Georgia's Narrow Bridges To
Get Reflective Paint Job
Georgia is lighting up its nar- I
row bridges so drivers won’t
have so much difficulty in see
ing them at night. The lighting
is in the form of a newly de
veloped reflective paint which
makes the bridge stand out like
a neon sign from the headlights
of an automobile.
Highway Chairman Jim L.
Gillis says that Georgia is one
of the first states to use this
paint on a wide scale. He says
there are 600 sub-standard
bridges in Georgia, bridges
less than 24 feet wide, and the
State Highway Department
plans to paint all of these brid
ges within the next year. Chair
man Gillis said the nominal
cost involved in painting these
bridges will be more than
justified by the reduction of
accidents and fatalities which
will result.
The paint is composed of
small beads which reflect back
to the driver from his head
lights. The reflection is esti
mated to be about 100 times
Old Lands And New People
(Editor’s Note: Dr. Ingram,
president emeritus of West
Georgia College, Carrollton, is
on a 3 1/2 month journey
around the world. This is one
of a series of reports he will
make concerning his journey
of understanding and observa
tion.)
RANGOON. BURMA —This
is an interesting land. (It is too
far from Carrollton.) England
gave these people their inde
pendence in 1948. During the
preceding long period of con
trol the people of Burma had
no experience in government.
The British had used the Indian
civil servants in the petty po
sitions. Hence the Burmese
knew little English and they
had no experience and knowl
edge of running their own af
fairs.
This country suffered much
from World War 11. The people
experienced three phases of the
war comparable to Sherman’s
March through Georgia. The
British retreated through the
country burning much of it in
order to keep Japan from liv
ing off the country. The sec
ond phase was the control by
Japan for three years. The peo
ple suffered much from them.
And the last phase was the
driving out of the Japanese by
the English.
While their property was de
stroyed, the Burmese had
enough to eat. The country is
productive. No one seems to
be hungry. There is much mal
nutrition due to the way they
prepare or cook the rice. They
are learning through the help
of nutritionists from other
lands.
Burma borders Red China.
The two countries have just
signed a treaty. All seem pleas
ed. This does not mean Red
China, with its communism, is
influencing Burma. As back
ward as these people are, they
do not want the Red China
pattern. The Burmese are very
sophisticated about running
their own affairs. They cannot
be bought with aid.
There are many many na
tions and organizations with
missions here such as Russia,
United Nations, United States,
Germany and private projects
as the Ford Foundation.

Our government has a small
■ personnel mission here. We had
: a large one in 1951 but the
The program contains such
In 1957 Burma requested a
loan of the U. S. of 25 million
dollars. Our country finally
agreed, provided a small staff
came along as consultants. To
this the Burma government
agreed.
The program contains such
projects as:
1. $300,000 for land irrigation
and reclaiming two million
acres of brush land. This gave
preservation of water, but, even
better, it eliminated thousands
of hostile insurgents refugees
and others hostile to the gov
ernment. These lived in the
brush and carried on guerilla
war.
2. This country exports rice,
jute and elephants. Money was
needed to improve rice culture
and substitute machinery for
elephants for getting out teak
wood.
3. Money for restoring barges
and boats for river hauling and
transportation. Most of the
ships and barges were destroy
ed by the war.
4. Money for improving com
munication such as the tele-
so by 12 o’clock (noon) Decem

brighter than ordinary white
paint. Highway Engineers say
that it is not necessary to paint
the entire bridge with this re
flective liquid, only portions of
the posts and top rail which
will give the driver a complete
outline of the bridge so he can
determine the width and length
from a safe distance before he
approaches the bridge.
How far away can the driver
see the bridge at night?
Tests show that the outline
of the bridge can be seen from
a half mile, which allows the
driver adequate warning that
he is approaching a bridge, and
as he comes closer the bridge
begins to take shape.
Last year there were 15 fa
tal accidents in Georgia in
which motor vehicles collided
directly with bridges. The
number of fatal accidents in
which a motor vehicle collided
with another on a bridge is not
known since the Department of
Public Safety does not have a
breakdown in this form. In ad-
phone.
5. Lighting equipment for air
fields.
6. Drilling wells for water,
sanitation and similar projects.
7. Steel for building health
clinics.
8. Research for rice culture.
9. Building dormitories for
six thousand students for a
coed college which we would
call junior college education in
our country.
• ♦ • •
Russia is building here a
large hotel and a hospital. But
these people are not being
fooled. There are some Bur
mese Communists, but the
name to them does not mean
the same as it does to us. Bur
mese are not too keen for our
idealogy, but they believe and
know the people of the U. S.
have material things which
they want.
The Ford Foundation is do
ing a marvelous work here. The
Burmese government by the
help of the Ford Foundation
has just completed a contract
with the University of Florida
for a period of six years. Ex
perts will work in the fields of
agriculture and allied activi
ties.
The small I.C.A. program re
ferred to above makes us proud
of the U. S. We are helping
here to win the cold war.
There is much to the story
of Burma. Its people are proud.
Not a single beggar has ap
proached me here.
