REPUBLICANS-
DON'T SEND A "CHAIN GANG"
TO THE NATIONAL CONVENTION
Power-hungry politicians, seeking to control the Oregon delegation to the Na
tional Republican Convention are throwing the full force of their machine into at
tacking the eight so-called "petition" delegates.
The fact is that these delegates filed under provisions of the law designed to
protect the public under just such conditions as we have in the State of Oregon
today.
Petition Method Protects The People
The Oregon Direct Primary law under which these eight delegates filed by
petition, seeking election as free delegates, not under control of the slate political
machine was initiated by the people and adopted in June, 1!)04 by an overwhelming
vote.
In 1915, the state legislature amended the original law to provide an "additional
method" for selecting delegates without in any way supplanting or disturbing the
traditional and time-honored piethod of filing by petition.
In 1916 this amendment was carried to the State Supreme Court which ruled
that the amendment "afforded another method (additional to the petition mehod)
for candidates to get before the voters", leaving the original petition method un
changed and intact.
Protects Against Machine Politics
In 1939, the legislature passed a law taking from the people the privilege of
naming their own delegates to the national convent ions. The law was referred to the
people, who rejected it, choosing to leave both the petition method and the declara
tory method on the statute books.
The petition method of filing Is therefore a valid law for the specific purpose of
protecting the public against machine politics such as we have in the state today.

VOTE FOR THE PETITION DELEGATES!
The Oregon Primary this year is not representative because it does not give the
voters a chance to vote on all the avowed candidates and lists several who claim not
to be candidates. Don't tie the hands of the Oregon Delegation to the National Con
vention ELECT the eight uncontrolled petition delegates.

"Am I
supposed to be
glad you're big?"
Many people write us such comments as
this: "I've heard people talk against big
companies like you. Lately I've been read
ing your statements about bigness. Am I
supposed to be glad you're big?"
The answer to this question depends on
your answer to certain others. Some people
have come to feel that bigness itself may
be bad. Consider the good that comes from
this same bigness.
Do you like a bargain? You're getting one in
gasoline. Except for taxes, gasoline today costs
just about what it did in 1925. (And it's better
gas; 2 gallons now do work that then took 3.)
Why? Largely because of competition among big
oil companies.
Do you like new and better things? Standard
has spent over $35,000,000 on research and tech
nical service in the last 5 years, developing new
or improved products, and new raw materials
for other companies. Yet only when allowed to
grow big, by serving you better, can we take on
the work and risk involved.
Do you want to keep your country strong?
It takes big companies to back our fighting men
and keep defense goods in full supply. Standard
is at work for our government on aviation gaso
lines, atomic research, synthetic rubber, and
other vital projects.
Are you glad you have the conveniences of
this 'machine age?" They depend heavily on oil.
You re assured an ample supply of oil by the en
terprise of big companies like Standard. We seek
out new crude reserves, in this country and
abroad, with exploration that may cost millions
before the first gallon is found.
