What's become of
■■
the old swimmin' hole?
PROBABLY it’s there yet, shade-dappled and
cool as ever. But a modern swimming pool
can look mighty inviting to busy people in^
growing towns.
Many such pools are included in well
planned, well-equipped recreational centers,
established through the efforts of civic
minded people interested in improving their
home towns.
Through the years representatives of our
Community Development Division have
worked with many others to make Georgia
towns better places in which to work and
live. This year these representatives are help
ing with more than 120 community, county
and area planning programs.
Community development is another im
portant way in which this company continu
ously endeavors to be a good citizen.

RONALD F. ADAMS
Runs for Congress
Ronald F. Adams
Is Candidate
For Congress
I hereby announce my candi
dacy for the office of Representa
tive from the Eighth Congres
sional District of Georgia, subject
to the rules and regulations of
the Democratic Party of Georgia
and the Eighth District Execu
tive Committee for the Septem
ber 14th Primary.
I entered this race and make
this announcement because it is
my earnest desire to serve the
people of this Congressional Dis
trict in the manner I believe we
are entitled to be served.
I believe that every segment of
the people of this District should
have representation in the Halls
of Congress, and not just the
privileged few.
I believe that the people of this
Nation should be FIRST SERVED
with our tax money.
I am of the firm belief that
every farmer should have a mini
mum of three acres tobacco allot
ment without reduction of acre
age to anyone.
I favor and will introduce
legislation to provide an import
tax on all farm products that
come into this county in compe
tition with the products raised
on our farms, a law that will
guarantee the farmer of our na
tion a fair price on everything he
raises.
I believe that labor is entitled
to its pay: I believe that all
honest labor should have fair
representation in Congress.
I believe that both business and
management should be operated
with a minimum of Government
regulation and interference.
I believe in the Southern way
of life and I am tired of the
South being the Nation’s “whip
ping boy,” and I intend to be
heard in the Halls of Congress.
I will actively support legis
lation which will put legal re
quirements on membership to the
Supreme Court.
I will work constantly to bring
industry into our rural Eighth
District counties to better bal
ance our agricultural economy.
I pledge you that I will not put
my relatives on the payroll and
I will employ only residents of
the Eighth District in my Wash
ington office.
I pledge you fair, honest, sob
er and diligent representation as
YOUR CONGRESSMAN.
If you believe as I believe, I
will greatly appreciate your vote,
your support and your influence
in electing me YOUR CON
GRESSMAN.

Pierce Woman
Is Injured in
Head-on Crash
Mrs. Mary Ellen DeLoach
Clauss, 20, daughter of Mr. and
Mrs. W. T. DeLoach of Black
shear, was reported Wednesday
morning to be resting well
in a Jacksonville hospital follow
ing last Thursday’s auto accident.
Mrs. Clauss, who resides in For
rest Hills, N. Y., was riding with
her cousin, Alton Cleveland Hen
derson, Route 2, Blackshear,
when the 1960 Ford Falcon which
17-year-old Henderson was driv
ing was hit head-on about a half
mile north of Blackshear on
Highway 203.
She received head injuries and
leg bruises and cuts. Mr. De-
Loach told The Times that Mary
Ellen was resting well following
a spinal tap Tuesday afternoon.
He said doctors indicated she
would improve rapidly following
the operation, but expected her
to remain in the hospital there
for another week or ten days.
Henderson sustained cuts and
bruises and was treated at Pierce
County Hospital before being re
leased.
Driver of the other vehicle, a
1952 Buick, was Arthur Lee Car
ter, 20, colored, Route 2, Black
shear.
The collision occurred at 9:10
P. M. when Carter attemped to
pass a pickup truck driven by
John Peacock and .met the Hen
derson vehicle head-on. Carter
was traveling north, the Hender
son car south, according to the
State Patrol.
Investigating the accident were
Troopers J. M. Moses and F. F.
Cornelius.
Charges of exceeding the legal
limit, illegal passing, driving an
auto with faulty brakes and
failure to grant right of way
were placed against Carter.

Employment
Security Week
Is Proclaimed
“Governor Ernest Vandiver has
proclaimed August 14-20, 1960,
Employment Security Week, in
observance of the 25th anniver
sary of the enactment of the
Social Security Act,” Georgia
Commissioner of Labor Ben T.
Huiet announced this week.
‘The original Social Security
Act provided for a nation-wide
payroll tax from which job in
surance was to be paid in those
states having an Employment
Security law. The Georgia Gen
eral Assembly in 1937 passed
such legislation in order to pro
tect Georgia workers from the
economic woes of unemployment
and to return taxes paid by Geor
gia employers to the state and
economy it serves.”
Commissioner Huiet stated that
since the program started $251,-
101,352 have been channeled into
Georgia’s economy through job
insurance. The Employment Se
curity program is administered
in Georgia by the Georgia De
partment of Labor’s Employment
Security Agency, Marion Wil
liamson, director.
“In addition to bolstering per
sonal income when work pay
was sagging, the Employment Se
curity program has provided the
way for Georgia employers to
save over $3lO million in taxes
which otherwise would have
gone to the federal treasury.
These millions have done much
to bolster the general economy
and undoubtedly represent a
great part of the State’s industrial
and economic growth.
“Employers may well make fur
ther savings for themselves and
other employers by using the
Georgia State Employment Ser
vice to fill job vacancies. Last
year alone, over 30,000 qualified
workers were laid off due to lack
of work, technical changes and
other reasons. If more employers
use the Employment Service,
these workers get on payrolls
sooner, and their former employ
ers’ tax rates are kept from ris
ing,” Huiet said.
Last year Georgia employers
filled 123,615 non-farm and 152,-
936 farm jobs through the
Georgia State Employment Ser
vice. These jobs ranged from exe
cutive and top engineering work,
high skills like machinists through
trainees, helpers and labors.
“Georgians numbering over
740,000 earning around $2.7 bil
lion annually have their income
insured through the Employment
Security job insurance program.
The insurance trust fund now ex
ceeds $143 million, sufficient to
meet any anticipated economic
crisis, and job insurance is one of
the major reasons economic col
lapse is highly unlikely to ever
occur again in Georgia or the
