secution of the war, and during his
term of office has accomplished more
for Oregon than any other member
of Congress In a like period.
Among his colleagues he is known
as "the man on the job," and during
the present war crisis Oregon should
consider Itself fortunate in having
an opportunity to return him and not
be compelled to send to Washing

Believing that the supreme obli
gation he owes his country is to help
win the war, Senator McNary, In

schools; worked his way through
Stanford University; is a lawyer and
farmer and has been a life long Re
publican. He was formerly a Justice
of the Supreme Court and later
chairman of the State Republican

Space forbids further enumeration
of the vast amount of work Senator
McNary has done for Oregon, but
anyone will realize from the forego

remarkable ability, coupled with ex
traordinary diligence and energy.
His native State can best show its
appreciation of his faithful and effi
