— Thank You —
I wish to express my sincere thanks to the voters
of Laurens County for the Second Highest vote re-
ceived for the House of Representatives in the.recent
primary election.
It h with a sincere feeling of gratitude and a sense
of deep humility that I ask you again for that same
loyal support in the coming run-off election Tuesday,
June 26th.
Once again I pledge myself to the following:
%
-— *
If elected to the Legislature. I shall do everything in my
power to encourage the industrial development of Laurens
County. I shall ENCOURAGE LOCAL INDUSTRY to expand
and create more jobs. OFFERING THEM THE SAME IN
DUCEMENTS AND PRIVILEGES AS THOSE EXTENDED TO
NEW INDUSTRIAL CONCERNS. * *
I shall work with and co-operate with the Laurens County
Planning and Development Commission, the State Planning
Board and other individuals to assure Laurens County of her
fair share of new industries coming to our state. I will vote to
employ a full time secretary for our Planning Board that they
may seek new industries to locate in our county.
I shall do everything possible to prepare our county and our
people for greater industrial growth in the years ahead that
our citizens may find employment in the county instead of hav
ing to seek jobs elsewhere.
-<j
I AM OPPOSED TO ANY TAX INCREASE. LOCAL OR
STATE. With the expansion of local industry and the addition
of new plants, more jobs will be available, new homes will be
built The taxes from this new property will increase the coun
ty’s income w ithout any increase in taxation.
CJ •
The Farm Income has dwindled and I am fully aware of
that fact I have many patients who are farmers and I have
discussed the problems related to farming. I believe that IN
DUSTRIAL EXPANSION IN OUR COUNTY WILL AID AND
ASSIST THE FARMER THREE WATS: First, it will provide
more local markets for farm products and produce. Second, it
will provide opportunity for members of the family to seek em
ployment; and Third, it will afford our farmers an opportunity
to go into some business to supply services or products to those
who are employed in our plants.
1 . . .
In spite of the much herald progress in this area, the per
capita income is still about 5600.00 less than the per capita in
come of the American citizen. This means that our county is
about 30 million dollars short of the national average per capita
income. We are citizens of America and we are deserving of
the American way of life. We should work to bring our per
capita income up to the national average.
If you want industrial growth for Laurens County, If you
want new jobs created in Laurens County, If you want more
payrolls for Laurent. County, by all means vote for a "»«*» who
will work to help bring it about. Vote for—
Dr. C J. HART

Lydia Reaches
One Million Safe
*
Man-Hours Mark
Lydia Cotton Mills recently
completed a period of over one
million (1,00<),000) safe man
hours without a disabling injury.
D. H. Roberts, superintendent,
commended all employees for
their efforts in making this rec
ord’ possible for the first time in
the mills’ 54-year history.
Mr. Roberts stated, “We are
proud of the, one million safe
man-hours, and even more proud
of the fact that during this period
not one of our employees endur
ed the pain and hardships of a
disabling injury."
For an individual to work safe
ly for one million man-hours,
working a 40-hour week, he
would have to work continu
ously for 25,000 weeks or 500
years.
A barbecue honoring all em
ployees and members of their
immediate household will be an
nounced at a later date.
