Talmadge Hits At
Foreign Aid Plan
GAINESVILLE -- I GPS) “It’s
time for someone to say they are
not ashamed to protect Ameri
cans!”
Thus declared former Gov.
Herman Talmadge in a speech
before the annual banquet of the
Ninth District Rural Letter Car
riers' Association, held in Gaines
ville, in which he criticized the
federal government's policy of
subsidizing agriculture and in
au“try abroad at the expense of
farmers and factories at home.
Noting that the two and three
ouarter billion dollar foreign aid
bill passed by the recent session
of Congress provided for some
SIOO-million for economic de
velopment in Asia, the Atlanta
attorney and TV commentator
declared:
“Os course, these funds arc to
be used to build up the industrial
and agricultural potential of
Asiatic countries khere wages
and standard of living for work
ers are far lower than those in
America.
“The ultimate effect of these
expenditures will be still more
competition for our Industries
and farms. They carry out the
idea of fuzzy-minded One World
ers in Congress, the State De
partment and other federal
agencies that American industry
and agriculture arc expendable
in so-called world planning."

Groover, Vandiver
Say Cities Won't
Push Their Wants
ATLANTA—(GPs; City offi
cials who complain that the state
doesn’t give Georgia municipali
ties sufficient aid have them
selves largely to blame. At least,
that’s what two legislative leaders
in effect told members of the
Georgia Municipal Association at
their recent annual meeting at
Radium Springs.
In short, Georgia municipal!- :
ties lack force in carrying the '
problems of cities and towns to
the General Assembly, in the ;
opinion of Lieutenant Governor j
Ernest Vandiver, of Lavonia,
president of the Senate, and Bibb
County Rep. Denmark Groover,
Jr., of Macon, floor leader of the
House.
In their speeches before the
convention, both challenged the
association to “come to lite in the I
interest of the majority of Geor- j
gians—those who live in cities !
and towns.” Groover said Geor
gia’s county commissioners get
more results in the Legislature
because of a more active policy. :
“Georgia is changing from a■;
rural to an urban society,” he ,
said. “This makes the problem :
bigger lor the cities and con.se- !
quently they need more help.”
Groover said the Governor and
legislators “are interested in mu
nicipalities, but they look for
guidance to those who speak out
lor the interests they represent.
It is up to the Georgia Municipal
Association to sell the members'
of the General Assembly on the
fact that municipal legislation
affects the towns in every coun
ty. It helps not only Atlanta but
Alpharetta and Alma, too.”
Reviewing the legislative ses-’
sions held this year, which failed ■
to produce major laws aimed at I
helping the urban areas carry ■
out their programs. Vandiver
told the delegates "because your
group failed to lobby, the desired
legislation was not passed.”
The lieutenant governor de
fended the tax raise passed by
the recent Legislature. He point
ed to increased cost of state gov
ernment.; said the need for in
creased taxes also was caused by
inflation; the “terrific cost of
maintaining segregation;” the
matching of federal funds in
various programs, and expanded I
state services.
Vandiver said Georgia is still
striving for “separate but equal
schools,” as prescribed by the
Supreme Court, “which we still
believe to be the law.” He also
said he is "heartily in favor" of
making the Economy Committee
a permanent committee in the
Legislature.
Fleet Purchases
Os Cars, Trucks
Planned By State
ATLANTA—I GPS > A plan de
signed to save the state around
SIOO,OOO annually in the pur
chase of automobiles and trucks
is now under consideration by j
the State Purchasing Depart
ment, according to Lawton Shaw,
state purchasing supervisor. Ne- I
gotiations are under way with
several major manufacturers in
an effort to obtain fleet prices on
state-owned motor Vehicles, he
said.
"A few weeks ago, Gov. Mar
vin Griffin directed me to in
vestigate the possibilities of
buying automobiles and trucks
I for state use at more favorable
prices." Shaw said.
"I am pleased to report that
satisfactory progress is being
made along this line with one
major company already indicat
ing its willingness to afford a
fleet price showing savings'
ranging from $l5O per unit on
passenger cars up to S3OO per
: unit on trucks below the present
dealers cost."
The slate purchasing super- j
visor emphasized that motor vc-I
hides now arc purchased on
competitive bid direct from deal- j
ers who necessarily must bid 1
their cost plus some margin of!
। profit. In most cases, he added, j
this margin has been relatively
slim.
Under the new fleet purchase
procedure, when it goes into ef
fect. the vehicles will continue to
be invoiced to various dealers
throughout the state who bid on
the orders, but the manufacturer j
will absorb the reduction in
price, Shaw explained.
2 New Industries
For Every County
Seen By Candler
‘ATLANTA—(GPS) “We can get
at least two industrial organiza
tions in every county in Georgia
within the next two years—if we
work at it.”
* Thus declared Scott Candler,
secretary of the Georgia De
partment of Commerce, the
state’s No. 1 agency for promot
ing new industries, in a speech
before the recent 22nd annual
meeting of the Georgia Munici
pal Association, held at Radium
Springs.
“We don’t offer industry any
thing free,” he said. “We just
show them they’ll make more
money in our state.”
Pointing out that attracting
industry to larger cities is not
Georgia’s primary problem,
Candler said “Getting industry
to the little towns is the greatest
problem.” However, he added,
“Industry follows industry.”
Then he gave this advice to
towns desiring to attract new
industries:
“Remember that the small
Southern town has great assets
in climate, resources and labor.
You should let everyone know it.
“You have to develop the
things you can offer an incom
ing industry and make it obvious
your town is willing to co-oper
ate.
"Study your state, become sold
on it yourself.

By POPE DICKSON
“Pray as if everything depended on God, and work as if
everything depended upon yourself.”
What a beautiful thought to possess the inner beliefs
that God is all-seeing and all-consuming.
We humans who live this material life naturally seek
notorial possessions. Because of our beief in the Lord, and
our knowledge of His unselfishness, we constantly seek His
assistance. We know He has no ax to grind, nothing to gain
but our love and devotion. And because of this belief we be
come better human beings. We depend upon ourselves and
our efforts for the things we desire and strengthen our de
termination with the knowledge that He is with us. That’s
why I believe religion based upon faith in the Lord is a Won
derful thing.
The kind of religion is immaterial . . . the BELIEF is the
determining factor in our lives.
