BOIFEUILLET FOR PUBLIC SERVICE COMMISSIONER For a man to have held office con tinuously for the past thirty-five, years, as Honorable John T, Boif euillet boasts 01 having done, with never anything reflecting substan tial service in the various positions he has held, in America and in Eu rope, don’t you think it is time for a change? He has been the recipient of $30,000.00 in salary, with intre est at 6 per cent, since going on the Commission, and I charge that he has never done anything of sub stantial veluc for the masses of Georgia. On the contrary, he has given his time almost exclusively to newspaper work, for which he is paid a handsome salary, in violation of the law and his oath of office. He has voted against placing twen ty-one hundred small hsipping points in Georgia on an equal footing with thirty-odd large shipping points in Georgia, which, had his views pre vailed, would have resulted in great lose and handicap in the way of growth to the rural sections of Geor gia. It has been within his power since last January to have joined others and lowered rates on fertil izers and pulverized limestone, for agricultural purposes, if he cared to do so, with the result that countless! thousands of dollars wouV have been saved the farmers of on the 1924 crops.

KEGS osssS& PLAIN o* CHARRED WRITE FOR PRICES STAR COOPERAGE COMPANY ' 250 DECATUR ST. ATUIMTA, GA duties of his office today than he did hte day that he went in office, due largely to the fact that he has given his time to newspaper work, at the expense- and with great loss to the citizens of Georgia. Our State Highway Department is forced to incur an expense against the tax payers of the State of ap proximately $500,000.00 a year, be cause of the high rates maintained in Georgia on sand and gravel, as apply on such when moved from without the state into points in Georgia. He recently voted for the payment of an Engineer of over SIBOO.OO for -an inspection of pas senger coaches, which work he should have done himself. His recotd has been one of wasteful extrava gance of the funds provided for the work of the Commission, and with no substantial service to the people as a Commissioner. I believe he ought to be defeated, and if I am elected as his successor, I pledge a sane and equitable dis charge of all duties as one of your Commissioners, - and I will stay on the job. Office holding in Georgia, as a side line, must stop; office holding is practically all Mr. Boifeullet has ever done since young manhood. Respectfully, O. R. BENNETT, Eastman, Georgia.
