STATE S OLONS WANT NO-MIX
AID PLAN VOW
ypp**'
WASHINGTON, Jan. 12.—Rep. Phil
Landrum of Jasper today predicted
Georgia lawmakers will oppose Pres¬
ident Eisenhower’s broadened program
of federal aid for school construction.
Landrum, a member of the House
education and labor committee, which
will handle the legislation, said Geor¬
gia delegation members will unani¬
mously oppose the program unless
sufficient guarantees are given on the
Segregation issue.
Landrum opposed the measure after
the committee refused to accept an
amendment he offered which would
have provided that the right of any
State to fix requirements of admission
and areas to be served by schools
would not be denied.
“Without such protection," he said,
“there would be no assurance as to
how the funds are to be administered.
For this reason, I think I am safe
in saying that no Georgia congress¬
man will support any bill if any seg¬
regation provision is added.”
Under the program, Georgia would
be entitled to match some $10,400,000
bf the funds annually.—Atlanta Con¬
stitution Washington Bureau.

DROUGHT POSES SERIOUS
PROBLEMS
ATLANTA, GA.—Unless Georgia
receives a substantial increase in
rainfall during the coming spring
months, fishermen of this state may¬
be in for some bad news.
This prediction has been made by
Fulton Lovell, director of the Game
and Fish Commission, who struck an
even more onimous note by declaring
that fishermen may not be the only
ones who will be hit by lack of water
in Georgia creeks and rivers.
He said that most Georgia towns
rely upon local streams for garbage
and sewage disposal might also be
hard hit during the summer unless
there is enough rain to flush the
streams of accumulated wastes and
pollution.
“Even under the most favorable
conditions raw garbage and industrial
wastes dumped into our streams have
long plagued the sportsmen of our
state, but with the recent droughts,
the problem may easily become so
acute as to pose an actual threat to
the health of the people of this and
neighboring states,” he stated.
He contended that in some instances
this condition already exists, or is
eminent within the very near future.
Lovell said that the cooperation of
nature and heavy spring rains would
do much to alleviate the problem. He
was also quick to point out that
stronger water pollution regulations
by state, city and counties might be
able to eliminate such a problem be¬
fore it occurs.
“We are allowing our streams to
become virtual open sewers,” he said,
“and unless something is done to reg¬
ulate the unrestricted dumping of raw
industrial and municipal waste into
those streams we may be creating a
problem which may eventually get
past the stage of mere regulation,”
he declared.

“STATE’S PICKING, STICKING
WITH SEN. GEORGE IS PROOF
THAT AMERICAN DEMOCRACY
WORKS”
NEW YORK.—It is not easy to say
in a few words all the things that
Sen. George is. He has so many good
qualities that if they are all listed
one may give the impression that he
is describing a superman.
Yet Sen. George himself will be
found to be as level-headed and mod¬
est as any man anywhere. His great
eminence and the admiration that the
country feels for him have not swelled
his head, nor made him feel that he
is above the common mass. He has the
simplicity ' and the plainness of the
j_ ru j v „ r a ^.
Georgia is glorified by having such
a grcat man as r . s . senator . she is
to |-> e com plimented on having had the
good sen . se these m ' yea rs to return

Georgia has done in picking and stick

workl that the American kind of de¬
niocracy does work.
