In a field of five she won the election in the first primary.

2 John McCabe, Coach Nov. 1.3 Open Nov. 20 Centre at Centre that I owe these same friends and business associates 1 a public expression of my position on the question proposed to me. Any citizen worth his salt aspires to serve his community and his fellow men. That thought and belief has been the main factor in my seeking in the past the honored office of Governor of our great State.

The response to my offer of service to my State has indeed been gratifying. The friends I have made have been well worth the effort I put forward. The unselfish attitude of the many hundreds who worked hard in my behalf has made me even more humble. My over-all outlook on the forthcoming race is in reality a searching look into the future of Alabama. I have been seriously concerned with the efforts of some to widen the breach between labor and management.

It has been the closeness of labor and management which has made Alabama rise to heights never before attained in the nation's industrial picture. It is the continued closeness of these same factions of our economic life which will afford us the means to continue prospering. Hundreds of my fellow workers work in facilities which I own and manage under closed-shop union conditions. I have never had reason to regret my actions in negotiating contracts of this type with the unions represented in my businesses. The friendly balance between labor and management must not be upset by narrow-minded or selfish interests.

The welfare of our farm people and the agricultural interests of the State has always been a matter close to my heart. I seek no political opportunity by association. I have been a dirt farmer all my life. The farmers problem has also been mine. A friendly chat at the cross-roads will not be strange to me.

Complete understanding of any problem is the first step in a solution to the problem. I feel I have that understanding. I have watched with alarm the continued investigation of the tax problem. All the effort seems to be toward finding new taxes rather than removing some of the old burdens forced upon an already tax over-loaded income. There must be some relief 10-3- -Anniston 26; Selma 7 Huntsville Sheffield 31 Gville No game played.

Since his time, countless other ideas of telephone scientists and engineers have contributed to the fast, clear telephone service you now enjoy. The idea mill still runs. Telephone men and women everywhere are constantly seeking better and more economical ways of providing your service. Each year Southern Bell employees submit more than 2,000 suggestions.

When this is dne we are assured of an administration which can and will represent all the people, equally and without favor.

In my travels throughout the State in recent months, I have had an opportunity to meet with many of our farmers, our businessmen and ladies, and our professional citizens. Practically everyone I have talked to has agreed in substance with the thoughts I have outlined above. I expect to continue to travel in the communities, over the counties and in the cities of Alabama. I expect to put forward publicly my stand on the issues before us.
