Give Us Some Titans

As the county goes into the 1941 Elections, an unusual'—even aii awe­some—political picture unfolds before the Republicans "of St. Lawrence counity.

In Massena, Bill Crapser, an ex tremely able young Republican, attor­ney, faces a well-liked Democrat in a heated contest for the supervisorship, the outcome of which is now seriously in doubt.

In Ogdensburg party lines have cracked, as many a Republican Stal wart marches across the line to join the parade for Mayor Burns, the Democratic nominee—among them the Newells, Lawrence F. Cuthbert and the Ogdensburg Journal, all once rec ognized as among the county s staunchest members of the G. O. P,

In 13 of St. Latvrence county's 32 towns, decisive political battles are in the making. In a county once over­whelmingly Republican, there is 'a deep-seated challenge to the old-time G. O. P. majorities.

WHAT'S THE MATTER? Is this an indication of a trend ? It is said by some who profess to

know, that Democratic claims for credit for current progress of the sea­way development and infiltration, of Democratic adherents employed in carrying on the project itself are tip­ping the scales. •

AH of which may be true. But it's a long, long way from the

answer. What we need in St. Lawrence

county is STRONG. MEN. Men who are not afraid. Men who are willing to stand for good, business-Eke goV ernment first and politics afterward Men who care more for PERFORM ANCE than they do for promises.

We've got a few. Like County Treasurer Charles M. Tait, like As semblyman Allen P. Sill, like' Counuy Welfare Commissioner Alton P. Scrut ton^ like Sheriff Floyd. SanJule, like County Highway Superintendent Earl J. Mattis—Republicans all—GOOD Republicans—STRONG Republicans —STRONG in ' the job they're doing, STRONG in the way tht y do it, STRONG in their belief in good, sound, efficient, economical govern ment.

There are a few others, but we need more like them. We have GOT to have more men like them, if St. Lawrence county is to regain the governmental

j ind political prestige rightfully die served and enjoyed for so many years

And we can get tfiem. ••_•« -^^-^ We can get them if we refui^" to

listen to piscayune political jcsit&alls from Watertown and befogged..jbe-musings from Ogdensburg; if we will demand of OHI- primary candidates NOT babjy-kissing and babbled prom­ises, but RECORDS OF PERFORM­ANCE in the professions, in business or in government. *

STOP AND THINK ABOUT IT Think of the titans who went Over

to Canton and down to Albany ,and Washington from St. Lawrnece coun­ty in dalys gone by. Think of those titans wao made St. Lawrence county history then—whten it took a real man a kind of superman to be a super visor; an able intelligent, outstanding business or professional man to be an assemblyman, a senator o r a congress­man, an outstanding lawyer of proven merit and talent to be a judge or a district attorney.

And compare them with the aver­age political product of 1941.

Oh yes, we elected most' of them because we liked a well-turned phrase, a smile, a patronizing conversation en the doorstep, a favor done in days or weeks or month or years long past, or because they tried (even if they didn't quite succeed) f or because they ought to have another chance.

SENSIBLE ISN'T FT? Here we are, Americans all, faced

with the most serious crisis in all our histouy, when everything we love and hold dear depends on efficient govern­ment—swayed in ou r choices like that ISN'T-IT ABOUT TIME WE WOKE UP?

Wake up, Republicans! "Remember that this great couhtfy of

St. LaWrence^—once a county of agri­culture, now a county of agriculture AND industry—is one of the" greatest counties in the state, one of the great­est in the land.

We, the people of St. Lawrence county, have'a responsibility—even a rendezvous with destiny.

WAKE UP, REPUBLICANS! Get behind the party .NOW—aid

determine to BUljfiD* No t just for the G. O. P„ not Just lot St. Law­rence conntjr, but for'America!
