It's No Time For a Change THE JACKSON PROGKESS-ARGUS, JACKSON, GEORGIA Shaken to the core by some of the wild spending schemes pro mulgated by the Democratic platform. Sixth District Democrats should rally around the candidacy of fiscally conservative Jack Flynt and re-elect their Congressman, so that one strong voice may continue to be heard in its appeal for budget restraints. Jack Flynt has represented the Sixth District ably and well for 22 years in Washington. Now. with new spending proposals and powerful interest groups behind them, is no time to change horses and send an inexperienced Repre sentative to Washington to halt the bandito raids on the national treasury. For years, Flynt has been THURSDAY, AUGUST S, 1976 JlJf HU i MR AND MRS. DONALD W. THURMAN US. Army from February 1967 to February 1969.

It’s no time to change horses now, especially not when you are riding with the best. getaway plan you can get away with. Getting away from it all is great. Untilyouget the bill. And then you’re right back at it again. Well, maybe y ou’ve got it all backwards. The smart thing to do is to invest steadily in your getaway plan before you go. And the safest way to do it is by joining your Payroll Savings Plan at work. Before you even notice, your U.S. Savings Bonds have started to pile up.
