ley below.
Oft times a man takes a
position all by himself. He plants
his feet on solid earth above the
herd, preferring a trail of soli-
tude with a clear conscience, to
a broad road and company going
the wrong way.
That requires courage.
Many’ people had rflfher be with i
nn unsound majority than with a I
righteous minority. They keep an
ear to the ground seeking the
strong rather than the virtuous.
Numbers mean more to them than i
principles. They want to he on
the popular side whether it is in
the dust with devils or in
starlight with angels.
No greater surrender is
made than when the so’d yields
right to might.
The other day “the grand old
man" of France, who had long
stood for freedom and honor laid
down the Cross weary, discourag-
ed. conquered.
Petain was a hero but he had
a bayonet to his back and dis-
loyal countrymen extinguished the
lights on the road ahead. The
vulture won overthe eagle and
France died.
The tree on
bill crashed to earth,
try for which America had bled
and sacrificed, turned away and
fell upon her own sword.
Pierro Laval shool^ all

crown of unforgiveable shame for
a once brave people.

♦hronghout the five conn*i'« which
- ‘inij«P the 15th Senatorial Dis-
trie' I am lierebv announcing my
candidacy for nomination for the
office of State Senator of t h e
15th Senatorial District hy
Democrat party voters in
nrimarv election to be held
■Lily 25, 1942.
: The decision on mv part
inspired by my desire to
inv District and my State, audit
j was concluded by my firm h<di. f
T! ei>s”.wF of others !,hat di’ring the stirring times
i ahead many changes must be made
I in the method in which onr leg-
. |islature has functioned during the
’ past several years. I am con-
vinced that if we are to win th”
war we are engaged in, that the
log-rolling tactics of profession:'!
politicians in our state legislat-
ture must givo way to honest, ef-
ficient and patriotic i t forts *o
ieliminate all legislation not ab-
[soliitely imperative to the ctr'-y-
ing on of the necessary
of state government, so t’ml
every resource and every possibi 1
help may be given hy our legis-
lature to hacking np onr men in
the armed forces of our country.
When a man, even in answer to
the call of his fellow citizens, an-
nounces for public office, all of
the citizens and voters whom he
aspires to represent have a right
not only to know who he is, hut
also what he stands for and what
they may exp< ct when they elect
him.
T am a citizen and taxpayer of
Hemjistead in Waller County. 1
am 38 years old. a member of th”
Presbyterian Church and a lawym
by profession.
During my barefooted boyhood
days I lived on a farm and at-
tended a country . school, after
which I finished high school and
then completed mv legal training
in Lyola University at New Or-
leans. I worked my way through
six years of college ami law-
school training.
Since 1933 1 have piacticed law-
in Hempstead and am a member
of the American and Texas State
Rar Associations. From 1935 to
1940 I served as City Attorney
[of Hempstead, and have been
; Democratic County Chairman for
Waller County since 1936.
According to my w-ay of think-
ing onr country has grown a n <1
prospered under our present fonn
nf government which was founded
on the principle that “all men
are created equal.’’ This in
practice means that everyone of
us ha« the right not only to as
nire to public office, but to he
nleeted and to sene. This right,
which I am exercising in this
announcement, is one of the rights
that dictators abroad deny to the
peoples whom they govern, and
which self-appointed dictator* nt
home w’onld like to deny to any-
one who dares oppose them.
When you elect Han’ey Bette
