FINAL APPEAL
TO THE VOTERS OF FORSYTH COUHTY...
This Is my final appeal to you for your vote and support for Post 1 Member of the Forsyth
County Board of Commission, in my runoff race on September 29, 1972. Words can's express
my appreciation to you for the large vote you gave me in the Primary. YOU were just WONDERFUL.
This race has boiled down to two main issues which will affect all our lifes and fortunes. They
are: 1-Property Tax Reduction and 2 - Orderly planning for the growth of this county. The issues
are clear cut and my position is the same. lam for reduction of Property Taxes in this county
and have been for some time. My opponent has told you that he will promise you nothing regarding
this m6st important issue. Had I not believed it possible to reduce property taxes in this county,
I would have never entered this race. To me this is the most urgent matter facing our people.
When our elderly citizens on fixed income have to do without medicine and food to hold on to
their modest dwellings, when our young people have no opportunity to ever own a home in which to
raise their families, it’s past time to do something about this situation. If you elect me as your
Commissioner, I shall do all within my power to secure other sources of revenue in order to
provide this overdue relief to our property owners. I personally prefer an increase in sales tax
as this appears to be a fairer tax that allows everyone receiving benefits to help pay for. I
would also go along with a modest increase in the Georgia Income Tax. A guarantee of a reduc
tion in our property taxes would have to be written into our Constitution before I would support
these measures.
In the matter of orderly zoning, I could approach this situation without any possible conflict
of interest as I am not engaged in the sales or rental of Mobile or Modular homes nor am I in
the land speculation business. If elected, I shall request the Board of Commissioners to set up a
brand new Zoning Board, with staggered terms. None of the members of this Board could be
Involved in the land speculating business or any other type business that would permit any member
to benefit by setting the zoning rules to serve them rather than all us taxpayers. It’s UNFAIR
to have people purchasing land fo speculate on and then changing the use of it for their profit.
This won't happen if you elect me.

As for the rumors you have heard regarding my. opposition to mobile homes, ignore them. I
am not opposed to them but I am opposed to the concentration jf large numbers on small areas.
This creates people pollution and does a disservice to the helpless children jammed in a small
place with no playground. I would require any other large mobile home parks to provide paved
streets, playground area, bus stop shelters and a security guard if at all possible. These helpless
children should be allowed to enjoy a few nice things in life.
In regards to apartment complexes, I would require that the developers provide modern sewerage
systems, playground areas, parking and paved streets. I just can’t believe that our county should
provide a dumping ground for the people leaving the problems of the adjoining counties and an
opportunity to take advantage of our disorderly planning ip order to benefit a few large money
hungry speculators. They would be invited to develop up to date, modern apartment units that
would benefit us all. These people will not be allowed to come in here and tell us what to do if
I am elected. I would listen to them as well as other people and then act to benefit us all.
In closing, allow me to inform each of you that I have financed and run my campaign without
committing myself to any special group. I am not indebted to the land speculators, special Interest
groups, nor to any persons other than the common people of this county. 1 have refused and shall
continue to refuse any contribution to my campaign. The only contribution I have accepted was
$5.00 from one of my elderly friends. I did this, not to benefit me, but to avoid hurting his
feelings.
Consider the above issues - Consider my business experience - Consider my educational
background - Consider my interest in Forsyth County, COMPARE with my opponents’
ground and experience. Use these facts - Make your decision and vote for the person best able
to work for you. If this happens to be my opponent, by all means vote for him or you will be
doing you and your county a disservice. The same would be true in regards to voting for me.
Sincerely,
J. LANIER BANNISTER

Mrs. Bebe Smith of Atlanta
has been named Coordinator of
the McGovern - Shriver Cam
paign in Georgia.
The announcement of Mrs.
Smith’s appointment was made
in Washington by Eli Segal,
Southern Regional Manager of
McGovern’s Presidential Cam
paign.
Segal stated that the appoint
ment of Mrs. Smith as a full
time coordinator of the state
wide campaign effort in Georgia
underscored George McGov
ern’s determination to wage a
vigorous campaign in Georgia
and throughout the South.
“Senator McGovern under
stands the problems of the South
far better than President Ni
xon,” Segal said, and he added
that he hoped Southerners would
understand George McGovern
far better in November than
they do now.
Mrs. Smith is a native of
Americus, Georgia. She att
ended the University of Ge
orgia and the past 10 years has
resided in Atlanta. She is mar
ried and has a 12-year-old son.
Mrs. Smith’s political exper
ience includes a term as Execu
tive Director of the Fulton
County Democratic Party. She
joined the National Staff of the
McGovern Campaign in Feb
ruary and worked throughout
the South for his nomination.
Mrs. Smith was herself a dele
gate to the Miami Beach Con
vention from Georgia’s Fourth
District.
When asked to comment on
her appointment, Mrs. Smith
replied that she was “thrilled”
to have the opportunity to par
ticipate in the McGovern-Shri
ver campaign effort. As coor
dinator, she will be responsi
ble for campaign activities and
operations throughout the State.
Mrs. Smith is optimistic ab
out McGovern’s chances for
victory in Georgia and through
out the nation. “We’re confident
of victory,” she said. “Once
Georgians become familiar with
Senator McGovern and get to
know him better, they’ll support
him.”
McGovern’s Georgia Coor
dinator plans a campaign thai
will give the ticket statewide
exposure. “We’re not writing
off any part of the State,”
said Mrs. Smith. “We’re going
all over the State to see as many
people in as many places as we
can.”
