Newspaper Page TextHighway Litter Costs Taxpayers Over SIOO Million NEW YORK, N. Y. — This year's highway litter, if laid end to end, would create the world’s record traffic jam. In fact, it would bring all traf fic to a dead stop on the preferr ed 3,000-mile route between New York and San Francisco, reports Keep America Beautiful, Inc., the national anti-litter organization. KAB says the rubbish that will be dumped on streets and high ways in 1964 if concentrated would bury the transcontinental route a foot deep in discarded wrappers The Brantley Enterprise, Nahunta, Ga., Thursday, Aug. 20, 1964 Re-Elect Allen Chappell ■K I ■ B Public Service Commissioner His 21 yean of performance on the Commission in the field of rate-making has brought Georgia national recognition.

KAB based its graphic picture of the national “litter harvest” on an estimate from the U. S. Bureau of Public Roads, that up to 20 million cubic yards of litter will be dumped this year on the nation’s streets and highways. “It will cost taxpayers over a hundred million dollars to clean up the highway mess this year,” said Allen H. Seed, Jr., executive vice president of KAB. “And the cleanup won’t be permanent! The only real solution is education. About 6000 everyday products -and 2 million acres of prime trees! Cellulose is one of man’s most useful raw materials, and you consume enormous quan tities of it. Cellulose is Rayonier’s business. Here in the Southeast, for example, we account for over 20% of U.S. output of this versatile product. Everybody? Yes indeed! For example: it’s used to make thousands of miles of fabrics and millions of tons of tire cord, cellophane, sau sage casing, photo film, plastics, cigaret filters ... and nearly 6,000 other products. ROSCOE DEAN Dean Is For Senior Citizens and Age Benefit Assistance State Senatorial Candidate Ros coe Emory Dean, Jr. of Jesup said today there is a public school poem which begins: “Grow Old Along With Me; The Best Is Yet To Be.” Dean stated that the poem con tained beautiful sentiment, full of hope and fulfillment. And it can be true. But you will not find ag ing people who believe it unless they have solid assurance of a guaranteed income, comfortable and cheerful housing, and ade quate medical care assistance. The State of Georgia and the federal government provide life saving assistance for more than 100,000 Senior Citizens who helped to build this great state. And those who receive assistance checks should NEVER feel that this is charity. It is NOT. It is simply the return of a small por tion of the taxes they have been paying for a long time. Old age assistance should be viewed in this light by both the governments which provide it and the deserv- Who uses cellulose? RAYON'I ER NATURAL RESOURCES CHEMISTRY ing people who receive it. Too many of our Senior Citizens are retired when their experience, knowledge and dedication are the biggest assets their employers could hope to have. Adjustment to forced retirement is difficult for many men and women — sometimes heartbreaking. Even a parttime employment of these productive cititzens could ease that shock and pay off for the employer. Our state government has a Commission on Aging that should be better financed so that pro grams and projects could be de veloped for our people of the Gold en Age — 60 and older. Medical science has worked miracles in the past century and put more : years into life for the American people. Now it is up to us and our government — to put more life into tne years. THE VOTING RECORD OF THE PRESENT STATE SENA TOR SHOWS THAT HE FAILED TO VOTE ON ALLOWING CITI ZENS OVER 65 DOUBLE HOME STEAD EXEMPTION. FOURTY TWO OTHER SENATORS VOTED FOR THE BILL. THE PRESENT SENATOR’S FAILURE TO VOTE ON THE MATTER DID NOT iHELP THE SENIOR CITIZENS lAND AGED PEOPLE OF THE SIXTH SENATORIAL DISTRICT. When 1 am elected YOUR NEW STATE SENATOR, I will work in every possible area for increased attention to the needs of all our Senior Citizens and Aged. If you will join this Crusade to Conserve Humanity, I know you will cast your ballot for me, Roscoe Emory Dean, Jr., for your NEW STATE SENATOR in the Sep ; tember 9th Democratic promary l election. (Adv.) CLOTHES WRINKLED? Wrinkled clothes in the dryer may be caused by over-drying. Miss Doris Oglesby, head of the Extension Service home improve ment department, says over-dry ing is sometimes a result of set ting the control for too long a period. And it may be due to articles of widely varying weights having been dried together. What’s new in Florida and Georgia? Just to keep pace with world demand for cellulose, Rayonier is embarked on another big expansion program. A good deal of money is earmarked for work at Jesup and Fernan dina Beach just to keep the company in strong competitive positions. Take away the Rayonier cellulose? You could almost as easily take away those 2-million acres of tree farms in the U. S. A. and Canada — where it all starts! m .

SU Questions and Answers from the Brantley County Department or Family And Children Services By Mrs. Leila Turner, Director 1. Is Public Assistance availa ble to a mother and her chil dren who live in home of a rel ative and have no other means of support? Public Assistance may be availa ble to provide the basic neces sities for the children and a par ent or relative caretaker if need ed. The children can receive pub lic assistance while living in the home of a relative if they are otherwise eligible and if there is no close relative who is capable of providing for them. The place of residence in this instance, is not part of the eligibility criter ia. 2. If an absent father refuses to pay child support and the chil dren are in need can anything be done by the Department of Fam ily and Children Services? The children may be eligible for Public Assistance. If they meet all eligibility requirements and are found to be in need such assistance will be granted. How ever, the appropriate law enfor cement agency must be notified of the fact that the father is not meeting his support obligations to his children. In addition, full co operation in efforts to obtain child support from the father would be necessary. 3. Are there any disability bene fits for people who are disabled but not bedfast? Neither Social Security disability payments nor the Department of Family and Children Services' Aid to the per manently and totally disabled program requires that the reci pient be bedfast? If the disabled person has work- ed for some time under Social Se curity he might be eligible for benefits from this source. If how ever that person is in urgent need and otherwise eligible the Department of Family and Child ren Services may be able to help until eligibility for Social Secur ity is determined.
