Cities ano Towns Education Enrolled Bills and Expenditures or the House Finance Institutions por the Deap Insurance IRRIGATION AND DRAINAGE I trust you will consider this a personal letter to you and that you will understand that the cost of individual letters to all my fellow citizens is prohibitive. Please allow me to take this means bf saying a few words to you which I might not otherwise have the oppor tunity of doing. While serving the people of Warren County during the 1965 * Regular Session and the two subsequent Sessions of the North Carolina General Assembly, I gained valuable experience and feel that my people have an investment in that experience. I shall use it to the very best advantage in representing all the citizens of our district in the future. I believe your neighbors in Warren feel that I have served then with dignity and distinction and I offer you good people of Franklin and Vance the sane type representation. K.y interest in you is personal and I have a strong conviction that the office which I hold belongs to you. This is always uppermost in my thinking as I go about the task of speaking your convictions in the Legislative Halls, of presenting your problems in the proper manner, and in service to individuals who seek help. You will find the doors of my office, both in Raleigh and in Warrenton, always open to you and that I am easily available and ready to listen. I know that the mark of. a. good Representative is made only by keeping open the lines of comunicQtion among the people he represents, thereby knowing their thinking and speaking for them. JC The principles we believe in, the good government we want for ourselves and for our children, the wholesome life and great opportunities which we so strongly desire are constantly under attack by those who would destroy our way of life. We must maintain these Jewels of American Democ racy and we can do this only through proper representation. You have my solemn pledge to always stand for what is right, good, and beneficial. On this basis alone I ask for your support. If this is what you believe in, then I an ready to serve. May I count on you? WRD/md
