Slaton. Governor Slaton asks voters to examine his past record as a servant of the state. Will support principles of Democracy if elected. He enlarges on his platform and explains every plank to voters, and pays his respects to his opponents. GOVERNOR SLATON WRITES A CARD TO CEORCIA VOTERS (Continued From Page 1.) This, I submit, is a subject which calls for the highest statesmanship. I shall support all measures calcu lated to assist the farmers in market ing their products, particularly such as will tend to relieve them of the tolls levied by unnecessary agencies between them and the consumer. I shall favor government aid in pub lic road-building; but adhering to the homely philosophy that you can help only those who help themselves, I shall insist that such aid be ap;,or-j tioued in accordance with what toe States or counties contribute, and that the States or counties shall have full control. I favor good roads in Geor gia more than good roads in the Philip pines or railroads constructed by the government in Alaska. Replies to Criticisms. Messrs. Hutchens and Cooper ap pear tn be conducting their own cam paigns and are co-operating in rto joint attack upon me. Neither has accused me of double-dealing or cow- J ardice, and with the issues they raise I have dealt fully. Messrs. Hardw ick and Felder seen.' to be gambling between themselves foi the Senatorship, as shown by theii ' co-operative attacks on me and pleas ant, almost eulogistic, references to ■ each other. | i Has the lcser been promised r» choice Federal office for joining in j the effort to defeat me? They seem thoroughly to understand each othe 7- . Does the political firm of Hardw'ica & Felder plan to "kill Slaton" in or der that one of these men, neither showing notable public or private achievement, shall go to the senate and the other as an appointive official also dig his fingers into the na tional treasury The firm is hard-pressed for reas ons to urge against my candidacy and they clearly seek for reasons to urge against me, rather than argu ment in their own behalf. They say I stand for nothing, and then assert that, when I staked my political future on saving the Stata government from financial disaster, i v ; . ! THfe AMERICUS DAILY TIMES-RECORDER. stood for too much. They say I should have resigned as governor; yet each of them has de set ted the post to which the people assigned him, one by quitting and the other by seif-granted leave —and love taps pass between them. They assailed me because the State j committee adopted the Unit rule and i then denounce me on the untrue score of having opposed its adoption. They attacked me because I can and pay for postage and adver tising space in the newspapers, while one of the members of the Firm loads I the mails with campaign matter sent Jout at government expense and hea”s faint criticism from his running part ner. j We are all democrats. The one fundamental issue is which of us is best suited to represent Georgia and further Democratic principles in the Senate <?f the United States. Discusses Mr. Hardwick's Record. Mr. Hardwick’s twelve years service ■ in the low'er house of Congress may, J as he claims, qualify him as an aspir ant for the Senate. But his estimate of experience has undergone tremendous revolution since he urged against his able pred ecessor the high importance of con stant change. A veteran in Congress and suppos edly within the inner circles of his party which controls Mr. Hardwick— senior member of the political firm of Hardwick and Felder—is Chairman of the Committee on Weightß and Measures; and a member of one other Committee—Rules! He has been the author of no im portant legislation. His first conspic uous vote was for a bill—fathered by Republicans—to raise his owrn salary. Only recently he won national no toriety by one remark of the Speaker who had the greatest opportunity of measuring the man. In his effort to establish a record Mr. Hardwick reaches backward through the years, and claims negro j disfranchisement as a great individual achievement. Yet, in the same sen fence, admits his effort was so weak j that he commanded but three votes I for the bill which he urged. The premise to repeal the four teenth and fifteenth amendments was (Continued on page seven.) Public School Notice. GEORGIA—Sumter County.
