| By BENNETT DE LOACH
oot e T ausics conaie o Governa apens
RAoe Ao 1 o and B 2o
Former Governor E. D. Rivers
of Lakeland, laying down his plat
form at Waycross, spoke of the ac-~
complishments during his two
terms as Governor and asked that
he be allowed to complete “unfin=
ished” programs which he started.
At Moultrie, James V. Carmich
ael, Marietta attorney and former
state legislator, said the prime is
sue in the summer primary was
“shall Georgia have good govern
ment and honest government?”
These two speeches started off
Georgia’s hot and unpredictable
campaign for state offices. Ban
ners, music and all the political
trappings except barbecued meat
‘were in abundance.
' The campaign openings were
not without incident.
i Campaign Handbills
Handbills were distributed in
the early morning hours at Moul
trie which Carmichael supporters
branded as “entirely fake and
false.” They read: “Big Carmich~
ael rally, Moultrie, Mr. Carmichael
especially invites his colored
’friends. A big barbecue for every
body. A good time will be had by
all. Saturday 2 p. m.” .
The Colquitt County Democra

a resolution deploring and con
demning efforts by ‘“any political
group to delißerately deceive or
mislead the voters of this area and
Georgia.”

In his talk, his first full dress
campaign speech since announcing

who “could not, or would not give

He asserted “these discredited

DEMAGOGUERY HINDER GEORGIA
IN DEVELOPMENT, RIVERS STATES
He Cites Aid River’s Administrations
JSoye Mg, MCUTR T
™St ot 1o et Tohi sDo e
Before launching into the body
of his speech, however, Rivers said
“there are two main reasons why
Georgia resources have not been
properly developed. These reasons
are demagoguery on the one hand
and selfish, greedy exploitation
on the other.
“The demagogue,” Rivers con
tinued, “who lacks vision and
courage to plan and carry out a
program of progress for the state,
must rely on prejudice for votes.
Such a man is one of my principal
opponents.
“On the other hand,” said Riv
ers, “we have had too many mil
lionaire selfish interests, mostly
from other states, exploiting us.
They just put their meney and
orated principally on his claims
that his two administrations initi
ated free text books for school
children, provided better schools
and educational opportunities and
built 5,000 miles of paved roads.
He promised to continue these
works and surpass the governors
who succeeded him.
Rivers injected the theme of
bringing “up to date” state ser
vices, putting it this way:
“The issue in this campaign is
not that succeeditg administra
tions have discontinued the free
textbooks and library program,
but the issue is that it has not
been kept up to date and is nos
now up-to date.”
Everitt’s Platform
Like Rivers, Carmichael called
for better pay for teachers. The
Marietta attorney. alse proposed
a tenure law and more retirement
pay.
The Marietta man. who man
aged the big wartime Bell Bomber
plant. came out for no new taxes,
except for schools unless svecifi
callv approved bv a peoples’ vote.{
Other planks in Carmichael’s
platform included: greater wel
fare and health programs within
income. adherence to southern
racial traditions, preservation of
the county unit system, home rule..

“But you didn’t get full value.
No. You got broken promises and
ranting dictatorship. You were
doublecrossed with fiery crosses

The former Cobb county legis
lator then said that the main issue
in the forthcoming state Demo
cratic primary July 17 is: “Shall
Georgia have good government
and honest government?
“l entered the race of my own
free will, without pressure or per

The expenses of this campaign are
being paid with contributions
from people all over Georgia.
These contributions are being ac
cepted as investments in good gov

“The very foundation of good

in this race represents that group.”
After insisting that wunder his
administrations Georgians would
have a better life, Rivers said,
“certain neglects by our state gov

the neglect of our school teachers
and our school children.”
2 Free Textbooks

he said, “provided free' textbooks

UNDERSTANDING
Says World Education
Needed To Prevent
A-Bomb Destruction
‘ NEW YORK, May 11—(AP)—
President Truman declared today
‘that until the world learns the
'science of human relationships
“the atomic bomb will remain a
frightful weapon which ihreatens
to destroy all of us’
’ Speaking before a crowd which
overflowed 10,000 seats on the
lcampus of Fordham University,
celebrating the 100th anniversary
of its charter, the President de
' clared:
I “It is up to education to bring
labout that deeper international
understanding which is so vital to
world peace.”
Mr. Truman, whose address was
broadcast over all networks, said
there was at least one defense
against the atomic bomb.
“That defense lies in our mas
tering this science of human re
lationships all over the world,” he
said. “It is the defense of tol
erance and of understanding, of
intelligence and thoughtfulness.”
The President—who studied law
in Kansas City in the early 1920’s
donned a gold-tasseled cap and a
purple-banded gown to receive
Fordham’s honorary degree as
doctor of law.
Cloudy skies which had threat
ened to chase the ceremony in
doors cleared afternoon and the
day was romfortably warm when
the President began his address at
4 n. m. (EST).
“Fducation faces the greatest
challenge in its historv,” the Pres
ident said, in preparing veterans
and other young men and women
“to live in the new atomic age.”

‘he bludgeoned her and his four
year-old step-daughter to death
April 19 and buried their bodies.
The locket, found when the
bodies. were discovered in the
‘makeshift grave late Friday, gave
‘police the lead that led to the ar

of a Muskegon Heights, Mich.,

into custody late this afternoon.

A. B. C. Paper —Single Copy, 3c—sc Sunday
In a firehouse the monkeys had
a field day—swinging from appa
ratus, sliding down poles and gen
erally tormenting frustrated fire
{ men unaccustomed to chasing such
wild life.
Midday tippliers in a tavern re
ceived unexpected stimulation —
and some apprehension—when the
|jibbering animals entered, sam
|pled some beer then ‘turned to
more potent libations. Ten patrons
left with checks unpaid.
Other monkeys swung nimbly
from ledge to ledge high on the
Hudson Manhattan Railroad Ter
minal Building. One little monkey
plunged 12 stories from another
building and was killed.
The animals had just arrived at
Henry Treffich’s pet store from
their jungle habitat when they
made their escape:
A cage in the fifth floor monkey
house was left open briefly. The
animals scurried out, opening the
doors of other cages to allow their
companions to greet the new world
en masse.
| Within a few moments, they
were out the windows swarming
over Fulton. Church, Greenwich
and Veseyv streets. .
More than 3.000 dazed specta
tars watched the antics as police,
firemen and ASPCA agents, arm
ed with nets, formed a nosse to
track down the four-legged-invad
ers.
Ten squirming monkeys were
ecaptured in the firehouse, 30 in
historic St. Paul’s Chapen ceme
tery, a grocer trapped 40 in his
store, and two were nabbed in a
laundry bag in the tavern.
