Cumming Georgia, Thursday October 13, 1955. Today & Tomorrow Louie D. Newton HUMAN RELATIONS The Ten, Atlanta’s oldest liter ary club, organized back in 1898 by ten Baptist preachers, and now ] having only one Baptist preacher, is just now devoting a year’s study to Twentieth Century Leadership Judge Samuel H. Sibley gave the first paper in the present series on Statecraft in the Twentieth Cen turyy, and last Friday evening Dr. J. R. McCain gave the second pap er, having for his subject, Human Relations in the Twentieth Century Dr. McCain used two persons— President Franklin D. Roosevelt, and Mr. John D. Rockefeller, Jr. He cited the late President as a man who made his contribution to Human Relations in the field of political leadership, while Mr. Rockefeller had made his contribu tion in the field of philanthropy. He traced the major events in the administrations of President Roose velt that dealt with human relat ions, reminding us of the Presi dent’s rare ability to dramatize his proposals by catchy phrases—“the forgotten man,” “the four free doms,” "the new' deal.” He cited the wide range of con tributions of Mr. Rockefeller in the field of human relations —the fight on malaria, the idea of county agents, helping Mexico to grow corn, cancer research, matched fin ancial aid to varied types of school and many other philanthropies which have helped people in every part of the world to become better workers, better parents, better citi zens. Human relations is an intriguing theme. Many people are making lasting contributions in this area— ! many whose names never appear | in the press or on the radio or TV I They are lighting candles rather ' than cursing the dark. They shall I have their reward. I Jesus talked a great deal about human relations. Take the so-called | Sermon on the Mount, for example I What if we tried sincerely to fol low His teachings? We would not only have the Goldenn Rule —we would have the Golden Age. And it is possible to have better human relations, lasting relation ships, based on God’s will and way for His people. “If your heart is right, give me your hand,” said an ancient prophet. Until we set ourselves to improve human relations, we had as well admit that life will be burdened with envy, jealousy, covetousness, hatred, grief and defeat. ‘ “Whatsoever ye w'ould that men should do to you, do ye even so unto them.” Two New Industries For Every County Seen By Candler ATLANTA (GPS) “We can get at least two industrial organizations in every county in Georgia within the next two years if we work at it.” Thus declared Scott Candler, se cretary of the Georgia Department of Commerce, the state’s No. 1 agency for promoting new indus tries, in a speech before the recent 22nd annual meeting of the Geor gia Municipal Association held at Radium Springs. “We don’t offer industry any thing free,” he said. “We just show them they’ll make more money in our state.” Pointing out that attracting in dustry to larger cities is not Geor gia’s primary problem, Candler said “Getting industry to the little towns is the greatest, problem.” However, he added, “Industry fol lows industry.” Then he gave this advice to Geor gia’s smaller cities and towns de siring to attract new industries: “Remember that the small South ern town has great assets in cli mate, resources and labor. You should let everyone know it. “You have to develop the things you can offer an incoming indus try and make it obvious your town is willing to cooperate. “Study your state, become sold on it yourself, and sell others on it. "Keep in mind that industry fol lows the good things of life —- good schools, churches, public health, libraries and neighbors.” BIG ROUND AND SQUARE DANCE I SAT. NIGHT, OCT. 15 BIG ROUND AND SQUARE DANCE, AT CUMMING HIGH SCHOOL GYM, SATURDAY NIGHT, OCTOBER 15, 1955. MUSIC BY THE DRIFTING HILLBILLIES, FROM MARI ETTA, GEORGIA. WE HAVE PROMISE OF ONE OF THE BEST CALLERS IN STATE Sponsored by V. F. W. Post | Governor Again Makes Georgia Stand Clear On School Issue Reaffirming Georgia’s stand against mixing the races in the public schools, Governor Marvin Griffin, in a recent speech before the Charleston S. C., County Citi zens Council, said Southerners who refuse to accept the U. S. Supreme Court’s school segregation decision are "acting according to the clear provisions of* the U. S. Constitut ion and their blood-won rights as American citizens.” Said he: “By doing so, they are following the law of the land Let me say to you, definitely and unequivoc ally, Georgia will have separate public schools or no public schools. There is no choice under our laws. Our State Constitution and laws prevent expenditure of state tax funds for the operation of mixed schools. Our General Assembly will never appropriate money for mixed schools.” With Your County Aeent Walter H. Rucker Com harvest time is almost upon us. In most areas of the county crops received more rainfall this year than in the past 3 or 4 years and most people are counting on a rather good corn crop. Those people who planted with an aim of producing a 100 bushel per acre yield and who are inter ested in becoming members of the Georgia 100 bushel corn club should have their yields checked at an early date. To have a prelimi nary check made of your yield, it will only be necessary that you notify this office. A new corn club is being organi zed this year made up of farmers who produce at least a thousand bushels of corn on 12 acres of land. This club will be called “The Georgia 1000 Busheel Corn Club”. A rather large membership is anti cipated for the first year. The av erage yield on these 12 acres will need to be just slightly more than 83 bushels per acre. It is hoped that Forsyth County will be well represented on both clubs. I am sure that we have a number of one acre plots along our streams that will reach the 100 bushel mark this year. It is very possible that we will have some who are eligible for the 1000 bush el club. This 12 acres can be made up of more than one area, so if you have at least 12 acres of corn in one or more fields you may still be eligible. Membership is free in both clubs. However, it is important that you notify me at once so that a preli minary check can be made of the yield. FORSYTH COUNTY SPELLING CONTEST Miss Ann Burton, an eleventh grade student of Forsyth County High School and daughter of Mr. Hoyt Burton of Route 5, Cumming, Georgia won the Spelling Contest last Wednesday, October sth, held at the office of the County School Superintendent. Miss Remelba Bramblett, seventh grade student of the Cumming Ele mentary School and daughter of Dr. and Mrs. Rupert Bramblett, Route 3, Cumming, Georgia was runner-up in the contest. This event was sopnsored by the Southeastern Fair. Mr. Housley states that next spring another spelling contest will be sponsored by the Atlanta Jour nal for the boys and girls of Geor gia. County Population 15,000. Number 41. NOT A SLAVE BUT A BROTHER The iniquity of slavery can never be obliterated without “the mind of Christ”. Unaided human think ing at its highest, as seen in Aris totle, defends bondage on ground of race diversity—“ Mankind is di visible into free, and the slaves by nature". But the Man of Galilee took the slave by one hand and the Owner by the other, set them face to face and said, "You are brothers”. The reason why we have the so called "Negro problem” today is that emancipation as a political ad vance has not been accompanied by the higher dynamic of "Not now as a slave, but above a slave—a brother beloved." We should look upon all people of all races as looks upon them. He “so loved the world that he gave his only begotten son that whosoever believeth on him should not perish but have eternal life”. God doesn’t judge us by the color of our skin but by the attitude of our hearts. One of the greatest scientist and one of the humblest Christians in the past generation was a negro man by the name of George Washington Carver. He had a black face but he had a pure clean heart, and a great faith in God and in God’s world. When he was a tiny boy he and his mother were slaves—they were exchanged for a race horse. He was a slave but he became a "brother beloved”. He taught a Bible Class, he spoke before the Congress, he was enter tained by the great men of his day. He was honored around the world. W. R. CALLAWAY Estimate 61 Million Motor Vehicles On Road By End Of Year The motorist with a yen to pass everything on the road might as well accept the inevitable and fall into line, the Georgia Motor Club (AAA) advised today, for by the end of this year there’ll be an esti mated 61,301,000 motor vechincles in this country. This somewhat -astronomical fig ure will include 50,954,000 passen ger cars, a 5.1 per cent increase over last year, and 10,347,000 more trucks and buses—a gain of 2.8 per cent, R. W. Schilling, President of the Georgia Motor Club, pointed out. The estimates were based on stat\ registration figures obtained by the American Automobile Asso ciation, with which the club here is affiliated, from the U. S. Bureau of Public Roads. They’re prelimi nary - not final. Don’t get alarmed at the SI mil lion plus figure, Mr. Schilling advised, for if the pattern of in creased registrations continues, there’ll be 81 million vehicles on tne roads in 1965 a mere ten years hence. Florida, with an anticipated 10.0 per cent increase in motor vehicle registrations, is experiencing the biggest gain of any state. Texas is next with 7.1 per cent, and increas es of between 6 and 7 per cent are expected in Georgia, Alabama, California, Louisiana and North Carolina. The estimated total registration of motor vehicles for Georgia for 1955 is 1,205,000. Of this number, passenger cars make up an esti mated 960,000. The per cent of in crease in total registration is 6.3 over 1954. CROSS ROADS H. D. CLUB Cross Roads H. D. Club met at the Clubhouse with 15 members present.

Public Health Dept. (By Grace Palmour, P. H. N.) An outbreak of four case of diph theria one resulting in death in Habersham County this week emphasized the fear of public health officials that the disease is attempting a comeback in Georgia Four children of the Kinney Mor ris family, Rt. 1, Alto, were infect ed. Virginia, age eight, died Tues day (October 4). Hospitalized now at Hall County Hospital in Gaines ville are: Frankie, age nine, Estelle age four, and two year-old Mary, according to Mrs. Ethel Blog, Pub lic Health Nurse in Habersham. Only recently Dr. T. F. Sellers, Director of the Georgia Department of Public Health, had said, “No child need die of diphtheria. Since modern medicine has made diph theria so easy to prevent, it espec ially saddens those of us in public health to see even one death a year from this disease." Dr. Sellers was referring to tox oid shots and booster shots which readily prevent the infection. These shots are given by local physicians or local health departments. Deaths from diphtheria have in creased from a low of 11 in 1951 to 53 in 1954, according to Dr. W. J. Murphy, State Health Depart ment Epidemiologist. The increase resulted, he said from parents not taking advantage of available im munizations.
