fair to all the people and will not play one class against another
class.
nm Fifth am not a Halter and bear no illwll against any one
When the election is over, l will not feel hard towards anyone lust
because they did not vote for me. The right of the ballot is personal
and voters are duty bound to vote for the party whom they think
is best able. qualified and willing to fairly represent them. We
need to forget hatred for our felow-man and all spend our energy
fighting and working for our Country during the War and then for
the upbuldlng of our Community after the War. To do this will
require a spirit of triendhness among our people and this is absolute
ly necessary to promote the continued growth of our Community
There Is no room for hatred in u community and the quicker we
forgive our neighoor for his shortcomings, the better off we will
be SIS well as our Community

Lastly l am for a better Community. A safer place in which
to run rampant IN our Community and to spread fear among our
citizens. Ii is my pledge to do everything possible TO make our
Community a safe place in which TO live and my further solemn
pledge TO work for the best interest Of our Community. To encours
age ON new-found citizens to remain here and to formulate post
war plans to enable them to earn a livelihood will likewise be one
of the main planks in my platform =
PAscAGoULA is a lively Community NOW! Let's not be
hsters; let's keep il that way.
Yours for a GREATER PAsCAGouLA
