Talmadge seeks city backing
for rural development plan
JEKYLL ISLAND, Ga. (UPI)
—Sen. Herman Talmadge, D-
Ga., asked municipal officials
from around the state today for
their support of rural develop
ment as a means of helping
overcrowded cities.
“More and more we are com
ing to the realization that what
benefits one benefits the other,”
Talmadge said in comparing
the interests of cities and rural
areas.
Georgia’s senior senator, ad
dressing the Georgia Municipal
Association’s 38th annual con
vention, told delegates that cit
ies are faced with massive mi
gration from the country and
yet not enough resources to
cope with the problems this
influx creates.
“Many cities are becoming
unlivable as well as ungovern
able,” he said. “In many cases,
they are seething hotbeds of
strife and disorder.”
Declaring that rural develop
ment “is an idea whose time
has come,” Talmadge said
there was growing concern on
the part of federal and local
governments, the news media
and taxpayers in general for

Savannah teachers
vote against union
SAVANNAH, Ga. (UPI)-The
AFL-CIO, in an attempt to be
come the collective bargaining
agent for Savannah teachers,
has been rebuffed in its first
efforts at unionizing teachers in
the South.
The Savannah Federation of
Teachers (SFT), an AFL-CIO
affiliate, lost by a slim margin
in a mail-ballot election to the
long-established Chatham Asso
ciation of Educators (CEA). The
vote was 604-568 with the ma
jority needed to win, 594.
SFT president Janette Carroll
announced after the vote was
officially counted Saturday that

the meeting Wednesday, and
delegates will hear a number of

weightlifting champion Paul
Anderson.
Murderer
captured
HINESVILLE, Ga. (UPI) -A
convicted murderer who es
caped from an Ohio prison was
back in jail Sunday, recaptured
after a daring, highspeed chase
with police.
Liberty County Sheriff W. E.
Philips said 43-year-old Charles
Eikleverry will probably be
turned over to Ohio authorities
if he waives extradition, even
though he was charged with
aggravated assault against a
deputy sheriff stemming from
the chase along U. S. 17.
More lanes
for highways
ATLANTA (UPI)-The State
Highway Department has an
nounced plans to spend up to
|ls million in new revenues
next year from a one-cent gaso
line tax increase for more lanes
on Georgia highways.
The department said $lO mil
lion of the extra revenue will
be used to widen two-lane high
ways into four lanes, and an
other $3 million to $5 million
will be used for adding passing
lanes to the state’s busier two
lane highways.
In addition, another $lO mil
lion from the expected $25 mil
lion increase will be allocated
annually for the highway-widen
ing program, the department
said.

establishing a better economic
and population balance between
rural and urban America.
“Ours is the richest and the
most resourceful nation in the
world, and it makes no sense to
try to crowd 75 per cent of the
people on 2 per cent of the
land,” Talmadge, chairman of
the Senate Agriculture Commit
tee, told the city officials.
He cited industrial develop
ment and the availability of
more jobs as key factors in
aiding rural areas and stem
ming the migration to cities,
which he called nothing more
than swapping “rural" poverty
for the urban ghetto.”
In addition to local, state and
federal government support,
rural development needs the
help of private enterprise, said
Talmadge, and he noted that a
bill introduced by him and sev
eral others in the Senate last
week was designed to promote
industry in undeveloped areas.
Talmadge said the bill was
aimed at preventing the pirat
ing of industries from one place
to another and would allow
small towns and counties to ob
tain credit for construction of
her organization would chal
lenge the election. She referred
to 32 ballots which were dis
qualified and said they were
probably intended for the SFT
but the teachers were afraid to
sign them.
The CAE, associated with the
Georgia Educators Association
and the National Educators As
sociation, has been the tradi
tional representative of Savan
nah teachers in the past.
Jim Williams, southeast re
gional director of the NEA, told
the Chatham County School
Board after the election that
they and the CAE would have
to begin work immediately on
a new contract for teachers.
Referring to the vote, Wil
liams said, “I think it’s prece
dent-setting for the South. We
feel that the united teaching
profession has foiled the union’s
first attempt to gain a foothold
in the South.”
The SFT, which depends
heavily on black teachers for
support, predicted victory in
Chatham County, where 40 per
cent of the teachers are black.

Cities
want
hike
JEKYLL ISLAND, Ga. (UPI)
—The directors of the Georgia
Municipal Association have
called for a one-cent increase
in the state sales tax and a
federal revenue sharing pro
gram to ease their tax burden.
The 38th annual convention of
the Association got under way
Sunday with the board adopt
ing resolutions to {resent to the
general membership.
The sales tax increase is
based on a bill which would
remit 40 per cent of the rev
enue generated to the local
school systems with the remain
ing money going to local gov
ernments in Georgia.
The measure included a man
datory lowering of ad valorem
property taxes as a pre
requisite for local participation
in the distribution of revenues.
Columbus Mayor J.R. Allen
said, “In one district in Co
lumbus, this would mean a 5.2
mills decrease in the ad va
lorem tax rate.”
Sen. David H. Gambrell
spoke to the board, saying his
membership on the Senate
Housing and Urban Affairs
Committee can help provide “a
first class service to cities and
towns in Georgia.”
