Sam Nunn Lashes At Senatorial Opponent ST. MARY’S (PRN) - U.S. Senate candidate Sam Nunn, mounting his strongest attack of the campaign, has lashed out at Fletcher Thompson, accusing his Republican opponent of “trying to pull off a horrendous hoax.” “My opponent has already spent $224,000 of taxpayers’ money on his campaign,” Nunn said in a speech here. “He is using the mails - tax free mails at that -for pure propaganda purposes.” Nunn, 34, the farmer-lawyer from Perry, recently received two important endorsements. Several days ago Nunn’s candidacy was boosted by the NMorsement of State House of Representatives Speaker George L. Smith. A few days later, his candidacy was further bolstered by the endorsement of former governer Ernest Vandiver. Nunn wasted no time in carrying the fight to Thompson as he returned his senatorial campaign to middle and south Georgia. “My opponent, Fletcher Thompson, has been mailing political news releases at taxpayers expense to 800,000 voters,” Nunn explained. “The majority of these voters and taxpayers don’t even live in his district. I publicly asked Mr. Thompson to repay the treasury the tax dollars that had been spent publicly. He responded by writing a check to the post office for four dollars. “That is the most one-sided transaction with the taxpayers since the Yazoo land fraud. He has spent more than a quarter of a million tax dollars for campaign purpose and he pays back four dollars. In addition he says he is going right ahead between now and the election and spend another $64,000 sending out his Page 5 • The Brantley Enterprise, Nahunta, Georgia, October 19, 1972 PASTOR'S PEN Continued from last week! THE WRETCHED STATE OF MAN: Man is a creature of choice: Have you ever given thought to the number of times each day that man is faced with a decision ? Now you do not have to be president nor secre tary of state or some other high official to be faced with daily decisions. Dad is faced with decisions at the office. But no less important are the decisions that mother must make at home. Then there is Johnny and Mary at school who also must make many important decisions. Truly, we are creatures of choice, and the one decision above all others is what shall we do with our eternal souls, ? We are not only creatures of decisions for the moment, but the decisions we make now are of eternal value and will affect us as long as God shall live. These are things that cause man to cry out with the Apostle Paul, ” O wretched man that I am”. This wretched state of man comes about because he is not in proper relationship with God. It was the ways of sin and carnality that caused Paul to cry out as he did. It is for the same rea son that man cries out today. However, he must come to the place that he knows he is without God and is helpless to do anything for himself, and then cast all his fears upon the Lord Jesus Christ and cries for forgiveness of all of his sins. Now hear me today and do not ever forget it. You will not be justified in the sight of God just because you were brought up in a religious home that makes the difference if this re ligion gets down in your heart and makes you live a life that would glorify God. Paul came from a Hebrew family, and he said of himself, ” I am a seed of Abraham. Not only so but he also said ” I was taught at the feet of Gamaliel: I have been educated ” Paul had all these requirements but still he cried, ” o wretched man that I am,” ” who shall deliver me from this body of sin, ? Now let us stay with Paul just a little longer and look at him again in another frame of mind,... Paul ask a question in Romans 8;35,. who shall separate us from the love of God,. Then he answers his own question just a few verses down in this same chapter, ” For I am persuaded that neither death nor life nor angels, nor principalities nor powers, nor things present, not things to come shall be able to separate us from the love of Christ.” Now let me offer you this peace that comes through Christ our Lord. Why would you continue in your wretchedness when God has provided a plan for your deliverance,. You need no longer cry, ” O wretched man that lam ” why not repent of your sins and accept Christ as your Lord today, he is coming soon. WE CAN SAVE YOU MONEY ON ALL YOUR BUILDING MATERIALS!

BOX 272 — FOLKSTON, GEORGIA 31537 SAM NUNN newsletter. “I think that tells the people of Georgia a lot about Fletcher Thompson and his attitude toward serving in Congress.. .and about his respect for the people he represents. To him, serving in the Congress, is a grandstand affair. Fletcher Thompson has spent much time in Congress hunting headlines and trying to make news - more than trying to make laws. He has written millions of newsletters, but he hasn’t written one piece of legislation that has been enacted into law. “I believe the people of Georgia, realizing that Mr. Thompson is a ‘do nothing congressman,’ had rather have a lawmaker in the Senate than a letter writer.” Os the endorsement by George L. Smith, Nunn said; “I deeply appreciate, of course, the endorsement of the distinguished Speaker of Rev. P. S. Collins, Pastor Nahunta Church of God the House George L. Smith. Certainly Speaker Smith is in a position to judge a member’s legislative merits, and if I can pass his severe scrutiny, then I consider such an endorsement as the highest stamp of approval of my abilities as a legislator and representative of the people. “In my view an effective legislator must seek rational legislative solutions to National and state problems, rather than seek publicly by wild outbursts of passion without offering any constructive alternative. “Further, an effective legislator must enjoy the respect and confidence of his colleagues, even if they do not always agree with his views. Persuasion and debate in this atmosphere of confidence are keystones of successful representation. It is not enough to just throw a bill in the hopper and hope it will float to the top.” Former Governor Vandiver endorsed Representative Nunn at a Sam Nunn rally in the former governor’s hometown of Lavonia. In his remarks, Vandiver said, “Sam Nunn is a man who has great potential. I think at age 34 he can represent Georgia extremely well. Most of us are Democrats if we’ve got a Democrat we can vote for. I think Sam is a Democrat we can really vote for. He is in tune with the feelings of the people of this state; he is a man who understands the problems of the pie of this state. No matter what his opponents say Sam is a young man with his feet on the ground with a conservative philosophy. “1 can say, without equivocation, that on November 7 I will cast my vote for Sam Nunn for the U.S. Senate.”
