Speak Up For Prosperity

The CIO believes that the time
to do something about a depres-
sion is before the first signs APP
pear-not after.
The CIO has presented its pro-
gram to combat depression. It
calls for more adequate unem-
playment compensation benefits,
increased personal income tax
exemptions, public works and
other means to give people the
money to buy the things our fac
tories can make.
The CIO believes we in Amer
lea can achieve and maintain
full prosperity and jobs for ALL
Americans whether they live in
New England, the south, the mid
die west or the Pacific coast
whether they work on the farm
or in the factory.
The way to do that is to elect
men and women to public office
who will speak up for prosper
ity, who can look forward and see
storms coming who have a bet
ter answer to lay-offs than lets
not talk about it"
So speak up for your job.
The job you save may be your
own.

Captain Award of the St. Louis
police told me about a quarry
swimming hole in which two little
children almost drowned. "A oou-
pie of alert patrolrnen fished them
out m the nick Of time" he said.
But you move fast against nun

town was really up in arms. but

action on the grounds that lit
would place financial responsibility
on the town"
Incensed parents, fearing more
drownings, descended on the pit
with shovels. wheelbarrows and a
couple of borrowed" bulldozers.
Working around the clock, they
filled in the pit themselves. A
