6 The Screen Guilds’ Magazine “A Vote for Haight is a Vote for Haight”. . . There comes once in a political life¬ time, a candidate who is unafraid of special interests, corporate control of government, and domination of the utilities in public life. Such a man is Raymond L. Haight, dynamic Progres¬ sive gubernatorial candidate. Haight is a square shooting, hard working attor¬ ney, who is not afraid of such problems as unemployment relief, old age pen¬ sions, and tax relief. Having a background of pioneer ancestry, this native son is heart and soul in this campaign to give this state back to all of the people. When Ray¬ mond L. Haight was Commissioner of Corporations he made California safe from stock swindlers by revoking the permits of nearly 4,000 companies, that upon investigation were discovered to be of a fraudulent nature. HAIGHT, the man unafraid! Being but 38 years of age, this astute young man is blessed with mature judge¬ ment and an athletic body that responds well to arduous tasks that require both brain and brawn. As Robert P. Shuler, noted radio minister, has often said: . . . 4 ‘truly the man of the hour.” By Ralph Ryan (Public Relations Director, Haight Campaign) The new Haight slogan is: “A VOTE FOR HAIGHT IS A VOTE FOR HAIGHT.” The ex-corporation eom- Who Is Haight? Raymond L. Haight was born at San Jose, California, 1897. He attended the elementary and high schools of San Francisco and Los Angeles and was graduated from the University of Southern California Law School in 1921. At U. S. C. he played basketball and handball—varsity basketball in his sen¬ ior year. During the war he volunteered in the U. S. air service and served until the Armistice. He is a member of the Native Sons of the Golden West, American Legion, United Veterans of the Republic and the American Bar Association. In 1931, during an emergency he served as State Corporation Commis¬ sioner and carried through the now historic clean up of that office. Mr. Haight is married and has three children. missioner is in this scrap until the finish and intends to meet his opponents fairly and squarely on every vital issue. While Upton Sinclair has chosen to ignore the Townsend Old Age Pension Plan and Merriam commends it to the study of Washington, Raymond L. Haight points out that he has always been in favor of this meritorious idea. In his radio appeals, Haight has sought to prove to his thousands of lis¬ teners that his opponents have been busy fomenting a vicious class war and con¬ sequently have obscured the true pic¬ ture. The Progressive candidate still believes in taking a middle course that does not lean too far to the right nor too far to the left. In short, the battle cry is: “Give California back to all of the people.” Now that President Franklin D. Roosevelt has blown up that “Sinclair bogey-man,” Merriam model, by saying he did not make any promises to Upton Sinclair, it behooves people to forget expediency and vote for the best man. Sinclair is NO LONGER a factor; con¬ sequently Merriam is not needed to save the state from a Russian atmosphere. VOTE FOR HAIGHT!
