I You said, Candidate Scott, in a speech at Durham as quoted in The News and Observer of May 22, 1954: “All the people want are the cold, hard facts and the opportunity to pass upon them. The people want from their political leadership clean, fair and honest campaigns.” THESE ARE COLD, HARD FACTS, KERR SCOTT 1. You received from the Stale in 1952. while you were Gov ernor. $12,|558 for highway right-of-way through your 2300-acre plantation. 2. You leased a rock quarry on your farm to a contractor building roads for the State, and thus profited in another way from the road program. 3. Since you were acknowledged as Boss by your Highway Commissioner, a total of 19.5 miles of secondary roads were built in and around your 2300-acre plantation. 4. Your son used a State car to travel to and from Raleigh while he was a student in Duke University. 5. You accepted pay from East Carolina College for making a speech at this State Institution while you were Governor 6. You accepted gratuities as Governor, including $1,141.87 worth of nitrogen solution delivered to your farm by the Liberty Manufaclturing Company of Red Springs to fer tilize your pastures for a political rally you never held. 7. You have refused to make public your income tax re turns so the people can decide for themselves to what fur ther extent you enriched yourself as Governor. 8. You fired or attempted to fire numerous State employees because they did not vote for your hand-picked candi dates as you dictated. YOU ASKED FOR THE FACTS, KERR SCOH! AND YOU GOT THEN! We agree with you: “The people want from their leadership clean, fair and honest cam paigns.” The people also want clean, fair and honest candidates.
