botM child ran and adult* at to why I
carry ia my pocket sack a fall display
of pens and pencils, as follows: Two
fountain pent, three Ever-ready pen
cils and mne common lead pencils,
making 14 in all. And 1 formed the
habit since I have been your servant
in the House of Representatives.
They are used to underscore bills that
I think ought not to be enacted into
law. Bob-tail bills and riders are
the most dangerous introduced in the
closing hours of the sessions and have
to be handled with care.
When, Where and How are three
words which mean success in every
walk of life, if mastered: When to
act, Where to begin and How to pro
ceed.
The best horse I ever owned was
not without faults and defects. In
other words, he was not perfect, but
he did efficient work and satisfied me.
Therefore, I could not afford to trade
him off on account of hia faults and

whan I went to the Legilsatare I
don't say that you ara not paying
more taxes, because you have voted
and put on extra school taxes hare,
there and yonder until the taxes are
high, hut 1 did not vote them on you,
you voted them on yourselves. Now,
let’s see what the expenses of the
Chaingang which you have heard so
much about, have been during my ad
ministration and just previous. When
Mr. Kennedy’s father was in the
Senate he passed a hill re-organizing
the County Commissioner’s office and
appointed a hoard. That board the
year before I was elected spent $47,-
500 to run the Chaingang. The next
year, although we only appropriated
$30,000 for the Chaingang, they spent
$45,500 to run the Chaingang. We
changed the board immediately and
since that time the present board has
only spent on an average of approxi
mately $25,000 per year to maintain

delegation. Senator Brown. Mr. Har
ley and myself, stood solidly for this
program and I believe anybody in the
Legislature will tall you that if the
Barnwell County Delegation had not
supported this bill it would not have
gone through. Now, the Highway
Department has taken over all of our
surface-treated roads and have enter
ed into an agreement with us to con
vert our surface-treated roads either
into asphalt or cement roads when
and as they wear down. What more
could one delegation of three men get
for Barnwell County than we got for
Barnwell County? There has been
no dissention or differences in the
delegation. We have worked together
faithfully and will continue to work
faithfully for the best interest of all
of the people.
Now, I have been criticized for ac
cepting the extra expense money that
was voted at the last session of the

one account under the State Traaa-
urer, instead of each separate depart
ment, and there are some fifty of
them, having separate bank accounts.
Then when one of these departments
has to borrow money during the year,
like the State Superintendent of Edu
cation has to borrow hundreds of
thousands of dollars, he goes to the
State Treasurer, borrows the money
from the general fund and the State
get* the interest instead of sending it
to Wall Street. You can ask the Sen
ator of our county if he did not come
over to the House and beg us to hold
on day after day and week after week
until he could get this Pooling Bill and
these other measures through for the
Governor. Have we then committed
any crime by staying there at the re
quest of the leaders and putting
through Important legislation and hav
ing our expenses paid for overtime?

Tha Legislature cannot make tW wit
nesses and the lawyers try casts any
better than they do. My friend, Mr.
Kennedy, says that if he to elected
he will not ask that hia cases be put
off, because he is g member of tha
Legislature. I doubt if he would, the
way things are going now, because he
does not seem to have any cases much.
If he got elected and got some cases
on that account he would either have
to put them off during the Legislature
or neglect the ,business of the people
who elected hijn to go to Columbia.
Now, that doe s not interest me, be
cause I have not got any cases. I at
tend to my business, both at home
and in Columbia, and if he will attend
to his affairs as I sm attending to
mine, wc will all get along better.
