SHERIFF JACKSON DEFINES CAMPAIGN ISSUES
I told you last week that there are two issues, and two issues alone in this campaign for sheriff. I told you that these issues were public decency and labor racketeering.
I defined public decency as a question of whether gambling is to be permitted in Orange County with the consent of law enforcement officers, whether houses of ill fame are to permitted, whether slot machine joints are to be overlooked by the law.
I have proved to you in action that I stand on the side of decency and law enforcement, and all these unwholesome influences are against me.
My opponent denies that he said at a radical meeting that he would turn his back when the goon squads were stopping trucks on the highways.
Here is a quotation from the Register of October 25th:
"Elliot coined using the phrase, 'could turn his back,' but said that he had answered that as long as the strikers were not bringing anyone or wrecking anything, or disturbing the peace it was their own business."
Well, that answer, if it was the one he made, was sufficiently evasive to please this radical meeting. I seem to have given Mr. Elliott too much credit when I said he would turn his back. It appears he would not even take the trouble to turn his back. I know that the people do not want gamblers and goon squats in control of this county. The people of Los Angeles have just kicked them out.
Orange County has been fairly free of major crime. If the labor racketeers and the underworld interests gain a foot hold in this county, our citizens, our schools and our children will pay the penalty.
