FRIEND TO VALE-OWYHEE
RALPH E. WILLIAMS
To the Editor— Ralph E. Williams
of Portland is a candidate in the
May Primaries for Republican Nat­
ional Committeeman for Oregon with
one opponent.
The people of Malheur County, ir-
xespective of party, are under great
obligation to Mr. Williams for his
work in getting started the Vale and
Owyhee projects. He worked inces­
santly with
Senator McNary and
Congressman Sinnott in Washington
to help us. He urged the construc­
tion o f these projects repeatedly, both
with Secretary Work and the Presi­
dent, and kept on the job with us till
they were put over.
This is the first opportunity we
have ever had to show Mr. Williams
our appreciation of his help, as he
has not had an opponent for several
years. Mr. Williams is now first vice-
chairman o f the national committee,
and you can all appreciate the value
of a man in such a prominent posi­
tion who has our welfare in mind.
I urge every Republican voter in
Malheur County to vote for Mr. Wil­
liams on May 16. His record of ser­
vice for the party, in addition to
what he has
done for you and I
personally, entitles him to your sup­
port. He was first made a member of
the national committee in 1908, 22
