Our Commander-in-Chief, Franklin D. Roosevelt,
Lauds Senator Prentiss Brown for His Fine Work

and logically carried out. To quote
Time Magazine 'Man Against
Bloc': 'There was a man with
the courage of conviction, a man
from a heavily agricultural state
and worse, a man running for
re-election this year, Prentiss
Marsh Brown of Michigan, 53, a
Democrat. The question as Pren-
tiss Brown say it, was simply
that the Commander-in-chief had
asked Congress in time of war
to give him by specific legislation,
powers he could otherwise use
without specific congressional con-
sent.' The eyes of the entire coun-
try will be focused upon the State
of Michigan Nov. 3. It is our
duty, our sacred job, to expend
all our efforts from now on until
this date of election to show the
rest of the country that we of
Michigan are proud of Senator
Brown and will return him to
the United States Senate with the
greatest majority any Senator has
yet received."
