Farmers Urged
To Vote In
ASCS Election
An increased voting parti
cipation by the farmers of New
ton County is urged in this
year’s ASCS Committee Elec
tions. A large vote is especi
ally hoped for this year since
the Secretary of Agriculture
has emphasized the vital im
portance of the local admini
stration of our farm programs
by ASCS county and communi
ty committees.
This year the Secretary has
given added recognition to
ASCS county and community
committees. The regulations
have been changed to place the
responsibility for holding the
committee elections with the
county and community com
mittees now serving. In other
matters, also, the committee
men have been given enlarged
responsibilities.
By getting a large vote in
the elections this year, it will
insure that the committees
elected will be as representa
tive as possible of the farmers
they serve. All ASCS commit
teemen and ASCS County Of
fice personnel will exert every
effort to assure that the elec
tions will be properly and fair
ly conducted so as to reflect
credit upon our ASCS com
mittee system and the Depart
ment of Agriculture. Ballots
for voting for community com
mitteemen will be mailed to
all eligible voters of record on
or before August 15 and must
be postmarked or personally
returned to the county office
by August 25.
The county convention will
be held between August 28
and 31 for electing county
committees.

Many old-time Legionnaires

Commander Bohanan was one
of the most thorough pieces of
oratory ever heard at a Legion
Convention. His speech follows:
Mr. Commander, My Fellow .
Legionnaires:
Had I the oratorical ability I
and privilege of unlimited time,i
these being respectively denied i
me by nature and your Rules;
Committee. I would choose still 1
a brief and “Legionnaire to i
Legionnaire” nomination be- ■
fitting a true and record pro
ven Legionnaire.
As you well know the chief
responsibility of your Depart- :
ment Senior Vice-Commander;
is membership. Membership is
the ammunition of the Ameri- '
can Legion. You have heard it J
emphasized repeatedly as the.
at Dahlonega. He was recently
named manager of the Atlanta
Commercial and Professional
office of the Georgia State Em- .
ployment Service. He has been'
with the Employment Security
Agency since 1946. H*. will be
moving his family from Rome

islation. The man that 1 shall
nominate has a record in this
field that challenges any op
ponent. That record starts at
Po.st level. It is dedication to
the American Legion of this
man and those of his caliber
that year after year puts his
own Post well over quota.
When you go to consider your
Senior Vice-Commander for
the coming year we ask that
your start your consideration
on this Post level and deter
mine if the candidate’s own
Post has honored him by meet
ing it’s quota.
We would also cite vou the
record of the nominee as 4th
District Commander. Within
membership.
Your attention is also di
rected to the record of the
nominee in his current office
as a Junior Vice-Commander.
I would refresh your memory
that he obtained almost a one
hundred percent vote in the
face of opposition in election to
this office. He has justified that
vote by showing his area of
responsibility within the De
partment well out in front in
membership at the close of the
close of the year.
We cite you membership
only because this is what you
will expect chiefly from your
Senior Vice - Commander. In
every phase of the Legion pro
gram you will find his interest
and sincerity just as deep. This
interest and sincerity is pledg
ed to no faction, and has for
it’s only goal the good of the
American Legion.
Without reservation, and with
the deepest pride, on behalf of
Post 32 and the 4th District, I
place in nomination for the
high office of Senior Vice-
Commander a Legionnaire
whose dedication and record
yields to none —Ty Cason.
