Candidate for
Delegate to Republican National Convention
Fourth Congressional District
1952 is OUR EAST
CHANCE to rescue our
country from the dep
redations of socialistic “deals” and return this nation to the
principles of Constitutional Government.
REPUBLICANS:
Harry Truman has announced that he will not be a candidate—
yet, in the next breath, he attempted to dictate what the people
should do, viz: “I want Democratic senators, representatives
and governors elected ... I will be IN' THERE just the same as
if I were the nominee . . .” In other words, he will attempt to
dictate the “Democratic” nominee, ignoring the voice of the
people at the primaries—primaries are “eye-wash” to Harry—
he said so himself.
REPUBLICANS: Let’s nominate two great patriotic leaders
who have the courage and ability to dash the “fair” deal’s accu
sations back into their faces and, at the same time present a
program of unadulterated Americanism that will stop deficit
spending, lower vicious tax burden, revitalize and encourage
private enterprise—the backbone of America’s greatness—that
- new payrolls might be created and thus perpetuate the high
standard of living enjoyed by America’s working people. Lead
ers who WILL NOT send our boys into Unconstitutional “police
actions” to fight and die simply to continue a false war economy
that the nation might revel in a war-boom prosperity.
It’s high time that young men of America again have their
God-given, Constitutional right to chart their own careers, rath
er tha nhave those careers blasted by war, more war and idiotic
“police actions.” I FAVOR GENERAL EISENHOWER.
In my 35 yeas of newspaper experience this is my first at
tempt to seek political office. Should the Republicans of this
district honor me to represent them at the convention, I pledge
myself to abide wholly by the will of the Republican voters of
Oregon. One major trouble in our country today is having poli
ticians who pledge themselves to the people and then “go their
own selfish way,” ignoring the voice of the people. I will co
operate with the Oregon Delegation at the convention—so long
as that delegation “hues-to-the-line” as instructed by the Re
publican voters at the Primary. I will not be caucused into
changing my vote, unless there Is no other alternative.

Onthank Advises
Students Going
In Service Soon
Men — arc you worried about
what you will do when you get out
of the service?
The graduate placement service,
Emerald hall, has a solution to
your troubles. Karl Onthank, direc
tor, says that graduates .should
regard their time spent in the arm
ed services as only “time out” from
their civilian career, and should
make suitable contacts before they
leave and plans to keep in touch
with these contacts while in the
service.
Many employers, faculty mem
bers and business firms agree that
men going into the service should
in general, look for suitable em
| ployment pretty much as usual, he
said. Most firms are interested in
them even though they may soon
leave for service, and will give
them training and experience while
they are available and welcome
them back from service later, On
thank explained.
He said that men going into the
service should proceed just as they
would if they were going to be
available for jobs now. They should
register and leave their credentials
in the graduate placement office
so that the office can help them
most effectively now and later, and
I particularly so that they will have
i opportunities waiting for them
■ when their time in the service is
completed, he asserted.
