In these days ot political ac tiv ity w ith so-called e x p e rts giving the
low-down on all th e can d id ates and th e ir possibilities, I have a sort
of feeling th a t som e of the a m a te u rs, w ho m ake up th e la rg e r sh a re
of out population, w ould like to pu t in th e ir
tw enty-five cen ts w o rth also but lack th e o p ­
p o rtu n ity of g e ttin g th e ir w ords in p rin t
W ith th a t idea in m ind as well as th e sel­
fish one of desiring to know ju st w hat people
a re thin k in g ab o u t the cam paign, I have decided to
a sponsor a contest all by m yself N a tu ra lly . I am
1 not in a position to offer a television set to th e win-
H ne) ; in fact, I can
annot o ffer a governm ent office as
¿Vj first prize, hut I c an go so fa r as to send five dol-
■ lai
■
o each of th«' tw o w inners.
T he plan I have in m ind is th a t I w an t all
re ad ers of th is colum n to w rite m e a le tte r
telling m e w hy they th in k S tevenson is th e
can d id ate who should be elected o r a le tte r telling w hy th ey th in k
E isenhow er should he elected. No le tte r should exceed 250 w ords
in length and m ust be m ailed no la te r th an O ctober 10.
T h ere will be tw o w inners, th e one who d o 'S the best job of su p p o rt­
ing E isenhow er and the one w ho most ably defends his choice of
Stevenson. F ancy w ritin g is not necessary. I will be the sole judge
and my decision will be based on th e sim ple, sincere and sound
a rg u m e n ts advanced for th e respective candidates. In addition to
the five dollars aw arded, th e w inning le tte rs will be ru n as guest
zolutnns in th e 14 O regon w eekly new spapers th a t p rin t this colum n,
F o r W hat I t ’s W o rth .”
M any of you have been sto rin g up steam for m onths now as fa r as
your political beliefs a re concerned; now is y o u r o p p o rtu n ity to put
them down in black and w hite. J u s t w ritin g them down so you
yourself can see them m ay heli) you in m ak in g your final decision.
