Show A NOD H ,,i A NUDGE Well, sir, General Dwight Eisenhower Eisen-hower has been nominated for the presidency of the United States on the Republican ticket. That is good. It removes the situation from the hands of politicians, puts it into the hands of a man who is a military man. The politicians have accomp. lished much, world wide speaking but they have cost us much. We know the military is costly, but we know it is a necessary expense. ex-pense. We hope, with Gen. Eisenhower's background, that those who would be aggressive will be more than slightly taken aback. We hope with Gen. Eisenhower's experience that he will organize Continued on Page 8 ing (without being taxed out of exstence), tells the employer he must not abuse but must help take care of those persons who are gainfully employed by him. We have no gripe with a government govern-ment which sees to it that its hardworking farmers are making a living. We are certainly for the working man making an honest and comfortable com-fortable living. We definitely are for FREE AMERICAN ENTERPRISE which gives every citizen the right to work for himself and his fellow Americans for his better way of life and theirs. ROD -'N-HUDGE Continued from Page 1 and surround himself with brains, help and skill that will take the gravy train riders out of government, govern-ment, and keep only the absolutely abso-lutely necessary persons to operate the business of the United States. We know that there must be a change. We feel sure Dwight Eisenhower Eisen-hower can make it. But it will take vigilence on your part and ours to see to it that Dwight Eisenhower or anyone any-one else does a job you and we expect the President of the United States to do. Therefore, Gen. Eisenhower should have a Republican Congress. Con-gress. He should have not only the leadership of the executive branch of government which he and young Dick Nixon (as vice president) can. give. He needs a Republican congress, both senate and house. Our first thought should be for those who are in congress who are doing a job. We know that Sen. Arthur V. Watkins has been a champion for reclamation, the veterans, vet-erans, for the west and for many, many another thing that is good. As yet, we have never heard of Sen. Watkins being identified with anything that wasn't for the best good for the most people in the west. But only this week Marriner Eccles, former chairman of the federal reserve board and without doubt one of the best financial checkbrains on mad public spending spend-ing and inflation when he was in the saddle, announced he would like to be the Republican senatorial sena-torial nominee. So did C. Cash Rampton, Salt Lake banker and public figure, and Bill Baker, of Orem, who has had political ambitions, not only this year, but for many years, without success. At the same time, your very good friend and ours, Ray Free has announced he would run for a seat in the Utah House of Representatives. Repre-sentatives. Now we all know Ray for his public spirit, his do something now ideas, his positive stand on things that are important to you and to us, so we think he should be given your vote and ours. Soon candidates will be setting forth their best points and their personal abilities. But you and we should look to more than what they hand out. We should dig into the real conscientious character of the candidate. We should see just what his metal is. We should find out whether he has good thinking on his side for the government, gov-ernment, whether he is for handouts hand-outs to farmers, workmen, business, busi-ness, or whether in truth he is for good old American enterprise which makes men individuals, keeps them respectively respectful, gives them the priviledge of using their own initiative, offers them the right to make their own liv- |
