And many Others Say To Their Friends, “Let us help do the Jot” “All citizens interested in the future of Omaha should see an advantage in electing four or more "out’' candidates to the city council, in order to control the policies of the council in favor of building Omaha.” Jaimes I-a Hood—'“Roy N. T owl's comeback was not a surprise to anyone. Peaple realized that Mr. Towl’s practical background and his knowledge of civic and muni cipal affairs make him an out standing man to the community. Hi« big vote was not an accident, but a stamp of approval by the pooplo of Omaha who want men such as he to lead them, and make Omaha a better city in which to live.” W. P "Bob” Donahue—“I can pledge all of tjhe seven indepen dent candidates my earnest sup port, and I ask my friends to give their help to electing these seven independent candidates. The seven would givo Omaha a much better city goverment that it has today.” Louis C. Rorsheim—"I want to ck> everything I can in supporting the election of Mr. Towl and six other independent Candidates. I sincerely hope all of them are elected.” Towl Headquarters announced thaa several others among the other losing candidaite, said Towl would receive their personal sup port, but they did not plan to be active in the campaign. Six of the independent candi dates who were losers in the city primary election have joined in supporting the candidacy of Form er Mayor Roy N. Towl and in urg ing their friends to aid in his election. Three of the six request ed friends to support all of the seven independent nominee* The six are George A. Roberts, W. P. "Bob” Donahue, Louis C. Borsheim, Jaimes La Hood, Lieu tenant Colonel Reauben Noel Per ley, and Ross I*. Shotwell. Voters in the primary gave them the combined vote of 16,856. This total is greater than that received by any of the winning candidates below the first three, Trustin, Butler and Kresl. DARK LAUGHTER by 01 Harrington “Mr. Bootsie, a coupl’a gentlemins outchyer wants to see you ’bout sump'n— any* ya better put on ya hat’n coat.” “As goes the second ward, so goes the election.” For thirty-three years this has been the slogan of many Omaha citizens, who are interested in the outcome of an election, and the by word of many candidates. ^ ^ The Omaha Guide is the highest respected publication from a political point of view in the city of Omaha, barring none. We mean just what we say, bar none. 'v: The Omaha Guide is the only Ne gro newspaper in Omaha accepted by the Federal Postal service for legal publications.

Roberts—“I will give my sincere and active sup port to Roy N. Towl as the out standing candidate in ibis oity. : campaign." Robs L. Sbetwell—"I am for i Roy N. Towl, first last and always,! He will have all the support I can possibly give him in this campaign, and I want to ask my friends to arsist in returning him to the City Hall.” Lieutenant Colonel Reuben Noel Perley—‘‘Because of the apathy of the majority of voters and their failure to go to the polls at the primaries, tiro “Machine" candi dates were nominated. Total votes of all '.the “Ins” amounted to 119, 565 and the “outs" who were nom inated had a total of R 1,912. The "outs" who were not nominated had 92,396 votes. It is apparent that if all “out" losing candidates mass their support!! behind itlhe "out” nominees, four new city com- . miasioners can be elected.
