Citizen Says
Mr. Jim Davidson, Editor
Cleveland Courier
Cleveland, Georgia
Dear Editor:
May I have my say in your let¬
ters to the editor section of your
paper as to what should be done
about the old court house?
In my opinion the voters of
White County would not have voted
“yes” to the bond issue if they
had been planning to renovate the
old building. I aim confident that
the men who planned the new
building gave careful consideration
to the amount of space ithat was
needed to carry out all the court
house activities in the new build
, [
I ing without having to use any
space in the old one.
I am confident that these same
people who oppose the removal of
the building now would, after its
removal, agree that it helped the
appearance and beauty of the town.
The space now taken by the court
house can after its removal be used
for a small park or have the high¬
way run straight through town,
something similar to ClarkesviUe.
I think the people, and the Com¬
missioners, should give careful con¬
sideration as to the expense of
keeping this old delapidated build¬
ing up even after its restoration,
not to mention how much this
would cost. In my opinion we have
better ways of spending the tax¬
payers’ money than restoring some¬
thing we don’t need.
I 1 Yours truly,
A CONCERNED CITIZEN. J

INSTRUCTIONS
For Marking
BALLOTS
Prior to the opening of the polls, poll officers
shall post one card of instructions for marking
ballots in each voting compartment,
1. To vote a straight party ticket, mark a cross
(X) or check (?) mark in the square in the
party column, opposite the name of the party
of your choice.
2. If you do not desire to vote a straight party
ticket, then place a cross (X) or check (/) mark
in the square opposite the name of each can¬
didate you choose to vote for.
3. To vote for the entire group of Presidential
Electors nominated by a party, mark a cross
(X) or check (/) mark in the square opposite
the names of the party's candidates for Presi¬
dent and Vice President.
L To vote for a person whose name is not on the
Ballot, manually write his name, accompanied
by the title of the office involved, in the write
in column.
If you spoil your ballot, do not erase, but ask
for a new ballot. Use only pen or pencil.
Regardless of your politics
You for Senate Candidate l
can vote I
W. E. HAMPTON
AND your President and Congressman
by placing only THREE X's on your ballot!
HERE IS HOW:
DO NOT put an X in either of the party blocks ot the
top of the ballot.
Simply put an X in the block beside the name of the
Presidential and Congressional candidate for whom you
wish to vote; then put an X in the block beside the name
of W. E. HAMPTON which appears in the third column.
DO NOT scratch out any names.
All the remaining candidates are unopposed and no
other marking is necessary.
By doing this you can be SURE that your ballot is
properly marked and will be counted.
