Reasons Why NANCE Should
Be Elected State Senator!
Friends of Senator Carroll D. Nance in Laurens, at their own expense, here
by submit some reasons vdiy he should be re-elected
Senator from Laurens County:
1. He Carried Out All His
Campaign Pledges
He has challanged anyone on every stump to
deny these things: —
he promisod and did reduce the tax levy
of Laurens county lower Than at any time in the
last 25 years.
That he promised and did abolish the fee sys
tem in the court house.
That he promised and did provide for the elec
tion of the game warden in the primary.
That he promised and did provide for an elec
tion on abolishing the rural police system.
2...He Reduced Taxes
Records furnished on the signature of D. R.
Simpson, County Treasurer, show that the reduce
— tion of taxes to the people of Laurens county, for
county purposes alone, during 1933-34-35 amount
ed to $293,416.85 brought about by a reduction
in the tax levy of 13^2 mills. All county teachers
^ and officers are now getting their pay promptly
on the first of the month, w^ch is in strong con
trast With conditions which prevail^ when he
went into, office four years ago.
3. He is Friendly and Fair
To Labor and Capital Alike
The philosophy of Senator Nance is that labor
and capital are dependent upon each other, and
thaiHirither can survive or prosper without the
other. His trpe friendship to labor is shown by
the following letter from a recognised labor
leader:
SOUTH CAROLINA FEDERATION OF LABOR
Columbia, S. C.
Senator Carroll D. Nance,
Cross Hill, S. C. ^
Dear Mr. Nuice^
At your requesl l am glad to state, at the last
session of the General Assembly that you, as a
member of the Finance Committee of the Senate,
worked cooperatively with me to place upon the
Statute Books of this State a separate depart
ment known as the Department of Labof.
I recollect that you were On the sub-committee
of the Finance Committee that drew thi amend
ment to the bill that was enacted into law.
Yours very truly,
JOHN W. NATES, President,
South Carolina Federation of Labor.
Aug. 7, 1936.
,v
Increased
Voted and worked toward len^hening the
school term by state aid to seven months, thereby
reducing the local levies or enabling loc^ school
districts to have longer school terms. He is in
favor of A nine-month school terra fog «H the chil
dren of the county.
5. His Influence Aii Asset
His record as*a leader in the Democratic party
of this 8taU4uid aa4i delegate to the Democratic
Natidhal Convention shows that his ability and
influence are recognized in the party. This influ-
~ ence has made him of invaluAble*^ assistance in
securing federal projects fw Laurens county, in-
ciuding roads, schools, hospitals, etc.
~::Senator Nance has never atteiopted to assume dictatorial powers, hut did, nAien neces
sary for the interests of the people, and especially in the reduction of taxes, use his au
thority as senator to carry out his pledge to bring about rriief to the ^taxpayers of Laurens
County. 1 ,
