a,T The Board s also contracts for and purchases ms sss supplies This should be done by
sponsbe bidder. This promise to do and am lot interested in any business to
make sales to the County
The Board also charged with maintaining a Courthouse and Jail. This is a
matter of vita concern to the County and we surely need new Courthouse and
Jail The present me is totally inadequate and without necessary modern ON
.veniences. My experience the field of building construction and carpentry leads
me to believe that would be better fitted to serve the District in the construction
Of a new Courthouse and Jail
The other duties OF a Supervisor ire confined to the operation of county Agen-
ceSs such as the Hospital, Poor House. County Fair, Schools Health Department,
County Agent, Home Demonstration, Welfare Department m such like Most of
these are controlled outside the Boardo Supervisors. The Hospital is controlled
ment is mostly controlled by appomees of the State Board of Health. FarmB Bureau
Extension Dept, controls the County Agent ant Home Demonstration Offices The
Schools are controlled by the County Supt, of Education through his disappointed
Board of Trustees The Sheriff, Constable, Justice of the Peace the Circuit and
Chaneey Courts are charged with maintaining aw and order. pledge myself to
continue support OF the above named Agencies and cooperate with the peace officers
now that the War is overan md this should serve to promote fendHness and pride
amongst our rural population Maybe the Poor House had better be improved too
as we may all be m our way there if prices don't go down soon 1 also am for
lower prices.
AS to my reputation I am a law abiding citizen and have lived in this County
all my life, with the exception oil 2 years when was in the military service dur
ing the list World War. l have tried to lead a useful and peaceful life. I believe II
uphoding the dignity of the law and will accept the oath of office, if elected with
the full knowledge of its consequences
1t is my belief that l can devote more time to the office and that due to NV
construction and building experience, that l I'M better qualified to serve in his
capacity. Please remember that there's are five members of the Board Of Supervisors
and 10 one Member of the Boardca an control it. will work diligently for the best
interest OF the District will seek the best available advice on all subjects and
assure you that your influence and support will be highly appreciated.
Gratefully yours,
JOE Y. KREBS
