F. C. *Tom’ Forester, almost smgleiiaiidedly, (defeat^ ^
the proposed $150,000 brad issue In roads in Witt in
1927, although defeat of this issue has been recentlf cred
ited to others.
Give Credit Where
Credit Is Due
But Here Are The Facts!
On Monday, Feb. 14, 1927, a mas* meeting of Wilke* citizen* wa* held in the courthou*e to di*cu** ad
visability of issuing $150,000 in road bond*. a of about 3 to 2 the meeting went on record favoring
the issue.
While not making an address for or against the bond issue, A. B. Johnston, chairman of the Board of
County Commissioners, pointed out there wa* a deficit in the sch^l board of around $40,000, and that it
would be necessary to raise the tax rate at least 15 cent* on the $100 valuation for the next five year*.
J. G. Brewer made the motion that a vote be taken and it resulted in a victory for the road boosters by a
ratio of 3 to 2.
Upon motion, J. A. Rousseau and A. H. Casey were appointed to draft the bill. The bUl wa* drawn by F.
B. Hendren, attorney for Wilke* County Road Commission.
FLOYD C. FORESTER MADE A MOTION, WHICH WAS SECONDED BY A, C. DEN-
NIS, TO INCLUDE A DIRECT VOTE OF THE PEOPLE, BUT THE CHAIRMAN RULED
THE MOTiofl 6Uf 6P ANb 11' ^Asi^oi puced before this mass meeT
WTm BILL WAS THEN CARRIED TO THE GENERAL ASSEMBLY IN RALEIGH.
Tom Forester then went to Raleigh and at hi* own expense worked against the bill for six week*. The
bill wa* passed favorably, against Tom Forester’s protests, in committee a* being a Local Bill. Those attend-
i„g the hearing firtt from Wilke. County were L. Bumprner, F. C. Forester, P. E. Dancy, L A Harri., F. M.
Shepherd D. F. Shepherd, A. Caudill, Dr. T. H. Higgm., F. B. Hendren, C. D. Holbrook, T. S. Bryan, E. R.
Settle Delo. Holbrook, C. C. McCann, Ex-Sheriff J. H. Johmon, R. G. Fo»ter, and Juliu. C. Hubbard. Other
citizen, in Raleigh who did not attend the committee hearing were H. A. Cranor, Juliu. A. Rouswau, and
D J Brookshire. Tom Forester, after being defeated in all committee hearing., started home, but arriving in
Winlton-Salem, he wired LeRoy Martin, Chief Clerk of the Senate, and again protested ^aimt ^ bill. Tom
Forester wa. called back to Raleigh by Senator John Hargett, and then he contacted Wilkins P. Horton, now
candidate for Governor, and W. Bank. Horton, of Caswell County, and persuaded them to offer an amend-
^nt to the bill -.lUng for a vote of Wilke. County citizen, on the issue in line with hi. motion m the original
mass meeting. When these amendments were offerd and passed, proponents of the bill withdrew their sup-
port and the measure was killed.
IT WAS THROUGH THE EFFORTS AND INFLUENCE OF TOM FORESTER THAT
THIS BILL, WHICH WOULD HAVE PLUNGED WILKES COUNTY DEEPER BflTO^
WASKILLED.
Vote For F. C. W Forester For The State Senate
AND LET HIM CONTINUE TO WORK FOR THE BEST INTEREST OF WILKES COUNTS
AND ITS CITIZENS.
