he told the Griffin Kiwanls Club
Wednesday.
He said he and Rep. George
Galssert had visited Dr. Harry
Downs who directs the state Ju
nior college program and re
newed this community’s request
for consideration.
Another project ot local in

the Spalding representative said.
The project bogged down, he
said, but after local officials dis
cussed the matter with Gov.
Carl Sanders, money from the
state’s surplus was provided to
Rep. Melton deplored the prac
tice of letting General Assem
bly sessions rim past the legal
adjournment time.
When midnight of adjournment
day arrives, the session is leg
ally over, Rep. Melton said.
Stopping the clock does not
extend the session, he said.
The Spalding lawmaker sug
gested that a deadline should be
placed on the introduction of
bills so that a log jam of legis
lation near the end of the ses
sion could be prevented.
Legislators should not “dilly
dally around” with bills they
plan to introduce, Rep. Melton
said.
Rep. Melton said his remarks
were not intended as criticism
of the House speaker’s handling
of the session.
Unless Julian Bond modifies
his views, Rep. Melton said he
again would vote not to seat
the SNCC official.
Rep. Melton is a member of
the House Rules committee whi
ch will meet next month to con
sider the seating of Bond again.
Bond, denied a seat in the House
at the regular session, has been

He said the additional state
and local money was needed be
cause the lowest bid exceeded
the original construction cost
estimate.
Rumors and speculation about
the possible relocation of Route
19 also has been a subject of lo
cal interest, Rep. Melton said.
He said he went to the State
Highway Department and was
assured that the route would
not be changed under present
planning.
Rumors had indicated that the
route might be shifted way
from Thomaston and Griffin.

LOYALTY OATHS
NEW YORK (UPI) —The
American Civil Liberties Union
(ACLU) Wednesday urged the
government to remove loyalty
requirements for anti-poverty
workers in community action
programs.
John De J. Pemberton Jr.,
executive director of the ACLU,
said that to “rely solely upon
the standards of ’manifesta
tions of disloyalty’ and ‘mem
bership in subversive organiza
tions’ without definition or
precision invites those who are
most unsophisticated in politi
cal affairs to pass judgment in
a wholly arbitrary manner.”
reelected without opposition in
a special election.
The Spalding representative
said he had studied the SNCC
statement which Bond backed
and found 23 points which “give
a id and comfort to the enemy.”
Rep. Melton said the state
ments border on treason and
anyone subscribing to them is
not fit to serve in the Georgia
House.
Rep. Gaissert introduced Rep.
Melton at the Kiwanis meeting.

Q. I have a small farm and
hire only three workers. I un

A. You must report all of your
employees on the farm who are

Russell said the lengthy investi

committees had only proved
there was "no realistic alterna

in South Viet Nam.
The senator said he knew of
no one who was “happy” with
the Southeast Asia situation, but
declared he supported the U.S.

A change in circumstances,
Russell, continued, would neces
