Where would Oregon and the
less populous Western states
be today had not the U.S. Con­
stitution wisely provided a na­
tional BALANCED PLAN,
giving each state two senators
and apportioning the House
by population? The Oregon
Balanced Plan follows the same
time-tested American principle.

To Democratic and Republican Voters of Curry Co.:
In the Primary Election last May, there was no one
running for Coroner for Curry County. A campaign
for write-in was started, which I i^ever knew until
the day before. The result was that I was overwhelm-
nominated
Republican candidate for that
office and lacked but two votes of getting the Demo-
cratie nomination also.
Since 1 have the nomination 1 would appreciate
it if you voters would carry on through, November|
7th, electing me as your Coroner.
