Thompson Will Seek Congress Post This Year
Amarillo’s Col. Ernest Thompson launches his Democratic primary bid for congressman at large. The mayor, in office three years, outlines a platform emphasizing cheaper utilities, lower taxes, and streamlined city government, citing a $1,000,000 annual saving from rate cuts and 25 percent tax relief. He argues for national focus on domestic work and opposition to further European financial meddling. Thompson’s record includes public improvements, war service, and role as Amarillo’s leader amid tough times.
