SHERIFF
Newberry County
Being- unable to see each voter I am
using- this means to ask your support.
I promise a courteous, honest, sober,
effecient administration of the duties
of the office if elected.
To the Voters
of Newberry
County:
I n view of the fact that it
is physically impossible to see
each one of you personally,
won’t you permit me to say a
personal word or two through
the columns of this paper?
I hope you will not hold it
against me that I did not per-
] sonally contact each of you,
for I would have liked to shake
hands with every voter in the
district.
I respectfully solicit your vote
& ask that you inquire of any
body who knows me, as to my
character, ability and qualifi
cations. I have been active in
civic and church affairs, having
for many years taught the Bar-
aca class of the First Baptist
church of Anderson. I am a
graduate of Furman university
and the University of Virginia.
I am opposed to Pres. Tru
man’s so-called civil rights pro
gram as an invasion qf state’s
rights and as unconstitutional.
I favor farm relief to insure
our farmers an equal share of
the national income. I favor
the wages and hours law and
will always vote for the inter
est of those who earn their
! living by the sweat of their
brow. I favor tax reduction
when possible, especially for
those in the lower income
: brackets. I favor including in
. social security the self-employ-
I
ed. the farmers and business Here’s what Paul Haile will do if elected:
people on a voluntary basis. In
other wbrds. I will represent
the people of the Third district
under the principils of the
Golden rule and the teachings
of the Sermon on The Mount.
I am opposed to the veto pow
er of the Big Four in the Unit
ed Nations and favor an amend
ment permitting a veto to be
over-ridden by a two-thirds
vote of the Security council.
I especially ask that each of
you make sure that you cast
your vote on August 10th. The
only way you can lose your
vote is not to use it, and if the
good men and women of our
land are indifferent to their
right of suffrage, it may lead
to a dictatorship. We have our
right to vote at the price of
much precious blood; and if we
are to keep it, eternal vigilance
is the price of liberty. So please
vote, everyone of you, and if
you see fit to vote for me, my
only pledge is to do my level
best to represent you to the
full limit of my ability.
Many Thanks,
Leon L. Rice
Candidate for Congress.

My feHow citizens:
Since my full time work with the Spartan Grain
and Mill company makes it impossible for me to see
as many of you personally as I would like to see, I
am addressing this message to you through the news
papers and our Radio Station.
I am again offering you my services as Sheriff
of Newberry county. For 18 1-2 years I served you
as deputy and sheriff. I feel confident that those
of you who had any occasion to deal with my office
during that time found that always I tried to treat
everybody fairly and squarely and that I made every
effort to carry out the law and to administer the
duties of the office to the very best of my ability.
You found me courteous and anxious to render
every possible service. My record for the prompt
ness with which calls to my office for services were
answered is a good one. My feeling has always
been that when a citizen calls on the sheriff’s office
for service he needs it right then and not hours
later, or even the next day.
I balaeve also that you will agree with me that I
always sought to temper justice with mercy. I am
firmly convinced that our laws must be enforced at
all times fearlessly and without favor. The rec
ord will show that I followed that principle, of ac
tion as your sheriff. At the same time I believe
that sometimes when a man breaks the law and is
given a chance to redeem himself through the sym
pathy and interest and good counsel of his fellow-
citizens, he will from then on go straight and prove
to be a good law-abiding citizen.
When He was on earth preaching and teaching
His eternal gospel of understanding and sympathy
and tolerance, our Master believed in offering the
genuinely repentant another chance to make good.
As an officer of the law I always held to that policy.
Who of us is so perfect that he can afford to be in
tolerant?
It may be true that at times when I was your
sheriff before I made some mistakes. But they were
errors of the head and not of the heart. Sometimes'
one has to learn the hard way. I have traveled that
road and today I am stronger and better because of
the lessons I have learned. I ask you to give me
the opportunity to prove this beyond all question.
I know that I can and I will do it. Experience is
the greatest teacher of all.
In the very critical days that lie ahead of us,
where so much danger can arise by the stirring up
of prejudice and hate either deliberately or thought
lessly, it is absolutely necessary that all of us shall
pull together and work unitedly for the go*d of our
county, and our state, and our nation. Now,
more thn perhaps in many years, our county
needs a Sheriff who is courageous, resourceful,
energetic and alert every minute of the day
and night to the duties and responsibilities of
his position. I believe that I have the right to say
to you that I have shown those qualities as your
sheriff.
To discourage would-be criminals and to prevent
crime will always be more effective than to punish
lawbreakers after they have been arrested and found
guilty. (Criminals are going to stay away from a
county that they know has a sheriff who is constant
ly on the job and is not afraid to go after them.
If a man knows that he is sure to be caught and
convicted if he breaks the law, he will think twice
before he takes a chance. I ask you to vote for me
that as your sheriff I may help you to create and
maintain in our county a deep respect for law and
order. That is the kind of sheriff I am determined
to be if elected.
If you elect me your Sheriff this summer I pledge
you with my whole heart and soul • a sober, courte
ous, fearless and efficient administration and I will
live and work day and night to make all of you
proud of the fact that Tom Fellers is again sheriff
of Newberry county.
