CONGRESSMAN
Republican---13th Congressional Dist.
In all of Detroit's history no man has ever run for the office
of Congressman who is more qualified by a lifelong record
of fine service to his community than HOWARD A.

up by facts. COFFIN is not a politician in any sense of
the word. He is a highly intelligent person who not only
has made his mark as a successful business man, but who
has earned the gratitude of our city because of the public
services he has rendered for many, many years without
remuneration.
