(Paid Political Advertisement) , LET’S FACE THE FACTS: Marion County is normally Republican. For more than ten years the Coffin machine has kept its stranglehold on the county organization. LOOK AT THE RECORD: ** ! r \ % Since 1928 the Republican party under Coffin leadership has gone down to defeat after defeat. Coffinism and Republican failure have gone hand in hand. MAKE NO MISTAKE: The Republican party cannot carry Indiana next fall unless it carries Marion county. It cannot carry Marion County under a discredited Coffin leadership. 25,000 independent voters and the rank and file of the Republican party demand an end of Coffinism. Nothing but a complete county reorganization, under new and aggressive leadership, will bring a Republican victory. • Such leadership can be found by electing as Republican County Chairman JOHN H. BOOKWALTER. - Remember that you cannot vote directly for Mr. Bookwalter for County Chairman. THe County Chairman is elected, by the precinct committeemen, in convention, after the primary. But you can insure the election of John H. Bookwalter by voting for the right precinct committeeman in your own precinct. • If there is only one candidate for precinct committeeman in your precinct see Him personally and insist that he vote for Mr. Bookwalter. If there is more than one candidate for precinct committeeman see the Republican Reorganization worker, wearing the Bookwalter badge, at the polls. Get from him the name of the candidate pledged to Bookwalter, and .VOTE FOR HIM. ELECT JOHN H. BOOKWALTER REPUBLICAN COUNTY CHAIRMAN LISTEN IN REPUBLICAN TONIGHT AT 9:25 REORGANIZATION WIRE - COMMITTEE This Ad Paid for By the Republican Reorganization v Committee, Harry O.
