By Gas Light Co.
A Georgia Power Company
attorney, William H. Schroder,
charged the Atlanta Gas Light
Company Tuesday with making
special payments on behalf of
selected apartment builders In
order to obtain additional busi
ness.
Mr. Schroder made the
charges before a hearing of the
Georgia Public Service Com
mission. The commission Is in
vestigating the rates and pro
motional practices of the Geor
gia Power Company, the At
lanta Gas Light Company and
the Gas Light Company of
Columbus.
The power company attorney
charged the Atlanta gas firm
with offering special piping al
lowances to Its apartment cus
tomers in Atlanta only and not

Mr. Schroder pointed out that

rates and promotional practices
are on file with and approved
by the Georgia Public Service
Commission.
Earlier, in a cross-examina

NEW YORK — The federal
gasoline tax, which began as a
penny-a-gallon temporary
measure during the Depression,
Is now 35 years old. Since 1932
it has brought In about $33
billion.
Oil Facts notes that Presi

out the highway program ‘‘ls
not costing the general fund of
the U.S. Treasury a single cent”
because owners and operators
of motor vehicles are bearing

I SEE GOD
DEAR MISS ELY:
It is refreshing to read the thoughts of one who expresses her
awareness of the presence of God revealed in all of life’s
situations and experiences In a day when so many seem to de
light In questioning the reality of God, or announcing his death,
if Is gratifying to know that others share the feeling that He
Is very much alive and In the midst of the world He created.
So, I propose an additional several lines four your poem:
God reveals Himself to me
But when all’s said and done
His greatest revelation comes
Through Jesus Christ His Son.
For grass and flowers will wither
And earth will pass away
But Christ as God’s begotten Son
Will live and reign for aye.
So, rise, my soul, and know your God
Revealed In many ways;
But trust His Son, the Perfect One
And serve Him all your days.

MADDOX TELLS YOUTH TO
REJECT GODLESS THEORY
(GPS) Addressing the 4th annual Governor’s Honor Pro
gram In Macon, Gov. Lester G. Maddox had this message
for Georgia’s young people:
“There are those who will tell you that God is dead and that
materialism Is more important than spiritualism. They will tell
you that, In order to succeed, you must depend upon science
to fulfill your spiritual needs, dollars to fulfill your material
needs, and Washington to fulfill your governmental needs.
“I would hasten to remind you that this Is the philosophy of
the Communist Party and those who fall for this line are playing
right Into the hands of those pledged to bury us.
“The goal of communism Is to reduce the people of this
nation, particularly the young, to a common denominator,
abolish faith In God and replace It with worship of material
things...l, for one, have no stomach for those who would even
allow teaching that God is dead when the United States Supreme
Court will not permit our schools to teach that God is alive.”
such space is available. If the
wife or minor child precedes
the veteran In death, the de
ceased may be Interred in a
national cemetery if the veteran
presents a statement of his de
sire to be buried there at his
death.

Teach Children
With Radio, TV
Parents — not teachers — must
carry the brunt of a child’s early
education, says Dr. James I. Brown
of the University of Minnesota.
Author <»f a new Visual Linguistic
Reading program published by 3M
Company, Dr. Brown underlines the
fact that children spend two-thirds
of early learning years in the home.
“Parents can help educate their
children by surrounding them with
words and word environment, and
by sharing experiences and verbal
izing feelings,’’ says Dr. Brown.
