THURSDAY r PAGE EIGHT First Section? THE WAYNESVILLE MOUNTAINEER Monroe Redden Proposes To Establish Veteran's Office In The District Candidate For Congress Anxious That Veterans And j Dependents Be Served I Monroe Redden, candidate for the Democratic nomination for con- j pressman from the twelfth congres- ' Monal district, has announced plans ; for establishing an office in the district in which a veteran serving as a secretary will be available to veterans and their dependents at all times to help them with prob lems that may arise, it was dis closed today. This innovation, which is be lieved to he entirely new, is pro posed by Mr. Redden as a way in which he, if nominated and elected to congress, will he able to keep in constant touch with the veterans in the district and their problems. This contact, lie feels, will enable him to serve them much more quickly and efficiently. "If elected to congress," Mr. Red den said, "I expect to appoint one secretary who will stay in the dis trict all the time for the benefit of the G. I.'s and other war veter ans and their dependents. This secretary will be available as a con tact man. He will be familiar with the laws that affect veterans and their rights and will know the ben efits to which they are entitled under the laws of their country. The secretary in each case will go into detail and will let me have all the facts so that I may be able to render more efficient service on behalf of the veterans and their families. "In order to make sure that the veterans and their dependents have the advantage of contact with one who is in sympathy with their needs and alert to their welfare, I shall ask the veterans' organiza tions of the district to recommend a suitable veteran for this job. The veteran may be a young man al ready engaged in business or in a profesison, whose salary I will sup plement for this service. "However, should congress pass a bill which is pending to authorize additional secretaries, I expect to appoint a full-time secretary to stay in the district. "This is a service to veterans which I think is tieeded and one which will tend to insure that they get the benefits to which they are entitled. It will bring the govern ment closer to the people and will eliminate many trips to Washington by people whose problems can be solved more speedily here at home. "Under these conditions of course it would be necessary to maintain an office suitably located in the district so that it will be readily accessible, but I feel sure that this secretary, who would serve as a contact man with my office, would prove to be a most valuable asset to the people of the district."

RACK SETTLED DUNN Harnett county's sena torial race was quickly settled this week, and nobody can say that Fred S. Thomas hasn't got sport ing blood. The race was almost decided by a flip of the coin. The Erwin druggist, former State Senator and Representative, filed against State Senator L. M. Chaf fin of Lillington, seeking reelec tion. Thomas decided he didn't want ot go through a campaign and that flipping a coin was the easiest and fairest way to decide who should represent Harnett and Randolph counties in the next ses sion. He spent an hour looking for Chaffin, his opponent with his of fer to match him for the office. After awhile, he got tired of look ing and withdrew anyway, leaving Chaffin unopposed. Senator Chaffin, learning later that he has the nomination, ex pressed gratification, but asserted that he wouldn't have gambled his chances by a flip of a coin. J. H. Parks, Jr., Of Canton, Re-enlists J. H. Parks, Jr., son of Mrs. Nova Parks, of Canton, has re enlisted in the service.

I'LOTT FOR STATE SENATE I hereby announce that I am a candidate for the nomination of State Senate subject to the action of the Democratic primary to be held on May 25th. I put my past record as a business man and pub lic official as my platform. J. R. HOY I), SR. Notice To Haywood Voters I am hrreby calling your atten tion to some laws passed by Hon orable Glenn Palmer in the General Assembly of North Carolina, ses sions of 1!)43 and lit 15, as follows: 1. House Kill 594, Chapter 455 of the laws of 1943, entitled, "An act to fix the salary of the Assistant Clerk of the Court of Haywood County." In this bill the salary was fixed at $100.00 per month, and it was approved that said salary "shall be paid by Haywood County out of the general fund of the said county." Prior to the time of the passage of this bill the salary of the assistant clerk was paid out of the fees collected in the Clerk's office. I am calling upon Mr. Palmer to explain to the tax payers of Haywood just why the Assis tant Clerk's salary of $1200 was shifted from payment-out-of fees basis over on to the tax payers of Haywood? 2. House Bill 800, Chapter G93, Laws of 1945, entitled, "An act to fix the salary of the Assistant Clerk of the Court of Haywood County." This act raised the said salary from $100.00 per month to $130.00. This bill provides that this increased salary "shall be paid out of the general fund of said county." I am demanding of Mr. Palmer an explaination as to why this bill was passed without previous notice to the people of Haywood? 3. House Bill 799, Chapter 750, Laws of 1945, entitled, "An act to fix the salary of the Tax Collector for Haywood." This bill raised the salary of the tax collector up to $2,500.00 per year. I call upon Mr. Palmer to explain just why he had this law passed and who it was that asked him to pass the law? 4. House Bill 797, Chapter 749, entitled, "An act to fix the salary of the County Manager of Haywood County." This bill lixed the said salary at $2,400.00. A ra:se of $900.00 over the former salary of the chairman of the Board of County Commissioners. Now let Mr. Palmer come out with the facts and tell Haywood voters why he passed this law without letting the voters know about it. and at whose request the said hill was passed? The passage of the four bills described herein above were mat ters of vital concern to the tax pay ers of Haywood. Their tax burden was materially increased thereby. These said salary increases were not made an issue in the pie-primary campaign nor in the campaign before the general election in No vember of last election year; they were not according to my informa tion, discussed or approved by the County Democratic Executive Com mittee; and no notice as given through the local papers that said laws were to be introduced. They were introduced and passed during the closing days of the General Assembly too late to allow Hay wood tax payers to oppose passage of the bills which were ratified March 13, 1945. Let Mr. Palmer explain to the voters in Haywood why he passed these four bills increasing salaries without letting the said voters and tax payers of Haywood know about said bills. (adv.) R. E.
