CITIZENS ASKED TO
KEEP GEORGIA GREEN
CRUSADE
Georgia Counties are urged to
enter the 1955 Keep Georgia
Green Contest which offers a
grand prize of $1000 to the
county doing the best job in
tire prevention work Deadline
for entries is November 15.
A number of counties have
already entered the contest,
announced W. Kirk Sutlive,
Keep Georgia Green Chairman.
The total number of counties
entering between now and No¬
vember 15 will depend directly
cn the willingness of private ci¬
tizens to . rganize their Keep
Green activities and conduct a
grassroots program.”
The Keep Green chairman
emphasied that even though a
county may not win the grand
prize or the second-place prize
of $500, the work done in fire
prevention will benefit every¬
one in the community.
County interest in forest fire
prevention has been boosted by
Governor Marvin Griffin’s ‘‘For¬
est Fire Prevention and Keep
Green Conference’’ held Octo¬
ber 21 in Atlanta Approxima¬
tely one thousand represent¬
atives fr:m every section of
Georgia assembled at the con
ference to hear spokesmen from
forest Indus'ries, governmental
forestry organizations and for¬
estry asociations present the

vention
The confereence was the
largest of ts kind ever held In
Gerrgia. It is hoped that dele¬
gates to the meeting will return
to their own localities prepared
to lead a crusade in Keep Geor¬
gia Green that will counteract
the high forest fire hazards ex¬
pected this present fall season.
Counties which are ready to
oompe’e for the $1000 grand
