IN ENDORSE BOX
irokee County women say about
Box. These are not the sterotyped fulminations of a
professional congjressman-maker like Jaspar, hired
and imported from afar to boost Collins into Con-
gress, but the modest, true and sincere statements of
good women who have known John Box as neighbor,
friend, lawyer, citizen and co-worker for a quarter
of a century.
Judge Box is clean and upright in private and
public life, able in argument, strong in speech.

COLLINS AND BOX AS DEMOCRATS
Collins, while a mature man was trying to ride
into office on other party tickets over the ruins of
Democracy. Box supported James S. Hogg and C. A.
Culberson. Collins urged the election of such as Je-
rome Kearby and Barney Gibbs. Collins changed
his politics And began to run for office on the Demo-
cratic ticket Box continued a Democrat from boy-
hood. As precinct chairman, county chairman at 25,
member of the State Democratic Executive Commit-
tee and otherwise, he worked without pay and with-
out making his convictions a hobby to ride on a life-
long office hunt
Collins’ political life has been a house divided
