This record has been presented to the best of my ability at every campaign meeting, and so far it has not been attacked or chal lenged by any one. 'I have also outlined and discussed some definite objectives I have in mind in case of re- election and no one has questioned their wisdom or feasi bility. I worked hard and conscientiously to make the record to which I have referred. The public paid for this experience, which now belongs to all the people of this district. I am offering to use this experience for your benefit. It should be remembered that there is no sub stitute for experience. During the next two years there will be a few and what I consider dangerous proposals that Congress will have to meet. The FEPC (Fair Employment Practices Commission) will again be submitted. It provides that employers will be compelled to employ persons irre spective of race or color. It also provides that persons seeking employment will be compelled to work for or with whom they may be assigned by the commission. The establishment of a permanent government control of pro duction will be another proposal of interest to agriculture and industry, which is considered a dangerous policy to our section of the country. There will be other compul sory proposals in the next Congress and all will be spon sored and presented by men of ability and long experi ence, and unless men of training, ability and long ex perience are elected to the Congress the opposition to these proposals will be helpless. This is, therefore, the time for our people not only to take stock as to the securi ty of their future, but give serious thought in the selec tion of their representatives in the Congress. I am serious in the belief that by reason of my train ing, experience, familiarity with parlimentary procedure, and key positions I am now holding in the Congress, I will be better able to effectively oppose legislation which we consider dangerous to the security of our government. Congress adjourned this last week for the first time in seven years and as a result of its continuous sessions I regret I have not been able to see and meet with the people of my district as much as I would like to have done, but I trust that the confidence you have heretofore reposed in me may be renewed at the coming election.
