W. A. Wlsbon of Murphy
in Introducing Robert Brown
Bid the following Joke. He
related there was this Repub
lican candidate that was
?peeking to a groig) out on
the farm on day. The crowd
was large so the candidate
looked around for something
m stand on. All In sight was
a manure spreader. In
closing his remarks, the cand
idate said "This Is die first
time I have ever spoken from
the Democrat platform".
Brown opened by saying, "I
want a> share the honor I had
today during my visit with
President Elsenhower. When
I mid Mm I wes going m
visit one of the beat Repub
lican counties in the dfatrlct,
I also mid Mm the vote in
1956 was 3,840 for Mm and
2,843 against Mm. He replied,
"It Is s good county"!
"It Is later than it has ever
been. Our government has
moved a long way. Govern
ment was created to insure
our liberties, m insure our
freedom. Today, government
Is becoming lass and leas
equal. Thedebtls monsterous.
Ws have s money mortgage
rope around our children and
our children's children's
throats".
"The government dose
more aid more for us and does
more and more m us".
"It is not freedom m tell
the farmer what m plant and
where m plant. The governing
of prices Is not freedom. It
Is not freedom to go m Raleigh
or Washington for every little
decision."
"Our present Congressman
has contributed m socialism.
He has a left wing rating of
6055. Walter Ruther rates Mm
7055. He voted for every debt
Increasing Mil that has been
presented. Then be voted ag
ainst raising the national debt.
Eat Mgh and not pay."
according to Brown.
"Berlin has created a sit
uation wMch may not be set

the brink of the fifth world
war. In Cuba, our own con
gressman has admitted, the
Russians are only sending in

"The bigger the government
the bigger the tax, the bigger
the Interference. The choice
Is clear. The time is now this
Nov. 6. Let's make the right
choice."
Doyle Burch closed the
meeting by saying. "I'm not

The Democrats lull us m

LETTERS TO
THE EDITOR
The Editor,
While reading the Cherokee
Scout, It was noted, there's
a new voters registration
taking shape In Cherokee
Coimty. Meanwhile, Clay Co
unty should follow In the wake
of Cherokee's purge of super
nous accumulations; and clean
house. Unfortunately, the re
luctancy here Is well founded
notwithstanding. By and large,
for which every party Is bene
fited, however there should be
a purge of the books In all
counties every few years.
There are names of people,
who have gone from the state
or county; persons sleeping
tnder green blankets In ceme
teries. Fascinating as It Is
fantastic, the dead might
emerge from the tomb to cast
a ballot against their "pall
bearers."
No doubt cows and dogs
have voted absentees many
times. Nevertheless, the
books are due for a clean
sing after there's an accumu
lation of foreign substance
over a period of years. Any
how It Is time to clean iq>
when the dead, and cows and
dogs are voted.
Martha Ledford
Hayesvllle, N.C.
The Editor:
A lady's picture was prom
inently displayed In the And
rews Journal a few Issues
back. This lady. It seams, Is
wanting to be elected to the
office of representative in the
forthcoming election In Nov..
for Cherokee County.
All this brings much regret
t> me, that Is akin to grief,
just to see our men folk sur
rendering their places over
to the fair sex In politics
and In the industrial field of
this great economy of ours,
and in fact, the world, to a
great extent.
Could It be that the men
have dropped so low in intell
ect that a political party out
of all our fine young man
that come out of our schools
and colleges, that a competent
one can't be found to repre
sent a county? I hardly think
so. I am a woman and 1 think
It is high time the men should
wake ig> and get themselves
back In their places before
the thing gets plumb out of
hand. The case doesn't have
to be argued. Even nature
teaches us where a woman's
place Is - that It Is the home,
looking after the affairs of it
and teaching her brood how n
be good homemakers and cit
izens for their country when
they have grown ig>.
We see women en wring the
industrial field as book
keepers, stenographers, ac
countants, and factory work
ers, etc.
There is not a job on earth
in the field of industry that
women can do that men can't
do. It may be argued that they
can do certain things faster
than men, but what point is
there here? We have an over
production of co modi ties, any
way. There are at the present
time, thousands of unem
ployed. Many are loosing their
homes, automobile, furni
ture. Those affected are
hurting Just as bad as If every
worker was unemployed.
Our economy will never be
able a> furnish employment
for both men and women. It
is one of two - either the
women go back a> the homes,
or our men - folks will al
though they are already being
reduced to a horde of baby
sitters, without any say - so
over anything.
If I had my say - so, I
would have every woman cand
idate for office defeated in
the forthcoming election, and
last of all I would see woman
back in the homes and men
the providers and those that
will not provide should be pro
vided with a Job and made
do it
