for tho purpose of enabling every
qualified elector of said republican
party to vote his or her preference
for his or her choice for one person
to bo the candidate for nomination
iiy said republican party for the of
fice of president. of the United States.
Hoover was made diroctor general
of relief in Europe, because ho was
tho one man with ability and exper
ience sufficient to meet the vast
problem of food distribution after
the armistice
Hoover was then asked to head the I
conference at Washington studying
tho problems of capital and labor,
because he is the one American who
can command the support of 'all tho
elements involved.
Hoover married an American girl
and sends Ills children to American
schools. (
Hoover has always had a homo in
the United States, and has maintain
ed offices here for about twenty
years.'
In short, Hoover's life demon
strates as his chief characteristics
traits wo have been proud to con
sider typically American:
tllumble birth, ambition, pluck,
porseveranco; professional success
attained in tho faco of discouraging
handicaps; courage,' honor, high
ideals; a mentality alert to recognize
emergencies; decisiveness, foresight,
fairness; sympathy for the unfortu
nate; loyalty to his country and its
people; modesty.
These all must have been in the
inind of Hon. Charles E. Hughes,
when, on February ISth, 1920, he
Bald: "The Americanism of Hoover
is shown in every deed, in every ut
terance. His achievements dignified
the nation and established prestige
for tho American name abroad which
none of tho failures of diplomacy can
obscure. He bears a name illustri
ous becauso of remarkable achieve
ments; but, best of all, It Is a name
untarnished, expressive not only of
exceptional ability but of the simple
lifo of a modest citizen.
In filing the name of Herbert C.
Hoover in the republican primary
election as a candidate for president,
wo take pride and pleasure in point
ing to the fact that ho is a former
resident of tho state of Oregon, hav
ing lived in this stato, at Newberg
and Salem from the ago of ten years
until he left the state at the age of
sixteen lo earn his way thru Leland
Stanford, Jr. university.
He was born at West Branch, Iowa
August 10, 1S?4 of Quaker parents.
Ho was left an orphan at the age of
eight years, moved to Oregon when
ten and began earning his living
'when fourteen.
Ho was graduated from Stanford
university In 1805, when he began
his profession of mining engineer,
working for American firms and at
taining such prominence that his
services were called for in many
parts of the world.
Hoover happened to be In London

Never -tasted any
thing better than

thinlc
I ever will! .. 7)
,at the outbreak of the war. Thou
sands of his countrymen were strand
led ami ho put his personal credit at
i their disposal so they could secure
funds for the voyage home.
: Hoover foresaw the Belgians' star
vation soon after the Germans ad
! vanced and. on his own initiative,
j chartered ships, secured the coopera
tion of the liritish and French gov
ernments, and then secured a popu
lar subscription in tho United States
to start the Ilelgian relief.
Hoover took what promised to bo
the most thankless civilian Job in tho
whole war head of the food admin
istration. Its success depended ab
solutely upon the support or his fel
low citizens. Ho understood them
so well that it became the most ef
fective of war organizations and tho
United States accomplished more
by voluntary effort than other na
tions could do by law.
Ho favors the ratification of the
peace treaty, and tho adoption of tho
League of Nations covenant with
reservations.
In submitting his name as a candi
date for tho preference of Oregon
voters we submit tho following facts:
From n poor Oregon boy he has
risen to be tho greatest administra
tor and executive of modern times.
He is a business and economic
genius and America needs to draft
ills services as president as ho was
drafted for the great humanitarian
work of feeding tho world.
Tho government needs his states
manship and intimate knowledge of
foreign relations in solving tho great
international problems of the future.
The American people need his
sympathetic insight into their needs
and his genius as an economist In
lowering the huge burdens of taxa
tion brought on by tho world war.
The people of Oregon need his
great ability as an engineer, a devel
oper and a builder in solving tho
great problems of the west that re
late to irrigation, drainage and the
proper development of the great na
tional resources of water power, for
ests and mines for the benefit of the
people.
'Wo beg to subscribe ourselves,
your respectfully,
HOOVER HEPllRLICAN CLUU OF
OUUUON.

tors, prospective team members ami
all others who niav have the success
of the movement at heart. Next Sun

ideas regarding the activities.
The. campaign is undertaken to
raise the sum of t:t:t(i.777,f7:2, of
which sum 175,.1S,3 I!) is to be pai.i
this veirr. The ouota for Jackson
county is jf.'OO. The monev will be
applied to the missionary and benevo
lent objects of tho ;10 denominations
participating in the campaign. Uv
this kind of co-operative eampnicn
both in collecting the monev and in
framing Ihe denominational programs
so as not to duplicate or overlap one
another it is claimed lhat a gain of
al least 100 percent will be registered
in church efficiency.
Two-thirds of the population of the
I'nited States is without a regular,
reasonable opportunity of attending
church cverv Sunday. The average
pastor's salary in the I'nited Slates
is !:i7 per year, less than the wages
today of an unskilled laborer ami
more than half the pastors of the
country receive less than $700. Fifty -eiglit
million people, more than half
the population of the countrv. arc
members of no church, and 'Jti.OOO,
000 vonng people under '! years of
age connected with no Sunday school
or other institution of religious in
struct on. In the whole world there
are two non-Christians for every
nominal Christian, and there nre
seven non-Christians for every mem
ber of a Protestant church. At the
present time there is one Protestant
missionary to every a.l.OOO non
Christians. The budgets of the tliirlv denomi
nations co-operating in the inter
church world movement have been
formed on the basis of the world's
needs as revealed hv the surveys, and
the claim is ninde that as n result of
the survey nnd the eo-operativi
scheme of the inter-chiin h movement
the churches concerned are npplvine
lo the tasks before them the methods
of scientific business.
