Don Murray, Delores Michaels County Chairman Issues Statement R L Plaxko, Democratic Chair- nr:m for Laurens County, this week issued the following statement: "As chairman of the Laurens County Democratic party. I wish to sav thanks ami express my appro- ciation to all wlw worked for the IVnifH'ratic ticket in Laurens Coun ty on election cl»> My special thanks to all those 4.550 voters who remairtedloval to atxl voted for the Democratic nominee "Although 1 was tvot physically able to take an active part in the campaign and was forced to confine my efforts to the telephone and ra dio. I was delighted that the Demo crats carried more than three- fourths of the nrecincts and kept Laurens County along with South Carolina in the Democratic col umn ".Another thing that pleased me very hvueh was the fact that the so- ealli-d religious issue did not enter into the voting here in Laurens County Of course. I am sure that some voted ag.anst Mr. Kennedy on account of his religious affiliation, but it was not a paramount issue with the voters as a whole. "To those who voted for the Dem- ocrats I am grateful. To those who voted otherwise I have no unkind feelings Many of my personal friends did not vote as I did, but I sincerely say to them that it has not lessened my friendship for them one iota and 1 truly hope they feel the same way. I think President-Elect Kennedy has given the whole nation an in spiring examnle of friendliness when he visited Vice-President Nix on for the purpose, among other 1 things, of "resuming the cordial relations that existed betwxien the two men who have served their ebuntrv together for the past four- tevn years It is my fervent hope that the same spirit of cordial relations will I revail here in Laurens County and in South Carolina ami m the nation as our le.tders strive to maintain world peace with honor " Mrs. Killen Mrs /loa Cov.an Killen. 76. of Greenville, widow of Clifford J. i Killen. lied Saturday at 3:15 p. m at her home following three years of declining heach.
