Show UTAH LABOR NEWS. SALT LAKE CITY. UTAH, OCTOBER 2, 1936. UTAHS DEMOCRATIC CONGRESSMEN 5 ,MifTiTrrxyyr liberal and progressive party of the state. It is idle and foolish to charge that a Democrat who is in full accord with the administration of President Roosevelt, is reactionary. I have given to this state a liberal, progressive administration. The state has been placed in sound financial condition. Ordinary governmental expenses have been reduced. The property tax burden has been lowered. Every emergency has been given sympathetic attention in the interests of all the people of the state. Of paramount concern now to President Roosevelt and the national administration is the election in Utah of the State Democratic ticket. Only by so doing can this President state fully support Roosevelt and assist in carrying his policies into effect. If the liberal and progressive people of this state divide their allegiance, it will tend to jeopardize that support. Let us wage this political contest by facing the facts, not by raising false and fictitious issues. been the GOVERNOR BLOOD CHALLENGES CRITICS OF HIS' ADMINISTRATION (Continued from Page 2) among the people, particularly ments that there is in fact a Fed- - through liberalizing the sale of eral old age pension act in effect Might beer."
