CASS COUNTY'S DIG COAT OTOIXE
In the village of Avoca, last eve
ning there va3 organized a Roosevelt-Bryan
club. Tho first hour of
the meeting was devoted to speaking
in which was presented the excellent
qualifications of Governor Roosevelt
for the presidency. Hi3 broad visions
of public affairs and his sound and
expressed clan when president, to
co-ordinate all the producing factors
of tlie nation to bring back that
prosperity which is eo essential to
our people. Throughout the village
there appears to Be a strong under
current, that the only possible re
lief to the citizens of the nation, is
through the election of the demo
cratic national ticket.
The state issues were discussed
and the outstanding administration
of tho affaire of Nebraska, contrast
ed with those of the surrounding
states. The great savings to the
people made by Governor Bryan
since he entered that office in Janu
ary. 1931. were related. How he!
forced specifications for tubing in
the roads that were being improved
by the state from one specific kind
that was patented, to several kinds
of tubing equally as good, thus giv
ing all contractors an equal oppor
tunity to bid. Theretofore the fed
erai government would furnish no
money to that part f the road con
srtruction a.s it considered the using
of the patented tubing gave an un
fair advantage or monopoly to th
contractor who was interested in the
making of the tubing. After the gov
ernor had this 'change 'made, the bids
were about one half the price of for
mcr work and tho federal govern
lent paid one half of the reduced
bid, thereby making a saving to the
people of the stale of several hun
dred thousand dollars. This was only
one of the instances enumerated
wherein the governor had saved
large sums of money for the people
His strong business methods in let
ting the large road construction con
tracts, raved millions of dollars to
the road fund and out or which hun-
ureds of extra miles of road were
constructed, gravticd and paved.
Among the roads so built from thi
saving was No. 1, extending west
through Murray to Murdock and
Elmwocd; also No. 50 extending
from Omaha south through Louis
ville, Manley, Weeping Water and
Avoca in this county and on to the
south line of the state. Without re
gard to politics, the people gener
ally of Avoca precinct appreciate
the services rendered by our gover
nor, and being -broad minded, will
not forget that service on November
8th.
Congressman Morehead was high
ly commended for his courteous and
business like method3 in office. Hi
promptness in answering every In
quiry about matters at Washington
has endeared him to a large num
bcr of his constituents without re
gard to party affiliation. His stern
rugged honesty and kind ways ha
endeared him to our people in Cass
county and bespeaks for him an in
creased vote at the coming election
After the speaking foiiowed the
organization cf the club by selecting
th 3 following officers: Dr. J. W
Erendel. president; Georg3 Peters
vice-president; Mrs. Emma Rawalt
secretary and Max Straub, treasurer
The club thereupon decided to have
another meeting at a date to be
named where a prominent speaker
could be obtained.
