ITO TIE VOTERS OF FIRST
CONGRESSIONAL DISTRI
In submitting my name tn be voted
on at the general election next Tues
day, Nov. 2nd., I invite the closest
investigation of my record as a citizen
and public official, as I have lived in
southeastern Nebraska for more than
forty years, furnishing opportunity
for the voters to fifind out as to my:
capabilities and dependability.
If re-elected, I will have advantages
of committee assignments that a one
or two termer does not have. Eastern
and southern states re-elect their
members for many terms, when they
have proven worthy. Speaker Long-'
worth of Ohio has served for twenty
two years. The Republican floor,
leader. Congressman Tilson of Con-
nectirut, has served fcr sixteen years.'
The Democratic speaker, Mr. Gar-,
rett, cf Tennessee, has served twenty
two years. Representative, the Demo
cratic floor leader, has served for.
twenty-four years. Many other mem-(
bers have served a like period or long-i
er, thus giving the long termers an
advantage over members of one or twe
terms of committee assignments and;
otherwise. !
During my service as State Senator,
as well as Congressman, I have never
missed a session nor a vote on any
question up for consideration. If
members are absent and not voting,
their districts are without representa
tion. Individuals or corporations de
siring special legislation or appro
priations are always present as well
as employing the best talent money
will secure.

meet Mrs. Bauerle's brother, Curtis,
from Lincoln at the train; and they
surprised him by taking him as their
only witness to the happy event.

scarcely need to speak of them as

If re-elected, I will continue my
efforts to have Rules of House amend
ed so as to force all members on rfc
ord on all legislation and appropria
tions. Such a rule would prevent reck
less appropriation of large sums of
money without justification as mem
bers could not then absent themselves
when important legislation was up
for consideration. The people would
have a check on their representative
as to his attendance and his vote.
Members who take their duties seri
ously should favor such a rule as it
would prevent unscrupulous politic
ians from placing their congressmen
in an embarrassing position during
campaigns by misrepresentation.
I have never accepted contributions
to my campaign fund. I have prefer

science dictates, with a view only to
