our national leadership can
we expect to preserve our tradi-
tional system of free enterprise
and individual liberty.
There is no place in this brief
announcement to outline in full
all details of my platform on the
various issues that will be before
Cogress, but / would like to list
seven basic fundamentals.

authority. Constitutional govern
ment must be preserved.
Economy and Efficiency in
Government-Wasteful Expendi-
lures must be curbed immediate

Agriculture-Must be protected
against low commodity prices
and disaster years. Assistance
must be provided without regi-
mentation.
Flood Control-Vital to the
economy of our district. The pre-
sent program must be expand
and improved.
Small Business-Must be pro-
tected against discriminatory tax
alton and concentration of mon
opolistic economic power.
Preparedness-Against our en-
emies, both foreign and domestic.

Senate Approves Control Power For Truman

WASHINGTON, (P) - Over Whelming Senate approval of a home front mobilization bill vir- tually assured President Truman yesterday the power to invoke Wage-price-rationing controls and otherwise gear the nation to a wartime footing.
 The Senate passed the emer- gency measure Monday night by a Whopping 85to 3 vote. It did so after writing in some restrictions on the Presidents authority which administration forces battled against in vain.
 The Senate bill and an econo- mic controls measure which the House approved on Aug. 10 are vastly different in some essential details, but both authorize MT. Truman to impose wage-price

 General Barriger told the com mittee the. funds sought would bring army installations in Alaska to 75 per cent of full readiness.
 Col. c. E. Galloway. chief of the army engineers construction operations division, estimated that the new facilities would be ready within two years.
 Galloway said the request in- cludes no funds for new barracks.
 "They are under construction or on the way," he said.
 Rear Admiral J. F. Jelley, chief of the navy bureau of yards and docks, asked the committee to ap- prove a total of $1, 1,548,000 for navy installations at Kodiak,

curbs and other imitation controls.
 So the bill which finally goes to the White House-after a Sen ate-House conference committee irons out differences between the two versions-certainly will carry wage-price-rationing authority.
 Overriding vigorous administra- tion opposition, the Senate voted 50 to 38 to require the President to invoke wage and price controls simultaneously and virt u ally across the board if he imposed tfem at all. The amendment was sponsored by Republican Senators Bricker (Ohio) and Wherry Neb.)
 That directive killed section of the administration bill which would have let MT. Truman put wage and price controls into eff feet on a selective basis if he cared to, in advance of any over all program.
 The House bill permits selec- tive controls.

Senators Demand Universal Military Training Be Passed

WASHINGTON, (P)-Nine Sen ators who form more than a ma jority of the armed services com mittee demanded yesterday that Congress stay in session until it approves universal military train ing legislation.
 The Senators said one by one in brief statements that the safety of the nation can be secured only if young men are trained in mass to bear arms.
 Their statements came as Secre- tary of defense Johnson told the committee that Western Europe lacks sufficient military strength to slow down an aggressor until American help arrives.
 He said the United States does not now have enough trained men to meet the threat of total war within the time limits which pres ent conditions impose"
 Gen. Omar N. Bradley, chair man of the joint chiefs of staff, also testified that universal mili- tary training lis the only satisfac- tory long range answer" to the need for 9 reservoir of trained men to meet the many years of tension in international affairs" he said that probably lies ahead after the Korean situation is set tied.
