The piece compares Governor Samuel P Goddard and opponent John R Williams highlighting their personas. Goddard appears aloof yet capable of warmth with children, while Williams, missing an eye since youth, is erudite and relaxed but relies on advisor Shadegg. Williams questions Goddard’s governance.
In an exclusive interview Governor Goddard lists major achievements such as tax equalization, a state budget director, civil rights commission, and merit pay proposals. He cites failures like the mental health bill, discusses reapportionment, and argues for a strong budget office to curb corruption and improve efficiency. He opposes a constitutional convention, supports state vehicle inspection, and stresses education funding and diversified industry to meet growth.
In a series of responses Williams labels Goddard's tenure as marked by confusion and overcomplicated taxes that deter industry, while attributing many so-called successes to prior administrations or Republican actions. He denies Birch Society gains and urges reform in budgeting and agency control.
