INFORMAL REMARKS Of The President
At City Hall, Camden, N.J
October 27, 1944
My friends of South Jersey: I wish I could stay here longer in this campaign. I have been here many times before, and as you know, even in the old, old days when I was with the Navy, I used to come here to see the New York Shipbuilding Company. And I am glad to be greeted by their band. (laughter and applause)
Things are going along pretty well, and I have gotten accustomed to the rain. (laughter) I want merely to wish you all good luck, and hope that you will all go to the polls.
And I can do no better than to read to you, in reverse, a little card that Mayor Brunner handed to me. At the bottom of it it says these words, and I throw them back to you with my regards and all the good luck.
He said: "Wishing you good luck, good health, and victory upon the battlefronts, and at the ballot boxes."
And that is what I say to you. (applause)
