Will make a good, honest, reliable representative. “My background and experience qualifies me for the office,” he said, “and will serve with dig nity and honor.” William H. McNinch said he is not tunning for office because of a personal axe to grind, “but since my profession is being used politically I feel it is only fair to let the voters know how I stand on the Safety Responsi bility Act, better known as the Liability Law. I am for abolish ing it entirely. Insurance was de signed for protection, not punish ment. Today it is being used as punishment. I feel insurance should be sold on its merits and not by law.” The county must continue to seek new industry, he said, and he favors industries that do not work our people as slaves. Vestus L.
