Bayard Clark is an open invitation to thinking men and women of the Seventh District to support him in the coming Primary Election. For 18 years Congressman Clark has worked at his job in Washington, with the emphasis always on work. He has represented his district ably, and has at the same time served his Nation with honor, dignity and efficiency. Through his years of service and his close application to his job he has reached a high place in the councils of his country. He has acquired invaluable knowledge of Congressional procedure and is rated as an expert in charting the course of legislation. Today he is the 37th oldest Con gressman in time of service and as such is now at the point where he will be called upon to assume a type of leader ship that will reflect great honor upon the State of North Carolina. Congressman Clark has served through one of the most critical and trying periods in our National history : Depression, New Deal, prepar edness, war and now reconversion. The citizens of the Seventh Congressional District cannot at this time afford to deprive themselves and the United States Government of the services of this able and diligent public servant.
