This bright light
is a bright idea
for home safety
Texas-New Mexico Power Company's Nite-Liter is a
smart addition to any home. The 100-yard diameter
of usable light It provides makes your home safer.
Accidental falls caused by poor outdoor lighting
will be less likely, and your well-lighted home won’t
be an easy nighttime target for burglars.
This light is bright In another way too
— It automatically turns itself on at
dusk and off at dawn.

stalled by calling your

I want to work for you.
In the last few days it has
been brought to my attention
that a rumor is being circulated that I am with-
drawing from the race. This is not true, I have no
intention of doing so. I will continue to do my best
to contact you before the primary election March 8.
I appreciate your vote and support.
