Hoke S. Wilson
Is Candidate for
Representative
To the Citizens and
Voters of the 84th
Representative District:
As all of you know, Pierce and
Brantley Counties now have to
share a State Representative in
the 84th Representative District.
I am a candidate for this most
important office, subject to the
Democratic Primary to be held
on September 14th.
I have always believed that ev
ery county should have at least
one representative. However,
since this is no longer possible,
due to the rulings of the United
States Supreme Court, I am hap
py that the counties of Pierce and
Brantley were placed in the same
district. The two counties have a
lot in common, including family
ties, religious life, and agricul
ture. In fact part of Brantley
County was once a part of Pierce.
1 was Dorn in Brantley County,
and have lived there all my life,
except for time I spent in the
C.C.C. camp and the United
States Navy. I am married to the
former Miss Mary Bryan. We
have three children and three
grandchildren.
In 1962, the people of Brantley
County honored me by electing
me State Representative. In 1964,
I was reelected for another 2 year
term. The reapportionment of the
House of Representatives did
not allow me to serve but one
year to the term I was elected in
1964. While in the House of Rep
resentatives, I served on the
Welfare, Motor Vehicles and State
Institutions and Property Commit
tees. I was vice-chairman of the
Sub-Committee on Juvenile Mat
ters.
I believe that the experience I
have gained while serving as
Brantley County Representative,
plus the fact that I am a native
born son, aware of the needs and
problems of our people, amply
qualifies me to serve as your
representative.
I promise you that I will work
with all of the officials of both
counties in the securing of more
roads, more industry, and more
services for our district.
I am going to make a special
effort to see each of you, and dis
cuss my platform with you. If I
for some reason do not get a
chance to talk with you in per
son, please accept this as a per
sonal appeal for your vote and in
fluence.
Sincerely
HOKE S. WILSON 9-1

FOR OUR WORKING MEN & WOMEN.
I have proposed an Bth District Development Council which will work on
a district-wide basis with local groups to help bring in industries, jobs,
and tourists' dollars on which our future prosperity urgently depends.
This council will be composed of representatives from each of our 24
counties and will work in close cooperation with Congressmen to raise our
district from the bottom position it now holds in Georgia in terms of
industries, wages, and job opportunities.
In addition, as your Congressman, I shall also seek to provide for our
jobless citizens by sponsoring a program of tax credits for those industries
which will train and hire the unemployed.
These proposals represent the idea of the helping hand up --not a hand
out!
FOR OUR ELDERLY,
who are willing to work, I propose to raise the unfair SISOO ceiling on
the yearly amount a man can make from outside employment and still be
able to draw the maximum Social Security benefits he has earned. In a
time of runaway inflation and rising costs, the government has no right
to force over 6 million of our citizens, 65 years old and older, to live on
a yearly income lower than the level of poverty. The years over 65 are
healthy and productive years. I don't believe government should try to
turn an able and experienced man out to pasture until he's ready to go!
FOR OUR YOUNG PEOPLE,
I propose to ease the financial burden' of their education by seeking an
additional S6OO federal tax deduction for the parents of those young
people who - enrolled either in college or in vocation trade schools.
In addition, I pledge to work for more vocational schools and rehabili
tation centers as well as a much needed school for the deaf here in South
Georgia.
I pledge to seek the maximum financial benefits from existing federal
programs for education — while working to strengthen the maximum local
control over our educational efforts.
Young people will get the respect and recognition they have long been
denied.

FOR OUR FARMERS,
I pledge to promote the needed research both in forestry and in all types
of agriculture. I have pledged to seek greater funds for the Tile Drainage
Program to protect our tobacco and other crops from rain and flood damage.
I have pledged to work toward putting our tobacco back in competition on
the world market — thereby increasing the demand as well as the amount
of our allotted acres. Our farmers will be consulted and represented at
all times.
FOR OUR DISTRICT
I intend to work for the four-laning of our primary roads before the inter
state system puts many of our smaller communities out of business. Full
attention will be directed toward the long neglected development of our
great river basin in accordance with the people's, desires for purposes of
recreation, irrigation, and industrial usp. Fullest attention and-respect
will be given at all times to the needs and views of our local citizens.
Our people will never be forgotten.
FOR LOCAL CONTROL
I pledge to establish and maintain a close working relationship with state
and local officials who have been ignored in the past. • The government
closest to home is the safest and best government. I pledge to support
whatever legislation may be necessary — in light of a series of dangerous
decisions by the U.S. Supreme Court — to restore to our law enforcement
officers the traditional crime fighting powers they require for the protection
of our local communities and our citizens.
FOR OUR NATION,
I shall work for federal cooperation, rather than federal domination. I
seek to strengthen our forefathers' concepts of a conservative, constitu
tional government under God. I n contrast to the representation we have
had, I shall oppose, not approve, fiscal irresponsibility. I shall fight,
not support, foreign aid give aways. And I shall resist, not endorse, the
destruction of state's rights and individual freedoms along with the further
centralization of power in Washington.

"I believe, in the-words of Ecclesiastes, 'Whatsoever thy
hand findeth to do, do it.with all thy might.' I believe that
now, more so than ever before, we must join hands and work
together with all our might. For now, as never before, the
unity, the pride and the prosperity of our Bth District depend
upon the paths we shall follow and the decisions we shall
make.
