PHONE 227-4494 2 Tuesday, August 19,1969 The nation’s oldest and prob ably most widely known civil rights organization, the Nation al Association for the Advance ment of Colored People, caus tically denounced Nixon’s choice. Hayasworth’s nomination is nothing but “another political payoff to the racist senator from South Carolina...and I’m referring to Sen. Strom Thur mond,’’ exclaimed Atlanta NAACP representative Morris Dillard. “Judge Haynsworth’s record indicates that he is a reaction ary, that he is anti-black, that he Is anti - labor,” Dillard re torted and then vowed," we’ll fight the appointment, both lo cally and nationally.” The Southern Christian Lead- FTC Overules Textile Objections WASHINGTON (UPI) — The Federal Trade Commission has overruled the objections of the textile industry in reaffirming the FTC’s policy of investigat ing mergers involving textie firms. The commission voted 3 to 2 to give high priority to investi gations of mergers by textile firms with SIOO mlllon or more in assets or by nontextile firms with sales or assets In exces of $230 million and a substan tial market position in another industry. The commission said the poli cy could affect only one-half of one per cent of the firms in the industry and only five firms would feel any impact. FTC Chairman Mary Gardi- ftentwkij fried “READY WHEN YOU ARE" ership Conference was less bit ter but just as critical. The President’s nomination “means we are trying to take the nation back to legal con struction which emerged at a time when our nation had a to tal population of less than 4 million and represented only one ethnic group,” said The Rev. Andrew Young, SCLC's executive vice president. “We should be broadening the base of our Constitution to in clude protection and opportuni ty for the many racial and eth nic groupings which have done so much to make America great,” Young added. Summing up his comments, Young said “at a time when our laws need reconstruction. President Nixon seems to favor so-called constructionists.” ner Jones, who dissented, said the five most affected firms would be the ones most likely to have the greatest impact upon competition in “their hand to hand combat” with Burling ton Industries of Greensboro, N. C. Burlington was the nation’s 52nd largest industrial corpora tion last year with safes of $1.6 billion. Its closest rival in the textile industry was J. P. Stev ens of New York, the 106th ranked industry with 1968 sales of $963.1 million. The other four industry lead ers—lndian Head of New York; West Point-Pepperell of West Point, Ga.; Cannon Mills of Kannapolis, N. C.; and Dan River Mills of Danville, Va. — are much farther down the scale. The commission said it reaf firmed the policy because of critical .recent developments in the textile industry.

BRANDSTADT, M.D. Q—ln my work, my hands are constantly in and out of hot soapy water. Now my fingers are splitting and peeling. Can this be pre vented? A— This condition, some times called dishpan hands, is often kept going indefinite ly by overtreatment with strong disinfectants or anti biotic ointments. If you must put your hands in water con taining a soap or detergent, you should wear rubber gloves that are lined with cotton. Remove the gloves as soon as you are through and put them where the inside lining can dry out. They should be replaced with new ones at frequent intervals. Q—My doctor says I have carpal tunnel syndrome in both hands .-'What does this mean? Would an operation cure it? A—This is a burning dis tress in the thumb, index, middle and half of the ring finger plus the correspond ing two-thirds of the palm. Later there may be weak ness in this area. It may be caused by anything that presses on the median nerve as it passes through the tun nel formed by the muscles and ligaments of the wrist. It may be associated with arthritis but, in many cases, the underlying cause cannot be found. If treatment is sought early enough, an injection of Food, Clothing Flown To Miss. MARIETTA, Ga.

If it is chronic and growing progressively worse, the pressure on the nerve should be relieved by a surgical operation. Q—-My doctor says I have trigger finger. He gave me two injections of hydrocorti sone and said that, if this doesn’t help, he may have to operate. What causes this condition and what is the best treatment? A—The cause is a thicken ing of one of the tendons of a finger or a narrowing of the tendon sheath. In this condition, closing the fist causes a snapping sound. In most cases, relief is ob tained by an operation to in crease the size of the tendon sheath. Q —What harm may result from a woman eating about a teaspoonful of sand a day. Will her system eliminate it? A—There will be no harm from this if the sand is clean. It will not be digested and will be eliminated without any trouble. It may be, how ever, that her system lacks iron. (Newspaper enterprise Assn.) Please send your questions and comments to Wayne G. Brandstadt, M.D., in care of this paper.

SIO,OOO US Says North Viet Guilty Os Unconcern By JOHN F. SIMS PARIS (UPI)—A U.S. Official at the Vietnam talks said today North Vietnam was guilty of "cruel unconcern” toward hun dreds of families by refusing information about its American prisoners of war. The official, a member of the U.S. negotiating team who asked not to be identified, said the United States has made repeated approaches to North Vietnam on the subject to no avail. According to U.S. officials, the United States has the names of some 1,350 American servicemen listed as killed or missing in action in Vietnam but that only about 340—most of them pilots—were known to be prisoners of the Commu nists. The negotiating team official said the North Vietnamese “will not even give us a list of Foils Holdup RENO, Nev. (UPI)—Two men brandishing guns and wearing silk stockings over their heads failed to Impress bartender Donald Mitchell when they demanded money from his cash register. “If you’re going to / murder rne, go ahead. If not, get out!” he said. “Heck,” said one' as the -’’eicted bandits turned and walked out. ■X* ANDA r DIGNIFIED COURTEOUS SERVICE ™ HAISTEN'S JACKSON GRIFFIN BARNESVILLE 327 32,3! 3 St-IVII For Our Ad on "Farms and Land", Please refer to Hie Thursday Edition of this Paper. prisoners that are being held, thereby showing cruel uncon cern to hundreds of wives and families.” However, since the last U.S. appeal to the Communists, which was ignored, more information about the plight of U.S. prisoners in North Viet nam has come to light. Three servicemen returned to the United States two weeks ago from captivity in Hanoi and filled some of the gaps in U.S. knowledge of what is happening in North Vietnamese prison camps. But it fell far short of giving a full picture. The U.S. official said the Communist attitude was one of “gratuitous cruelty,” especially since the information “cannot have any effect on the war.” He suggested Hanoi felt it was "exerting some sort of pressure on us and our people by keeping the U.S. in the dark Automobile, Homeowners Commercial Insurance NEWTON INSURANCE We earnestly solicit your business.
