Having earned my living with my own hands I cannot have other than the greatest sympathy with the aspirations of those who toil, Our purpose is to build in this nation a human society, not an economic system. Appointive office, both North, South, East and We3t, must be based solely on merit, character, and reputation In the community in which the appointee is to serve. Participation of women In poli­ tics means higher standards. Our workers can buy two and often three times more bread and butter than any wage earner in Europe. By blood and conviction I stand for religious tolerance both In act and in spirit. Our foreign policy has one pri­ mary object, and that is peace. Government should not engage In business in compotition with its citizens.

We want you to see it— watch it in the field or at the belt—you Will be surprised at the power of the John Deere Model D Tractor This 15-27 H. P. tractor weighs only 4.000 pounds— power ordinarily wasted in moving excess weight in the field is applied to the draw ­ bar of th e John Deere, The John D eere is h u n ­ dreds of parts simpler—i t ’s th e tracto r o f few er and s tu r d ie r p aits. Fewer moving parts reduce fric­ tion, one of th e biggest p.'wer thieves in any engine. Belt pulley is m ounted di- rectly on crankshaft— no power Iosa. All operating p arts of the John Deere are au tom atic­ ally oiled and com pletely housed In a dust-proof case oiling is positive, d u st and sand cannot get in to cause friction, loss of power, and undue wear.
