Rep. Spillers Reports On
Reappertionment Status
BY OTIS SPILLERS
(Rep. Post 2 Newton Co.)
History was made the past
week when the Georgia House
of Representatives reapport
ioned Itself. A considerable
amount of power was shifted from
the rural areas to the urban
areas. However, there still re
mains enough voting power In
the rural areas to accomplish
and protect their needs.
Prior to last week each county
had a representative. This is
not true now. Districts have been
established and these elections
will now be controlled by the
State instead of the county. We
now have single county districts,
two county districts, three county
districts, four county districts
in extending deepest sympathy to
them and their family in their
sorrow.
as well as counties divided into
districts of Its own. This was
necessary to elect Re
presentatives o n a population
basis.
One of the requirements of
the new re apportionment plan is
that a district cannot have more
than four representatives. This
is the reason for having to divide
some counties into districts.
Newton County had a population
of 20,999 according to the 1960
census. Based on a205-membcr
house we had the right population
to entitle us to one Represent
ative. In most of the plans for
reapportionment we were com
bined with other counties to form
frict. It seemed that a
people In Newton County wanted
to remain In a district of Its
own even if we didn't have but
one representative. This is what
the Representatives of Newton
County worked for and was
successful in getting arranged.
We are now faced with an
election and according to reports
we will have the primary April
7, 1965. This election will decide
who the Representative will be
for next year. There will be
another election next year to
determine the Representative for
the next term. lam paying

as soon as the party accepts.
This will probably be within a
couple of days.
One of the i*»t things that
could happen in the House of
Representatives Is better re
lationship between rural and
urban areas. It is possible that
the new arrangement will bring
this about. I certainly hope so
because so much more can be
accomplished by working to
gether.

IN MEMORUM
Mr. T. C. Castleberry left
this life for a better home with
his Heavenly Father on Febru
ary 16, 1965, as a result of an
accident. It was a great shock
to all his friends and family.
He was a most faithful member
of the First Methodist Church
since joining in 1919. He was
a member of the Men’s Bible
Class and was a steward for
18 years. He was always will
ing to help out In any way that
he could. He was also a faith
ful member of the Masons for
48 years.
He will be missed by all that
knew him, but we are grateful
for the time he was spared to
be with us. May the Heavely
Father help and comfort his wife
and family and may his life re
mind us to hold our small candle
light that we might make the world
a better place to live. May His
peace bring comfort to his wife
and sons and grandchildren and
his brothers and sisters.
The prayer of a friend
LASTING IMPRESSION
While the production of South
ern Pine lumber was meager dur
ing the 17th and 18th centuries,
the species made a lasting Im
pression on the American land
scape in those days.
It was then that the famous
colonial homes were built—hom
es like Carter’s Grove Manor,
near Williamsburg, Virginia. Al
though built more than two cen
turies ago, it is still in excellent
condition today and regarded by
many modern architects as one
of the nation’s finest homes.
Southern Pine paneling in the
great reception hall never re
ceived any finish but was sim
ply allowed to mellow with age.
