Newsman vies for county seat
Les Klrriber, a candidate for
i seat on the County Board of
Supervisors, admits he will need
i big voter turnout In order to
be elected. To do that, he will
need a lot of people walking
precincts, going door to door,
letting the voters know what he's
all about.
Kimber invited CSUF students
to rxcome Involved in his campaign during an Informal talk
last Wednesday in which he tried'
to tell those present what he
thinks he can do for Fresno
County.
He wants his campaigners
"who are committed not to me
as an individual, but to the ls-
Klmber, who calls himself a
"liberal," says he's Interested
In "getting something done" and
feels he can do this from a seat
on tbe board.
• Tbe supervisors are some of
the most significant policy makers In the county, Kimber said,
in terms of money, education,
welfare 'and  law  enforcement.
"Tbe budget ls tremendous,
and there are items in that budget that affect the Uves of everyone tn the county, especially
blacks  and  other minorities."

Although he Is concerned with
helping blacks and minorities,
-Kimber said he ls convinced
that there are whites who would
benefit.
There are whites who are unemployed, and to get people to
vote, whatever race, "you have
to show tbem they can personally benefit. In presentations,
I'm talking where I know they're
at." In west Fresno, there are
concerns of unemployment, he
said. In Mendota, the results
of recent flooding is a problem,
he said.
Kimber, who says be was a
republican when he lived In North
Carolina, explained that "If you
know anything about soathern
democrats," you know why he
was   a   member of that party.
Kimber claims Utat if be is
elected, he will sit on the board
for the four-year term, but that
be will not seek reelection. He
says he's not Interested In being
a "career poUtidan." Four
years is enough time to do wliat
he plans.
But what can one person do?
Kimber contends that the right
Individual can revolutionize
things. Just his sitting on" the
board wUl be Important, he said.
' The lack of economic development In West Fresno bothers
him, and it disturbs him to see
such growth toward the north.
Economic development ls a
catalyst to solve problems, and
be said be subscribes to tbe
beUef that "If you give a man
a fish, be eats for one day.
If you teach him how to fish,
he eats for a lifetime."
Kimber says be wiU try to
encourage minorities to become
entrepreneurs, and will direct
them to the sources to get them
The business world, he said, ls
the last racist stronghold. In
the south, he said, blacks have
owned businesses, but in Fresno
that Is not tbe case.
