Chas, on of your candidates for County Com missioner, make the following declaration: I hav been nomin ated by petition by the electors, commonly called. Independent. On my part, as well as thos who hav assisted m in get ting this nomination, there is no ulterior motlv. and I am your candidate purely as a matter of public spirited duty, and to giv th electors another cholc as to tha fitness of th man for this office. Under prevailing, world war conditions, w must b united for the one great purpos of winning this war, and cannot afford to dissipate any of our forces or power, by ptty bicker ings, and catch phrases of politics. To thos that really know me, there is no reason why, that I should go into any xtndd argument as to my qualifications. For those who do not know m, I will stat briefly, that I have the equivalent of a university ducation, though not a graduat of any college, except th university of "Hard Knocks." I have a certificate to practice law, both in California and this state. I have business qualification for public srvic, and served thirteen years in the U. S. Internal Rvnu, and Ineom Tax work, and was your County Commissioner from 1933 to 1940 inclusiva. . Sine I have been engaged In my own business, I hav mad a success of same, and do not hav to depend on public offlc for a living, but I do want to serve you and. fl confidant that I can do tha job, better than either of my opponents. In turn, they can and should, it appears to m, do th other work that Is equally important and which thay can do bettr' than I could. On this basis, I ask your wall considered judgment, and your support on next Tuesday. Vot 28 X Wm. F. B. Chas, Inde pendent. (PAin APV.)
