■—The U. S. Senatorship—
HERE ARE THE RECORDS
1. Thomas W. Hardwick**
first conspicuous act was to
vote In Congress to raise his
own salary 33 1.3 per cent.
2. Mr. Hardwick fought the
Parcel Post the greatest boon
the farmers have had In a gen
eration. He boasts that he still
opposes It.
3. Mr. Hardwick fought Pres
ident Wilson’s new currency
plan which the Wall 6treet
bankers opposed. This new law
will enable the farmers of the
United States to borrow $500.-
000.000.00. The proportion to
Georgia will be $10,000,000.00.
The farmers will be able to bor
row on cotton, corn, live-stock
and produce.
4. Mr. Hardwick turned the
facilities of the Government
Printing Office In Washington
over to a paid lobbyist. He has
been using the Government
franks to send his speeches
broadcast to promote his can
didacy for Senator.
5. Mr. Hardwick has not an
swered a dozen roll-calls In
“three months. He Is drawing
down $'8.40 a day from the Na.
tlonal Treasury as a Represen
tative of ti.e Teath District.
6. Mr. Hardwick while pro
claiming bombastically through
out the State that he cut the
duty from sugar, the record Is
against him. He was Chairman
of Committee to Investigate
the Sugar Trust. In his report
of thirty-two pages not one
word can he found about reduc
ing or taking the tax off sugar.
(See report 331, Sixty-second
Congress. Second Session.)
7. During his twelve years
In Congress. Mr. Hardwick has
not been the author or the
chief promoter of any one nota
ble act.
Mr. Slaton put over the Inheritance Tax Law which
many others had recommended but not produced.
Put over the Revised Registration Law which others
had failed to get through.
Reduced the State's expenditures for the first time in
forty years.
Protected the State’s credit and financial standing by
borrowing money for Georgia at 3 per cent when neigh
boring States were paying 7 per cent.
Fought for and put over the Tax Equalization Law,
which has put millions of formerly unreturned property
on the tax books.
He saved the State's credit and made it possible at
the same time to lower the tax rate.
Redeemed in a year his pledges as Governor, and
accomplished more constructive work during that pe
riod than had been done in ten years before.
HE IS THE BEST TRAINED PVBLIC MAN IN GEORGIA.
John M. Slaton State Campaign Committee
ALFRED C. NEWELL, Quirmac J. A. MORROW, Secretary
