Lt. Gov. Ramsey
Places Soil, Water
As Major Issues
San Augustine, Texas.—Soil and
water conservation and greater
protection for Texas families
through good services and stabil-
ity in government are the major
issues on which Lt. Gov. Ben Ram-
sey will campaign for re-election
this summer.
Ramsey, who is touring the state
preparatory to officially opening
liberately turning my back on the
security of a quiet harbor and
certainly the course we will steer
lies through troubled waters. But
that’s where the need is greatest.
“Texas’ greatest need today is
vigorous enforcement of our Texas
laws. I believe I can serve Texas
best in filling that need.”
Most seasoned observers agree
that Judge Wilson would have been
re-elected without opposition to the
Supreme Court. Both of his col-
leagues up for re-election are un-
opposed.
“I cannot remain on the Supreme
Court while I campaign for Attor-
ney General,” he said.
On the issue of corruption in Tex-
as government, Wilson’s statement
was quick and clear-cut:
“We’re way past that as an is-
sue. The only issue today is who
is best qualified to clean it up.
“I believe my record as two-time
assistant attorney general, prose-
cuting district attorney and su-
preme court associate justice qual-
ify me to do the job.”
Wilson was elected to the Court
in 1950 by a heavy majority. He
is one of the youngest men ever
to serve on the high bench. While
District Attorney he gained nation-
al recognition in stamping out or-i
