ANNOUNCEMENTS
JOE COLLINS FOR CONGRESS
To People of Ninth District:
I am a candidate for Congress,
subject to Democratic primary.
Born in log cabin in Union county,
poverty compelled doing without edu
cation or making my way. Taking
provisions from home, I did my cookt
ing and laundry nearly three years
at Hiawassee. After graduating
there, at Mercer and Virginia Uni
versity, have practiced law in Gaines,
ville since 1902. .
I have never held office except 8
years ago I carred 8 of 9 counties
for Solicitor General, served four
years, retired without asking re
election.
I favor more Federal aid for roads.
I favor bettering farm conditions and
labor. I believe Congressmen from
South could exert more influence on
National legislation by being more
outspoken.
Will appreciate your help.
Joseph G. Collins.
FOR CONGRESS
To the People of the Ninth Con
gressional District of Georgia: I am
a candidate for Congress from the

was the home and birth place of my
father and mother. I am bound to
this district by ties of interest and
affection which can never be broken.
It is the desire to serve my people
and to advance the welfare and pros

me to seek the honor and privilege
of representing you in Congress. If I
am given this opportunity of service,
I shall discharge the duties of the of
fice faithfully and conscientiously,
always having in view the best in
terest of all the people. I shall ap

Respectfully,
Herman P. DeLaperriere.
FOR CONGRESS
To the People of the Ninth Dis

account of my work as your public
servant. I must at the same time
keep up with my official duties, which
I have never neglected. It will be a
pleasure to me to meet all the peo

so. In the meantime, I shall appre
ciate very highly anything done by
the people in behalf of my re-elec

and all, may depend upon me to
continue my offorts for them in all
matters in which they are interested,
