grees. .
Mr. Arnall, who has practiced
law at Newnan and Atlanta’
since leaving public office, is the
author of two bools, “The Shore
Dimly Seen” and “\What the Peo
ple Want,” the lstter written
after he had traveé'ed more than
75,000 miles throughout the Uni
ted States,
At the time of his election to
the governorship of Georgia, Mr.
Arnall was the youngest state
chief executive. As governor, he
successfully fought the attempted

Born in Newnan, Mr. Arna'l

The citation read at the cere
monies todey is as follows: “In
this age of many voices, some
seeking to confuse, others to en
lighten, the voice of Ellis Gibbs
Arnall rings out with clarity and
sincerity for human (iberty and
humen rights. As lawyer, Attor
ney General, Governor of Geor
gia, author and extensive traveler,
he has quickened his thoughts
and convictions into constructive
sction and not only brought about
the needed reforms in long
standing abuses in his own state,
but fostered a better understand
ing of the enlightened South
throughout the nation. Clear
thinking, sound rezsoning, and
courageous action are needes to
combat the confusicias of con
temporary life and Mr. Arna¥
hes deconstrated his fitness and
capacity for supplying these qual
ities. We wish for him many fu
{ure vears of active articipation
in public life — in literary ef
forts — and as spokesman for
those who will benefit by his
feirness, intelligence ard cour
‘age.” o

Winter grazing is very practical

otherwise be bare and subject to
erosion from the winter rains.
' These winter grazing plots cen
ke seeded in September and give
good grazing in late winter and
ean'y spring.
Under the 1948 ACP Program
the Purchase Order Plen is set
up to help farmers obtain seed
and fertilizer with a$ little cash
outlay as possible by advancing
the ACP Payment money on the
purchase price of the seed at the
' time the seed are obtained Under
this plan some fermers are alie

not otherwise be done.
Mr. McWhirter zdds that lime
