PAPER SUPPORTS REPUBLICAN STATE-COUNTY
CANDIDATES
Little time remains Iiefore Election Day. The basic issue of
tliis election is onl y too clear . . . and devastating; Tt involves
not only the future of our Commonwealth, but the personal
future of every citizen in this State.
According to figures compiled last year by the V. S. De-
partment of Commerce, Massachusetts was carrying a debt of
$733,381,000, the largest State debt in the nation. This meant
that every man, woman and child in Hay State owed $162.38
,,t that time , nearly five times the national average of $29.74.
The State 's debt has grown even larger under the Furcolo
administration and is now reputed to be close to one billion
dollars.
In all fairness it should be told that the bulk of this alarm-
ing debt cannot be charged to the Furcolo administration but
had been the accumulation of severa l administrations, both
Democrat and Republican.
Nobody likes to have a large debt hanging over him. Hut
,i debt is not necessarily disastrous if it exists in a thriving,
expanding economy.
But, according to Charles Gibbons, candidate for Governor
the Town of Barnstable is plainly a matter of personal
l:is|
" and can be voted either way.
