Indians
to protest
pipeline
TUCSON, Ariz. (UPI) —
Indians will take up arms if
necessary to stop the Alaska
pipeline and “make Wounded
Knee lode like a Boy Scout
picnic,” an Indian leader said
Tuesday.
Dennis Banks, national execu
tive director of the American
Indian Movement, told a news
conference the pipeline will
damage the habitat of the
region, hurting hunting and
fishing and cause misery for
generations of Alaskan Indians
to come.
“The Indian response to the
Alaska pipeline running across
Indian land will make Wounded
Knee look like a Boy Scout
picnic,” Banks said.
AIM this year occupied
Wounded Knee, S.D. and held
off federal marshals and Indian
police in a sometimes bloody
siege.
Banks said the pipeline “will
deny Indians the right to live
the way they want, destroy the
Indian pattern of living and
cause total disruption.”
Banks scoffed at reports of a
current oil shortage.
“The current situation has
been provoked by the oil
industry so it can establish
price controls and increase its
holdings,” he said.

TONKAWA, Oklahoma — Brenda Veach, 11, removes part of storage shed from atop her
bicycle. The shed was wrapped around a tree in her back yard after being picked up by high
winds. Brenda was in the high school library when the storm struck and broke all the
windows along one library wall. (UPI)
Maddox predicts recession
Lt. Gov. Lester Maddox told
the Griffin Exchange Club
yesterday he thought there
would be a recession next year.
He said it would be tied in
with the energy crisis and the
country’s inability to maintain a
1.8 percent annual increase in
the gross national product.
Cutbacks in the economy
breed cutbacks, Maddox said.
As an example, he said an
airlines official in Atlanta had
told him it would lay off 300
pilots because the fuel shortage
would cut flights.
Maddox said if 300 pilots are
laid off, then the people who
back them up in the aviation
industry would be laid off, too.
He said the same principle
holds true in other segments of
the economy.
Maddox said there is a slim
chance the recession won’t
become a reality but he said the
odds are 99 in a 100 that it will.
The lieutenant governor said
he thought the citizens of this
country would not stand for
more tax increases.
He said he opposed the idea of
adding a 25 cent per gallon tax
on gasoline to help meet the
shortage.
Maddox said big companies
and large scale operators would
be able to pay the price but
small concerns and people on
limited incomes would not.
He said this would mean the
big concerns could buy up the
supply and cut out the little
concerns and little people.
Maddox said he favored
continued tax relief on the state
level. He pointed out the state
gave property owners a SSO
- break during the last
General Assembly session and
said he thought the state should
continue to do that at least
He said he supported the plan
of giving a SI,OOO increase in
homestead exemption.
Under other plans suggested,
Maddox said the small property
owner would get a small break
and large companies and land
holders would get the bad
breaks. He said he would oppose
these plans.
Maddox had sent out a
prepared copy of a speech he
said he would make to the club
in Griffin but he didn’t refer to
it.
In the prepared speech,
Maddox had heaped praise on
the growth of private schools in
the state.

Harvey Fogg Sr., who owns a
suburban Atlanta dealership,
said wryly, “we called the un
dertaker this morning. The
market is dead.”
Fogg said his firm normally
does about $75,000 to SIOO,OOO
worth of business a month but
“it’s nothing now.” He said
talk of gas rationing or pos
sible sharp increases in the
price of gasoline had scared off
buyers.
Winton said the propane gas
shortage “is really hurting us.
Easily 70 per cent of the mobile
homes in Georgia use propane.
It is a very critical problem,
and we’re seeing a very big
switch to people wanting mobile
homes heated by electricity.”
He said only about 11 per
cent of the mobile homes in

there is a shortage” but he
