L. J. Simpson as a candidate for the nomination for Governor
on the Republican ticket.' Mr. Simpson was urged to become
a candidate by his many frie.Hs in every p;n-t of the state, be

of Oregon's resources, industries and needs; lieeaiise of his
piiblie-fpiriteoncs;;, wiiicii of recent years has led him to tasks
which have been more iniprtnnt to him than Ids own affairs.
L. J. Simpson is clearly the man -who can give
Oregon the - administration necessary to this
plan of National Efficiency.
His campaign will be directed straight to yon as voters, as
individiiiik; who do your own thinking.
We are firmly convinced that you will not allow polities to
influence your decision, and that you will vote for the man who
is best fit to help the people if Oregon develop the stale's vast
resources and to prepare i'or and participate in the great recon
struction that is to follow.
