Ford said:
"For the next two years,
every one of us has to engage in
an all-out fight against inflation,
our nation's public
enemy number one. You have a
critical choice to make on
November 5 and I urge you to
send to Congress a
Representative who will work
with me in this fight in your
best interests. I urge you to
return Charlie Sandman to
Congress. I need his support."
Sandman and Ford are
longtime close friends. They
served side by side in the House
for seven years before Ford
became Vice President last
year. During his Vice
Presidency, Ford came to
Atlantic City in March to speak
at two fund-raising events on
behalf of the local
Congressman.
Congressman Sandman is
currently completing his fourth
term m the House Now fourthranking
minority member of
the Home Judiciary Committee,
Sandmen's growing
seniority and influence and his
consistent voting record
against inflationary legislation
lie behind the endorsement.
Included in the reasons for
the Teamster endorsement,
Secretary-Treasurer Robert
Cerioola said, were Sandman's
interest in adjusting prevailing
wage rate! to a more practical
and up to date scale, and also
the veteran liwmaker'l
unrelenting fight to keep
NAFEC here, fully understanding
the Importance of
NAFEC to the economy of the
area,
"Notice has also been taken
of Congressman Sandman's
willingness in recent months to
meet and discuss local labor
problems," Cerieola laid.
