TO THE PEOPLE OF
CHEROKEE COUNTY
In announcing my candii!d!acy for Representative of
Cherokee County to the 1953 State Legislature, subject
to the action of the Democratic Primary on May 31 st, I
want it clearly understood that I am not a candidate of any
person, group, or organization. For more than thirteen
years I have lived among the people of Cherokee County
and have beJen their servant as minister and teacher; there
fore, 1 am sure the voters will not be misled by rumors,
accusations, or insinuations. I ask that the faicts be pre
sented and that the peop/le decide. I have worked among
the people of the county long enouch to kn'ow what they
want and need.
I believe:
1?That the legalized sale 'of alcoholic beverages is a
blight that destroys the moral and spiritual life of the home
and the community. 1 am against such sale.
2?That next to the home and churfch the Public
Schools have the greatest influence in building tomorrow's
citizens, I am for the progress of our schools. I supported
the Road and Sfchoo P Bond Issue the result of which we
today are proud.
3?That the surest way to prosperity for our county
is to cause the farmer to prosper. I believe measures for
the good of the farmer should be supported.
4?That the natural resources of our State?streams,
lakes, forests?should be improved and protected with
much diligence.
5?That the new industries in Cherokee County should
be fully supported, and other industries he encouraged to
locate here.
If you believe these things and wartt to see them come
to pass, I ask your support on May 31 st.
