Show Lee Announces Candidacy For Governor J. Bracken Lee Saturday announced his candidacy as Governor on the lor Republican ticket. The Governor s announcement ended speculation as to the possibility of his running for the United States Senate seat now held by Senator Wallace F. Bennett. Governor Lee acknowledged that he had been urged to run for the Senate, but said he felt he could be of greater service to the people as Governor. At a time when tax spenders are building up hopes for a lavish State tax and spend program, 1 believe the people may still prefer an administration that will hold the spending line, the Governor said. My administration not only has held this line, but, without neglecting essential services, has also reduced State taxes. The first Utah Republican Governor m twenty-fou- r year?, Mr. Lee said he would campaign on the same platform that has been his guide m the past, that of maintaining an honest, efficient and economical administration, and also on his record of office. The people know what I stand for and where I stand, he said. They know the strength of my word and the record of my performance. Re-elecsi- on that cnaracterized the former administration. It has oeen possible both to reduce taxes and provide tor the greatest building program in Utahs history during my administration. The savings we made by holdmg the spending line and instituting important economies in government have provided the means to do both things. At the same time, Utahs highways have been rebuilt to a standard comparable with any State in the Union; our welfare program and institutions have been greatly improved, and Utahs exemplary position in education has been maintained. It was largely througn the efforts initiated during my administration that a unity of purpose was achieved in the Upper Colorado River Basin states which led to Congressional authorization and Presidential approval of tne Colorado River project. And these are but a few of the many accomplishments we have achieved. These are real accomplishments. not glittering pi onuses. They represent the fulfillment of my pledges to the people. If I am to office, I shall continue my efforts to provide this same honest, efficient and economical administration of State affairs. I have no use for expediency and no desire to fool the people, the Governor concluded. I have a conscience I must live with and, therefore, I would rather be right than be Governor but I believe it is possible to be both. Although Governor Lee did not discuss the third term issue, he has let if be known that be believes the people should decide that issue themselves when they vote. There is nothing m the Utah Constitution or statutes prohibiting a Governor from running for or being elected to a third term. A native of Price where he later served six consecutive terms as Mayor, Governor Lee was first elected as Utahs chief executive in 1948 the only Republican to be elected to State office that year. He was high man on his in ticket when he was ed 1952. His administrative record as Governor has won him national recognition. He has been invited to speak to prominent civic and business organizations throughout the Nation and articles about his accomplishments have appeared in such magazines as Life, Saturday Evening Post, American, and Freeman. Governor Lee married the former Margaret Draper in 1928. They are the parents of four children; Mrs. Helen Nelson, Price; James B., Margaret Jon. and Richard L. Lee. Salt Lake continued.

As a result, the State government today is m a sounder position morally and economically than is has ever been. There has been no recurrence of the scandals that used to be commonplace before I took office in such important State commissions as Liquor.
