Keep a business man on the job.

Send back to Washington a man who has been an administration stalwart, always upholding the hands of the late President Harding and President Coolidge, and their cabinet. Representative Sproul stands on a record of work done, rather than one of promises. Hje has been a close friend and coworker with Chairman Madden of the powerful house appropriations committee in achieving the closest economy in government expenditures consistent with efficient operation of federal activities affecting every community. He has consistently supported the administration program and was influential in the following constructive legislation: Emergency tariff act. When the Republican party came into power in 1921, the Underwood free tariff was in force.

'The emergency tariff act opened the factories and put five million idle men to work. The emergency act was followed by our present splendid tariff law. The national debt has been reduced from something like $26,000,000,000 to a little over $21,000,000,000. Taxes have been reduced for men of small incomes. The classification act which will put all employes of the government on a living wage and remove the evil of lump-sum appropriations, and the opportunity of "playing favorites." This will promote real economy and efficiency in the transaction of public work.

Representative Sproul is in favor of the Mellon tax plan, has been working earnestly with administration leaders for the early passage of this legislation oo vital to the business and financial stability of the country. His zeal have the employes of the postal service given a "square deal" led to his appointment on one of the five great committees in the Office and Post Roads. A. R.
