GET OUT THE VOTE
The strength of our country stems from the right
of its citizens to vote. Our democracy rests on the
freedom of the individual to choose, for any elective
position, the candidate who he thinks will best repre
sent his interests.
Our form of government has brought untold bene
fits and advantages to us, its citizens. In return, it
is our duty to help keep that form of government
strong, by assuming our responsibilities in voting—
to be sure that we are all governed by those who
represent the choice of the majority. It is when we
shirk this duty that individuals who have only their
own interests at heart find it easier to creep in—to
take over governments, where their private ambi
tions can work to the detriment of the American
people.
We urge every qualified voter to exercise his privi
lege and obligation of voting—not only in the forth
coming election, but in all elections for which he is
eligible. It's every voter's duty to “get out the vote”
—talk it: up with neighbors—volunteer to transport
them to the polls. This is but a small investment,
with a large return, in security, in happiness, in
freedom.
