'THE RECORD IS THE
BEST EVIDENCE”
“It is a rule that the rec-
or is the best evidence”
We offer you the record
of Woodard Bass as
County Attorney.
Because of his 19 years
experience, Woodard
Bass has been able to
prepare his criminal
cases in such a manner
that guilty defendants
have preferred to plead
guilty rather than face
prosecution b e f o re a
jury Woodard Bass has
a record of 584 convic-
tions since taking office
as County Attorney and
has had to submit only 17 cases to a jury. This has
not only saved the county thousands of dollars in jury
costs and jurors time, but suck convictions have re-
sulted in the collection of $40,372.00, all of which
money goes into the County’s treasury.
Let’s KEEP BASS on the Job for a
Second Term
