A p- -asr-i-T ■■ i ■- - —w- m w- «■ m LET’S KEEP THE 1 RECORD STRAIGHT .vi KERR SCOTT, a man of the soil, a graduate of North Carolina State College, ail his life has fought for the best interests of the farmer with out penalizing the rights of others. He took over one of the WEAKEST departments 1 I of AGRICULTURE in the Nation in 1937, revitalized it and turned over to his successor the STRONGEST i t DEPARTMENT OF AGRICULTURE IN THE SOUTH. i \ * P Kerr Scott took the sand out of fertilizer, the saw dust out of feed, and short measure out of scales and 1 » g-asoline pumps. Kerr Scott, a dirt farmer, a dairy farmer, has lived 1 ; all his life on a dirt road, and knows first-hand how badly rural road improvements are needed to serve # ( the best interests of the farmer and the buyers of P f. the farmer’s produce—that is, ALL the people. [ Kerr Scott resigned as Commissioner of Agricul » ture when he announced for Governor, refusing to conduct a campaign at the expense of the taxpayers that would keep him out of his office most of the time. He will not neglect his duty. i Character and intellectual honesty are interwoven j in Kerr Scott. He is fair, honest and straight for- J ward. He says what he means and means what he » says. E. G. Moss, former director of the Tobacco Experiment I [ Station at! Oxford, says: J I “Keep the record straight. Granville Tobacco Wilt cost ] the tobacco farmers of North Carolina millions of dollars prior * (to 1944. Many of us worked with this problem, but not until Commissioner of Agriculture Kerr Scott got us the equipment and appropriations did we produce the resistant variety, better: known as Oxford 26 that has,saved the farmers of North Caro- 1 lina from $25,000,000 to $50,000,000 annually.” ( The farmers of North Carolina, recognizing the character, honesty, vision and administrative ability of Kerr Scott, went to the polls three times to elect * 1 him Commissioner of Agriculture. Kerr Scott served Hie farmers of North Carolina well as Com- , missioner of Agriculture. He will serve the farmers • and ALL the people of North Carolina well as Governor- 1 ! GO FORWARD WITH SCOTT!
