Department of Archives General Library University of Georgia Athens, Georgia VOLUME 86—NUMBER 50 The Taylor County News and The Butler Herald ' BUTLER, GEORGIA, FRIDAY, NOVEMBER 2, 1962 Due to a lack of sufficient advertising, we were forced to cut the paper to four pages this week. We hope this will not be necessary often. The news was edited as much as possible to give the essential facts and some material was saved for next week. Many pictures of course were held for running next week. On Thursday night, after re turning from Warner Robins where everyone was calmly preparing for an emergency if necessary, I found the people of our county frantically preparing to receive 1600 children the next day. For months, yes even years, we have been told over and over to prepare for an emergency. Even in a nuclear attack some could survive with proper pre- But the Cuban crisis brought home to us so clearly that we too are sitting on a powder keg. We now realize it can happen to us. Be sure to be present on Nov. 12 at the Butler Gym and learn what you can do. * * * Our policy, published recent ly, concerning the publication of news free and charging for publishing advertising has not been too popular with some peo ple. I regret it. But the policy is a necessary one. The line must be drawn somewhere. I believe it is fair to say that if you have a. service or product you wish to give FREE to the public, we will give our adverti sing, in the form of news stories, FREE, too. On the other hand, if you are CHARG ING for your service, show or product, then it seems only right that we CHARGE for adver tising in this newspaper. If I walked into a clothing store and asked for a dress free, the owner of clerk would consider me anidiotl The dress cost the store money and the merchant must sell it at a certain markup to stay in busi ness. The same is true of space in this space at a small markup to stay in business. The economics of running this newspaper are that simple. I wish I were wealthy and could run this newspaper as philan thropy. I can’t. I must make expenses. The small amount charged for subscriptions goes only a small way toward off setting expenses. Advertising is essential to the financial success—and continuation—of this newspaper. So our policy: News we print FREE, gladly. . . and we SELL ADVERTISING TO SURV1VEI Stinsons Uninjured in Auto Accident No injuries were reported in the accident on Friday night involving the 1962 Nash Ram bler auto belonging to the E. J. Stinsons. Miss j'oan Wisham, Jimmy Stinson and Jack Stinson, oc cupants of the car, were re turning from the football game in Montezuma when the auto overturned near Ideal. SAC To Hold Practice Session At Mauk Jet bombers of the Strategic Air Command will begin flying missions onNovember 6 against simulated targets near Mauk, Ga. Radar bomb scoring equip ment mounted on an Air Force train parked near Mauk will score the accuracy of simulated bomb drops by means of radio and radar signals. B-47, B-52 and B-58 bombers travelling along a 10-mile wide training corridor will fly at an altitude of approximately 5,000 feet during the simulated bomb runs. The corridor will begin north of Walhalla, S. C. and go south to near Dublin, Ga., to near McRae, Ga., and then northwest to aiming points near Mauk. No bombs are carried by the SAC aircraft on these training missions. After the corridors and targets have been used for approximately 45 days, op erations along the route will be suspended, because the crews become familiar with the landmarks and other identi fying characteristics of the area to the point the route no longer offers realistic training bene fits, All targets and route selections have been coordi nated in advance with the Federal Aviation Agency. Highly populated areas and areas of heaviest air traffic are avoided. The RBS Express, designa tion for the Air Force train which carries the mobile radar bomb scoring equipment, is de signed to inject more realism into SAC’s training program, providing crews with a wider range of unfamiliar targets and routes. This is done by moving the RBS Express to a new geo graphical location periodically to simulate new and different target areas. With each relo cation, new routes terminat ing near the RBS Express are used. The train is manned by about 65 Air Force personnel. These are radar and electronic tech- nicinas plus personnel needed to maintain the train and fur nish other support. Civilian train crews move the RBS Ex press between target locations. Each train has lOcarscarry ing radar and communications equipment, fuel and supplies. The cars are from U. S. Army stock.

Hugh Howell To Speak At HD Banquet Hugh Howell will be guest speaker on November 8 at 8:00 p. m. at Taylor County Home Demonstration Banquet in But ler School Cafeteria. Theme for the occasion will be the council theme, "Homemaking the Heart of the Nation”.

Jack Key, pastor of the First Methodist Church of Cordele, was guest speaker for the luncheon meeting of the Kiwanis Club on Friday. He chose for his topic, The Rights of Children. They have a right to be well bred, well fed, well led, well read and well wed. Another interesting thing quoted by the speaker was the 12 rules for rearing delinquents Pete Ayers presided over the business and Woodfin Hinton reported on the Civil Defense meeting held to make plans for taking refugees in case of at tack. Key Clubbers Reid Walton and Jimmy Holloway, Frank Goddard, Roy Studstill and be altered or remodeled to take care of our expanding volume of mail.” The construction program is being concentrated in those areas where the need is urgent and suitable space cannot be obtained except through new construction. "We now have about 45,000 post office locations through out the country, handling a volume of 65 billion pieces of mail a year. By 1970 it is expected to rise to 90 billion. It is clear, therefore, that we must redouble our efforts, not only in expanding our capacity but also in devising new postal techniques to meet the demands of our growing population." The new sturcture will con tribute materially to the efforts being made by Butler, in co operation with the new Federal Area Redevelopment Admini stration, to revitalize the local economy and help provide per manent new job opportunities, the Postmaster General pointed out. New employment will be provided during the construc- ttion phase, he said, and the completed building will help community efforts to sell Butler as a good place for business to grow. This cooperation between the Post Office Department and ARA, Mr. Day said, is designed to implement President Ken nedy's broad program of Federal assistance to areas of chronic unemployment and un deremployment. Under the Department’s Lease Construction program Murray Jarrell will construct the new building at the south west corner of Ivy and Square Streets and lease it to the De partment for ten years, with two five-year renewal options. The Department's capital in vestment is limited substantial ly to postal equipment, while the building remains under private ownership, with the owner pay ing local real estate taxes. "This formula,” Mr. Day said, "utilizes the resources and investment founds of pri vate enterprise for needed postal buildings.” The new Post Office at But ler will be constructed on a site containing 10,135 square feet, and is expected to be com pleted by May 1, 1963. It will have an interior space of 2,842 square feet, with an area of 11,937 square feet for parking and movement of postal vehi cles. More entrants for the baby contest are still coming.
