VOTE REPUBLICAN!
CHAS. D. JONES
Candidate for Senator
Fellow Alaskans:
In asking for your vote
and support in the com
ing election Oct. 14, 1952,
I submit the following
for your consideration:
I believe that from my
life in Alaska; from my
record in the Legislature
in voting for measures
for the best interest of
all of us; from my knowl
edge of the conditions
now confronting us and
honesty and fair dealing; that I have demonstrated imy ability
to represent you.
I am a Republican because I believe in the Individual and
his right to what he produces, subject only to the rights of
others; a government of laws, not men; and of such taxes which
are necessary to efficiently carry on our governmental functions
—but a just and representative government.
I will serve you honestly and will, at all times, be gov
erned by the necessity for and effect of all measures introduced.
I solicit your support for the entire Republican Ticket so
as to be able to pass measures which the Republicans believe
to be for the best interests of all of us.
With abiding faith in. the future of our country and that
we may all prosper with it, again solociiing your vote and
support. Very sincerely yours,
CHAS. D. JONES

AN ALASKAN REPUBLICAN
says ... !
To all Second Division voters, that the present Democratic
administration under President Truman, has left you and four-fifths
of Alaska without any defense whatsoever. Gone the Army, Gone
the Air Force. Left for you alone are high prices, high taxes, low
prices for furs, no reindeer, no planned government work for next
year. For the past 20 years, only Democrats have been in full con- j
trol. Where the tannery? Where the hospital? Where the home for
children? Where the small boat service? Where the roads? Not in
the Second Division, but in the First and Third Divisions, all put
there by Democrats.
Voters, why vote for Democratic candidates who in part, in
: directly receive their salaries from the Federal government and j
who are closely associated and influenced by Federal employes j
and who, should they be separated from present-day jobs, may move
elsewhere and out of this Second Division. Do you want more elected
members of the Legislature who may move from this Division and
represent you while living elsewhere in Alaska? Do you want a
foreign corporation to have a representative in our Legislature? j
One who works for them in executive capacity, il not, then— l
Vote For Republicans — Win With Ike!
