WALDR0P SEES
COP. MARGIN
Says Many Democrats Re-
sent Absentee Ballot
Practices

An election-eve statement in
which he predicts Republican ma.
jorities ranging up to 1000 for
county Republican candidates was
issued this morning by Frank H,
Waldrop, county Republican chair
man. M. M. Redden, county Dem
ocratic chairman, had previously
predicted margins up to 1000 for
Democratic candidates. Mr.. Wal
drops statement follows:
prospects for the election of
the entire Republican ticket in
Henderson county tomorrow ap-
pear unusually bright. I do not
believe in making false or ex-
travagant claims but indications
now point to majorities ranging
from 1000 upward for Republi-
can candidates.
"There are several reasons why
I believe the Republican ticket
will win. There is much dissatis-
faction in Democratic ranks and
many good Democrats are going
to vote the straight Republican
ticket, while others will split their
ticket. Many independent Demo-
Gratis frankly state that they are
going to vote the Republican tic
ket in resentment against the
absentee ballot law, which they
know is responsible for much il
legal voting.
"Many Henderson county citi-
zens are dissatisfied with extrava-
gance revealed in several county
offices. In spite of any claims
made by the opposition, it is
known fact that, except for off.
GERS salaries which are fixed by
law, expenses of county offices
have not been cut and in many
instances have actually been in
creased. And if there ever was 6
time when operating expense:
should have been cut it was dur
ing the past four years wher
every citizen has been forced tt
cut every expense possible, and
many have suffered hardships
Republican candidates have def.
nitely pledged themselves if elect.
ed to eliminate these unnecessary
expenses.
"In my opinion the good citi.
zens of Henderson county are
going to elect the Republican can.
didates to office and thus effect
the saving of several thousand
dollars annually to the taxpayers
of the county"
In his statement, published Sat.
urday, Mr.. Redden said he be-
lieved the voters will express theil
approval of Democratic rule by
majorities up to 1000. Today
he said this estimate was based or
five principal points:
1. No new debts incurred;
2. County's indebtedness re-
duced almost one million dollars
more than was paid in any II
years prior to 1880.
8. Property valuations cut 81
per cent and tax rate reduced
from $1.67 in 1880 to 70 cent.
in 1884;
4. New county home erected
with labor and materials secured
in payment of back taxes, and OPP
Grafton of home reduced from

Bob Reynolds Tells Final
Democratic Rally Liberty
Not To Be Impaired
ONLY 3 BANKS CLOSED
AFTER MORATORIUM

Senator Robert R. Reynolds, Of
Asheville, closed the Democratic
campaign in Henderson county
with an address to an audience
that packed the county courthouse
on Saturday night.
Senator Reynolds, always popu-
lar as a speaker in this county,
spoke to a crowd of between 500
and 600 people in spite of the
fact that the weather was unfa-
vorable.
The Senator made his last ad-
dress of the campaign here, and
appeared to be slightly tired from
the efforts he has put forth for
the Democratic ticket in the final
days of the campaign. He only
recently returned from a trip to
Mexico City, where he was the
guest of U. S. Ambassador Jose
plus Daniels, and studied condl-
tions in the neighboling republic.
NJ. M. Redden, Fendersonville
attorney, and chairman of the
county Democratic executive COM
mittee, presided at the meeting,
and spoke briefly on the county
situation, urging the people to re-
elect the Democratic county
ticket.
He called attention to the fact
that taxes have been lowered and
expenses of the county materially
cut since the present Democratic
administration took office.
Mr.. Redden presented Victor E.
Rector, who spoke briefly in pre-
senting Senator Reynolds.
The Senator compared present
conditions, which he declared are
materially improved, with condi-
tions existing before the Roose-
welt administration came into
power.
BANKING, CURRENCY
DISCUSSED AT LENGTH
He discussed at length the
banking and currency situation
and declared that since the bank
moratorium, declared as Roose-
welt took office, only three banks
have failed in the United States
and these with no loss to depos-
itors.
With reference to the farm
situation, he declared that the
farmers are now facing times
when they will be much better off
than ever before. He pointed to
increased cotton and tobacco
prices as an indication that farm
ers are facing a new day under
the present Democratic admins
tration.
Senator Reynolds declared that
the constitution of the United
States was formulated for the
benefit of the people of the coun-
try, and that the people were not
made for the constitution.
Drawing from his experiences
in a recent trip to Europe, and
with particular reference to Rus
STA, which country he visited be-
fore official recognition was grant
ed the Soviet by this country, the
speaker declared that the nations
of Europe are likewise receiving
a New Deal, but he further de-
clared that in none of the nations
of Europe had as much progress
been made as in this country, and
further that the new deals of
other nations were being obtained
at the price of liberties of the
people and in the establishment of
relationships. The liberty of the
American people, he declared, will
not be impaired by the New Deal,
but the government proposes to
take care of the needy people in
this country as long as such
condition exists.
