* POLITICS ON
PARADE
By SII) WILCIAMS
The former Acting Governor of
Georgia, M. E. Thompson, was oft
en dubbed with the nickname “Me
Too.” In fact, we seem to recall
that Atlanta Newspapers were
among the first to give Mr.
Thompson this title.
Now, however, Mr. Thompson
can shake the shackles of “Me
Too” forever. He has been re¬
placed by a far greater “Me Too
er”—the Honorable Senator Wal¬
ter F. George.
Since he decided to run again,
Senator George has “Me-Toc-ed”
anything he thinks will help get
votes — things which other Geor¬
gians have been supporting for
years.
The Senator has “Me-Too-ed ’ •
segregation — after waiting near¬
ly two years from the Supreme
Court decision of 1954.
He has “Me Too-ed” a tax cut
—after voting all these years for
more and more taxes on the little
man.
He has "Me-Too-ed” aid to
Georgia farmers — after voting
in several terms of Congress just
as Secretary of Agriculture Ben
eon wanted him to vote.
He has “Me Too-ed” the flag,
motherhood, democracy, and any¬
thing else that might be good for
a few votes.
Now, to top it off, he last week

j man Talmadge has criticized since
j it was first mentioned.
I In fact, the Senator has -1 Me
Too-ed” Talmadge on so many
things that one might think “Me
Too” Thompson is going back and
resurrecting his old campaign
speeches and furnishing them to
the distinguished senator.
Unfortunately for the senator,
the people of Georgia recognize a
“Me Too-er” when they hear him.
State Senator Everett Millican,
of Atlanta, is certain to have op¬
position for re-election, if he runs.
Among those mentioned who may
oppose him are former County
Commissioners Shorty Doyal and
Charlie Brown, former Atlanta
Mayor Koy I.eCraw, and Ralph
McClelland, Atlanta- attorney. Mc¬
Clelland is mentioned, also, as a
possible candidate against Fulton
Representative “Muggsy” Smith.
If Millican doesn’t run, Repre¬
sentative Hoke Smith will make
the race.

Union which has not had a de¬

Southerners cart take heart in
the segregation fight' from the
speech made at the national At
torneys-General convention by the
Attorney-General of New Hamp¬
shire, who criticized vigorously ef¬
forts of the United States Su¬
preme Court to take away the
rights of the various states. He
said that all the states need to
stand together against this “en¬
croachment of states rights” to
prevent a centralized government
which would leave no rights to
the individual states. Many poli¬
ticians in the North, and a great
majority of private citizens, agree
with this viewpoint.

Pete Wheeler, Director of the
Georgia State Department of Vet¬
erans Service, has criticized se¬
verely the report by the Presi¬
dent’s Commission on Veterans
Affairs, which has recommended
that benefits to veterans be grad¬
ually reduced and ultimately
brought to a close.
Wheeler said that “we must
never ferget that the care and
treatment of disabled veterans is
as much the total cost of war as
is the purchase of planes, ships
and other weapons.”

Ever wonder what it’s like to be a
direct salesperson and meet cus¬
tomers in their homes? “It's hard
work.” says Elsie Jordan, who sells
a well-known brand of silver, “but
it's also fun.”
“You learn a lot about people
when you sell them in their homes,’’
Miss Jordan points out, “and you
learn to express yourself convinc¬
ingly. The training they give you
helps a lot, of course, but the expe¬
rience helps even more.” (Miss
Jordan, who was trained by Emily
Post only four years ago, today has
a fabulous income.)
