(Jefferies was governor for several months in 1142.) He argued that "it's going to be hard to sell SanteeCooper power and the general manager should be de voting every hour of his time to that job. Until yon remove the political graft from SanteoCooper it will never be a success. “I don’t believe there are a half- dosen people in this House that be lieve Jefferies really means to mn for governor, but when he says he might it puls him in a political trad ing position.’’ Kennedy said sarcastically that Jefferies was a ’’superman” if he had “been doing five people’s work” as ’’ has bepn satd.” He based much of his criticism on toe authority's annual report which he said “glosses things over.” |Ie compared Santee-Coopw unfSY- orably with the Tennessee Valley Authority with regard to salaries, vol ume of power production and annual revenue, saying TVA’s income last year waa $18,000,000 and Santee- Cooper’s only $22,000. “Can you find in these figures any reason for paying salartea on the same level as those paid in TVA?” he asked.

This reduction surely can, and must, be brought about. This can be done by passing to the consumer the reduction in rates given to the city by the wholesaler. - ~ Again, our^ rates can be reduced by curbing use less spending of the city’s money. This will also help to reduce the outrageous rate of city taxes we are now paying. 1 believe that if all the revenue received bv the city is spent conservativelv, that the would be in a position to build and have ample Recreational facilities for the teen-age boys and ^Is of our city. Also, to pave the unpav^ streets of our city that none of us are at all proud of. I also advocate -having a published Financial Re port from the city^ at least, every dx months, in order that the taxpayers and electric current conflumeii will know how much revenue is received by the city and how much money has been spent in tiie dty eveary six months. You have a right, as tax paying dtizens, to know this. I also believe that bringing all the InduatziiMi to our dty that we possibly can get (and 1 mean work to get th^) will make pay rolla that certainly will be spent in Camden, and therefore increase the population of our town and stimulate buaineM of every kind in our city, and in doing this, will con tribute in a large way to the development of our city in every way. Therefore, on the platform I djetributed in eveiv home in Ward Four, 4 weeks ago, I earnestly spUcit S support in the Primary Election in Max^'^prom- , if elected, td show my appreciation by w^wWig to get the thing done that I believe yon wonlo like to (have done; also, pron^ng to cooperate one hundred per cent in the Town Councti in anything that ^1 make our dty a progrwBive city.
