Clifton Record highlights local voting and oddities of 1922
The Clifton Record reports Clifton’s strong voting turnout with 90 more qualified voters than Meridian, notes on Texas highway funding, a women-run Washington hotel project, a chicken thief turning a loss into an odd benefit, and plans for a large Hudson River bridge. It also recounts a humorous town office encounter, tax return help in Clifton, a Parent-Teacher pie event, and a lecture on China’s politics. The piece closes with immigration law impact figures and alien entry data.

Americanism and the duty of national character
A quoted public statement argues for Americanism rooted in unity and merit, condemning special privilege and minority tyranny, while favoring government by the people, equal opportunity, and a proactive stance against autocracy. The speaker endorses free speech and education for newcomers, and envisions decisive action when necessary in defense of liberty. A sudden note adds: a scientific breakthrough claims vulcanized rubber can be formed in multiple colors.
