Tooting Our Own Horn
The writer (Commissioner Thomas A. Owens)
#i commentary that appeared back some years ago,
ming legislative candidates, in which Firam G. Andrews, then the
tlitor of the Johnstown Democrat, advised us that we shouldn't be
too modest. and certainly should take udvantage of our own news
japer in support of individual political aspirations. From time
ime, as the years have passed by, we've used that advice Without
fear of criticism of any other candidate of either political party
tolumn this week will be directed along Mr. Andrews
{ime advice.
The week after next there's a primary election coming along.
County offices will be at stake, and nominations will be made by
the major parties to appear on the general election ballot in
November. Of course the writer is one of the Democratic Party's
endorsed candidates for re-dlection to the Board of County
Commissioners, as is his colleague, Pat Farrell, of Johastown,
well

The team of Farrell and Owens have served as Cambria County's
majority Commissdoners for a period of seven years ard four months
'Fhat's surely a sufficient time for both of us to be judged by our
tecords and our records alone. There's an old adage that “a record

When Pat Farrell and Thoms A. Owetis became majority
Commissioners of Cambria County in Janusry of 1948 they were
faced with debis of considerable proportions entailed for ordinary
running sxpenses, instead of any balance at all. In fact, over a
period of many years, because of a millage ate below reason,
even the current bills of the county were so slow in payment at
