"ALL OF YARBOROUGH'S
STATEMENTS WERE TRUE.
HE SAYS
To The Alto Herald:
"The Panola Watchman," a
small town newspaper located in
Carthage, Panola County, was a
strong supporter of Allan Shivers
for re-election in both primaries.
But a few weeks ago an unusual
editorial was printed in which the
pro-Shivers editor admitted nearly
every charge Yat'borough had
made against our movie-star
Governor, from printing contracts
on down to the insurance scandal!
Toward the end the reason the
"Watchman" had supported
Shivers was revealed—"We didn't
want the northern liberals"! In
my opinion a "northern liberal" is
better than a "northern Republi-
can" which Allan Shivers is! "The
Watchman" together with Jack
Porter has insured it that Yarbo-
rough Democrats can't support
Allan Shivers this November 2.
I suggest that everyone that voted
for Ralph in August cast a write-
in vote for him this November 2.
Here are reasons why Yarborough
has a chance:
1. Tod Adams, the Republican
nominee for governor, is expected
to draw 200,000 votes that were
in the Shivers column in August!
2. A very light vote is expected
(less than one million)!
3. Because of this light vote
Yarborough will need only 57%
<of what he received in August.
4. Shivers is overconfident!
5. A recent poll taken in the
state shows that 75^ of August
Yarborough supporters would
write his name in if they knew
how (25% didn't know how). Our
main job is to show them !iow.
There have been rumors around
lately that many Yarborough sup-
porters intend to vote for Tod
Adams, the Republican! I auk
them these tiuestions: What would
it accomplish? Do you want a
strong Republican Party in Texas?
Who wou!d get credit if Adams ac-
cidently won? Yarborough sup-
porters wouldn't! Out of curiosity
I took a poll of 50 Yarborough
people and I found out this: Five
will vote for Adams and 45 will
not. under any circumstances!
35 of the 45, however, agreed to
write-in Yarhorough's name.
Therefore I appeal to those of you
who favor voting for Adams to
unite with the majority in a
write-in campaign for Ralph Yar-
borough because divided we
wouldn't make a good showing.
Let's he'lp a real Democrat and
an East Texan and not a man,
Adams, who recently said "Allan
Shivers is one of the "best
governors Texas ever had and I
regret to run against him."
