What The
People Say
e i i
Likes Thompson
Editor, Banner-Herald,
Athens, Georgia
May 23, 1950
Editor, Banner-Herald,
The following article is one that
I would like for you to publish in
your Letters to the Editor column.
We are in a campaign now which
will decide the future of our State.
1t is more than merely the talk of
better roads, greater schools, and
a happier people; for it is action;
wise, swift-moving action on the
part of a wise and swift-moving
governor that will save us from
the robbery of the future of our
children, that w:ll save us from a
government which takes away our
power to rule and to direct, and
to prepare for a brighter future.
1t is a fight for you and for me.
It goes beyond us to those who will
come after Us; it goes away from
us to those who willshear what we
have done, and who will say we
have acted rightly or wrongly. For
ours in the State of Georgia is a
matter which will be known to
people all over the country, and
long after we are gone, little chil=
dren will say that we remembered,
or forgot them.
Education is for all, and it is the
right of the individual to grow:
to know how to farm better, how
to conduct his business better, or
how to be a better man or woman.
It is our responsibility, then, to
see that the child reecives the
training to which he is entitled,
for it is only through our interest
in him that the child can find a
good life.
Where are we going? What are
we trying to do in the State of
Georgia? Are our teachers really
paid? Are our schools well-equip~
ped? Has our present governor
kept us in mind? Or, has he looked
after his own interest, forgotten
us? Has he adopted the Minimum
Foundation Program?
The truth of the matter is that
only one man, Mr. Thompson, a
former school-teacher himself, has
made his stand on education
CLEAR. Education, as he says,
must be made first in the State,
and we must all get out and fight
for education.
Those who would say this is
politics do not tell the story in
fulll. For I say it is today and
tomorrow; what is going to hap
pen to you and to me; and to my
children and yours.

conditions other than dishonora
ble.
The widow may draw benefits
for dependent children under 18

the following rates of payment to
the widows and children who
come under this law:
