5 1952, Doyle E. Carltim luit im Talllnlmsscc to saw .15 Senator
tau-(l with the pmuiin'litv that his tin-t trrm would be his hut.

For ln mu: entering pulihrs the only way that Doylcl Carlton
could: to dedicate himself in doing, tiw thing: that he ieit vwrr
right. to wtc in keeping Willi his cunsdencr, to introduce and
support legislation that would iimmtit nil Floridian without any
mmxm for sectinmil or spacial interests. if this meant political
suicide. that let tlw i'riiil'ism fall whom it may. it was going to hr

it short politicnl life but it wus going: to be a good and meaning-
ful one!

Th2 voters oi Carlton's district dctcrmincd that his \HMliti no! lir
a short political can-tr. Thc) reelected him for the following term
without opposition. And now this rancher imm \Vauchuln is
seeking the Covcmorlhip with vmctly the sumr credo that mrrivd
him to tbs> State Senate eight years ago. Hr will (in tlw things that
are mart heneiwial In most Floridians  whetlu-r it is "good poli-
tics" or not.

What kind of man is thin xtmngv bra-ch of pniitiriun.

Doyle Carlton is a big man physically. A powerful man th them
is n guntlenru about him; in his lice. in hi: eyes, in llh unmpmi
lion he shows for others. But, as ho speaks of the things that am
important in Florida and to himself. he nweulr. a ruwrx'uir of
strength. n durable (lctrnninntiun. a tit-clans vigor, it rncLlilu-
stability . and a iorwurd looking vitiim and imagination.

lie is the rare blend oi man who il a ionri'ul lrndcr despite his.

uppurrnt humility. who is ally at home working among his

cattle or addressing the Senate. who is deeply respected by his

{Ethical opponent". who is extremely cupablc without being over-
nnng.

This is Doyle E. Carlton. In. (Landidute for Con-mar of Florida.
