Newspaper Page TextRONALD F. ADAMS Runs for Congress ionaid F. Adams s Candidate ; or 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 he Democratic Party of Georgia md 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 agislation to provide an import ax on all farm products that ome 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- I^Stock^ardl I News I Hog prices at our sale last Friday were: RI, $15.75; LI, $15.75; No. 2, $14.80; and feeder pigs up to $21.75.

ADAM:; 9-fl Information on Selective Service Regulations Given New procedures to identify men who would be qualified for mili tary service in an emergency, but who are not accepted under cur rent Armed Forces standards, have been put into effect by Georgia Selective Service local boards, Col. Mike Hendrix, Geor gia Selective Service Director, has announced. The new procedures have been adopted on a national basis. These men will no longer be placed in Class IV-F, Col. Hen drix said. It is expected that Se lective Service Regulations will be amended to pi^ivide in the near future a new Selective Ser vice classification for men not accepted under current standards, but who are available and who would be qualified in an emer gency, the State Director added. Until the contemplated changes in the regulations are adopted, those men the local boards find would qualify in an emergency will keep their current classifica tion. Local boards will continue to place in IV-F those men the Armed Forces are unlikely to need even in an emergency, the State Director said. Armed Forces Examining Sta tions will adapt their procedures to report to local boards after ex amination whether a man is cur rently qualified, may be qualified in an emergency, or is unlikely to be needed for military service even in an emergency, Col. Hen drix added. The State Director pointed out that current standards of ac ceptability have resulted in high rejection rates. Many of those men not being accepted today and who are now classified IV-F would have to serve in an emer gency under altered standards. Identification in advance of men qualified in an emergency will permit the local boards to save time in meeting mobilization requirements in an emergency, Col. Hendrix added. The new procedures, Col. Hen drix said, provide a more realis tic picture of the manpower re source for an emergency. It will, he added, also emphasize that re jection is temporary and that a IV-F classification does not mean a .man is unable at any time to contribute by military service, or to pursue vital civilian activi ties as circumstances may re quire. Approximately 111,864 men are classified IV-F in Georgia as of June 30, 1960, out of 497,404 men classified by local boards since 1948. Far fewer will be put in this class in the future under the new procedures. Rejection rates are based on the number actual ly examined, not the total num ber classified.

LONG I A Message From Congress woman Iris Blitch With a record of accomplishment for the entire Eighth Congres* sional District, I am seeking your continued support for my re-electioi on September 14th to the United States Congress. I am deeply grate ful for the honor of serving you and for the confidence and loyalty shown in me for the past six years. Our district has taken tremendous steps forward during the six years of our very effective partnership and many other projects are underway with our economic future in mind. I will continue to serve to the best of my ability, with devotion and dedication to duty, I found a warm reception in each of the 20 counties of the district while visiting during the brief recess of the Congress. I wish there had been time to see every person, but as you know, it was necessary that I return to Washington for the important August session. Experience and seniority have never been so important to our district as during these troubled times. Because of your continued support, I have both of these qualities. I am counting on you to stand by me as I have always stood by you to exert every effort in behalf ol my re-election on September 14th.

Created December 10, 1807 this county ranks 34th in order of founding.

Georgia’s ml bobbin plant also operates in Monticello. Jasper County is an important apricultu.a) center with cotton, peaches and pecans among the leading crops. The raising of beef and dairy cattle is also a big business, in addi tion to the mining of feldspar and mica, which began in this progressive county six years ago. In Georgia counties where the sale of beer and ale is legal, the United States Brewers Foundation works constantly to as sure their sale under pleasant, orderly conditions.
