In making a statement as to his with
drawal this morning Mr.. Voiland said:
II believed several months ago that 1t
would be possible for me to arrange
my affairs SO that I could devote my
time to the office of state representa-
tive. However, I find that l cannot do
so. The only thing left therefore, is
to withdraw at this time when it will
not embarrass the party nor my friends.
Personally, 1 would prefer to. stay in the
race. but my business needs me and 1
need 1t"
Voiland held the office Of state rep
resentative the last term and made a
brilliant record. In his work he proved
himself both a diplomat and a fighter.
He won many friends in his district b
leading the fight for the sand royalty
bill which was passed by the last legis-
lature.
While on the floor he was clear head
ed and tractful and won the respect of
both his opponents and followers. When
the last legislature was in session there
was little to do that concerned the
Thirty third district. Voiland turned
his attention toward general legislation.
However, his sand bill amendment
proved to be Of much benefit to his dis
trict, as revenue derived from its
passage will practically eliminate the
drainage tax. The North side drainage
district was one of the most costly in
the state.
When voiland's friends found that he
was contemplating his withdrawal from
the race they put forth every effort to
induce him to remain in the fight.
Finding that his business interests de-
manded all of his attention, VOiland
withdrew this morning.
With Mr.. voiland's withdrawal comes
the announcement that another man
will jump into the fight from the Re-
publican side Of the fence. This man
