Transcription - Full

Eisenhower answers America. Today, across the nation, Americans everywhere are burdened with a multitude of problems. What to do about skyrocketing prices? What to do about backbreaking taxes? What to do about the staggering national debt? And, close to all hearts, when will we have an end to war in Korea? Asked Mr. Hasselriess of Man of the Hour, Dwight D. Eisenhower, General, the Democrats tell me I never had it so good. Can that be true? When America is billions in debt, when prices have doubled, when taxes break our backs, and we are still fighting in Korea? It's tragic, and it's time for a change. To the millions seeking relief from runaway prices and taxes, seeking an end to war in Korea, the answer is Man of the Hour, Dwight D. Eisenhower. Vote for Eisenhower November 4th.
