The state Is spending $1,000,000 on

He said the legislature had
passed a reorganization bill and'
was seeking to find some way to
cut down the number of bureaus.
IlMuhaw county, be said, is in
excellent financial shape.
Referring to the recreation' fund

opposed all progressive steps. l|e

he was elected he would do tbs

would not seek extra oompeasatloa.
Wouldn’t get half way through the
Job and then ask for more pay.
He said he didn’t know of any
surplus funds In the county. There
were some in the sinking fund that
were being turned back into the
county treasury as the sinking fund
was telng abolished. Has no objec
tion to recreation fund if money
if spent wisely. Thinks surplus
should be spent for benefit' of all
of the people. ’Thought it would be
better to build roads with the
money so that every one would
benefit.
Said we- had a good- achool srs-
tern but the acbools were rather
crowded. Some money could be
spent on tbem.,^ Somo money could
be spent on the hospital .
I Said we are all spending too
much money. Might be a good idea

- Said he was bom and reared on
a farm. Paid high tribute to the
farmers. What would we do with
out them?
He again thanked the people of
Kershaw county for the fine vote
given him in other races and
promised to do his best If elected.
John Rabon
John Rabon. last of the candi
dates for the House to apeak, open
ed by urging the voters to place
their names on the Democratic
club rolls so that they could vote
in the primary and that they get
their reidstration certificates in or
der that they might be prepared to
vote in the general Section.
He said he had served the people
of the county 16 years, sii years
as magistrate, eight *yeara on the
county board and two years In the
House of Representatives. He said
his experience as a member of the
county board had been useful to
him as it gave him a familiar in
sight into county affairs.
No one is more interested in
schools than be is. he said, al
though he didn't have the advant
age of the present day schools
when he was growing up.
He said what grieved him is that
while we have enjoyed what our
forefathers fought and died for we
are turning things over to the
coming generation in a bad mesa.
He referred to the hypocrites in
Washington who call themselves
Democrats and whom we have fol
lowed “like IRtle yellow dogs tied
to a string.”
“Those agitators up there.” he
said “want "to do things that will
cause the blood of our people to
spill all over the South'.” He said
his daddy wore a red shirt and he
pledged tha^t he would never put a
dark spot on it.
Mr. ^bon. thep attacked the ex
tra pay for legislators. He said the
legislature of 1944 tried to put a
stop to this extra pay business by
providing a fee of $1,000 per ses
sion for members! Yet in 1947 they
voted themselves $700 extra money.
He said if this was not stopped
what would there be to prevent
them from voting themselves two
or three thousand dollars in the fu
ture? He said the way to stop it
was to elect men who are opposed
to it
He made a vigorous attack'on
the recreation appropriation. He
aald that tee county should not
furnish money for anyteing other
than the essentials of operating the
government. He asked what could
be done when the negro stepped
in and demanded an appropriation
for recreation. It’s wrong, he-said,
to take the taxpayer’s money and
build playgrounds for people to go
to frolic and have a big time.
He said he wanted the county
to have a surplus at all time and
to-be strong.
The candidates were asked If
they wished any time in rebuttal.
RepreseDtatiye Arrants read a
letter to prove that Repreaentative
Arrants had accepted extra pay
whilo a member of thb Honse. ’The
salary then was $400 and It was
