The Fergusons and National Defense
Very few people are discussing politics. Every one is talklngWar.
This is as it should be for the first qualification of good citizenship
is patriotic love for the Nation anji the red-blooded desire to defend
it. Governors may come and governors may go but the first instinct
of every true American will always be to preserve National safety at
any cost.
However, we must soon face the duty of electing a governor and
a legislature to serve during the two st rmy years just ahead. When
a hurricane strikes, only an experienced pilot can guide a vessel
safely to shore In the dark days- before us, only seasoned leaders
should be placed at the helm This is a vital and necessary part
of National defense „
Serving as a war governor Is not a-new'experlence for the Fer-
gusons; it will only be a repetition of similar service rendered dur-
ing the first world war, if w-e are forced into another contest.
With the help of President Roosevelt they ministered to the needs
and suffering of the unemployed in time of peace; by his side they
will meet the problems and the dangers that arise in time of war.
The Fergusons have been weighed in the balance and not found
wanting They have stood the test;-they have kept the faith
