Harrisburg Rally, Monday, November 1, 1976
Tomorrow is the most important day of this campaign.
The choice for President is between an experienced
leader of performance and action of and a man of many
promises / and many positions /
President Ford has made us proud again
of our
government / and of ourselves / He became President during
a difficult time and he has brought America out of those
dark days / through strong and honest leadership
/
America is at peace / and no American is fighting
/
anywhere in the world / President Ford is an experienced /
and realistic world leader. / He has acted to keep
America strong and secure.
He has made the tough decisions to improve the
economy. He has not been afraid / to veto those big spending
bills / to save your tax money. / I hope you 11 send him some
more Republican help / from Pennsylvania / in the House and
Senate
to keep up the fight against waste and inflation.
/
In everything Jerry Ford has done as President / he
has been realistic with you / about what government can / and
should do. / He is a man of his word.
/
Before you vote tomorrow think about America
Harrisburg, Page Two
in August, 1974 and America today / Then I am sure /
you will vote for my husband.
Elect President Ford / and send more Republican
help in the House and Senate / so that America can
move proudly into its third century!

Paul Harris Fellow Award, Harrisburg, Pennsylvania
Monday, November 1, 1976
Thank you for this award. I am very proud to
be the second member of my family to receive this
honor from Rotary International.
It is especially exciting to know that this
award also means a donation in my name to the Rotary
Foundation Scholarship. The work of the Foundation in
improving understanding between countries is so vital.
Through Rotary International, you work to improve
relations between countries, but your service to your
own communities and cities is equally vital. The
leadership of Rotarians and the helping hands you extend
to those in need help build our country.
I am honored to receive this award. I thank you
all, and I hope you remember that other special Paul
Harris Fellow in my family tomorrow!
