Description2 page (front and back) black and white newspaper handout concerning "Who is John E. Miller? Let 'Doc" Abington Tell You” The front shows a picture of Miller with a chain drawn around his neck by "an artist". John Miller was a 2nd District Congressman from AR in the 1930's. Dr. WH Abington of Beebe ran against him and is calling Miller a liar based on statements made against Abington by Miller during a speaking engagement in Walnut Ridge. Abington declares that all Miller's statements are false and if he cannot prove this, he will accept a 30 day jail term without trial. Miller was the Republican/"Hoovercraft" running against Carl E. Bailey for the US Senate race.
