having submitted the prize winning sketch. Other

Carter backers geared up for race
ATLANTA (UPI) - Gov.
Jimmy Carter still won’t say
much about his probable bid for
the Democratic presidential
nomination in 1976, but his
supporters are gearing up just
in case the governor decides to
plunge into the race.
The “Committee for Jimmy
Carter” has set up offices in
downtown Atlanta to promote a
presidential bid by Carter, who
has been widely mentioned as a
contender for the nomination.
Busbee
will name
blacks
ATLANTA (UPI) — Gov.-
elect George Busbee, declaring
that state government must
have the involvement and
support of the black com
munity, said Wednesday that he
will appoint a black to his
senior staff.
Busbee, in a speech prepared
for the biracial Atlanta Hungry
Club, pledged more opportuni
ties for blacks in state
government. He said if state
government is to function
effectively “it must have the
involvement and support of the
black community.”
Busbee said Gov. Jimmy
Carter had made “considerable
progress” in hiring blacks and
he hoped to continue making
“meaningful advances” in the
coming years.

Meanwhile, a spokesman in
the governor’s office said
Carter would announce his
political plans Dec. 12.
Carter, chairman of the
National Democratic Campaign
Committee, so far has refused
to officially declare he will be a
candidate for president, but it
has been reported that he plans
to announce his candidacy.
Carter’s press secretary,
Jody Powell, confirmed reports
of an upcoming announcement,
saying, “The governor will
announce his future political
plans on Dec. 12, at the
National Press Club in Wa
shington, then return immedi
ately to Georgia to make the
same statement to his Georgia
friends.”

governor expires in January,
acknowledged the office had
been opened but refused to say
what its purpose was, adding
that he had not been in the
office. He admitted, however,
the project could be involved in
making “some plans for the
future.”
The office, opened last week,
is headed by former Carter
executive secretary Hamilton
Jordan, director of the commit
tee. The group has already filed
a campaign financial report
with the General Accounting
Office in Washington.
The committee was set up 10
days ago to encourage Carter
to run, Jordan said.
He said its main purpose is to
“get ready,” depending on
what Carter decides.
“We’re getting in some small
stuff (contributions),” at the
office, which Jordan said is
being financed through dona
tions.
In his role as chairman of the
national committee, Carter
campaigned in several states
for Democratic candidates
prior to the recent national
election and he has been widely
mentioned as a contender for
the Democratic nomination in
1976.
Jordan was executive direc
tor of the national campaign
committee under Carter. Others
working in the Atlanta office
include Steve Chandler, a
former researcher for Carter
who also worked for the
national committee, and a
secretary.
