—He would have made a dif
ferent commitment, had he been
president. He has spoken out
against Viet policies in commit
tee hearings.
—The commitment is militar
ily unsound and politically un
justified. It cannot be blamed on
any one person but on congress
as a whole.
—If Viet Nam falls, the rest of
Asia will fall to communism.
—The United States must act
as a fire extinguisher and put
out “brush fire wars” started
by the communists.
—DeGaulle is unreasonable in
giving the U. S. only one year
to pull out NATO bases from
France.
—France would have dropped
to a fifth rate power during the
two world wars without the help
of the British and the U.S.
—It’s yet to be seen if France
will ally Itself with Russia and
Red China.

Fain Will Be
Lay Speaker
At 1st Baptist
Col. J. M. Fain, Atlanta, re
tired air force veteran of World
War n will be Layman’s Day
speaker Sunday at the First
Baptist Church, according to the
Rev. A. L. Walker, pastor.
An annual event, both services
will feature the men of the chur
ch in the choir, testimonies, and
special music.
After retirement from the Air
Force following World War n
Col. Fain returned to Atlanta to
establish himself In the real es
tate and insurance business. The
son of a well-known and wealthy
Atlanta family, Fain was con
verted h» 1947. Until August of
that year he said he was a
“most Irreligious playboy — a
modem prodigal in every sen
se. “Since his conversion he
has mixed religion with business
and has been successful in both.
Col. Fain is a widely used
layman in churches throughout
the nation and speaks with en
thusiasm as he tells “what Christ

Griffin Firms Get
Bills For Ads They
Didn’t Authorize
Some Griffin businessmen to
day were billed for advertising
they did not authorize in a pub
lication from Jacksonville, Fla.,
the Griffin Area Chamber of
Commerce said today.
Hie Chamber was advising
people here who received bills
from the Syrian Labanese Star
not to pay them until an inves
tigation can be made.
Anyone having any informa
tion on the firm has been re
quested to call the Griffin
Chamber of Commerce.
Stars Will Pay
To
COSBY, Tenn. (UPI) — The
voice of country music’s first
lady, Kitty WeUs, will echo
from the mountains surround
ing Kineauvista neat Sunday
when an estimated 10,000 to 15,
000 persons gather to pay hom
age to the lowly ramp.
Joining Kitty to provide en
tertainment for the throngs will
be her husband, Johnny Wright,
her daughter, Ruby and other
country and western entertain
ers.
The Lefevre trio from Atlan
ta will provide a gospel music
background for the gathering
where leading political candi
dates—both announced and un
announced-will be sprinkled
through the crowd.
Despite the entertainment and
the opportunity for the politi
cians to meet the voters, the
main star of the day is the
ramp, a member of the lily
family which grows in the shad
ed mountain coves more that
3,000 feet above sea level.
Innumerable boxes of the un
forgettable little weed are al
ready stored in the cooler at
the local high school, waiting
for those who like them fried
into scrambled eggs or ham or
other delicacies.
There are some brave souls
who eat them raw, claiming
they “cleanse the blood.”
The ramp has been described
in many ways. Perhaps the
best is the one which calls it
better than an onion in taste
and worse in smell.
Afficianadoes say the vege
table has a taste that is fresh
as a maiden’s kiss, but a smell
that lingers on the breath long
enough to alienate any non-par
ticipating friends.
Kineauvista is the new loca
tion for the 13th annual Ramp
