CANDIDATE IS WELL ' COACHED '. Petrol, or lack of it, is playing an important part in the general election campaign, but Major Hugh Fraser, Conservative candidate for the new Stafford and Stone constituency, has no worries in that direction. From the box of a coach and four outside the old royal oak hotel, he harangues his constituents at Eccles hall Staffordshire. Major Fraser asked electors to get ' more fun , gaiety and colour' into the campaign and pledged whatever horse-drawn transport was available will be organised to get country voters to the poll ' whatever their political opinions'. 14 February 1950.
