Robert L Teague (faUUeal Advertisement) Place Ransome Williams on Guard In This Watchtower of Democracy WHO IS THIS MAN .WILLIAMS? Ttfi was bom in Orangeburg County 50 years ago; was educat ed in the schools of that county, and then moved to Mullins, Mar ion County. He is married to Miss Virginia Allen, daughter of the late Rev. J. I. Allen and Mn. Allen of Dil lon and is the father of two daughters who are teachers in the public schools of the State. He graduated in pharmacy at the Medical College of South Car olina, entered the-drug business, for six years was on the board of Pharmaceutical Examiners, and . was President of the South .Caro lina Druggists’ Association.’ He was Mayor of Mullins for eight yean and represented his county in the State Legislature in 1931 and 1932 as a House member. He is a trustee of Coker College of Hartsville and of the National Orphans Home of the Junior Or der of American Mechanics. He is in the drug business and he operates a large insurance agency, the latter being State wide in its coverage. J. WILLIAMS HE IS FOR THESE PRINCIPLES The first consideration of every South Carolinian is the winning of the war and the complete sub ordination of every governmental and civilian effort to that end. Taxation must be reduced to the minimum but not to the point of impairing efficient government The State’s public schools end colleges must be maintained at their present high point of effec tiveness; but its teachers must be paid salaries higher than the low subsistence level of the present, and more attention must be given now to a teachers’ retirement fund. And, too, a more generous attitude must be taken in regard to the State’s aged and inflnn. Farm problems and the rights of labor must be given full atten tion. Williams’ record in the House demonstrated his sympathy for and consistent support of both groups. Those are Just arrows pointing* to thfe liberal political philosophy of “this man Williams.” ' As president of the Senate I am resolved (rad I so pledge myself) to be impartial in my rulings and, when conference conferees are appointed by me—thoee men who must reconcile the differenrL between the two legislative branches m pending legislation—I will not allow my own views to nreiu- dice those selections, but I will appoint only the best men as conferees and only those who reflect the sentiment of the Senate.
