Holcomb says a soldier’s
job shouldn’t be kept
open for him
INCE we entered thewar Marcus H. Holcomb, who
is running for re-election as Governor, exercised his
.. .power as Chief Executive of Connecticut to veto a
bill which would have re-instated State officers or em-
ployes in their jobs after they come back from the fight.
I“Su¢liiire-instatement,” says Governor Holcomb in look-
ing {lie door on our soldiers and sailors, “would require
the discharge of some person employed to fill the vacated
position and be an injustice to such employe.”
Is there any man or Woman in’ Connecticut now filling
the place of a soldier or sailor Who would not gladly
religg‘gfiztish that place to its rightful holder if he gets
through alive and comes back safely?
Would any citizen of Connecticut take advantage of the
absence of a'man who is fighting for his freedom to wrest
that man’s livelihood from him?
We don’t believe it!
Thomas J. Spellacy pledges that if he is elected Gover-
nor he will use every honorable means to put on the
statute books the bill which would now be a law if Hol-
comb had not vetoed it.
The employes of the Post Office Department now in ser-
vice will find their jobs waiting for them. The manufac-
turers now proudly displaying their service flags aren’t
going to haul them down and turn a cold shoulder to the
boys when they come back.
Don’t you share Thomas]. Spellacy’s belief that there
should be no discrimination against the returning offi-
cers and employes of the State? Vote for him and the
rest of the Democratic ticket if your patriotic gratitude
means more than a brass-band welcome!
