Gingrich lists his
Spewrell objections
Special interests “dominate
our government to feed their
own greed”, Newt Gingrich (R-
Carrollton) charged during a
talk to the Georgia Conservancy
meeting in Griffin last night.
Gingrich, who is seeking to
unseat Rep. John J. Flynt (D-
Griffin), was invited along with
his opponent to discuss the
Sprewrell Bluff Dam project.
Rep. Flynt declined to appear.
Rep. Flynt has advocated
construction of the dam in the
past, listing as his two
justicications flood control and
generation of electrical power.
Gingrich blasted both con
cepts and quoted extensively
from a General Accounting
Office report entitled “En
vironmental and Economic
Issues of Planned Construction
of Spewrell Bluff Dam in
Georgia”.
“The Flint flows so slowly and
carries so little water that it will
only generate power 44 days of
the year” Gingrich said,
“considering that there have
been only two floods since 1925
on the Flint River, it would take
13,000 years to justify spending
$250,000.00 on a flood control
project,” he said.
Gingrich also blasted the idea
that building the Spewrell Bluff
Dam would create a new
recreational lake.
“We have several
Wildwood
sets series
A weekend revival will be
held at the Wildwood Baptist
Church featuring the Rev. John
Riding of Peru. He will
illustrate some of his sermons
with picture color slides.
The series will run Sept. 27,28
and 29 beginning at 7:30 each
night.
The pastor is the Rev. Guy
Starrett.

recreational lakes in the im
mediate area” Gingrich said.
“We do not have a free
flowing river which can be used
by families for canoeing, raf
ting, swimming and picnicing.”
He said “there is no rational
long range argument for the
dam” and “the only short term
benefit would be the creation of
temporary jobs in the lower
Flint River Area”.
Gingrich urged all those
present to get involved in the
present political race, regar
dless of which side they chose to
support.
