For a man to have held office con
tinuously for the past thirty-five
years, as Honorable John T. Boifeuil
let boasts of having done, with never
anything reflecting substantial ser
vice in the various positions he has
held, in America and in Europe, don’t
you th-.ik it is time for a change?
He has been the recipient of $30,-
000.00 in salary, with interest at 6
per cent, since going on the Commis
sion, and I charge that he has never
done anything of substantial value
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 plac
ing twenty-one hundred small ship
ping points in Georgia on an equal
footing with thirty-odd large ship
ping points in Georgia, which, had
his views prevailed, would have re
sulted in great los^ and handicap in
the way of growth to the rural sec
tions of Georgia. It has been witliin
his power since last January to have
joined others and lowered rates on
fertilizers and pulverized lime
stone, for agricultural purposes,
if he cared to do so, with the result
that countless thousands of dollar i
would have been saved the farmers
of Georgia on the 1924 crops. 1
charge that he knows no more about
the l chnical duties of his office tb-
day than he did the day that he
went n office, due largely to the fact
that ho has given his time to news*
paper 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 $600,000.00 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 $1800.00 for air
inspection of passenger coaches,
which work he should have done him
self. His record has been one of
wasteful extravagance of the funds
provided for the work of the Com
mission, and with no substantial ser
vice to the people as a Commissioner.
I believe he ought to be defeated,
and if I am elected as his successor,
1 pledge a sane and equitable dis
charge of all duties devolving upon
me 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 prac
tically all Mr. Boifeuillet has ever
done since young manhood.
Respectfully,
O. R. BENNETT,
—Adv. Eastman, Gebrgia.
