DONALSONVILLE (GA.) NEWS THURSDAY, DECEMBER 5, 1963

By Leon Barnes
Next Tuesday, December 10
is the date cotton growers
will decide whether or not
they wish to be under a mar
keting quota program in
1964. If as many as two
thirds of those voting in the
referendum vote for quotas,
then we’ll continue with the
cotton program on the same
basis it has been on for the
last ten or twelve years.
Quotas would apply to all
cotton growers and penalties
would be applicable on any
acreage in excess of the acre
age allotment. Price support
would be between 65 and 90
percent of parity.
On the other hand, should
more than one-third of the
voters vote against quotas,
there would be no quotas
and no penalties for excess
production. Price support
would be set at 50 percent of
parity and would be available
to any producer who does not
exceed his 1964 acreage allot
ment.
We have tried to point out
in this space on several oc
casions that all rigidly con
trolled farm programs such
as the cotton and peanut pro
grams, are rigidly controlled
because the growers, them
selves, have asked for such
control. Os course, we have

also expressed our view that
when a farmer has a chance
to say “yes, I want rigid
controls” or “no, I do not
want rigid controls” he should
do so.
In recent years, special ef
forts have been made to se
cure higher voter participa
tion in crop referenda and
last year we reached an all
time high in Seminole Coun
ty with 63 percent of our
cotton growers voting on the
1963 program. We feel like
63 percent is a good turn out
but it could have been better
and we hope to see a better
turn out next Tuesday.

Miss King, Mr. Brunson have a party
Miss Linda King and Joey
Brunson were honored on Fri
day night at a dance at the
veteran cluib house on the
occasion of their sixteenth
birthday by their parents,
Mr. and Mrs. Woodie King
and Mr. and Mrs. Joe Brun
son.
The large club room was
transformed into a place of
loveliness. Hanging from the
ceiling were myriad clusters
of long vari-colored balloons
with streamers of green and
gold crepe paper forming a
canopy over the entire ceiling.
Suspended at the center back
above the tea table were
large green and gold glittered
letters, “’Happy Birthday”.
Against the wall at the back
\yas a tremendous shock of
corn encircled with bales of
hay surmounted with large
pumpkins and in the center
a cornucopia of real nuts and
fruits and vegetables. In the
corners and against the wall
at intervals were real river
bottom trees with brilliantly
colored leaves and moss.
Survivors include three
daughters, Mrs. Mason Riley
of Blakely, Mrs. Edd Tem
ples of Damascus and Mrs.
Ruth Alday, also of Damas
cus. A large number of grand
children also survive Mrs.
Golden.
Pallbearers were Omer
Taylor, “Red” Riley, Thomas
Golden, Ralph Taylor, Frank
Golden and Lamar Golden.
Mrs. Golden had lived in
this community for the past
15 years. She was the daugh
ter of the late George Rich
ardson and Mary Taylor Rich
ardson.
Southern smilax festooned
walls just below the ceiling.
The tea table was covered
with a green and gold cloth.
At one end stood a handsome
silver punch bowl from which
Mrs. Wayne King, Mrs. Ray
mond Tedder, Mrs. Charles
Bridges and Mrs. Joe Brun
son served delicious punch.
At the other end was a three
branched silver candelabra
with twisted green candies.
The three tiered cake, iced
in orange was embossed with
roses of a deeper orange and
green leaves. On the top
glittered the numerals “16”.
Silver trays held delicious
party dainties. The cake was
cut and served by Mrs. Wood
ie King.
The gift tables placed on
each side at the back were
covered with white floor
length cloths which were
spattered with large colorful
real fall leaves.
Miss Ruth Bridges kept the
guest register for Miss King;
Mr. Brunson’s was kept by
Miss Janet McLeod.
Miss King was lovely in a
dress of orange chiffon with
a full skirt and a diagonally
draped! bodice whose drapery
extended over one shoulder.
Around two hundred guests
from Donalsonville, Colquitt,
Jakin, Iron City, Blakely and
Bainbridge and Blountstown,
Fla., attended.
