Which Industry Now Betters
The Living of 1 Out 0f 2
Gaorgia Families?
So far, whenever our na
tion’s economy has needed
expansion, a new industry
has sprung up to help the
country go ahead.
The automobile industry,
employing millions, was fol=
lowed closely by the develop
ment of radio and radio
broadcasting to make more
millions of jobs. Then came
the airplane industry, air
conditioning, plastics, tele
vision, frozen foods, to
change our lives some more.
The trading stamp industry,
while not new, belongs to
this expansion group and has
been one of the fastest grow
ing of all. Today it directly
benefits the living of the more
than 1 out of 2 Georgia fami
lies who save trading stamps.
Obviously, an industry af
fecting such a large propor=
tion of Georgia’s population
must bring far-reaching ben
efits for Georgia’s economy.
And it does. In 1957 the
trading stamp industry

because of such an agreement,
the West was saved only by the
armed might of the United
States. Maintenance of high po
tential striking power, for de-‘
sense, other countries can be
forced into economic trouble;
and here he cited the U, S.
60 pet. of the budget cost of
|arms. Social aspects of life must
be included if we are to have
coexistence, which is difficult
|to attain with extant distrust.
| As to the proposed disengage
|ment policy creating a buffer
{zone between powers, Mr, Ram
'ag‘e wondered if it might give
| Germany an opportunity to tip
|industry to the military, stat
{ing that Britain had plenty of
| reason to believe that such mili
|tary might could be used a
gainst them,
'| In relation to British Foreign
| Policy, he assured his hearers
‘| that Anglo-American co-oper
ation was its <o

bought $21,786,000 worth of
products from Georgia’s
manufacturers. In one way
or another, it provided em
ployment for 1,969 Georgia
people in many different in
dustries.
The people in the trading
stamp industry, its merchan
dise and redemption stores,
its warehouses and transpor
tation and all the activity that
goes on within it are helping
to develop Georgia.
Thus it seems plain that
the trading stamp industry
along with the 498,100 Geor
gia women it serves has be
come, like other expansion
industries, a living vital part
of our State’s economy.

So, most probably it is no
coincidence that February 22nd,
Washington’s birthday, marks
the. beginning of the week in
which the nation pays fribute
to the Future Farmers of Amer
ica. With the future progress of
the nation at heart this great
leader recognized the vital part
agriculture would play in its
development.
F. F. A. is the largest agricul
tural organization in the world.
Made up of rural youth “our
Sons of the Soil”, in whom will
be vested the responsibility of
feeding the nation, it holds a
key role in America’s economy,
for agriculture is truly “the
backbone of the nation”. Their
motto, “Learning to Do, Doing
to Learn, Earning to Live and
Living to Serve” is within it
self a guide to a happy, useful,
successful life, whether it is
spent in nature’s own backyard,
or in the feverish pace of the
city. We take this opportunity
of paying tribute to our own
Newton County F. F. A. Club,
and their advisors H. M. Pul
liam and R. D. Smith whose
splendid records have received
recognition in the state and na
tion. The club president, Billy
McCart, as first place winner
in the State Pasture Develop=
ment contest represented Geor- |
gia in Kansas City, Mo. in 1956;
and with 122 bushels of corn
per acre took top honors in
Corn Production. Grier Holi
field is making a fine record in
his F. F. A. Swine Project; as
are many other of the 56 mem
bers in Forestry, Beef Cattle,
Dairy Cattle, Soil Improve
ment Wild Life Conservation,
and Vegetable Projects. We fol
low their progress with interest
and tender a heartfelt “Thank
You” to Advisors Pulliam
and Smith and other adult lead
ers who are helping build a
better America through these
Future Farmers of our land.
One particular note of warn
ing in Washington’s Farewell
address seems to have been
sounded for the present time—
“Of all the dispositions and
habits which lead to political
prosperity, religion and morali
ty are indispensable supports.
In vain would that man claim
the tribute of patriotism who
should labor to subvert these
great pillars of human happi
ness, these firmest props of the
duties of men and citizens” . . .
Is it true, that in this nation
he helped build, political in
tegrity is shrouded in a “Twi
light of Honor” as described in
a Reader’s Digest article a few
years ago?? Is a high political
office merely a vantage point
from which he who fills it may
use it for the benefit of himself
and his friends—or those who
voted for him?? Is it naive to
even ask such questions?? This
may be true to some extent;
but we still believe there are
‘men whose integrity cannot be
bought; who believe with Wash~
ington that “religion and mo-~
rality are jndispensable supports
to political prosperity”. We need
such men for the security of
our nation—but, they cannot
serve unless we as voters put
them in office. |
All of which pinpoints a re- |
flection of the times by a re
cent column of Joy Reese Shaw,
Miami Herald Staff writer, who
was serving on a panel discus
sion of “Ethics Morality and
Law: a Contemporary Contri
bution”. She was the only wo
man on the panel, and laid her
black faille coat across the back
of a chair on the front row be
fore joining the others on the
platform. They hung all of Mi=-
ami's dirty linen on the line—
(well, maybe they didn’t have |
that long a lone) — and dis~ |
cussed ways and means of get- i
ting it tide-clean, since theyi
were on the ocean front. They'
orated long and loud on hon-|
esty, crime prevention, clean-§
ing up the shows, literature and |
‘gambling. “Tt's a time for re- |
evaluation-—for a tightening up i
on personal honesty and prin-|
ciples” one of the panelists con
cluded. After warm applause,
and a glow of self-righteous- |
‘ness in having helped solve the |
problems of the world, Miss |
Shaw stepped down from the |
platform to go. Someone had
stolen her coat.
The Press Institute promises
to be chock full of interesting
people and subjects in Athens
this weekend; so we're looking
forward to a delightful inter
lude of Fourth Estate Facts, Fun
and Fellowshin before next
