Mr. and Mrs. Voter, Read the Record - Four years ago Herbert C. Bonner was chosen to rep resent our District in Congress BY AN OVER WHELMING MAJORITY OF THE VOTERS IN EVERY COUNTY IN THE DISTRICT. Daring these four yean, Herbert Bonner has faMM every expectation in the discharge of his duties as a Congressman. He loyally and faithfully supported every bill to further the war effort, and has worked untiringly to promote the well-being and welfare of the people of his District. Especially with regard to Agriculture, his efforts and accomplishments have been outstanding. Herbert Bonner has been faithful to his trust His record is beyond attack. Not once have his opponents dared to publicly attack or question his integrity or his judgment in matters affecting the public weal or interests of his people. He supported and voted for the Case anti-strike bill which would curb-the powers of John L. Lewis. For this vote he has been Mack-listed by Sidney HiHman's Political Action Committee, and by the CJ.O. Are you willing to join hands with such organizations to defeat Herbert Bonner? Will yon cast him aside and vote for a candidate who never has made a single contribution to the welfare of the people *of this District?. Will you again choose a man who has fought your fight, or will you choose a stranger who has never taken the slightest interest in your economical problems until he became a candidate? Will you take the record, or will you be deceived by glittering generalities and vague promises which mean nothing? Read the record, Mr. and Mrs. Voter, and vote for the man who has served you well. Vote for HERBERT BONNER, the candidate of the average citizen. (This space contributed by the Pitt County friends of Herbert Bonner) OF A BICYCLE SAFETY CAMPAIGN ?IN THE Chief of Police L. T.
