for MAYOR
. #
*^3*.*. ., ^ ..,
A MESSAGE FROM THE VETERANS
As the City Election to be heid December 5, 1949,
fast approaches, the undersigned veterans of Worid Wars
I and II heartily endorse the candidacy of a fellow-veteran,
Edgar J. Labonte, for the office of Mayor. We do this
because Mr. Labonte has a distinguished service record,
because he has demonstrated qualities of ability, honesty
and integrity in private industry and in the short period
of his public service, and because he has been active in
fraternal, veterans and civic affairs, thus establishing him
self as a candidate for Mayor who deserves the whole
hearted support of his brother veterans and of all his fel
low citizens.
