Texas Needs a Congresswoman!
Why A Congress-
Woman?
—because (without excep-
tion) each state which has
sent a Congresswoman to
Washington has never regret-
ted it! The service contribut-
ed by Congresswomen has
been conspicuously brilliant,
.progressive, noteworthy, apd
outstanding—even by mascu-
lin contrast.
—because Houston would
receive exceptionally favor-
able publicity, with a: woman
as re presen tsrtive in Cong-
ress.
—because of a woman’s'
sympathetic understanding,
interest in legislation affect-
ing the home, school and
children.
—because a woman’s view-
point in Congress is neces-
sary on both national and in-
ternational ‘ problems.
—if equally’QUALIFIED in knowledge of governmental problems (as is conceded Mrs. Scruggs)
there is the) happy addition of woman’s intuitive, sympathetic under- ■ , ■'
standing and viewpoint—proved an essential in latter-day American
and European affairs. .... *- ^
—1-there* are 21 male representatives in Congress from Texas—isn’t it
fair—isn’t it equitable (with Woman’s Suffrage extant—and who
would repeal this amendment) that at least ONE woman share na-
tional attention as an accredited, qualified representative, particular-
ly during th&se next several history-making years.
In 1922 as a result of a regret-
ahlr campaign, the husband of
this Congressional candidate led
in votes cast ALL membefs of
the psoedo-ANTI County ticket,
despite fact that Judge Scrugga
led the fight against the fallac-
ious politico-religions heresy then
in the saddle.
ON THE FOREIGN DEBT
PROBLEM
¥ f
There: is no question of the'
legal status of the European debt
to the U. Si. A.
The debts are just and payable..
I will support such recommenda-
tions of the President for negotia-
tions affecting payment, particu-
larly where advantageous foreign
trade concessions may be obtain*
ed for our country.
On Prohibition
I Pledge myself to
vote for
SUBMISSION
of this question to the
electorate through its
legal spokesman — the
State Convention or
legislature.
A Congressman hgs
no further prerogative.
----
THE BONUS PROBLEM
As the wife of an ex-service
man, I would favor payment of
the Soldier’s Bonus, when such
payment can be-made without ef-
fecting current governmental
budgets and without recourse to
any method of currency inflation.
Am sympathetic with special re-
lief for the unemployed, disabled
overseas veterans, when a sound
plan for suen is’ evolved.
THE HOUSTON PORT AND THE ENTIRE CONGRESSIONAL DISTRICT WILL
HAVE A REAL FRIEND AT WASHINGTON IN CONGRESSWOMAN. ..
