To the Voters of Laurens County In the first primary I was compelled td remain silent on certain questions because of mv peculiar Twaifinn in the CoiiRressional race. Rumors of all sorts vv^re afloat which could easily have been corrected Jiad I had the fi-* nancial- backing to carry on a political controversy in the newspapers qr had I not been afraid that I would hurt Mr. MeSwain’s chances for re-election, so I .sat steady in the boat and let my friends defend me at the ballot box. I shall always be grateful to them for the expression of confidence they shovvtxl by their vote, and especially am I grateful to those people cf my own community and surrounding communities where I vv'as well known per sonally for the overwhelming vote they gave me. That should be amiyle proof to outsiders that the insinuating charges against me are groundless and were designed for the political advancement of ope who cared nothing for the reputation of a young man whose life had been con ducted on a high plane. Mr. >IcSwain\s re-election tq Con- gre.^'s in ."pite of accusations made against him demon strates conclusively that the ^ople of l.aurens County do not aborove of unfair tactics in polit.cs and I trust that they will not permit me to become the in'iocent vic tim of an affair in which I was wholly free of fraud, di.s- honesty, or misrepresentation.

I am not the caniliclate of any clique,, clan, o.-ganiza- t’on, institution or ring, ami cm not on any slate. I am running my own race without auvice from anyone. No one has coiitribuieii as much as ojie cent to mv’ campaign funds nor have I had any such promises of assistatice. If I am elected 1 will he free from ooligations for I have made none. 1 enteifed the race With a tlcsire to ser^e my people, as evideneed by the fact that I resigned ii good paying jol) to return home and offer myself, as a public servant. 1 believe 1 am fully tiualified to serve mv county~v and state; I have graduated from college: I have worked for everything 1 evc^r received; 1 have the viewp lint of the wairking man and of the profe.^sional man. I have made an exhaustive study of yountv and siate institu tions and believe that I know the conditions of affail's as AVell as any man ill South rarolina. I have not lost sight cf my moral ohligations to society, realizing that intelli gence without correct spiritual foundations is worth nothing to civilization. I have always subscribed,to any movement which would benefit the Whole of our society ami have bitterly opposed any .scheme which would ex ploit the w4iole for the benefit of the few, and if elected I will conduct both my private ami official life so as to reflect^honor ujKin my.self and the people I renresent. You will find me always on the job and vou will tind me .sober. 1 shall work in harmony with our Senator and with who ever else is sent there as our delegation so long as we do not differ .on fundamentals. Because I exjiect to remain in South C’arolina for many years to come I know that what t do as a member of the Legislature will de termine largely niy career in the future and L believe th^ i wdtiiTt hFTdoTiri-arrfuTdt mpaB s fKan Volild old er men with most of their lives bqhind them. I certainlv would mvt vote for extra pay, iiu‘i"Fa?TrtaxeHr-of~tb) any thing rash, but on the other liand I would be always stri,- ing to bring about reforms and otherwise m-ake a use ful member, knowing that the eyes of the people are iifMin uTe. I am familiar witli all parliamentarv procedure, hav ing worked in Mr. McSw'ain’s Washington office and hav ing watched the inner workings of the Legislature, in Uo; liimbia for over four years. I would not have to he "broken in but could step right in and go to work without loss of time. I would know how to protect the interests of my county in the committee rooms and on the fUair of the House. I would know how to go about eliminating waste end how to consolidate overlapping departments, and I have the courage to stand up for my convictions. ’ I stand for a lower supolv bill and for reduction of all state appropriations, cutting of salaries from Governor on down, induding college heads, etc., but I should pro tect the school teachers and our public schools generally. I shall work to change our pre.xent system of ^taxation by taking the taxes off farm land and m dcing income the basis of taxation. 1 shall work at all times to rehabilitate the f irming industry and to bring into our ciainty rievv industries. I favor a .satisfactorv workman’.s compensa tion law, an eight-hour dav in the cotton mills (if the workers approve of it) and am bitterly opposed to the “stretch-out svdem” and shall fight it. At the .same time I shall strive to reduce cotton mill taxes which are so high that they make such [ir.Hctices almost compulsory on the management. I shall trv to secure f ,r L aurens County a Service Officer who will give freerfhelj) to all torily. And I shall supiKirt anv othec'measure de.signed to relieve our people of their burdens. There is talk that Ij^hjLou yuimg^_( 1 am 21 years old);- If I am not a man now I never will be. VV'e burden our selves to death with taxes to give our children education. Do we do this to prepare them to live a life of ease or to become leaders in our communities’.'

Then what sort of reasoning is it that denies a young man the right to de fend his country in time of peace’/ Lh his life less valu able than his energy, intelligence and educration’/ The old mep h'kve made a me.'-s of things in the Legislature—why not try a little young blovxl’/ I am the only young man in the race and certainly two older men (by their own logic supposed to be tlie_iA’ne of men we need there) wooM- have a restraining influence on me if I tried to jump the traces, and if I did not prove my merit in two years I CGuld be withdrawn at the next election. GIVE ME A CHANCE AND I WILL PROVE MY ABIUTY. I sh ill cooperate with the citizens of Clinton and yi- ci.iity in every way to secure for them adequate roads and will l>e willing at all times to lend whatever assist ance a member of the delegation.can to solve their prob- } lems.
