It is a pleasure to be in Maryville today, in this
great farming section of Northwest Missouri. I have
a great many friends in this part of the State, and

Your Congressman, the Honorable Richard M. Duncan,
who ably represents this District in Congress, is my
personal and political friend. He is a member, and an
influential one, of the powerful Ways and Means
Committee of the House of Representatives, and you
ought to keep him in that great legislative body as
long as he is willing to go to Washington to represent
you. He is a friend of President Roosevelt and a
Democrat after my own heart.
