In announcing his candidacy
for Congress, John C. Taylor, of
Anderson, has re-affirmed his po
sition of eight years ago that A-
merica should adopt, and follow
through to successful conclusion, a
far-reaching program of national
defense that will leave no doubt in
the minds of international thugs
that the United States will not
tolerate invasion of her rights or
conquest of her territories. Mr.
Taylor has always advocated a
strong preparedness program for
the United States, contending that
it is our best insurance of peace.
The soundness of Mr. Taylor’s
views is errohasized by interna
tional developments In general
during the last few years, and
particularly in recent months.
“I know that Americans want
peace, and believe in peace so long
as it can be maintained honor
ably,” he said. “But it is unadult
erated lolly to seek peace in a
world filled with international
banditry, without a defense force
second to none in the whole world.
We must serve notice on the inter
national thugs and dictators that
we will tolerate no attempt to in
vade our rights or grab our pos
sessions. As Americans, we have
not lost sight of the fact that the
blessings of this Democracy, in
cluding religious freedom, and the
rights of our people to enjoy free
speech and a free press, were
bought of the blood of our fore
fathers, who resisted tyranny with
shot and steel. It is a noble heri
tage and we are willing to pay
that price again to maintain it.
“As a general principle, I am
opposed to sending our boys to
Europe to engage in the
age-old conflicts that are
born of the hates and
intrigues of that hemisphere. We
should give every material assis
tance to the Allies, short of man
power, determining all the while
JOHN C. TAYLOR
to put our own house in order for
any eventualities here at home.
“I am in full sympathy with the
defense program laid down by
President Roosevelt.”
Mr. Taylor was first elected ii
Congress in 1932 and served th~
Third District for three consecu
tive terms. He is a native of An
derson County and for twelve
years served as clerk of court.
As a youth he worked for years
in the Chiquola Mill, obtaining his
education there and later at the
University of South Carolina by
working his way through school.
He is a World War veteran, per
sonally and politically a dry, is
married and has two sons.
