Hold The Line Governor Gary Backed To Hold Taxes
The editorial urges support for Governor Gary in resisting new or higher state taxes in Oklahoma. It argues that tax collections have risen despite no rate increase, cites historical figures, and stresses local funding or cutting costs to avoid greater taxpayer burdens. It praises Gary’s stance as fiscally prudent and predicts economic stability if maintained.
Lawton Looks Forward to Stable Local Government
Looking Ahead Lawton should enjoy under two years of sensible and businesslike city government as a result of the municipal elections last week. Mayor Ellsworth has demonstrated his ability to conduct a businesslike administration. The newly elected council members are likewise capable and may join in advancing the water program, industrial growth, and other efforts for a progressive administration. Both successful and unsuccessful candidates are praised for their conduct of the campaign, with no acrimony or division reported. Community support is urged to back the new leadership and civic programs that have earned Lawton acclaim.
