Congressional
V Roll Call
WASHINGTON — Here’s how
area members of Congress
were recorded on major roll call
votes Oct. 30—Nov. 5.
HOUSE
FOOD MARKETING -
Passed, 299 for and 95 against, a
bill (HR 10339) to further the
nationwide trend of establishing
direct farmer-to-consumer
marketing of food in urban and
suburban areas. The bill would
help state departments of
agriculture and federal agricul
ture authorities promote and
organize such marketing, which
is viewed as a means of getting
cheaper and healthier food into
the marketplace.
HR 10339, which authorizes
$1.5 million for fiscal 1977,
was sent to the Senate.
Reps. Bo Ginn (D-l), Dawson
Mathis (D-2), Jack Brinkley (D
--3), Elliot Levitas (D-4), John
Flynt (D-6), Bill Stuckey (D-8)
and Robert Stephens (D-10)
voted “yea.”
Reps. Lawrence McDonald
(D-7) and Phil Landrum (D-9)
voted “nay.”
Rep. Andrew Young (D-5) did
not vote.
POSTAL SERVICE —
Passed, 267 for and 113 against,
a bill (HR 8603) rescinding the
U. S. Postal Service’s semi
private status by requiring that
its budget be controlled by
Congress. The vote reaffirmed
a similar vote conducted in late
September. HR 8603 was sent to
the Senate.
Ginn, Brinkley and Stephens
voted “yea.”
Mathis, Levitas, Flynt,
McDonald and Stuckey voted
“nay.”
Young and did not
vote.
wi i'i
CHECKING ACCOUNTS —
Adopted, 218 for and 134
against, an amendment
preventing depositors from
earning interest on c ecking
accounts. The amendment
deleted a provision of its parent
bill (HR 10024) allowing
financial institutions nation
wide to provide so-called
“negotiable order of with
drawal” (NOW) accounts,
which are now available only in
Massachusetts and New
Hampshire. The strongest
opposition to the amendment
came from commercial banks.
The bill also would continue
federal ceilings on interest
rates. And it would require
home mortgage lenders to
publicize neighborhoods which
receive their loans, in order to
combat “redlining.” HR 10024
was passed and sent to the
Senate.
Ginn, Mathis, Brinkley,
Levitas, Stuckey and Stephens
voted “yea.”
McDonald voted “nay.”
Young, Flynt and Landrum
did not vote.

food aid and emphasizes “self
help” economic programs
encouraging poor countries to
develop their agricultural and

House.

Nixon honored
SAN CLEMENTE, Calif.—Former President Richard
Nixon receives a statuette from Edward Bradley as an
award for his part in fostering physical fitness and sports
programs. The presentation was made in private at the
Nixon mansion, Casa Pacifica. Bradley Is the proprietor
of a health club in East Brunswick, N.J. (UPI)
Police force quits
South Georgia town
PEARSON, Ga. (UPI) - The
five-man police force, including
the police chief, in this south
Georgia town resigned Tuesday
in protest of the dismissal of
several cases in city court
presided over by Mayor M. C.
Mizell.
Police Chief James Adams
said Tuesday some of the cases
thrown out at a Monday night
court session involved patrons
of a local tavern operated by
Mizell’s two sons.
“I know this is a small
town,” Adams said. “But when
you have two persons do
exactly the same thing and fine
one and turn the other aloose,
there just isn’t much justice in
it.”
Mizell said today the cases
were dismissed because of
insufficient evidence and said
he did not know if the cases
involved patrons of his sons’
tavern.
“I couldn’t tell where they
(the persons charged) had
come from when they were
caught,” Mizell said. Mizell
said he did not know when new
officers would be hired, but
said City Manager Doyland
Pittman and a former Pearson
policeman are serving as a
temporary police force. “We
already got a couple of men in
mind,” Mizell said. “I am
supposed to contact some
people today.” Mizell said there
was not much crime in
Pearson, which has a popula
tion of some 1,600, and said the
temporary two-man force could
handle the job until replace
ments could be found.
Minority
firms
pushed
ATLANTA (UPI) — Atlanta
Mayor Maynard Jackson
recommended Tuesday that
minority-owned construction
firms receive from 20 to 25 per
cent of the construction work
for the expansion of Hartsfield
International Airport.
Jackson said in a report on
the city’s affirmative action
policy released Tuesday that
his administration’s goals are
now “more encompassing” in
pushing for minority participa
tion in city contracts than they
have been in the past.
Planning for the airport
expansion was stalled last
summer when Jackson issued a
demand for minority participa
tion in the engineering and
archiectural work. The airlines,
which would pay most of the
costs for the expansion, balked
and decided to reassess their
previous committments.
Jackson said Tuesday his
recommended policy, which
does not require joint ventures,
has been discussed with con
tractors and subcontractors and
that it “appears to present no
serious problem to them.”
The airlines, which have been
given a Feb. 15 deadline, have
not responded to Jackson’s
recommendations.
Farris
reports
Gulf gift
ATLANTA (UPI) — Fulton
County Commissioner Milton
Farris said Tuesday night he
had received about SI,OOO in
cash as a campaign contribu
tion from a Gulf Oil Co. courier
for his vice mayoral campaign
six years ago.
Farris said that the money
came from Claude C. Wild Jr.,
a former lobbyist for Gulf and
a personal friend, but so far as
he knew, the oil company itself
had never given anyone a
political contribution.
Farris made the disclosure
after Frederick A. Myers told
federal investigators of hand
delivering campaign contribu
tions for Wild to politicians
over the country. Myers said
one of the deliveries was made
at Hartsfield International Air
port here.
Farris said he had received
an envelope with “somewhere
in the neighborhood of $1,000”
at the airport in 1969 when he
was seeking the vice mayor’s
job. He was a vice president of
Gulf at the time but is now
retired from that post.
“The money came from Mr.
Wild, a friend of mine,” Farris
said. “I have known him for a
number of years.”
Teachers meet
at Warner Robins
ATLANTA (UPI) - The
Georgia Association of Educa
tors holds its annual fall
convention in Warner Robins
Saturday with pay increases
and the right to bargain
collectively with local school
boards among the key issues.
The 1,500 members of the
GAE’s Representative Assem
bly, representing 47,000 teach
ers in the state’s public schools,
will be putting the finishing
touches on their package for
France
to test
N-device
PARIS (UPI) - France
shortly will explode an under
ground nuclear device on
Fangataufa atoll, 720 miles
southeast of Tahiti in the
Pacific, according to reports
circulating today in Tahiti.
French officials were not
available for comment. In the
past they have refused all
comment until after the test
has been completed.
The reports of a test
explosion were underlined by
the arrival in Tahiti of an
unusual number of French
atomic energy commmission
officials and French military
officers.
The test is expected to be
code-named “Hector,” accord
ing to reports in Tahiti. It
would be the 60th French
nuclear explosion, the 42nd in
the Pacific.

surer; Nancy Conner, member
ship chairman.

Assembly next year.
They will also announce the
results of a vote on whether
teachers should stage a one-day
walkout to emphasize their
unhappiness over elimination of
a 7 per cent pay increase by
the legislature as an economy
move last summer.
GAE information officer
Christine Fristoe said the GAE
would be asking the lawmakers
to finance the pay increase and
provide a cost-of-living hike,
increase retirement benefits,
fund the state health insurance
plan, provide full financing of
the Adequate Program for
Education in Georgia, and
expand the kindergarten pro
gram to all five-year-old
children.
Other items the GAE is
expected to request are the
right to bargain collectively,
passage of the Equal Rights
Amendment and establishment
of a Standards Board which
would include teachers.
