Adv. by County Republican Clnb THE UPPER PENINSULA Pattern for Progress GOVERNOR GEORGE ROMNEY for Governor WILLIAM MtLLIKEN for Lt- Governor ALLISON GREEN for Sec. MEYER WARSKAWSKI IM Attorney GcsenI THE UPPER PENINSULA FOR PROGRESS" is a challenge to mankind's full utilization of its wealth and natural resources. Real progress will come with conversion of raw materials into productions of value. This means increased farm output, enhanced tourism and recreational facilities, more mining and processing, selective logging and industrial expansion all designed for economic stability.

THE PATTERN FOR PROGRESS is manifesting itself in agriculture, in the production of a better quality Russet-Burbank Potato yields up to 784 bushels per acre, and a rich, $1,000,000 harvest in Dickinson county alone. This is enterprise at its best! THE PATTERN FOR PROGRESS is evidenced in new mining techniques, state tax adjustments and investment capital which staved off foreign competition, while recreating a mining industry of full employment and a $100,000,000 production for the Upper Peninsula, THE PATTERN FOR PROGRESS is shaping up in the form of stream improvements, dams, water impoundments and irrigation projects designed for multi-purpose recreational and agricultural uses. More than 20 dams and water impoundments are scheduled for 1963-65. THE PATTERN FOR PROGRESS commenced when the Romney Legislature paid off a $105,000.000 indebtedness inherited from the previous administration. Further impetus to progress was given when a $50,000,000 surplus was established in the State Treasury.

Mental health, Health and Welfare appropriations were increased by $11,000,000 over last year; School Aid was upped by $12.50 per student; Higher Educa- tion'got a boost of $25,000,000 for fiscal 1964-1965; wMIe capital outlay projects gained another $23,000,000. THE UPPER PENINSULA PATTERN FOR PROGRESS deserves a Republican team to help Governor Romney keep Michigan moving ahead. The Upper Peninsula needs a Republican Legislature to re-write Jhe Democrat-sponsored apportionment plan, belatedly ordered into effect by a Democrat-influenced State Supreme Court Be sure vote for the party of performance vote Republican This message sponsored by Republican County Committees OF THE UPPER PENINSULA OF MICHIGAN Chippewa County Republican Committee, Bernard Doll, Chairman (Tilt AdT.)
