N R n D m a E BU M 1. Tnternesattame manator Cariten has endessered to give the people of Pierida the raise and erroneous inlyression that my previous motions in supporting the regelution et sterposition endangered Florida's rapii menignawat law, Mr. Carlton elould have Florida ampudiate am! dissegueinte itself train our sister gouthern states who have this gran problem trow let us look at the reemed which clearl.y antabliance that his realson is absolutely false -either delsterete or from ignoranr:e. One is just as dangerous 4= the other to the establiened institutions sna prirtaistee or which we fight. Here are the faster A. meneter Carlton said Virgirila inst its pupil assignment leer because it passed a reseletion of intersmition. The decision of the Federal courts declaring Virginia*a pupil assighment lor unconstitutional mod void is the case of g.dking va, The school Beayd of the e.ity of meersort News. dere is tria casa, r.t is private in the leir books and it is available for anybody and everytiody to read. It ogswers in les Federal suppleeent, page 430. pear, this is what the emurt said, It Eeferred to Sever41 reEolutiese e rginia, in"" ciuding interposition, and then the eoert said, and Y quote umrbatim.

.g. Will find that the clours stated that the state et VArginia put a paragraph in its general appropriations aet for public subcola prohibiting the expoediture of any of tile funde af that state for any school in wnich elbite and colored children are permitted to attend. This sielply taant, as the reurt stated, that pupil assigneent er no pupil assig= unt, a 4chool emn't operate without eeneyi en pupil assignment could e+r se effective and was, therefore, void. This cooe of the ederal Murt was af firmed -oy the Supreme Court of the LMited States. Later virgirua changed its apyropriatiotia act and re-enacted its playil assagrilment inni following Florida's general form and the Federal Coast has held it constitutional. Virginia's resolution of interscaition still stanam. As you can see, it did not affect their pupil easignment lear. Senator Carlton may try to alibi that he is not a lawyer and doesn't know about these legni esteera. well. I am a lawyer and I do know shout them and 111 addition its the laidst of mil these virginia elattez's, on my own time and at my own expense I went to virginia. 1 talked to the Governor of Virginia, the Attorney General of Virginia and the Superintendent of Virginia schooie. Osnator caritan just doses't know what he is talking about. Do you want thin kind of leadership for Floridas B, Om that same subject, here's another' fact established by the reewrd, under date of April is. 1957, the Honorable Ric-hard v. Ervin, Attorney oaneral of Florida, who as you knew is the lemyer for the state of Florida, wrote an officiel Oginion number 037-97 which is a matter of sublic

3. QyLton *2 Lec'islata v4 Record z A. As you know, Senator Carlton adeita that he doesnt have such of a legislative record. 'le nye he *pent mi:set of him time a the Legislature getting knocked down, Cut his record deem show that he speint some of his time t'-t-omoth9 hie owe yet personal interest projeete. For emaniple, the amate Journal of t~ne 1953 se=sion shows senate Bill 132 alaking it unlmrful to call cigarettes at less than cost. Page 32 of ihm ,Journal shows Senator Carlton vrated for this bill. Med it tiecause his father-in-Lew ( .Woodbury) is the .-resident of Kii Witt mbecco Company? In 1957 Senator Carlton voted fos' seaste sail 822 which incrossed the amount pibid by the state to cigarette w-flolemale dealers for affiring tax stampefrom 4% to 5%. This increase of 1% put 2291.167.00 in the pockets of the wholesale cigarette dealers in PLorida, de served him father-in-idnu very well in that instante. B. Etut just to point out nis further inconsistencies, senate Bill 264 in the 1995 session was a bill to pay 2% to the filling station operators for collecting and remitting state Max on gasoline. Senator Carlton voted against this, if de father-in-Amiw had been a filling station operator Moeld he have voted for it? Have you noticed the Eli Witt lebecom trucks throughout Florida distributing Carlton campaign literature? sham is his recoro of epecial interest double dealing. C. You knEng, Senettsr Carlton says he believes in conservation. Let's look at his record to see if he practices what he preaches. In 19$3 the Legislature passed Senate Bill b61 giving the Gamle and Fresh Water rash Commissten authority to regulate the taking of fresh water fish. Senator

'10 make our efforts to attract eDre industrie4 successful, we need to repeal the increased intengible tax." Yet, did you know that knate Bill 141's which was pa.saed in thw 1957 session of thm Florida Legielsture was the bill which increased the intangible tem that deneta Carlton saye he now wants to reveal. She senatt Journal abews senator Carlton voted for the increase in the intanTble tax. Can you believe him naw Men he says he verits to t'eamal it? J. M this crysign Senator Carlton has made derogetory remarks about lawyers. Yet the record shows that .saraste P111 374 in the 1959 messiorr of the Legislature was a bill to outlaw ambulace chaing and Senator Carltora voted against it. If he recall' thought there was anything wrong with the lawyere of Floridr. why didn't he help correct it by '.'oting for this bill' N. ifouse mill 990 was passed by the 1959 mession of the rioride legislature. It gave the authority to our County sheriffs to close any piablie beach. Park or other recreational facility when disorderly conditions strist or threaten to take place. The record shows that deirator Carltoa voted aginst this bill. New he emys in his offielal platfore that he wanta the counties to have authority to deel with the question. When and my did he change his mindT L. Beneter earlton told the people of Mimfat that I was a race heiter. ist's swamine the s'acord to see who is baitirig what rhee. Eet as look at the situation in Jackeenville
