Announces For
Representative

Formally announcing his cam
didaey for the Office of State
Representative, Attorney and
World War II Veteran j. r..
Porter said today: In 1850 /
fought the Octopus Political
Machine; I opposed it in 1851,
and I'm against it today. In my
judgment, the office of State
Representative was intended to
be AND SHOULD BE exactly
what the name implies--the Rep
resentative of ALL of the people
of Monroe County nothing
more nothing less. In this
County, however, in recent years.
the State Representative has be-
come COUNTY MANAGER,
exercising abortive powers and
a dictatorial control over the
machinery Of Government, Great
ing thereby a Political Machine
whose one-man control is who'll
~ contrary to our basic Ameri-
can principle Of checks and bal
ances in Government. / sincerely
believe that no individual, in or
out Of public office, should hold
such power in any field and
most especially in the field of
Government dealing as it does
with the overall welfare Of ALL
Of the people.
Therefore, If the INDEPEND-
EMIT VOTERS Of this County
choose To honor me with their
confidence, I shall work unceas-
ingly for the fulfillment of the
following principles Of GOOD
GOVERNMENT for the PEOPLE
and with the PEOPLE Of Monroe
County:
1. shall maintain most strict
~ shands-off' policy with re-
spcct to the County Government.
The County Commissioners are
ELECTED BY THE PEOPLE
and charged with the duty Of
operating the County Econom-
ically Tor the benefit Of ALL Of
the people. They are BY law
made responsible to the People,
AND NOT TO THE STATE
REPRESENTATIVE. | shall not
attempt to influence their inde-
bendent judgment directly or in
