[Letter and Resolution from Charlie A. Jones to T. N. Carswell - September 2, 1942]

A letter addressed to Mr. T. N. Carswell, Abilene, Texas, from Charlie A. Jones, Rotan, Texas, dated September 2, 1942. Jones explains to Carswell that his letter addressed to O. D. Henley was given to him. Jones advises that the enclosed resolution was adopted by their association and that there were some heated talks all in favor of the resolution. He suggested that Carswell might phone Dr. Walton of Hardin-Simmons for his version as he listened in on the proceedings. Jones assures Carswell that he is at his service, that his stand on the liquor question has cost him three political campaigns and that he will probably be a contender for the place John Lee Smith is vacating in the Senate. The enclosed resolution condemns the alcohol traffic and charges the reader with the responsibility "of keeping the soldier boys safe."
