This week we would like to give B our view of the hope that lies in the Republican Party. g We believe the ('lection of Mr. Dewey will provide real B m leadership in foreign affairs and create sorely needed unity n at home. H B There is very little difference in the views of Mr. Dewey M and Mr. Roosevelt as to what is necessary for a lasting Eg peace. The difference is in the method of achieving that B m goal. Mr. Roosevelt i.s attempting to reach it by secret " negotiations with Stalin and Churchill. Mr. Dewey believes B oace is a matter which should be discussed with all na- tions, large and small. Mr. Roosevelt will not permit mem- H bers of the United States Senate to attend his secret meet- B ings. Mr. Dewey believes we should follow the Constitu- B tion, which provides that all treaties will foreign nations shall bo approved by the Senate. Mr. Roosevelt will not " tell us, as Churchill tells the English Parliament, what goes on in these meetings. Mr. Dewey believes lasting peace B can come only when our people are informed of the condi- g tions, and when our treaties are backed up by an informed and sympathetic public opinion. Mr. Roosevelt believes he 31 should make all decisions and ignore his Secretary of State. ! Mr. Dewey believes he should conduct foreign affairs through " the Secretary of State, who exists for that very purpose. Isn't it easy to see a great difference in the attitude of the candidates on these matters? That's why it's time for a change. At home, th crying need Is for someone who can unite out country, for Someone who can bring Bl harmony and peace from our present chaos, for " mnneono who can restore confidence in our gov- g eminent, for someone who will throw out the Com- munists and the labor racketeers, for someone who jg will tell the Sidney Hillmans that there will be jl no strikes in wartime, for someone who lias, mot been in office so long that his freedom of action is honimed in on all sides by obligations to this " group or that, for someone who believes in the B Bl American way of doing things, and above all for elomooiie who cam generate the cooperation and en- jf tliiLslasm of industry so that we will have full em- g ployment after victory. B Mr. Dewey realizes that when the war is over, the m M big task ahead is to create full employment at home by a stimulating our industries, our farms, and our factories. He M knows it is the only way to pay our heavy debts, to make jobs, to have good times. He believes in production, not m scarcity; in private enterprise, not a government dole; in B individual initiative, not direction by a bureaucrat; in creating wealth and not destroying it. m fl We must remember that the next administra- Hon will be largely a peace-time administration. We must remember, too, that Congress right now Is hostile to the New Deal, and that if the latnning m row between the President and Congress continues, B as it likely will if Roosevelt is re-elected, there can be no unity at home. That's) why it's time for a change in our Senator and Representative. We meed ' men who will be with the majority. We need men " of the same political faith as Dewey. We meed a Bl winning team, and not members of a team who m M are working at cross-purposes. M In our state government, J. Bracken Lee is sorely needed. His campaign is based largely on two propositions: g That the governor has no right to take away from the leg- a islature, as Mr. Maw has done, the spending of state money g for his own purposes, and that there is so much bureau- g . cracy, politics, waste and extravagance in our state gov- ernment that he can eliminate those things, reduce state taxes and still have the old age pension and the other B worthwhile services we now have. He cannot understand, a and many other people cannot either, why our state ex- B pense under the New Deal has jumped from $18,000,000 to B a $38,000,000 a year, or what is being done with the money. a There is as much reason for a state house cleaning of the H New Deal as there is for a national house-cleaning. There H is more, because Mr. Maw cannot seize on the handy argu- B ment that he is needed to win the war or write the peace. H m In our legislative offices (State Senator and State Rep- B resentativel we believe we need the Republican candidates B because they are both ex-service men. They are the men g B we need to help solve the problems of our returning service B men, and to help fit the service men and all our people a back into normal conditions. SB Our county commission has been Democratic for many a years. The theory of our government is to have a change a of administration often enough to keep our officials close a to the people. We believe in the county commission, too, B "IT'S TIME FOR A CHANGE". B a The future looks much brighter to us with a a change of officials, a change of viewpoint, a change in what we have had for the past two or three years. We have been going down a path that leads B to one-man government, to bankruptcy, to putting B the Sidney Hillmand in the saddle, to bureaucrats, g Si to waste and extravagance, to creating hate of M business men and industry. We need unity at a home, we need jobs after victory. We need to -jj return to the American way of doing things. That's why it's time for a change. B M a (Paid Pol.
