Charles Sullivan
announces for
Governorship
TO THE PEOPLE OF
MISSISSIPPI

MISSISSIPPI
For some time it has been
generally known that | will
be a candidate for governor
in the August Mississippi De-
mocratic primary. Today, |
formally announce my inten-
ton TO seek the nomination,
and solicit the support of
every Mississippian who be-
lieves the chief executive OF
our state should be honest,
conservative, fortnight and
consistent in his attitude to-
ward the conduct of our
government.
My campaign shall be bas-
ed upon a positive approach
to the problems which will
determine the progress to be
achieved under the next adj
ministration. 1t will be COM
pletely void of the hypocrisy
which has become traditional
in the Mississippi gubernato-
rial campaigns. On the con-
trary, | shall take a position
directly and without equivo-
cation, upon every issue or
question that may arise re-
CARELESS of the popularity -
or lack of it = of such a po-
| sition. Political commitments
viii not be made to attract
financial assistance or the
support of particular indivi-
duals or groups so that when
| elected, we can, unencumber-
ed by political obligations
administer the duties of the
office impartially, efficiently
and with complete integrity.
Economic, educational, So
ciaI and political progress,
unparalleled i'm our history
can be achieved through the
dedicated efforts of a posi-
tive aggressive administra-
ton which recognizes Missis-
sippi has not even begun to
realize it's potential and
which is not content with the
stagaation of simply main
tanning that which we now
have.
While the position I advo-
| Gated on some major ques-
tons in 1859 has now be-
come legal reality, others re-
main critical issues. My po-
/ sition on such questions will
be precisely the same. All of

Wilmington said that Ray
will work with c. A. Miller,

conducting the campaign in
Holmes County.
''The continuation of the
all-imrortant work of Delta

support of area leaders,"
Wilmington said. 1.-THE sue

projects, all of which have
meant millions of dollars in

For the last several weeks,
a group of industrialists, edu-
Gators, and legislators have
been involved in an area stu
dy to document the needs for
vocational and technical
training. This area study is a
part of a state wide study be-
ing conducted in each of the
Junior college districts of the
state. Representatives from
Holmes, Madison, Yazoo, At
tala, Carroll, Montgomery,
Grenada, and Choctaw Coun-
ties have been present at the
group meetings held on the
Holmes Junior College cam
pus.
The industrialists have re-
ported their present employ
ment with a break down OF
job descriptions, and the edu-
Gators have listed their pre-
sent programs of vocational
and technical training.
After evaluating the needs
of the area, the following re-
commentators have been
made for this area:
For the high S C h S:
Grades 8 and - A diversifi-
ed industrial arts program.

us who seek this office must
now accept political respon-
sibility for our conduct OF the
past. | do so gladly.
Perhaps the single, most
significant issue of the cam.
paign will he the question OF
Mississippi's relationship TO
the Federal Government,
which includes, among other
things, separation of races.
1t is IMPERATIVE that the next
governor he a man who mas
consistently and uncompro-
misingly resisted encroach
ment of Mississippian's SOY
erignty, principles and tradl-
tons by the national govern
ment.
One single dramatic act OF
defiance, committed after re-
sistence was unquestionaDly
politically expedient and, IN
fact without any choice un-
der the circumstance then ex-
listing will not suffice. One act
of resistance, or subsequent
condemnation of national po-
litical figures or abrupt chan
ges of party affiliation does
not qualify for the governor
ship individuals who have IA
vored with their open support,
or quiet ballot such advocates
of federal domination as Har-
nv Truman, Adlai Stevenson
and John Kennedy.
Probably the second most
important problem to con-
front the next administration
will be the financial condition
of the state. Apparently, a
$40 Million deficit will occur
if present expenditures legal
ly provided are continued
without new revenue. | have
always maintained that fiscal
responsibility is an absolute
prerequisite of stable and
progressive COVER n m e n t,
state or national. We cannot
spend more than our income
and avoid inevitable econo-
mic disaster. In this CAM
paign individuals will not be
permitted to capitalize poll
tically on this issue while
seeking the highest office
when in the one they now &C.
cupy they are directly and
undeniably responsible for
the problem which exists.
My platform will specifical-
ly outline the programs and
detectives essential to reali.
cation of the growth and pro.
gress which 1 earnestly cOvet
for Mississippi.
My campaign will be very
similar to the one conducted
in 1859, in which the most
gratifying aspect of that eff
fort was that it proved the
people of Mississippi will res
pond to a political campaign
of opennesS and fortnight
ness, based on sincere con-
viction of principle.
l am deeply grateful for
the support of the $4,000 Mis-
sissippians who in 1859 evil
denced their agreement with
such a philosophy at the bal
lot box, they have not chang
ed in their approval Of such a
person seeking public office.
l have not changed.
Unfortunately, due to the
brief duration of that cam
paign, l did not then know
and have not since become
acquainted with the great
majority of these people. !
sincerely urge everyone who
participated then and wishes
to support such a campaign
now to contact us.
