>'rittay, November 1, 1940. TJIE PILOT, Soudicrn Pines, Norlh C.iroIIna SEAWELL Favors Old Age Pensions It has been suggested to me that a good many peo ple in and around Southern Pines and Pinehurst voted against me for Legislature in the last election because they thought that if I were elected, as soon as I arrived in Raleigh I would close down both liquor stores, and they felt they could not stand any such great catastro phe as this. Senator Boyette, in the last general assem bly passed what some of the brethren called the “Sneak Bill” wherein we don’t vote on liquor in Moore County until 1942. There is, therefore, no_ liquor issue in this campaign. A short recital of my platform is as follows: • 1st: If elected I propose to favor all progressive Legislation looking to the advancement of Moore Coun ty, both as to the industrial and as to the resort sections of the county. 2nd: I propose to work for Legislation looking to the establishment of a decent old age pension for old people, and thus taking the present old age assistance out of the hands of local politicians. If the Federal Gov ernment gives us $15.00 per month, we should match it and thus have a minimum of $30.00 per month. We have thrown away on unnecessary and foolish purposes enough to take care of this. 3rd: I shall fight for Legislation looking to cooper ation between Capital and Labor. Constant agitation between Capital and Labor helps create depressions. Give business and labor a chance to cooperate and every one will benefit. 4th: Retirement fund for all school teachers after twenty-five years of service will give the young college graduate a better chance to teach or get other jobs after coming from college. ' 5th: Too much money is spent in this county fore closing on people’s homes for taxes. We need a different homestead exemption and adjusted tax collections. Space is limited or I would like to say further. I will appreciate your support. I have no paid organization. I have no organization of office seekers and holders try ing to elect me; Imust depend entirely upon the good will and work of my friends and those interested in the wel fare of Moore County, above partisan politics. Thank ing you for your support and assuring you that elected or defeated my interests shall always be on behalf of the people of Moore County. H. F.
