Clayton. County Views
BY MRS. PAULINE BRANYON
f ’ x y x ■
It won’t be long till Septem
ber when the time rolls along
to elect the Hon. Herman Tal
madge to the U.S. Senate, so
let's all get busy and get out a
big vote for him. Os course we
know Herman Talmadge will be
elected. Even “ME, Too” (Thomp
son, that is) knew that when he
got into the race, but he just
had to have one more last fling
in the limelight; so he lambasts
Herman Talmadge in his FEW
speech gatherings, hoping to get
a rise out of Herman. Gosh,
what a vindictive piece of a man
“ME. Too” is! Envious, isn’t the
word, but he envies Herman Tal
madge for the man Herman is.
The Hon. Herman Talmadge
belongs to Clayton County, and
we are more than proud that
WE (and not ME! have Herman
as our best and greatest citizen,
and the next U.S. Senator. Yet
you wmuld be surprised at the
NAACPs in this county who are
working for “ME”—and I don’t
mean they are working for me.
They, the NAACPs, have tried
to hide their membership in the
NAACP, they are, everyone,
ashamed to admit membership
in that organization. Yet, each
of the NAACPs wears his brand
—you can see it and tell it if
you only look underneath that
power-seeking, money-gathering
action of theirs. They are try
ing so hard to give “ME” a big
showing, so let’s you and I give
them a run for their money.
Money does talk, you know, and
money is being spent right and
LEFT—mostly Left, to boost
their man—the man they are
ORDERED to vote for. You
know when and if we get enough
left-wing members in Congress,
we shall all be ORDERED to
vote as ORDERED.
Watch out for the NAACPs in
this county. You not only can
kill their vote, you can make it
so small, they will want to hide
their faces. What a pity, their
faces and their brain washed
minds have to be seen! Yet, you
can sight ’em a mile away, if you
only look at what they are try
ing to do.
The States Rights Councils in
Clayton County are perking up!
Forest Park, Jonesboro, and
North Clayton have some wide
awake meetings, and they are
adding members by the score at
each meeting.
You know the main reason
the Clayton County States
Rights Councils are growing so
fast is that the Forest Park Free
Press and the Clayton County |
News have awakened the peo
ple. The people no longer be-'
lieve everything some of the
members of the Church Councils I
—both men and women are |
preaching about the “evils of |
segregation”. Christians, real
Christians believe in segregation, j
because integration will breed
violence, and they know it. But
these so-called religious leaders
don't seem to mind how many
people will be killed, how much
blood will be shed—just so they
carry out the orders given them
by the NAACP.
Lee McLeod said Jonesboro
and North Clayton are doing
fine jobs now in their States
Rights Councils. His own coun
cil, Forest Park, is also going
over big.
Lee McLeod, and his motor
cade, are going to Griffin on the
evening of Friday, Aug. 10, to
help re-organize the Griffin
States Rights Council. Now that
it is a compliment to Lee Mc-
Leod and his workers!
Lots of people won’t join the
States Rights Councils just yet,
because they are afraid they
will lose a dollar in business,
and a little personal power. They
are like scared rabbits—only the
poor rabbits don’t know what it
is all about—but these ’fraidy
people do—their hearts and
hands are in their pockets hold
ing onto their purses. What will
become of those purses if the
NAACPs should win? Better
hurry, Brother, you still got a
long way to go to get yourself
RIGHT, but it can be done, and
it is up to you.

In Memory Os Our Kenneth
Kenneth was just a small little
chap
I remember how he used to sit
on my lap.
Always kidding and having his
fun
It's hard to believe that his
race has been’run.
His sweet smiling face and his
twinkling eyes
Up in heaven I know is just
where he lies.
There’s no use to worry, no
need to be sad
He’s God child now and we
should all be glad.

Our loss here, on earth is now
Heaven’s gain.
His soul has gone on, his mem

His finger-prints and footsteps
we ll treasure so dear.

brave the tide
And, one ot these days we’ll

10 per cent of his earnings to
help in the upkeep of God’s
Kingdom and you don't have to
belong to a church, you have the
responsibility to give because
God created you in His own like
ness and not belonging to a
church does not excuse you from
your obligation.
All of our charity organizations
are good and serve a good pur
pose, but do you contribute be
cause you want to. or do you do
it because someone else is doing
so? Remember what you give
cheerfully helps you. Can God
count on you for “meat in His
storehouse?” You are the one to
answer for your part of it-^do
you want God to bless you and
yours?—then do your part with
your tithes. They belong to .God,
and He promises you many
blessings if you obey Him. God
never fails to keep His promises.
Well, we notice that there are
a few war clouds hovering over
the Mediterranean Sea; let’s
hope they will soon pass away
and there will not be any fight
ing.

Remember, there are two days
you should never worry about,
yesterday and tomorrow.
You are never beaten until you
become discouraged.
