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 "
