FEB 26th HUIET REPORTS GEORGIA ROAD TO PROGRESS STRAIGHT AHEAD ■ non WHIr w r wwEb Ji A FMPLOYMFNi BT wH It MJ z I OVER,# JS 1950 A ii® 749,700 if Atlanta, February 1— Commissioner of Labor Ben T. Huiet, left, in making the annual report for 1959 to Governor S. Ernest Vandiver, center, and the General Assembly here today said: “Governor Vandiver, the 1959 annual report of the Georgia Department of labor nails another sign on Georgia’s road to progress. The milestone, marking the beginning of a new decade, shows that 1959 ended and 1960 began with a record non-farm employment of over one million. That is double of what 1940 began with and over a fourth more than 1950. Every indication shows Georgia’s road to progress is straight ahead, towards even greater pros perity.” Looking on at right is T. M. Forbes, chairman of the Department’s Advisory Council, which was created by the General Assembly to assist Commissioner Huiet in solving problems concerning Employment Security. The Council, composed of outstanding citizens represent ing employers, employees and the general public, has played a major role in keeping the Em ployment Security Law current with Georgia’s expanding economy and her worker needs. Commissioner Huiet praised the Governor, the General Assembly and the Advisory Council for their efforts in keeping the State’s Employment Security Law close to the needs of the State’s people and keyed to its economy.

One of the major issues will be the big segre gation question which will concern the Atlanta Board of Education’s desegregation plan for city schools. Under federal court order to end racial discrimination in the schools, the Atlanta board has devised a plan contingent on Georgia legislative approval before going into effect. The plan will be submitted to the legislature. What will the legislature do, in face of Gov. Ernest Vandiver’s opposition to any weaken ing of the state’s segregation laws and in view of the solid anti-integration stand of this and past legislatures? This issue is of great import Keep up with what will happen on the spot with The Atlanta Journal and The Atlanta Constitution.

It is supported by funds from the New .'.larch of Dimes, which engaged in its January campaign for contributions to fight three major crip pling diseases including, besides birth defects, ar thritis and polio. Medical experts say that birth defects are the biggest unmet childhood medical prob lem in the United States today. There are more than 600 differ ent kinds of birth defects, or “congenital malformations,” as they are called by doctors. They range all the way from harelip and clubfoot to mental retarda tion. Some 250,000 American babies are born each year with one or more significant birth defects; and about half of this number are doomed to a life time of serious illness or crip pling. About 34,000 infants each year are stillborn because of these afflictions, or die within the first month of life. Medical science as yet has few clues to the causes of these disorders that occur before birth; and there are few known methods of prevention. Shrouded in Superstition The study center in Colum bus’ famed Children’s Hospital thus represents the beginning of the New March of Dimes attempt to solve a medical problem that has heretofore been largely neglected by re search. It is a problem that has for centuries been shrouded in fear, superstition and shame. By tackling this issue with a three-pronged program of re search, patient aid and training of skilled medical professionals, the March of Dimes organiza tion seeks to bring hope to the hundreds of thousands of par ents whose lives have peen blighted by bewildering grief ana heartbreak'following the birth Os a malformed child. This hope is bolstered by the Bist record of the March of imes organization in fighting baffling diseases. It was March of Dimes funds that encour aged Dr. Jonas E. Salk to be come a virologist and that MULTIPLE FARROWING Animal husbandmen, Agricul tural Extension Service, recom mend a system of farrowing two or more times a year — multiple farrowing. This enables a hog producer to use the farrowing house several times a year, make more efficient use of labor, mar ket hogs all through the year, and have a constant supply of pigs to keep or sell as feeder pigs- Timber Cruising, Marking, Appraisals, Management.
