Voters on Record, Flynn Says. By EDWARD J. FLYNN
Chairman, Democratic National Committee
The Roosevelt administration stands on its record of accomplishment during the past seven and a half years and its measures for preparedness in the troubled times that confront the United States.That the majority party must always do, and that the Demo cratic party of 1940 1s proud to do. No administration in the history of the United States faced a more critical situation when it entered

Roosevelt administration. No administration in the Mr. Flynn history of the United States ever acted more effec-
than the Roosevelt adminisjration.

What then is the issue upon which the American people will be asked to vote Nov. 5? Merely this: Shall the policies and program of
hands of the man and the party who created and administered
the keeping of a man who indorses the policies and the program and says that he could carry them out better? Shall we sacrifice the training
given to President Roosevelt for the unproven capabilities of a man who has never held public office? Shall we sacrifice the services of a proven captain and crew, who have steered our international re-
| lations through the troubled sea of
existing foreign affairs, for a navigator who has never set out on such a voyage? There can, I believe, be only one answer. Times such as these demand, both for our internal salvation and external safety, that we treasure experience, sound leadership and pxen ability by keeping Franklin D. Roosevelt in the presidency. The American people will, I am confident, give that answer overwhelmingly on election day.

ST. LOUIS, Mo, No. 1 (U.P) .— Mayor F. H. La Guardia of New York accused Republican leaders last night of conducting “a shameless campaign for a shameless candidate” and said G. O. P. campaign workers were passing out dollar bills in Negro districts. He exhibited one of the bills he said had been neatly folded to from the letter “W.” Mr. La Guardia said he had obtained the bill from Secretary Frank D. Sullivan of the Board of Police Commissioners. Hequoted Sullivan as saying the bills were passed out with the admonition, “don’t forget Willkie on election day.”

‘Third Term’ and ‘War’ Head Decisions at Polls, Martin Says.
By JOSEPH W. MARTIN JR. Chairman, Republican National Committee
The NEA Service has asked me to outline briefly the issues involved in ‘this campaign. - I am glad to do this. The outstanding issues are clear. They are: 1. The third term. This means the issue of preserving our constitutional republic. It is the issue of preserving Lincoln's government ‘‘of the people, by the people, and for the people,” as against those who would set up a government by one man — plus a gigantic and wasteful bureaucracy.
Mr. Martin 2. Keep Amer-
ica out of war. This means a national defense ade- | quate to protect this country | against any nation, or any combi- | nation of nations, which might seek | to commit aggressions against us. Also a foreign policy which will not needlessly provoke any other nations into an attitude of hostility or an act of war against us. Willkie will put efficiency into our national defense. He will have a defense on hand and not on order.
Confidence Needed
3. Re-employment of our idle workers in private industry at decent American wages. This involves restoration of confidence in the government on the part of free enterprise; the lifting of needless regulations and limitations from business; the clear definition of limits of governmental competition with private enterprise. Continuation of adequate relief until employment is
4. Farm relief, through the preservation of existing: home markets for American agriculture, and the creation of new markets through the use of farm products as the raw materials for new industries. This field offers tremendous future opportunities for new sources of revenue for American farmers. Also agriculture must have parity.
5. The preservation of the independence of labor, with the retention of all the real gains labor has thus far accomplished. This means | to keep labor free to achieve its legitimate aims through collective bargaining instead of through control and authority of government.
Must Lower Taxes
6. Lower taxes. This involves economy and efficiency in government, which cannot possibly be expected under the New Deal wasteful and corrupt bureaucracy, whose motto is “Tax and Tax, Spend and Spend, Elect and Elect.” 7. The need for national unity which can come only through Wendell Willkie. This means driving subversive forces out of government and out of American life. These grave issues facé this nation for decision on Nov. 5. Their proper solution is vital to the future welfare of this country. Since these issues have all been created by the New Deal administration, it is. obvious that Franklin D. Roosevelt and his administration cannot be expected .to solve them in another four years. This means that the country’s salvation lies in the election of Wendell L. Willkie as Presiden$ of the United States, and a Republican Congress to help him carry out his policies effectively.
TOWNSENDITES BACK G. 0. P. CANDIDATES
LA PORTE, Ind, Nov. 1 (U. P).— Townsend old-age pension clubs of the third Indiana Congressional District have indorsed major Republican candidates for election Nov. 5, Harry McKee of La Porte, district chairman, announced yester-
day. He said the clubs approved Wendell L. Willkie for President, Raymond E. Willis for Senator, Glen R. Hillis for Governor, and Robert A. Grant for Congress. ~ Mr. McKee said there were 41 clubs representing 30,000 members in the three counties of the district. The clubs made no Presidential indorsement in 1936, but indorsed Mr. Grant in 1938. No indorsements
were made for county offices.
