This article focuses on recent propaganda related to the election campaign in Texas to fill the seat of senator Morris Sheppard's seat in the U.S. Senate. It briefly details political images and life of various candidates of this election. It is reported that, the name of any person who has filed in time and paid the fee will appear on the ballot on June 28, 1941. Of the twenty-nine aspirants, one is a Communist, two are Republicans, and twenty-six are Democrats paying various sorts of lip-service to President Franklin Delano Roosevelt. According to the author, four important candidates are Governor W. Lee O'Daniel, Attorney General Gerald Mann, Representative Marlin Dies, and Representative Lyndon Johnson.
