Maddox Hopes To
Change Assessment
ATHENS, Ga. (UPI) — Gov.
Lester Maddox said Tuesday he
will propose legislation to the
next General Assembly to
change the present statute re
quiring 100 per cent market va
lue assessment to 40 per cent.
He said if this is not done,
the value of Homestead Exemp
j tion as it now exists in Geor-
I gia will be destroyed.
Speaking to the Joint Princl
j pal’s Conference in Athens,
Social Security
Medicare Pays
In Two Ways
There are two ways to get
payment for doctor’s bills under
Medicare. No. 1— The doctor
sends in the claim for the insur
ance benefit and receives the
payment for that part of the
bill covered by medical insur
ance.
No. 2 — You pay the bills,
send in the claim and the pay
ment is sent to you. In this case,
you should call at your Social
Security office for assistance in
completing your claim. Reim
bursement may be delayed if a
claim is sent in with incomplete
or incorrect information.
Q. My husband is 68 years old
and has never worked under so

Maddox said a recent circuit
court ruling requiring 100 per
cent assessment “could raise
homeowners taxes as much as
four times and in some cases,
even more.”
He added, “I say to you that
this should not, and must not
happen.” s
Maddox also renewed his
pledge to seek an increase in
Homestead Exemption allow
ances.
expenses? R.P., Griffin.
A. Yes. He can still become
eligible for the hospital insur
ance part of medicare by filing
an application now. But, he
won’t be eligible for the volun
tary medical (doctor bill) Insur
ance until next year and then
only if he enrolls between Oct.
1 and Dec. 31 of this year.
Q. I’ve heard there’s a lot of
paper work to medicare. I have
to enter the hospital shortly for
an operation. What kind of pa
pers should I take with me? J.
T., Griffin.
A. You won’t need anything
but your Health Insurance Card.
Just show this to the admissions
clerk at the hospital. The hospi
tal will file the necessary papers
for you.
Q. Is there any place in t h e
community where I can get
help in filling out my medicare
claims forms? P.R., Griffin.
A. Yes. Take your bills and
receipts to your local social se
curity office. The office for this
area is at 435 W. Solomon Street
in Griffin.
Q. It was my understanding
(hat medicare would pay all of
my hospital bills. I recently re
ceived a bill for $65.00 from a
recent stay in the hospital.
Should I pay this? L.N., Zebu
lon.
A. Yes. Medicare does not pay
all of your hospital bills. You
must pay the first $40.00 during
each “spell of illness.” Also,
certain items and services such
as telephones, television, etc.
may not be covered at all. If
you have a private room, you
must also pay the difference.
If you have a question about
social security, send it to the So
cial Security Office at 435 W.
Solomon Street, Griffin, Geor
gia. All Inquiries must be sign
ed and should Include your ad
dress.

Fire Hazard
Inspection
ATLANTA (UPD—An inspec
tion of Georgia’s prison camps
for possible fire hazards was
begun Tuesday.
State Comp. Gen. and Fire
Commissioner James L. Bent
ley Jr., said the tragic fire that
killed 37 inmates at a Florida
work camp emphasized the "ur
gency” of the investigation.
The state Corrections Depart
ment requested the investigation
after a legislative committee
study showed several state
work camps to be firetraps.

Most High School Grads
Continuing Education
ATLANTA — Most of Geor
gia’s 1966 high school graduates
—65.2 percent from a prelimi
nary count — are continuing
their education, but a majority
of those graduates who are em
ployed full-time are earning less
than $3,600 a year.
These facts come from a re
cent “Graduate Study” by the
Georgia’ Educational Improve
ment Council, reported at a re
cent quarterly meeting of the
Council in Atlanta.
The percentage continuing ed
ucation will probably be reduc
ed to slightly better than 50 per
cent of the total when a more
thorough sampling of 1966 gra
duates has been received and
computed. Os the group report
ing post high school education,
some 68 percent are in Junior or
senior colleges in Georgia; an
other 14 percent attend colleges
in other states; 10 percent are
enrolled in Georgia vocational
technical schools with the re
mainder of the group attending
various other types of schools.
About 24 percent of the high
school class of 1966 are employ
ed full-time and 4.3 percent are
in the Armed Forces. Only three
percent are full time housewives
and about 3.5 percent unemploy
ed.
These are preliminary data
from a sampling of 2,200 stu
dents over the state. More facts
will be available as more ques
tionnaires come in and the find
ings are computerized, accord
ing to Dr. Edmund C. Martin
and Dr. Charles E. Hopkins of
the Council staff.
In a look at salaries reported, |
21 percent are making less than
SSO a week with another 47 per
cent in the SSO-$75 per week
bracket. This indicates that al
most 70 percent of the recent
graduates are making $3,600
a year or less. “This is not too
far from the established pover
ty level,” Dr. Hopkins pointed
out, “In a rather dramatic way,
it emphasizes the fact that con
tinuing education needs to be
continually stressed to students
in our state.”
An interesting fact about the
SEN. J. B. HALL
young Georgians In military tr
aining Is that 77 percent enlist
ed and only 23 parcent were
drafted. The significance of this
statics will be studied by the
Council, considering the Influ
ence of ROTC training and of
draftee rejection.
The study also shows that
more boys than girls are attend
ing community-junior colleges,
"probably to stay near home to
do part-time work,” Dr. Martin
explained. ‘
Sen. Battle of Rome and
Clifford M. Clarke of Atlanta
were nam e d as new heads of
the Qouncil, a state agency for
research and pfenning on all
levels of education. Mr. Clarke
becomes Chairman and Mr.
Hall, Vice Chairman.
Mr. Clarke, executive vice pre
sident of the Associated Indus
tries of Georgia, is a well-known
civic and business leader over
the state. A native of Savannah,
he was graduated from Arm
strong State College and Emory
University where he was named
to Phi Beta Kappa and Omi
ron Delta Kappa.
Mr. Clarke has served on nu
merous state and national com
mittees, appointed by Presidents
Eisenhower, Kennedy and John
son and by Georgia Governors
Griffin, Vandiver, Sanders and
Maddox. In the education field,
he is a former Armstrong State
College teacher and served on
the Governor’s Commission to
Improve Education in 1963 from
which the GEIC was formed.
Senator Hall is a former Berry
| College teacher and McHenry
Elementary and High School
principal. He has chaired and
served on major education com
mittees in the Georgia House
and Senate and has introduced
important education legislation
Georgia General Assembly. He
also served on the Governor’s
Commission to Improve Edu
cation.
Out-going chairmen of the
Council are Joseph A. Whittle,
a Brunswick attorney, and Char
les O. Smith, Jr., Moultrie Bus
iness man.
