'From Business and Commerce Non Partisan New York Magazine.' Fearless men in a party, mer whose honesty and frankness art of the rare quality that command, utmost respect and admiration fa ir the voters who have put them ir office are a constant source nl [-ratification both to the vote-r1 themselves and the party the lead er represents. A man of this type can be of unlimited service end having earned the confidence of the people, is also entitled :r> the re ward of their consistent support. The candidacy for re-election tr Congress of Major A L Bulwinkle. of Gastonia, is on' that deserves the commendation, and the atten tion of the, voters of the North Carolina 11th Congressional Dis trict. Major Bulwinkle achieved dis tinction during his pari, tenure of office for his political acumen and his efforts to bring about legisla tion destined to alleviate economic conditions. In a recent keynote ad dress for the Democratic party. Ma jor Bulwinkle. a staunch party member, scored the Republican re gime during the past; administra tion. charging extravagance in pub lic expenditures in the face of in creasing tax burdens. In his ad dress, Major Bulwinkle discussed what he considered the major is sues facing the next term of Con gress. emphasizing the need for new leadership if the eve- mount ing national debt be kept down. He charged that the 72nd congress should have been called together when the financial panic commenc ed in July 1931 Instead of waiting until the regular session >n Decern ber of that year. President Hoover he maintained, knew that at the time there had been a treasury de ficit of *905.000,000 and was awarf of the conditions which would in evitably follow from the financia panic. Instead of instituting im mediate action the President, ac cording to Major Bulwinkle. waited for months before showing signs ol life In commenting on the candidacj for re-election of Major Alfred L Bulwinkle to Congress, we feel that we are furthering the cause of at exceptionally fine type of man— cne who is Ideally suited, as showr bv Iris past record in office, to re present his state in the nation': legislature.
