ALSTON May 6,1986 For County Commissioner I am seeking a second term as a Warren County Com missioner. I have been pleased and proud to have served the citizens of Warren County, and look forward to the opportunity of serving them again in this capacity. Further, I have been pleased to work with my fellow Com missioners on all issues coming before the Board, particularly in providing funds for such activities as establishing a county wide Senior Citizens Center in Warrenton, a regional transpor tation service to all citizens, increased funding for the rural fire system as well as the hospital, our public schools and numerous other programs. Although we have not been able to fund all program requests or save the hospital with increased county funds (more than 200%) and our best efforts, we have responded with care to the needs of our citizens within the county's limited tax resour ces.

Soil, Water Observance Scheduled The Warren Soil and Water Conservation District will join the nationwide observance of Soil and Water Stewardship Week, May 4-11, according to John Kilian, chairman of the Warren Soil and Water Conservation District. "Conservation's New Fron tiers" is the theme for this year's observance. The reference booklet suggests a revival of the pioneer spirit to explore the new frontiers of today. "Society must adjust constant ly to changes dictated by discoveries, technology, demographic factors and deple tion of resources," the booklet states.
