I I ) A- a 2-C—THE CHRONICLE, Clinton, S. C., Oct. 22, 1970 Dr. David T. Mixon TO County Council I believe in and will work for the following:: 1. Practical education for our young people. I believe that it should be the responsibility of our school systems to train our young people in those vocations and professions where trained people are needed here in Laurens County and thereby keep our young people at home. We need machanics, carpenters, plumbers, service people for heating, air conditioning, etc. Local in dustry needs trained people for many different vocations, merchants need trained sales person nel In order to accomplish this we need good guidance — counseling service within our school systems so that our young people's abilities can be determined at an early age and they can be guided into the field where their talents are and where jobs are available in Laurens County. If so trained they will then become working, useful tax-paying citizens. 2. County-wide water, sewer, garbage dis posal and fire protection services. Due to lack of sewer and garbage disposal services there is now a health hazard in many of the thickly popu lated areas around the edge of our towns. 3. There are federal funds available in the form of gifts and low-interest, long-term loans for aO these things and I believe that we should take advantage of them for all the things listed above. It's our tax dollars the Federal govern ment is handing out and I want to see Laurens County get bade every dollar we can for the above projects. If we don’t others will. 4. Laurens County should be in the Appa lachian District as are Greenville and Spartan burg Counties because there is more federal mon ey available in the iform of gifts when a county is so classified. If Laurens County was included in the Appalachian District I believe we would be able to accomplish the above programs with in the next few years with little or no tax in crease. Therefore, if elected to County Council I will try to eet this county added to the Appa lachian District as soon as possible. If you believe in accomplishing the above in a good-business-like-way then I will appreciate your vote and support now and on Nov. 3rd. News And Views BY MRS. AURELIA D. MOON HONORED BY PC—John I.
