;. Tm AnffOMriatkm For Middng
Parity Paymoits To The Farmers?
LET THE RECORD SPEAK:
Recently, 1 advised the FARMERS AND THE
VOTERS OF OUR DISTRICT in a newspaper “RIGHT
THE WRONG” that Mr. Burgin, my opponent in Sat
urday’s primary for Congress, VOTED AGAINST the
Agricultural Appropriation BiH which President
Roosevelt asked Congress to pass which would have
provided $225,000,000 for making parity payments
on tobacco, cotton, wheat, and other crops. The same
bill would have provided for government purchase of
$113,000,000 in Surplus Foods and clothing.
The purpose of this appropriation was to raise Farm Prices
Bid give to the Farmers the help they so sorely need and which they
sac so much entitled to receive. The bill also provided means to .get
zH odf surplus stocks of goods, and to relieve distress among millions
unemployed who would have been given surplus goods and cl''thing.
I stated that Mr. Burgin voted against making such parity paymento,
wUch was a vote against "Hie Farmer, The Unemployed and people in
Ksh^ss.

At this time newspapers of the District and circulars
are being distributed far and wide accusing me of drculalt-
ing false statements against my opponent with reference to
this question. I have bMn accused in these statements of not
telling the truth.
My Farmer Friends and all g^ood Democrats:' I HAVE TOLD
TOR truth. Mr. Burgm has requested the Clerk of the House of
Scpresentatives to give him a letter showing how he voted on this
KhT You will note that Mr. Burgin voted for the Bill for making the
yarity payments, but LATER he voted AGAINST making ,the AP-
FBOPRIATION which was necessary if the payments were ever made.
According to infolmation re
ceived from headquarters for the
60th anniversary celebration to
be held July 1, 3, S, and 4, there
will be many beautiful and inter
esting sights In the celebration
parade.
In addition to the big floats
and other mammoth features, the
celebration headquarters has oth
er interesting plans and has is
sued the following announce
ment:
(1) If Your Child Has a Pet;
Dogs—led by owner and decorat
ed or pulling miniature float*
Ponies—decorated and ridden or
pulling cart, etc. Cats and Kit
tens—dressed up and carried by
owners. Goats—decorated and
led or pulling a decorated con
trivance.
(2) It Your Child has a bicycle,
tricycle, wagon, auto, scooter,
doll and carriage or toy—help
him decorate himself and his ar
ticles.
(3) If you have attractive
flowers, have your little girl car
ry a large bouquet.
(4) If your child has an un
usual balloon or unusual toy,
place It in the parade.
(5) Perhaps your children will
like to dress up in their Indian
costumes, pioneer costumes, cow
boy costumes, or they may dress
as movie stars or clowns; and
the cleverest of all would be to
have them Imitate the funny and
comic strips’ characters, as the
Mummors In the Parade.
Novelties and stunts by persona
of any age will be welcome In the
parade.

UCTTID among the 176 Congressmen WHO VOTED AGAINST THIS
BILL (H. R. 5269).
This Bill was known as the Agricultural Department Appro-
jristions Bill, which authorizes funds for practically all services ren-
Ared by the Agricultural Department to farmers as well as the ?113,-
•W,000 for the purchase of surplus commodities.
Burgin’s vote AGAINST this Bill on FINAL passage is all
ISto more important in view of the fact that the Bill- passed ONLY by
a margin of five votes. The vote Was 180 “Yes,” to 175 “No.”
W’HAT BURGIN REALLY DID WAS VOTE FOR PAYMENT
but OPPOSED APPROPRIATIONS FOR MAKING SUCK PAY
MENTS!
