Legislafive Candidafes Address
Women Vofers At Thursday Lunch
T.ocal candidates for the Georgia
Legislature were the guests of the
League of Women Voters of Ath
ens at a luncheon meeting on
Thursday, May 1. After a brief
business session conducted by the
Prdsident, Mrs. C. C. Wilson, Mrs.
Paul E. Pfuetze, Chairman of Vo
ters Service, introduced the can
didates.
Regresentative Paul Brown, un~-
oppxed for the United States
House of Representatives, was de
tained in Washington since Con
gress is still in session.
D. M. Pollock, unopposed for
re-election as Solicitor-General,
Western Circuit—Clarke, Oconee,
and Walton counties—expressed
his appreciation for the spirit of
cooperation in his district which
made his problems less onerous
than those of most other solici
tors of the State. :
A resident of Wilkes County
will represent that county as well
as Clarke and Oglethorpe in the
Georgia Senate this term. George
Byrum from the little-known
town of Ficklin told a humorous
story to illustrate how pleasant is
life in that town without tele
phones, He expressed his inter
est in being the representative of
Clarke County and spoke in favor
of the late primary “which would
prevent lame duck sessions” of
the Legislature. He approved pub
lic counting of ballots; and he ‘is
interested in broadening the base
of welfare benefits at the same
time requiring full and strict in
vestigation to be sure only those
eligible are included. John E.
Stoddard, Mr. Byrum’s opponent,
was unable to be present. Clarke
County does not vote in this race.
School Finances
REMEMBER MOTHER'S DAY, MAY 11TH.]
Chappelle Matthews, who ds
unopposed for his seat in the Leg
islature, spoke briefly on the
items that he regards as most im
portant during the next term of
office, He places first the finan
cing of schools and opposes a con
stitutional admendment or alloca
tion by constitutory law of funds
for school buildings. He stressed
also the need for strengthening
and improving the University
through addition to its budget. The
problem of cooperation between
state and city officials regarding
the building of roads through
towns needs to be further em
phasized. Welfare he recognizes as
one of our most vital problems but
it is highly controversial and will
need careful approach and study.
R. G. Stephens, jr., who cannot
succeed himself as State Senator
and is campaigning for the As
sembly seat held by Grady Pit
tard, explained his position on the
controversial “Electors Bill.” He
said that he violently opposed the
bill in principle and in effect but
that he was convinced the admin
istration supporters had sufficient
strength to pass the bill through
both Houses as first proposed. In
an effort to minimize the conse
quences of this limiting _of voting
rights, he with three other Sena
tors proposed an amendment to
limit its effectiveness to 4 years.
This compromise he felt was more
emphatic action against the bill
that simply voting against it
would have been.
Sample Ballot
Mr. Stephens also explained his
sample ballot: It is possible for
unscrupulous persons to duplicate
the paper and make-up of a bal
lot from a newspaper facsimile
and so to produce the offense
known as “stuffing the ballot.”

dacy for an endorsement term,

414 N. Thomas Phone 2582
THE BANNER-HERALD, ATHENS, GEORGIA
stressed that he had not on any
bill compromised either his own
beliefs or those which he felt were
approved by his censtituents. He
expressed the conviction that it
is wrong to take the right to vote
for any elective office from the
citizens and objected to the frac
tional vote as evidenced by the
county unit system. He called spe
cial attention to his stand on con
trolling the sale of alcoholic bev
erages and commented on the fact
that known criminals have been
able to secure liquor stores in
counties where such beverages
may be legally sold.
C. O. Baker, also running for
Mr. Pittard’s seat, reminded his
audience that a member of the
staff of the Tax Collector has been
made assistant registrar so that
would-be voters may register at
any time. He expressed cbncern
that so few persons register and
that so few of that group exercise
their franchise. To secure in
creased interest in voting he rec
ommends a late primary, suggest
ing the old-time customary second
Monday in September.
Good Team
Mr. Baker noted that he and
Mr. Matthews worked well to
gether during the 1949-50 Legis
lature and cited as evidence of
their effective cooperation: the
securing of highway patrol for the
county; the paving of the Prince
ton road; the farmers’ market; the
building fund which enabled the
University not only to save the
half million willed it for a library
but also to build two new dormi
tories.
In response to a question from
the floor, Mr. Baker explained
that he felt a study of welfare ad
ministration by a professional
survey group would be expensive
and inadequate. Welfare legisla~
tion, he argues, is a political prob
lem and a study by a legislative
committee is more likely to pro
duce satisfactory and impartial
results. He cited the separate
surveys of education by the Stray
er Committee and by the legisla
tive committee and the resultant
legislative action.
Mr. Stephens was asked to com
ment on the welfare reorganiza
tion bill passed at the last session.
He stated that he felt the bill was
a salutary one in that it corrected
some evils but that care must be
taken to see that welfare did not
become a political football; assis
tance should be based on need but
child and parent ability to aid
relatives should be considered.
