President Roosevelt Will Cause

The national government is now
making ready to print $1000.000.000
in silver certificates as quickly as
possible, as a result of the national
ization of silver.
President Roosevelt’s proclamation
and executive order seizing all do
mestic silver, except newly mined,
within ninety days will mean issu
ance of SI00.000.000 in new silver
certificate* ns rapidly “as the presses
can turn them out." Secretary of the
Treasury Morgcnthau said.
The seizure of silver has been
hailed by the congressional infla
tionary dIoc as a boon for farmers
from the standpoint that it will be
easier for them to pay off their
debts. Hard monev advocates, how
ever. have pointed out that the is
suance will be merely a “drop in
the bucket" to the S500.000.000 in

ANNOUNCEMENT
To the Voters of Baldwin County:
I wish to pay my respects to you
and announce, in this manner, that
I am a candidate for the office of
“Commissioner of Roads and Reve
nues'’ for Baldwin County.
My candidacy is subject to the
the
County Democratic Executive Com
mittee governing the Primary Elec
tion to be held September 12, 1934.
Below, I give my pledge as to
what my attitude will be is aegard
to the policies of county govern
ment as it relates to Economy, the
County Agent, the County Health
Officer, and the County Police. I
feel that my position in regard to
these matters is tht right one, and I
respectfully ask your endorsement
at the ballot box.
Efficiency in government should
be the first
board of cemmiarieoeru bat of the
tax-paying paMie as well.
Economy that curtails efficiency
is not economy. Bound economy
makes provision, first, for effliency.
If elected, I expect to advocate the
practice of rigid economy in every
department, j ara *ot* however, in
favor of destroying the usefulness
os! some department which is of in-
estimable value to the people
Baldwin county in order Ij effect
an immediate savirg of a few doV
ten.
I will vote to retain the County
Agent, for I feel that, under
conditions, it would bo a grave mis
take to dispense with that service
to the people of the county.
I will vote to retain the County
Health Officer, for I think that tberc
is no way to sum up tho good that he
does, in visiting the schools, giving
the different
contagious diseases.
I will vote for Police protection
in some form for the Public Roads
and the Rural communities of our
county. I confidently believe that,
before our 8iate Highway system is
developed much farther, the fitata
Legislature will pan aas sort of
e State Patrol law, such as many
states have already.
I served you as Commissioner of
Roads and Revenue; for a period of
six years beginning January 1, 1915
and ending December 81,1920. These
years embraced the period of the
World War, and I fee1 that tLf ex-
