Governor Sterling for Re election
Approximately three hundred speakers aid Governor R S Sterling in his campaign for re election. The budget is balanced and he seeks a tax rate reduction. He vetoed millions in appropriation bills to curb spending and backs abolishing unnecessary bureaus to ease taxes. He favors reimbursing counties for state highway construction, aiming to cut taxes further. Lavaca county boasts strong concrete highways under his regime. Voters should weigh these points before Primary Day.
