Harding and Coolidge
AND
Good Government
TO THE AMERICAN VOTER:
Are you satioficd, even content, with existing conditions of life? '
Of course you are not
You are burdened with taxation and the high cost of living.
For everything entering into your duily life you are paying an ab
normal price an unprecedented price.
Why?
Largely, if not altogether, becnupe of the extravagance of government
at Washington because of padded payrolls because of colossal wasto
following the war because of looseness, laxity, inefficiency and incom
petency in handling the country's affairs.
You are paying the bills for all this you, Americans, men and
women, who make up the good citizenship of this nation.
You are paying, and paying dearly, for nil this.
Your Liberty Bonds those I. O. U's of Uncle Sam in which you
Invested so proudly, so generously, so patriotically, to help win the war,
arc today below par. You made sacrifices, some of you, most of you, to
buy them, and now, with the war long over, but with peace not yet fully
established, you must make further sacrifices, if compelled to sell those
Liberty Bonds, in order to meet the abnormal conditions confronting you
and entering into your daily life at every turn.
Think of the tragic climax thus put upon your patriotism!
WAR MEANS WASTE. WAR IS WASTE. BUT WAR WASTE
SHOULD HAVE ENDED WITH THE ENDING OF WAR. It did not
end then it has not ended. It hai gone on prodigally shamefully.
And you, long-suffering American citizens, are paying the bill paying in
taxes and high cost of living the price of it all.
Is it not time to call a halt high timo?
A Republican Congress curtailed governmental extravagance to the .
extent of TWO BILLIONS or more reduced the department estimates
to that extent in spite of the resistance and obstruction of the Wilson
Administration. Think of that! But that was just the beginning of re
trenchment and reform which cannot be effected fully until the Executive
and Legislative departments of the government are working together ef
ficiently and In unison to bring about retrenchment and reform. And this
means A COMPLETE CHANGE AT WASHINGTON the substitution of
efficiency for inefficiency, capacity for incapacity, all along the line.
Then, and then only, will you be relieved of the burdens you are car
rying today.
You are hearing talk about America's duty to the world. Much of
it is intended solely for campaign purposes and is as full of deception as
the cry, "He kept us out of war," the Democratic slogan of 1916, when
the Administration at Washington knew full well that no power under
Heaven could keep us out of war, and that, in fact, at the very moment,
when an election was being scantily won by false pretences, the Nation
was even then virtually at war.
America do her duty to the world!
When, pray, did America ever fail to do her duty her full duty
In any crisis or contingency affecting mankind? Never!
And America can be counted upon as confidently in the future as
she has been counted upon in the past.
AMERICA IS A DUTY DOING NATION. Any suggestion to the
contrary whatever the individual view as to the adjustment of world
affairs, whether through a League of Nations or not is an affront to
every true Ametican and must be dealt with as such.
The Republican Party pledges you Good Government. It pledges
to you efficiency, economy, courage and the square deal. It pledges you
an American government the sort of government that a long and illustri
ous lino of Republican Presidents have given this Republic.
DO NOT ALLOW YOUR COMPLETE CONFIDENCE IN THE
RESULT TO KEEP YOU FROM THE POLLS ON ELECTION DAY.
Do your duty as a citizen an alert, wide-awake, American citizen
just as America has ever done and will continue to do her full duty as
a nation, and thus will you help to put your Uncle Sam's house in order.
Vote for HARDING and COOLIDGE and a REPUBLICAN CON
GRESS on November 2, and all will be made well.
HARDING and COOLIDGE MEAN GOOD GOVERNMENT.
And GOOD GOVERNMENT is what we all need and must have.
