QUESTIONS AND
ANSWERS ON
Social Security
Q. I have two social security ac
count numbers; which one should
I use?
A. If you have worked under
both numbers, see your social se
curity district office at 704 Jane
Street in Waycross so that the
earnings record set up under each
number can be combined into a
single record. If you do use more
than one number, all your earn
ings would not be credited to one
account and you or your family
might lose some rights to bene
fits.
Q. My bank has asked for my
social security number. Why must
I have a number if I don't work?
A. A social security number is
also needed by persons who have
income which is reported to the
Internal Revenue Service. It is
used by Internal Revenue as a
taxpayer identification number.
Q. I got a social security card
years ago but have misplaced it.
I know the number by heart and
heve been reciting it from me
mory to past employers. My pre
sent employer insists on seeing
the card. What shall I do?
A. Request a duplicate card
from your social security office.
The Social Security Administra
tion urges all employers to copy
the name and social security num
ber of each employee from the
card to prevent any possible er
ror that might occur when peo
ple give the wrong number from
memory.
Q. I have been living at the
same address since I got my so
cial security card ten years ago.
I will be moving next month. How
do I go about changing my ad
dress with social security?

Children's
Denta!
Health
My son was fold by his foot
ball coach that he will have to
wear a special kind of mouth
guard. Why does he need a mouth
guard when his football helmet
already has a bar across the low
er part to protect the mouth and
face? Also, the coach said this
was a rule. Is this true?
A regulation requiring all high
school and most college football
players to wear mouth protectors
has been in effect since 1962. This
regulation was adopted by the
National Alliance Football Rules
Committee, composed of athletic
directors from all the nation’s
high schools and some junior and
senior colleges.
It was found that the bar on the
helmet did not prevent all in
juries to the jaw and teeth. Many
players, despite this protection,
had teeth chipped, broken or
otherwise injured and received
other facial or jaw injuries.
Before the requirement for
mouth protectors went into ef
fect, about 50 per cent of all foot
ball injuries were to the face and
mouth. Since the regulation was
adopted, such injuries have been
almost eliminated when the
guards are worn faithfully.
Mouth guards are made in three
ways, although the committee re
commended in the wording of the
rule two preferable types. One is
made by the dentist from a cast
of the player’s teeth. A second is
made by directly impressing the
mouth guard to the player’s teeth
for an impression. The third, a
stock type, is similar to the rub
ber guard worn by boxers.
Many high schools work directly
with the local dental society in
providing mouth protectors un
der supervision of a dentist. Ser
vice clubs and other agencies
have also cooperated with socia
ties, and protectors have been
provided on a public service ba
sis.
While we are on the subject of
protection from injury to the face
and jaw, we might mention an
other valuable safeguard for the
whole family: seat belts in auto
mobiles. Since seat belts act to
restrain the body in sudden im
pact, they are especially help
ful in preventing the head and
face from hitting the windshield
or dashboard of the car.
It is estimated that more than
72 per cent of all auto injuries
are to the head and face, and,
of course, severe brain damage,
loss of eyesight and other ser
ious head injuries are involved.
Make sure that every member
of the family, from the youngest
to the oldest, is protected in the
family car at all times. And do
not forget that your son needs
nrotection on the football field as
well.
The state’s gum naval stores’
oroduction in 1963 amounted
to approximately 80% of the
nation’s total supply of gum,
rosin, and turpentine.
A dollar’s worth of standing
timber contributes $10.90 to
Georgia’s economy through its
manufacture, transportation
and use.
Georgia leads the nation in
production and freezing of
Southern peas in the greenshell
stage, with approximately 60,-
000 acres grown each year.
Total sales from the meat
packing industry in Georgia
are estimated at $22 million
In 1963, income from eggs
in Georgia was over $lO5 mil

Communist Party in U. S. Planned
Johnson's Vote Bill 9 Years Ago
By Henry J. Taylor
In Savannah Morning News
It’s astounding, but true, that
the Communist Party, U. S. A.,
actually planned the Johnson Ad
ministration’s Voting-Rights Act
of 1965.
This is not to argue the merits
and demerits of this bill. That’s
a different topic. But the veil
should be lifted on a fact of his
tory, certainly unknown to our
public and probably unknown even
to most Congressmen and Sena
tors who will vote “yea.”
They will be voting on a 1956
project designed in Moscow.
Soviet attention to our legisla
tion has always been much more
constant and effective than we
suppose. The pen of Lee Press
man, who later confessed to hav
ing been a Communist, trails all
through our initial agricultural act
and the labor legislation sponsor
ed by the original Congress of In
dustrial Organizations, of which
Pressman was an official.
Well, the Red shadows still
breathe and glow.
Foreign Minister Andrei Gro
myko is the Kremlin’s top spe
cialist on American affairs. He
knows our country like Mickey
Mantle knows the Yankee Stad
ium. Nobody in the Soviet hier
archy even approaches his stay
ing power, for he has survived
every purge on his knowledge of
the United States.
I encountered Gromyko’s ex
pertness again and again during
Geneva conferences. In fact, I
come to know this Red leader
when his concen'rat on on our
country began a full 21 years ago.
This was during the 1944 Dum
barton Oaks Conference called to
design the United Nations.
He’s acquainted with a surpris
ing quantity of American politi
cal, trade-union and industrial
leaders on an after-hours conver
sational basis. Some like Mr.
Bernard Baruch, who he respects,
always have had his number, but
nothing chills this already cold
man in his search for leverages
against our internal stability and
especially our legislation.
Gromyko’s bland, sphinx-like
personality reminds you of a ma
gician who comes on stage with
out tables or props — just a hand
kerchief hidden in his hand. Then
for 20 minutes he pulls unexpect
ed things out of it.
For example, in an airplane
flying the Atlantic Gromyko once
suddenly recited to me the
foreign-born percentages in our
chief trade unions and in our 12
largest cities, and then mention
ed in passing that more Czechs
live in Chicago than in any city
except Prague.
Or listen to Gromyko on another
occasion. “Mr. Taylor,” he said,
“what you Americans call ‘law’
is really a form of politics.” He
didn’t just say that. He thinks
that. Such are the notes he plays
when be calls the tune for Krem
lin policy inside our country.
This means Gromyko calls the
tune for the Communist Party,
U. S A. In December, 1955, that
”>arty began a program which it
named the “Lincoln Project.” Its
target date for fulfillment should
nterest us today — 1965.
At its inception in 1956 the plan
was published in Philadelphia by
the respected American Flag
Committee and read:
“To implement the Lincoln
Project, the Communist Party’s
Central Committee will begin to
dispatch agents to 11 Southern
states next month (January, 1957)
to work with local party leaders
in surveying 20 counties, any one
of which might be ideally suited
ar a target for disorder early in
1965.
This survey will continue
through 1957, the Central Com
mittee making the choice of 20
counties . . . with the final se
’ection to be made on the estimat
ed most favorable conditions pre
vailing in 1965.
‘‘The legislation which the
oarty will seek from Congress in
1965 has already been prepared
by its legal staff. It provides for
elimination of all educational re
quirements, including minimum
'iteracy tests, as qualifications for
voting in Federal, state and local
elections; voids residence with
respect to counties, municipalities
and other political subdivisions
within a state, and establishes a
-ystem of direct Federal supervi
sion and control of the local,
county, state and Federal elec-j
hive process.”
Evidently the House and Sen-I
ate will pass the Voting-Rights)
\ct of 1965 after debate and a
mendment. To repeat, its merits i
and demerits are another mat
ter. Nevertheless, penetrat’ng —
and exposing — the Soviet’s se
cret interest in any legislation is)
important to our lawmakers and,
our public alike. The “Lincoln
Project” and the example of this;
bill is a revelation of the ghost
ly Reds’ eternal presence.
HOSPITAL CAREERS
DESCRIBED IN
NEW BOOKLET
“Health Careers in Georgia”
is the title of a newly publish
ed booklet which describes the
opportunities for numerous
careers in the health and hos
pital fields open to young
people in Georgia. Published
by the State Department of
Education, the booklet was
prepared through a coopera
tive project of the Georgia
Joint Council on Paramedical
Education and Allied Medical
Careers Clubs of Georgia, Inc.
“The rapid development of
the medical sciences in the
past two decades has also
brought advancements in pro
fessions that are allied with
medicine in the care of pa
tients,” states the Georgia Hos
pital Association, an agency
member of both groups spon
soring the new publication. “It
is hoped that this newly pub
lished information will stimu
late interest and provide guid
ance to young people for the
many rewarding careers that
hospitals have to offer,” the
Association continued.
Each professional field is
described, including the ap
proved schools in Georgia that
offer training programs. Medi
cal technology, physical thera
py, nursing, occupational ther
apy, x-ray technology, medi
cal records library science, hos
pital dietetics, hospital admin
istration, dentistry and phar
macy are among the profes
sions that are included, all of
which are in acute short sup
ply in Georgia. These fields are
open and waiting for young
people to take advantage of
them, the Hospital Associa
tion said. Copies of “Health
Careers in Georgia” may be
obtained by writing: Georgia
Hospital Association, 1720
Peachtree Road. N. W„ (Room
423), Atlanta, Georgia 30309.
Since most of the paramedi
cal professions are at the col
lege degree level, the Associa
tion calls attention to Geor
gia’s new program of para
medical scholarships, expected
to be approved by the 1965
General Assembly. The Asso
ciation advises young people -
those who are planning to en
ter college this fall or those
who have already begun col
lege courses — to be alert to
f”rther information following
final actions of the General
Assembly in March concerning
this program.
4 H Scholarship
Awards Program
Will Be Offered
Plans by the Georgia Power
Company for an annual 4-H Scho
larship and awards program to
encourage interest in the new and
challenging field of electronics
were announced this week by
John J. McDonough, board chair
man.
County winners will compete at
a district level. Winner in each
of the state’s six Cooperative Ex
tension Service districts will re
ceive an expense-paid trip to the
4-H state Congress in Atlanta. The
six district winners will compete
for a year’s tuition at any col
lege in the University System of
Georgia. One of the six winners
will receive an expense-paid trip
to the National 4-H Congress, and
all will receive 4-H jackets.
Olin Ginn, manager of the pow
er company’s rural division,
which is sponsoring the competi
tion, reported that with the in
creasing number of 4-H’ers liv
ing in urban and semi-urban
areas, the company several
months ago began plans for an
awards competition with appeal
for young people on the farms
and in the towns.
“We chose electronics,” he said,
“because it is one of the most
challenging fields facing our
young people today. Not only
does it play a role in the inter
com systems on farms and on the
farmers’ ability to obtain vital
weather information, it also
makes possible communication a
cross continents, oceans and in
outer space. Industrial electro
nics are becoming increasingly
necessary to our industrial and
agricultural automation.”
Suggested projects in which
4-H’ers may compete include
building a crystal radio, studying
electronic vacuum tubes, working
with amplifiers, photoelectric cells
and post lanterns operated by
photo cells, and building inter
com systems for home or farm.
Further information on the pro
gram, open to junior and senior
4-H members, can be obtained
from county agents.

Questions and Answers
on the Bible
BY MRS. GLADYS B. JOHNSON
Readers are invited to submit questions they would like dis
cussed to Mrs. Gladys B. Johnson, Blackshear, Ga.
Was the Wine which Jesus made
at the Wedding Feast an intoxi
cating drink?
Let us consider wine in Bible
terms. In the Old Testament
there are many Hebrew words
used to describe the various kinds
of wine made from the fruit of
the vine and their effect on the
individual.
In the case of one word alone
which is used 138 times, at least
83 of them means fermented
grape juice and was certainly in
toxicating to the user.
We have the record of Noah
who planted a vineyard, drank
of the wine and was drunken.
Genesis 9:21. The intoxicating
powers of this kind of wine was
confirmed by the rabbis for they
diluted it with water before using
it in the celebration of the Pass
over Feast. It was too strong to
be used for religious purposes.
In Old Testament times wine
was regarded as a necessity of
life — even the simplest mea’
was not complete without it. It
was used by all classes and ages
and was drunk undiluted. Wine
mixed with water was thought to
be unfit for use.
However, in later times the in
fluence of the Greeks was so
great that wine unmixed with
water had become distasteful.
When we reach the period in
which Christ lived, we find the
mixture was usually one-third to
one-fourth of juice — the remain
der being water.
The wine used at the Last Sup
per was very probably then a
sweet, red, fermented wine; high
ly diluted.
However, both fermented and
unfermented wine was known to
the Jews. The unfermented juice
of the grape while it is still in the
cluster, is called wine as we see
by Isaiah 65:8. “Thus saith the
Lord, As the new wine is found
in the cluster, and one saith
Destroy it not; for a blessing is
in it; so will I do for my servants’
sakes, that I may not destroy
them all.”
Regardless of the fact that the
use of wine was so prevalent
Scripture gives us this warning,
“Look not thou upon the wine
when it is red, when it giveth his
colour in the cup, when it moveth
itself aright. At the last it biteth
like a serpent and stingeth like

an adder.” Proverbs 23:31,32.
Jesus in giving warnings con
cerning His return to earth made
this statement, “Keep a watch on
yourselves; do not let your minds
be dulled by dissipation and
drunkenness and worldly cares so
that the great Day closes upon
you suddenly like a trap. For that
day will come on all men, wherev
er they are, the whole world
over.” Luke 21:34,35.
So, although Jesus accustomed
himself to the practices and cus
toms of the day and when his
host faced embarrassment be
cause the wine was exhausted,
took water and changed it into
wine (John 2), I am confident that
our Lord who was Himself sin
less, would never have created
anything which would cause one
of His own creatures to sin.
It is man who takes that which
is good and makes it into that
which is evil.
