Test yourself: Whatsoever thy hand find eth to do, do it with thy might.—Eccl. 9:10. WHAT DOES ONE VOTE IN CONGRESS MEAN? Less than two months before our nation was attacked by the enemy, the U. S. Congress passed a bill to extend the selec tive service by the margin of ONE VOTE. Before that just EIGHT VOTES were needed to pass the bill to fortify the Pacific outpost of GUAM—-the passage of which may have saved the lives of some Marines and surely would have saved this important naval base when we need it most. ONE MAN in the United States Congress can determine the issue between progress and reaction—between Victory and Defeat—yes, between life and death. The next Congress will fight this war and may very well be the CONGRESS THAT WILL MAKE THE PEACE. Will the common people, the workers and their families be represented in the councils of the great when the fate of FUTURE GENERATIONS IS BEING DECIDED? OR—WILL THEY AGAIN BE SOLD DOWN THE RIVER INTO “MORMALCY” AS THEY WERE AFTER THE LAST WAR? Will they again want to put “labor back in its place”— they,’who have been yelling themselves blue that President Roosevelt was destroying the integrity of Americans because he was feeding the hungry ? WHO WILL DRAW THE PLANS FOR THE WORLD WE MUST LIVE IN? Will we lose by ONE VOTE? Will we lose by EIGHT VOTES? This is much bigger and far more important than the per sonalities and the individuals involved. If the Democratic candidate for Congress in this 10th North Carolina District were only a “run of the mill” Demo crat, who had supported Presirent Roosevelt for 10 years, every man and woman worker in the district could do not less than vote for him without any hesitation. BUT—WHEN THAT SAME CANDIDATE HAPPENS TO BE A PERSONALITY SUCH AS CAMERON MORRISON, a former Governor of our State, a former United States Senator —an elder statesman of North Carolina—then this district and its voters are doubly fortunate. Men and women of organized labor know how CAMERON MORRISON stands on labor—we know how he stands on the prosecution of the war—and we know how he stands on the peace that is to follow the Victory. We know how he stands on all these matters of bread and butter and life and death matters because he has given us the one clue necessary to arrive at the answers—CAMERON MOR RISON HAS BEEN BEHIND PRESIDENT ROOSEVELT FOR TEN YEARS. He has seen clearly through all the problems of our chang ing world and his silver hair and silver tongue will grace this office and do honor to our people as the people will do honor to him by OVERWHELMINGLY VOTING FOR HIM ON NO VEMBER 3rd. We urge the support of all for Cameron Morri son for Congress. AFL To Investigate Shipyard’s Loss Of U. S.

CAMERON MORRISON Political AdvcrtiMBWiit A MESSAGE OF COMMON SENSE FROM CHAS. A. JONAS Republican Candidate for Congress 10th District f r In this darkest hour of our national existence when our traditions, our freedom and our very lives and homes are being assaulted by vicious and deadly enemies, it is time for the people of our nation to return to the simple faith of our childhood. At our mother’s knee and in the little country churches we were taught that there is a GOO who watches over the destinies of our men. Though our faith be sorely tried and our hearts troubled, we must cling to that elemental truth until this scourge passes. We know that our form of Government is the finest the mind of man has ever de HON. CHAS. A. JONAS vised. We know that our system of free elections and open discussion and patriotic criticism where the welfare of our nation is involved—those are the rocks upon which our greatness has been built. We know that in the end right will triumph, evil will be uprooted and truth will prevail, and that THE TRUTH WILL SET US FREE. To these simple principles I dedicate my experience, my services and my devotion. CHAS. A. JONAS FOR CONGRESS ltth District
