Library During the Past 2 Years; your Murphy Carnegie Library, has been com piety Remodeled and Modernized. We Are Proud of This Facility. We Invite You to Inspect, Visit, and Enjoy YOUR Library. Now Air Con ditioned with Tiled Floor. Since This Is The Last Issue Of The Scout Before The City Elections, We Thought It It Best To Again Put Before You The Most Important Issues That Concern The Voters And What We Would Try To Do About Them If Elected. 1 - THE SEWAGE FEE We have said throughout these past weeks that we feel the 70% sewage tax on your water bill is unnecessary and we, the Re publican candidates will do everything in our power to lower it or if possible, to cut it out altogether. We will also try to get more re sults with the new system and quit dumping raw wastes into our streams and rivers. 2 - THE POLICE DEPARTMENT We feel that the Police Department should be run on a business like basis, to give protection to the people of Murphy and punish the law breakers, to have policemen who will help visitors in our town, pro tect the business places of Murphy and be available when needed. 3 ? STREETS We feel that Murphy's streets up to a few weeks ago were a disgrace to all of us and feel that some sort of street washing machine would be money well spent. We promise you that we will do every thing in our power to keep Murphy's streets clean and in good repair-ALL the next four years. 4 - INDUSTRY We will work closely with the Chamber of Commerce, the Jay cees, the Cherokee County Development Corporation, and all others in terested in bringing new industry to this area. We will co-operate as much as possible with the business and industry we now have in the matters of water, sewage and garbage. 5 ? REPEATING FORMER PROMISES A. We say again we will do everything possible to aid all Murphy's GOOD VOLUNTEER GROUPS. B. We will do all we can to help Murphy's parking and traffic problems. C. We will do all possible to provide good recreation facilities for the young people of our town. i ? WE NEED YOUR SUPPORT We have tried to make ourselves clear on all vital issues. We will not be a perfect group, but we will be a mayor and council for ALL the people of Murphy, regardless of race or party, ALL the time. cc A CHANCE WILL BE GOOD FOR MURPHY 99 REPUBLICAN ON MAY 3RD AND SEE , ???? _ p**'***?* ***)
