To The Republican Voters
Of Garrett County:

herewith place my candidacy before you
for the office Of State Senator This is the fourth
time have been a candidate; twice | was sue
cessful, and once lost Unlike Delegate Green,
| have never been hand picked by the so-called
political leaders at Oakland to run as their can
didate, nor do have any position with the
school board, or any other public body in the
county or state.
There are a few cardinal principles pertain
ing to public affairs in which | firmly believe.
One of these most basic principles is that all pub
lie moneys should be strictly accounted for; and
that all the people are justly concerned with the
public business.
Most Of you, no doubt, like myself, have
been waiting in vain for information on the cost
Of our new school buildings. The annual state
ments that were published may have met the re-
quirements of the law, but they have not shown
us the cost of the new school plants. Nor have
they told us what we need to know in order to get
mental picture of our county finances.
The building of the schools is no longer an
ISSUE and do not intend to interfere with the
school building program, but we have right to
know what the schools cost. In order to obtain
this information | have contacted the County
Commissioners and have asked for statement
showing the amounts paid the architects, for
other professional services and for other infor-
nation to show the total cost of each separate
plant. have also asked for the amount of money
borrowed and the total of our county debt. They
have agreed to furnish this information as soon
as it can be assembled. When this has been re-
ceived we will be able to see just where we stand.
am entering this contest as free man | do
not owe allegiance to any political machine. No
Officeholders have any strings that they can pull
against me. If elected, | can be a representative
Of all the people, including those who have been
so long forgotten.
| will work for economy in our state and
county governments, and when it is pos
sble | will legislate against waste and eXtrava-
gance. | will especially see to it that our people
not again threatened with hasty, i'll considered
and destructive legislationlike the gas law, Just
repealed, New and greater efforts will be made
by powerful corporations to obtain another gas
law that would enable them to fitch the gas from
under our lands without paying for it. If | am in
the Senate | will be on guard to protect your
interests. If there is any future legislation on
this subject it must be for the protection of our
citizens
Respectfully solicit your influence and sup
port at the primary election on June %.
