Congressmen
want schools
out of HEW
Three Georgia congressmen
are authors of a bill that would
pull federal education
programs out from Health,
Education and Welfare (HEW)
and make it a seperate function
of the federal government.
The bill’s authors are Rep.
Jack Flynt, Jr., of Griffin, Rep.
Phil Landrum of Jasper and
Rep. Robert Stephens, Jr. of
Athens.
The three lawmakers feel that
education is too big to be
lumped with health and
welfare. They think it should be
separated and administered as
a singular service.
Flynt in Griffin today said the
measure would be reintroduced
Jan. 3 when the new
congressional session opens. He
said it was too late for the
measure to be considered this
year.
He said he hoped the bill
would get early consideration
next year.

Love says the biggest problem facing Americans is
; probably still the the energy crisis.
“I think the energy situation remains one of the most—if
.not the most—serious situation facing the nation,” Love
said at a news conference here Friday.
Love said the nation is not moving fast enough in the
production “not only of oil, gas and coal, but also
geothermal energy. We also need more stringent |
| measures in the interim.”

set aside an SBO,OOO default judgment against rock singer
Neil Young, who was sued by a fan because the
entertainer walked out of an Oakland concert in 1973.

who turned out at the Oakland Coliseum for the concert.
Young made only a brief appearance.
Judge Ira Brown Jr. set the judgment aside Friday
because the suit had not been properly certified as a class

until it hit a clump of trees.

LUTHERANS BELIEVE
GOD TAKES THE INITIATIVE!!
W. believe God It not torn* distant spectator witching Hit creation
crumble Into nothingness, neither don God tak. Hit “ordart" from man.
GOO idl FIRST. Than wa RESPOND.
God took the Initiative In the process of creation. God again took the
first step when he entered Into a eovenant with Abraham, and in the
giving of the law. God continued to take the first step at he called the
Prophets, who boldly proclaimed God's massage among their people.
Once again, God took the Initiative In the act of redemption. In the
parson of Jmw, God became Ilka one of us. Ha lived. He worked, He
suffered. He died, not because he was "forced" to but because He
"wanted" to.
God acted in the sending of His Holy Spirit which resulted In the writing
of Scripture and In the birth of His Church. Throughout the centuries, God
has continued to act by leading and preserving His Church.
And WHAT about TOOAYtt God continues to take the "Initiative." He
is here, active in our world. God is active In the "ring" of the cash
register, in the "scurry" of the expressway, in the "scuffling" of feet
along the sidewalk. In the "sharing of a smile, and In the "lending" of a
hand to our brother.
God is taking the "initiative." God ACTSII We RESPOND! I That's
