\® I | November 3, 1928 WINNETKA TALK 45 A Party of Achievement JHE Republican Party has a remarkable record of achievement. Nation and state have progressed and prospered under Republican rule. Constructive Republican leadership in Illinois for more than 70 years--during which time there have been but two Democratic administrations--has won for this State an enviable position among the most progressive states of the Union. The nominees of the party this year were selected at a primary in which more than 1,660,000 Republi- can voters participated. They were chosen because of their well-known honesty, ability and experience. Under their guidance Illinois will go forward with long strides during the coming four years. They are pledged-- To hasten the construction of the bond issue system of roads and to undertake the working out of a plan for the surfacing of secondary roads, thus extending the benefits of paved high- ways to thousands of farms and small communities. To apply business efficiency in highway construction and other public works. To work out a sound, just and economic reform of the taxing system, in order to relieve homes, farms and other visible property of the unequal burden they now bear. To cooperate in every way possible with agricultural interests for improvement of the condition of the farmer and to assist in securing national farm relief legislation. To maintain a helpful attitude toward industry and to favor legislation for the protection of wage earners and the im- provement of conditions under which they work. To assist the coal mining industry by demanding the removal of the unfair differential on Illinois coal. To extend and improve the charitable institutions and maintain the highest standards for the care and treatment of helpless wards of the state, free from spoils politics. To insist upon regulation and management of public utilities in the interest of the public which they serve. To complete the construction of the Lakes-to-the-Gulf Waterway and to urge the building of a waterway connecting Chicago with the Atlantic ocean through the Great Lakes.
