Rationing of gasoline and tires will make it impossible for me to see each one of you in this campaign, though I would like very much to see and talk with you. But one thing you may be sure of—I will do my best. In plain language I will do what I think is RIGHT and when I sit down in the office to sign your tax money away, I will not sign any claim for anyone frolicking or wast ing your tax money. I will do every thing in m y power to SAVE every penny I can. Just stop and think: Our boys from 20 to 45 are in the war now or will have to go soon ,and when this hav ens taxes will be more burdensome for the aged to pay as the cream of our young men will not be here to do their part. My record as your commissioner in 1939-1940 proves to you that I was against wastefulness and for every penny of your money spent records were kept showing when, where and what it went for. I also undertook to treat each dis trict fairly, giving each a square deal. We topsoiled about 150 to ?Q0 miles in each district affording bet ter travel for school buses, rural routes, and access to churches in every section of the county. I promised you in 1938 if you elected' me Commissioner (which you did) I would accept only $500, find that is what I received. Friends, you know who you want —you are to judge on the 25th of August & I offer you my record of trying to SAVE your money and in deed of SAVING IT and upon that basis ask your support again. I will do my best to treat everyone fairly, giving every section of the county due consideration, and I know that 1 can work in harmony with others in the office. “These are times that try men’s souls.” THINK and VOTE for one who HAS PROVED that he is for clean, honest, economical county gov ernment.
