WILBUR _ When 13th District GOP leaders meet tomorrow night (Friday) to select a candidate to fill the vacant geeonthebdlotlettbythedeathofnalphl'}. urch, we don‘t think they could do better than to pick Brig. Gen. William H. Wilbur. Gen. Wilbur, a forceful and eomnfn:hding ashwell as persuasive speaker, is not one 0: ose who is simply "agin" Communism, Socialism, Statism or whatever name you prefer for big government. He is actively and agressively FOR what we have loosely come to call "The American Way of Life," because he has learned, by intimate, firstâ€"hand observation what the pitfalls and failings of :;ij‘s government are. He knows not only that Commu and Socialism are far inferior to the American system, but, even more important, he knows and can explain why and how they are inferior. .+ K Believing thoro ml;lg and wholeheartedly in the value of individual freedom, coupled with individual responsibility, Gen. Wilbur is a true liberal in the almost forgotten sense of that overworked term. He believes in complete freedom of opportunity, but he g\oem‘n"t belxev:‘ a government can support its citizens. ewél a_2 W i o i o en n e n i t Do Penalty Date For We need men like that in Washington.
