INDEPENDENCE HALL, PHILADELPHIA The Old Cradle 4 . &\ of Human Liberty The American Government was born in the spirit of independence and self-reliance. With no army, no navy and scanty resources in men and money, the founders of the Nation declared in Independence Hall, in Philadelphia, July 4, 1776: 3 “That all men were created equal, that they are endowed by their Creator with certain inalienable rights, that among these are life, liberty and the pursuitof happiness. That tosecure these rights, governments are instituted among men, deriving their just powers from the consent of the governed.” B XOOCXX The great leaders of the Republican Party, which has controlled the Nation more years than any other party since the Nation was born, have ever shown themselves worthy to be the decendants of the sturdy, courageous man who founded it. No American has ever blushed with shame because of the action, or non-action of his Government, when a Republican occupied thePresidential chair. : XX A Vote For CHARLES EVANS HUGHES For President ' he vi 1d-time Ameri holding of AMERICA MUST BE FIRST IS A VOTE FOR :h: r‘i’;i(t);o(;xfseseryh;nx;ericaxc::::‘ryl:sh:re:r;%e:y A nation, as able to do so as is the United States, is time; under obligation to protect itself. 2 It is hardly less important for a country to be indus- Is A VOTE FOR a protection wall to keep out poorly-paid-foreign- trially independent than for it to be politically independent. labor-products; ‘When the door to foreign commerce is closed by war it ’ is necessary for a people to be able to maintain themselves, Unless they have the productive resources and the indus- keeni Prar dLee . g, ek e bl IS A VOTE FOR kcing i the industrial and financial strength out support.
