What would you do
without electricity?
Very little. You couldn’t enjoy any of the
electric comforts and conveniences, of course. You
also probably wouldn’t enjoy a very high standard
of living, because the availability of electric power
is a very large factor in building business, industry,
fcbbs and prosperity for us all. Which is why it’s a
Tvery good thing that Georgia’s consumer-owned
electric utilities were formed. Without us, some
1.25 million Georgians living over 80% of the area
of the state would be powerless. And prosperity-less

pecung buyers, but said that
he had just received confirma
tion that the cars were now ac
tually on the market in Georgia.
"Even a mechanic would have
trouDie spotting the potential'
dangers in these cars,” Harris
said. "Much of the damage
done by the flooding was inter
nal -- in the transmission,
differential or engine block
and might not show up for sev
eral months.”
Harris said that minor ex
ternal “touching-up” could lead
PAGE 20
a purchaser to think he were
buying a new or low-mileage
used car at a bargain price.
"It might be theworstpurchase
of his life,” the consumer ex
pert warned.
According to Harris, a car
buyer should check several
points on a suspected car for
water signs: all dashboard gau
ges, carpeting and the trunk
area, behind the rear seat or
in the glove compartment, and
all flexible wiring and rubber
Hoses.
The state's new mental health
chief, Dr. Gary Miller, with a
team of his top program ad
ministrators, last week began a
tour of Georgia's mental health
facilities that will by late Nov
ember give the Atlanta-based
experts a chance to survey
some 30 community and insti
tutional programs of care for
the mentally disturbed.
Although the tour has "get
acquainted” overtones for the
36-year-old psychiatrist, who
took over as Department of
Human Resources mental health
division director on Aug. 1, Dr.
Miller says there are other,
wider ranging reasons for the
trip.
"Under the state's reorgan
ization plan we are broadening
our concept of care,” the of
ficial explained. "We're begin
ning to merge our services with
others to deal with the full
range of human problems,
including general health, hou
sing, economic and vocational
areas as well as mental health.”
According to Dr. Miller, the
Department of Human Re
source s goal "is to provide
immediate and effective human
services of which mental health
is just one component.”
The services, says the psy
chiatrist, "should be respon
sive to the widest possible var
iety of human needs suid Should
be delivered as close as poss
ible to the client’s family and
community.”
Dr. Miller commented that in
Georgia --as well as in many
other states state hospital
and community mental health,
mental retardation and alcoho
lism efforts tend to become
"competitive and somewhat di
vided” although they are
working toward the same broad
goals.
"We hope to closely inte
grate the state and regional
hospital programs with those of
communities,” stated the offi
cial. He stressed that "a single
system of services” concept
will provide helping programs
of uniformly high quality.
Touring with the state men
tal health director will be Dr.
Charles K. Bush, director of
hospital services, and three
state coordinators of comm
unity programs: Derril Gay,
mental health; Dr. Tom Mc-
Connell, mental retardation;
and Charles Methvin, alcoholi
sm. Other key state-level staff
members will also participate
in some phases of the tour, ,
said Dr. Miller.
The tour is scheduled to in
clude the North Georgia Mental
Health Center in Gainesville
on Sept. 20.

"A buyer should also be very
suspicious of corroded metal
anywhere on the vehicle,” said
Harris.
He added that the Georgia
Automobile Dealers Associa
tion is cooperating fully with
the Human Resources agency in
Issuing the “consumer alert”
warnings. "They have already
warned their member dealers
across Georgia,” Harris said.
"The best advice we can give
a potential new or used car
buyer is to know your dealer.” .
