Well, I would say as far as public service is concerned... I was a champion of peace and human rights. I've sought to carve out for myself a productive and I hope useful and certainly a gratifying life. I've been very lucky.

Well, I had come home from the Navy, having been 11 years a full-time naval officer, a submarine officer. started a small business, and had never run for elective office. I was a chairman of the Sumter County School Board in the heat of the integration years. I was concerned about the closing down or the subversion of our public school system.

And I was disgusted in a way with the slow pace of the civil rights changes in the South. And then along came the bright halcyon days of the... one-man, one-vote ruling where the Democratic white rural primary was going to be stricken down. I thought it was a new day in Georgia and the United States where the democracy would prevail and honesty would be there and equality would be ensured.

And so I decided I would run for the state senate. And the only request I would make and did finally make was to be on the education committee. And I entered this little community over in the western part of Georgia, Georgetown, Georgia, And I found shocking fraud, corruption, stuffing ballot boxes, abuse of citizens. That was incredible to me.

Well, I was ahead in the election going into this little tiny county on the Chattahoochee River, just across the river from Alabama. There was a political boss in the county named Joe Hurst. He was chairman of the only political organization, the Democratic Committee. He was a state legislator. His wife was a welfare director.
