Garrett joke, “1 never thought
I’d be on the shores of

relations. Now, I hate to eat
and run, but after this speech
maybe 1 better run.”
It wasn’t the Klan and the
Good 01’ Boys Garrett had to
worry about in this gulf side
town.
Expressing economy and
accomplishment and looking
back at the decade long federal
fight against poverty begun by
President John Kennedy,
Garrett said, “You’re going to
have to bite the bullet.”
Guaranteeing the present
administration in Washington
held a “meaningful
committment” to help
Community Action Agencies,
he added that this region-and
all regions-should “...clean up
the mess,” on the local and
state levels.
Liberalists, especially young
whites and Blacks who have
been with CAA since its
inception in the Southeast
voiced complaints later that,
“He made me damn’ mad.”
An executive director from
Georgia confided, “We’ve
bitten the Republican bullet
too long already.”
Whereas the survival of
Community Action Agencies
nation-wide has been a fear to
anti-poverty workers as well as
to low-income persons served
by the agencies, Walker said in
a release from the regional
office in Atlanta:
“We meet this year under
changed circumstances. The
question of survival of
Community Action Agencies
has been answered with the
enactment of the Community
Services Act of 1974. The
purpose and work of CAAs
have been endorsed once again
by the public and private
sectors and the poor people we
serve.”
Pointing out the difficulty
of the first decade of
“promoting the visibility of the
poor” and engaging in poverty
elimination efforts,” the
regional director was optimistic
on the future of CAAs.
“With the issue of the future
of CAAs more assured, it is
incumbent upon Boards and
staffs to perfect Community
Action Agencies as instruments
of education, advocacy,
problem solving and service
delivery in the interest of poor
people and others who share
the severity of their problems.
This.” “This”, Walker
emphasized, “is the challenge
of the second decade.”
