FROM:
W. T, “Bill” Culpepper, Jr.
CANDIDATE FOR THE
House of Representatives
I would like very much to have your support and vote and allowed the
privilege of Representing you in the 1967 N. C. General Assembly.
This is my first offering for an elective political office, however, my
Father served as both a Representative and State Senator. My younger
Brother was Mayor of Elizabeth City for four terms, resigning to accept a
Postmaster appointment. My reason for mentioning this is to inform you
that although I have had little experience in the elective field I have
certainly been exposed to its environment.
About the only thing that I can say for myself is that I am a small busi
ness man with no axes to grind and whose outside positions in the past were
involved only in community service. These, however, have afforded me
reasons to believe that if elected I can serve the Counties of our District
in a fair and impartial manner.
Each registered voter has the opportunity of selecting two of the an
nounced field of six to serve as their Representatives in the 1967 General
Assembly. Should you be allowed to c ast one of your votes in behalf of my
candidacy, you can be sure that it would be much appreciated.
Sincerely yours,
W. T. “Bill” Culpepper, Jr.
The President has recom
mended that this figure be
reduced to $183,400,000, but
many of us felt that this re
duction was not justified for
such a tried and proven pro
gram.
In the First North Caro
lina Congressional District
there are 10 school admini
strative units which receive
these supplemental funds. We
were able to override the
Administration and restore
the funds for the impacted
areas.
Many of us are differing
with the Administration in
their recommendation that
we cut the appropriation for
many successfully proven
programs, based on many
years of experience, v'hile
increasing by tremendous
amounts, the appropriations

for many of the new and un
proven programs. For ex
ample, the $1.7 billion which
is requested for the “Poverty
Program”. So far, we have
been able to restore the ne
cessary funds for such items
as School Lunch Program,
Milk Program, Agriculture
Extension Service, and other
programs.
The Higher Education Fa
cilities Act. of 1963 was ex
tended for an additional three
years. When we consider the
tremendously increased en
rollment on the college level,
tihs type legislation, if ad
ministered fairly, can be of
inestimable value.
Ten years ago there were
some 240,000 students in
graduate education in the
United States; today there
are nearly 600,000 and in
1974 it is estimated that
there will be over one mil
lion graduate students in our
colleges and universities.
