Prime Minister Golda Meir says a top American official
will visit Israel within the next two weeks but she is not
aware whether he will bring new proposals from
Washington on how to find peace in the Middle East
Mrs. Meir, in a statement to her ruling Labor party
Tuesday, said Assistant Secretary of State Joseph J. Sisco
was making the visit but denied Israel had attempted to
avert Sisco’s trip for fear of renewed American pressure
i for further Israeli concessions on Middle East issues. The
meeting was private but the details were leaked to the
press.

installs
unit prices
The Winn-Dixie food store in
Griffin as well as others in the
organization announced in
stallation of a unit price system
today.
Store officials said this will
help shoppers to determine
which are the best values with
out having to do a lot of figuring
with ounces and prices.
Officials said the new system
will make it possible for
shoppers to tell at a glance cost
per unit of the items on sale in
the store.
Winn-Dixie said it was one of
the first stores in this area to in
troduce such a program.

latoona as one of the most ob
jective and least political deci
sions he has ever seen.
“It turned out much better
than anybody thought it would.
It turned out to be cheaper too,”
said Odum, who is director of
the Institute of Ecology at the
University of Georgia.
Odum was part of a chorus
of protest that arose when the
State Highway Department pro
posed crossing the lake north of
Marietta in order to complete
the interestate highway.
The highway department
came up with an alternate
route several weeks ago which
bypasses all but the edge of the
lake, is three miles longer but
is considered to be about 111
million cheaper. It still must be
approved by federal authorities.
Odum told a meeting of Ki
wanians that Lake Allatoona is
part of the environmental sys
tem of Atianta. “A city is a
parasite in all ways,” he said.
“It takes things and gives off
waste.”
He said there was no short
age of data on alternate routes,
that there were 25 different
studies available. The choice, he
said, came after all considera
tions were carefully weighed.
These included the people dis
placed, the money required, the
recreational value of the land
and the future of the proposed
route, he said.
Odum said the final decision
came after a certain weight was
placed on each consideration and
then applied to a mathematical
formula.

Leadership
struggle
in Senate
ATLANTA (UPI)-A leader
ship struggle among Senate
Democrats that has been shap
ing up in recent days may come
to a head today when a subcom
mittee meets to consider
changes in party caucus rules.
The dispute centers around
tiie post of Senate Majority
Leader, now held by Sen. Al
Holloway of Albany, a support
er of Gov. Jimmy Carter.
Some senators siding with Lt.
Gov. Lester Maddox, who pre
sides over the Senate, are re
portedly trying to oust Holloway
because they feel he has neg
lected his party post by his
close association with the gover
nor.
Sen. Eugene Holley of Augus
ta, a Maddox backer, has al
ready announced he will seek
the leadership position if Hollo
way is bounced.
Carter entered the dispute by
reaffirming his support of Hol
loway and declaring that the
Albany legislator will continue
as his floor leader in the Sen
ate “whether or not he is ma
jority leader.”
Referring to reports that re
apportionment may be used as
a threat to senators in the pow
er play, Carter said he would
use his veto power to stop any
attempts at gerrymandering to
force senators to vote for Hollo
way’s ouster.
He warned that making a po
litical issue out of reapportion
ment in this way was “tread
ing on dangerous ground” and
could bring intervention by the
federal courts, something “we
certainly do not want.”
State Sen. Lamar Plunkett of
Bowden scolded his colleagues
for getting into “petty power
struggles that could be demean
ing to the State Senate and to
tiie people who elected us.”
Holloway has been critical of
tiie system which makes com
mittee appointments the respon
sibility of the lieutenant gover
nor and urged his fellow sena
tors to “wrest control of the
Senate from the lieutenant gov
ernor’s office” so that it can
function as a fully independent
body.

Exchange
collecting
papers, mags
The Exchange Club of Griffin
has adopted a project looking
toward a reduction of air pollu
tion and at the same time aiding
its local charities.
The club is collecting
newspapers and magazines
which it will truck to Atlanta
and sell to a paper company.
Dr. Lester Luttrell, president of
the Exchange Club of Griffin,
has appointed a committee to
head this project. The commit
tee is composed of Sam Martin,
Dan Boyd, Gordon Milling, Jr.,
Robert Langford and W. H.
Beck, Jr.
The members of the commit
tee request that anyone having
newspapers and magazines
which they wish to contribute to
aid this project call a member
of tiie committee and he will

that the papers and the maga
zines be bundled separately.
The Exchange Club believes
that this will be a help to the
sanitary department of the city
and at the same time reduce air
pollution and aid the dub
charity programs.

We all did love you so much
and miss you today and
always.
