A11 persons indebted to said estate will please make immediate payment. This the 21st day of October, 1922. W. A. MANLEY, . RUFFIN MANLEY. Administrators, Murfreesboro, N. C. D. C. BARNES, Attorney. ^ 10-27-22-6t. 1 - - ? -1 To t^o Voters of The First Congressional District of I North Carolina As the Republican nominee for Represent*tire in Congress from the Pirst Congressional District I am asking for the suppbrt of the voters-of the District , It is impossible to see each voter in person, therefore, I am using this means to give yon some reasons why, as a Representative of a great National Party, you should support me and at the same "time bring to your attention my personal view on some of the questions that will come before the next Congress for settlement For forty-six of the last sixty-two years the Republican Party has been in control of the National Administration and Congress, and no other sountry in the history of the world has made suhh rapid strides in prosperity and influence as has been made by it The policy at all times has been "The greatest goqd to the greatest number of people." ? . On March 4, 1921, aftef a Democratic Administration of eight years the Republican Party took charge of both the Legislative and Executive , branches of the Government, being elected for the purpose- by an over whelming majority of the voters of the country. At that time was found a national bonded indebtedness of twenty-three billion dollars and on whieh sum there was an annual interest charge of over one billion dollars which interest charge alone was in excess of the total national indebtedness in 1918. ?4*4 In sixteen months, after the Party took hold of the affairs of the Gov ernment, the public indebtedness was reducd by seven hundred million dollars and at the same time taxes were reduced abdut eight hundred million dollars by the new revenue bill, apd ip addition-to this there was a large reduction made in the income tax, the greater part of the saving being saved to what ipight be called the "average man of family." The Republican Administration found the agricultural interests of the .country practically bankrupt, which condition has been overcome since, and the farmers are again as we might say "on their feet." When President Harding was inaugurated Liberty bonds were selling at a discount of fifteen per cent This has been changed, and by July 1st of this year the same bonds were*eelling at par and aSove, increasing the value bf those outstanding 18,000,000,000. i A comparison between the National Administration since the Republican Party took charge, in the matter of taxes and expenses, and that of this state under Democratic control for the same length of time, will not, in' any way, discredit the National Administration. On Inarch 4, 1921,According to the best information obtainable, it was estimated that thire were 6,000,000 wage-earners out of employment, whereas, at the present time even after a coal strike of over five months and a partial railroad strike of two months, there is no complaint of unem ployment On the contrary, in some sections, there is even a shortage of labor reported. At the same time there has been no radical reduction in wages; at least not more in proportion than the cost of living has been reduced. One of the greatest achievements of the Administration has been the Conference for the reduction of armaments which has already resulted in a great reduction of the navies of the Fivt Powers to the treaties which have been made as the fruit? of that Conference. . ' Thi? reduction will, as a matter of common knowledge, reduce the expense of the navy of this country, and will continue to do so during the period covered by the agreement. Notwithstanding the disturbance to business by the coal and railroad strikes, the business of the country, according to all authorities on the subject, is rapidly improving; and, as the tariff matter has been settled business in all lines will continue to improve. Congress has passed, and President Harding has approved, a new tariff law which pcotects not only the manufacturers of the country, but also the farmers, against competition from the products of other countries, that can and do produce their goods with cheap labor. When the factories of the country are running on full time and the wage-earner employed at good wages the farmers are also greatly benefitted. Our Democratic opponents, through the press and on the platform, insist that the Administration of President Harding and the Congress with him, have been a,^failure. But, the news columns of the newspapers that claim this fact in editorials contradict the same. Time alone will increase -the prupf that' the probf Administration is not a failure but events of today indicate that the end. of this year will prove it one of the most successful ita the history of the counfry. . ( This Distinct, for the past forty or more years, has been represented in | Congress, by a member of the legal profession. While this fact is in no way a disqualification for the office, yet the time has come or should come . when thet business men of the District and Country, which includes merchants, farmers, bankers and manufacturers, should have some part in the making of j laws under which the business of the country must be carried on; therefore, as a business man who has been actively engaged 'and connected with business enterprises for fully forty years in this city, I feel that I am compe tent to represent the people of this District and that I am worthy of their support t One of the most important matters to be settled by the next Congress, according to my opinion, will be to make permanent immigration laws to replace the temporary law passed at the last session of Congress. This law should be so framed as to exclude any and all undesirable perons from a physical, mental or political standpoint, and certainly should admit "no one who is not willing to support our Government as now constituted and to obey its laws. I am in favor of any amendment to what is known as the Volstead Act that will better enforce the provisions of the 18th Amendment to the Constitution, and will oppose any that will weaken the law. it seems to be almost the universal opinion that the next Congress will be controlled by the Republicans, therefore a Republican Representative from thl^Distyict will be able to do more for the District than one of the opposition. ? No doubt there will be an effffort made at the next Congress to pass some kind of soldier's compensation, or bonus law. I am in full accord with what has already been done in the way of providing relief of ady kind necessary for those who are disabled; to provide for the dependents of those who made the supreme sacrifice or disabled so that they themselves cannot provide for them; for vocational training for such as will avail themselves of the opportunity to be thus trained, and, for any other relief that may be necessary. I have hadnothing to say about the opposing party; in fact its admin istration of the affairs of this country Is a matter of very recent history and a comparison of * with the party now in power will not, I believe, be to our discredit * If elected, I will support the policies of the Republican Party as far as I can, yet in matters in which Hhis District is primarily interested I will, at all times, support such measures as I believe to be for the best interest of this District and will endeavor not to represent any party or faction, but will represent all the people of the District. t Respectfully, C. E. KRAMER. , Republican Nominee for Congress J frOm the First Congressional District of North Carolina .
