I realize that there are those who would y^>te against a man because I
was for him. If these votes would exceed the votes of my friends who have
some respect or regard for my judgment, I should shut my mouth on the
subject j ^ut we all are possessed of a certain amount of vanity and I believe
that I have more friends than enemies.
@ I believe that my idlenesk and time to read the papers and sttidy the situ-
ation enables me to know what candidate is the best for the people. From a
personal standpoint it would make no difference to me, but I believe in cer-
tain things that would 1$ for the benefit cf the average citizen, and my in-
terest in the welfare of the average citizen and our people and the meek aniL
lowly impels me to speak in this free-for-all race coming up soon to select a
United States Senator to take the place vacated by Price Daniel.
I have not been deceived as to the health condition of Mr. Eisenhower,
who now, so soon after his second election, advocates a Constitutional
Amendment so that he can turn the office over to Richard Nixon who
could not have been elected by the people on his own. Nor have I been de-
ceived by the man who was so greatly honored by Texas, and who double-
crossed the Democratic Parly, and by crooked maneuvers succeeded in de-
feating the worthy Democratic opposition, and who later attempted to make
all State appointments possible, so that his succesor, Price Daniel, would
have to work with Shivercrats, and then later appointed an interim Sena-
tor, Mr. Blakely, from the ranks of the six richest men in the United
States according to newspaper reports.
Eisenhower, now recuperating again in Bermuda, has requested the
election of a Republican from Texas. Shivers is willing to have the Republi-
can or Martin Dies. The people of Texas need to get back to old time
Democracy. We do not need a Republican or an Eisenhower Democrat, if
there is such a thing.
We have the opportunity to place a man in this office who is a wise,
honest, Christian Democrat; A man who would see things from the stand-
point of the average citizen, and not from the millionaires and multi-mil-
lionaires, who seem to be now in charge of Washington. I believe he would
be disinclined to give the President a free hand to send American troops
and spend American money to keep the Suez Canal open for the benefit of
American capital, who have invested in oil fields of this far distant country.
I believe Mr. Yarborough would make for Texas the Senator that we sorely
need. We should not split our votes up among the some eighteen candidates
that are running and thereby cause the election of either a Republican or a
Shivercrat. If I could cast a thousand votes they would all be for RALPH
YARBOROUGH!

Drive -the Champ,
First the automotive writers said, "Keep your eye on Pontiac . . .
this one's a sleeper"! Then the California Highway Patrol
chose Pontiac after three days of grueling competitive tests of
six of America's top performers. Next, in the top stock car event of
the year, NASCAR's 160-mile Daytona Grand National*,
Fontiac outperformed eveiytliing on the beach including
super-charged and fuel injection cars!
NOW IT’S YOUR TURN—Slip into that roomy driver's seat. Gently
nudge the accelerator and feel Pontiac's barrel-chested 347 cu. in.
Strato-Streak V-8 go into action. Put its instant response
and Precision-Touch Control to a traffic test. Choose your own
rough stretch and feel it disappear under Pontiac's Level-Line
Ride. Then head for the open road and give that deep-breathing
power plant a chance to show its mettle in the fresh open air.
Man— you’ve got a champ on your hands for sure! And to make it
even more fun—there's a chance to win a free Pontiac! Just follow
the instructions at the right—you may be a winning driver!
HERE'S ALL YOU DO!
Go to your nearest
authorized Pontiac dealer
during April and test drive
the 1957 Pontiac.
Fill out the official entry
blank and deposit it with
your dealer.
That’s all there is to it!
