JOSEPH F. GRAY, of Savnnah, JOSEPH o GRAY :
candidate to suceed himself as Rail- . .
aneiaculh R e Candidate for Railroad Com
is a native Georgian, born in missioner
Atlanta. He started his career in the railrozd business in 1888, and up
to 1909 served various railrcad lines, ail in Georgia, with signal ability
and success, and with rapid promction from clerical to executive posi
tions. In 1909 at the invitation of the business men of Savannah, who
desired a high-ciass man, with recognized executive ability, to take the
helm of its Chambker of Commerce, Mr. Gray gave up
his railroad career for pullic life. The position which
he occupies in Savannah is the highest evidence of his standing
in his own community as to character and citizenship. In the sum
mer of 1909 a vacancy cccurred on the railroad commission. The Gov
ernor in looking over the State for a man thoroughly qualified to fill the
vacancy tendered the office to Mr. Gray. Mr. Gray, therefore, is
not a professional office seeker. In his case the office sought the man
and not the man the office. In the primary of 1910 Mr. Gray was elect
ed by the pecple to fill the une>pired term which up to that time he
had keen filling under appointment. Mr. Gray now seeks a full term at
the hands of the people. Naturalily, as a matter of personal pride, Mr.
Gray asks for an endorsement by the people of his record during the
past three years, to which he points with pride. It is conceded without
cavil or question throughout the State that Mr. Gray is one of the
ablest men on the Ccmmission. His long transportation experience
gives him an irsight into the practical side of the problems that con
front the Commissia®, As a transportation expert Mr. Gray has henn of
tremendous help to his golleagues cn the Commission, who have time
and again expressed their recognition and appreciation of his assist
ance in the solution of problems requiring practical transportation kniowi
edge. Not a single, solitary one of Mr. Gray’s opponents has his ex
pert transportation knowledge, and he is the equal of any of them,
in all of the qualities that make for high character and exaited citizen
ship. The railrcad commission represents the State at large and not
any particular section thereof, and Mr. Gray’s past record os the Com
mission is in entire accord with this principle. It is fitting, however,
that in the selection cf Railroad Commissioners a prcper regard shouid
be had for geographical considerations. South Georgia, because of her
rapidly increasing commercial importance, and Savannah, Georgia’s ocean
gateway, the greatest seaport onthe Scuth Atlantic—are certainly en
titled under every principle of political equity, to representation on the
Railroad Commission. Mr. Gray enjoys the unique distinction of being
the first Savannahian to serve on the Railroad Commission during its
entire existence of thirty-three years. Ignoring the efforts of his oppon
ents to raise purely political or “vote.catching” issués in this campaign,
Mr. Gray recognizes but one issue “fitness for the job,” and on that issue
Mr. Gray has all his opponents “skinned a mile.” In seeking re-elec
tion at the hands of the people, Mr. Gray announces a very brief and sig
nificant platform:
Fitness, the Oath of Office and Record on the Commission during the
Past Three Years.”
