Established 1891
GRIFFIN FOR GOVERNOR
After due consideration, listening
to statements made by botn candi¬
dates, charges and countercharges
from both political camps, we are of
the opinion that former governor S.
Marvin Griffin is the man to lead
the State of Georgia through the
trials and troubles that our state is
facing, and will face, daring the
coming four-year term of office.
Marvin Griffin has proven that he
is a champion of the white race. We
don’t believe that he would have
twiddled his thumbs and sat idly by
and told the people to be “good-boys”
while our schools, lunch counters,
public conveyances, etc., were inte¬
grated. Griffin would have defied, as
far as possible, the edict of the Su
preme Court, that has set itself up
as a god over the white people of
the South, with all his power as gov¬
ernor. Governor Faubus and the peo¬
ple of Little Rock showed their dis¬
pleasure of the court’s action. Inte¬
gration in Arkansas was made in
token form several years ago. The
records show that it is still token,
with the NAACP and federal officials
letting the state alone because they
knew the Arkansas leaders would
stand up and fight for what they
thought right.
What did Vandiver, Ralpn McGill
and the Atlanta political machine
do? Nothing, but say, “let’s be ord¬
erly and obey” the commad of this
politically appointed
saviors of the black and rulers of
the white. Griffin may have been
jailed a few days for his defying
acts but it would have brought re¬
sults. Never would Martin Luther
King and the NAACP dictate to
him.
The fact that Carl Sanders is a
candidate of and is sposored by the
NAACP, Ralph McGill, Martin Lu¬
ther King, Jim Cox’s Atlanta news¬
papers, the Atlanta political mach¬
ine, and the big bankers of Atlanta
is enough to turn anybody’s sto¬
mach against him. Sanders isn’t
dry behind the ears, politically
speaking, and is being led to his
political djoom by thig bunch of
city politicians who don’t care what
happens to the candidate as long as
their selfish aspirations are met.
Don’t be misled and think ior one
minute that the large city bankers
are featherig Sanders)’ nejft with
hundreds of thousands of dollars
just to hear the birds sing. Should
he be elected, they are looking for,
and will get, many favors in return.
Then too, there are people of Lin¬
coln County and of Georgia who re¬
member when Sanders was said to
be led around by Chief Kennedy
during his regime as czar of Augu¬
sta. That’s when he was tagged
with the name, “Satchel Carl.”
In a way you can understand why
Ralph McGill and the Atlanta news¬
papers are against Griffin. During
the time that they were making all
kinds of charges against nim for
fraud, none of which were proven
even enough for the Fulton County
grand jury to get a single true bill,
he (Griffin) acting in his capacity as
governor, and using powers design¬
ated to him by the State Legislature,
cut off the Atlanta Newspapers’
liquor advertising, which, accord
mg to the newspapers themselves,
amounted to over a million dollars
loss in revenue.
The large newspapers and big
city political machines would lead
the people to believe that Sanders
will “rack up the votes” in the lar¬
ger counties. They figure mat the
people in the small rural counties
will flock to the so-called winning
side. Sanders will make his biggest
and only showing in the large cities.
The Negro vote, that is. The white
people of the cities have not taken
and will not take this baic put out
for them and even money says that
Griffin will take the white vote in
Richmond and Fulton Counties.
Most political observes are of the
opinion that Sanders will dominate
the Negro vote.
That’s where the rural counties of
Georgia come in!
The great fathers have made
themselves a law instead of inter¬
preting the Constitution as it is, and
decreed that we don’t have the
County Unit System anymore. Nope
we don’t! But we do have an abun¬
dance of white voters.
It is our opinion that the rural
counties of Georgia will stick togeth¬
er stronger now (with the out-law
ing of the County Unit System)
than they ever have in the past
believe that they are more closely
P« Y ms !■
knit and will stand as solid aa a
stone wall against the city political
machines, King, McGill and tha
NAACP. That is our only salvation.
When the big city politicians and
the NAACP get the upper nand all
is lost for the small counties.
Should the “big boys” be success¬
ful in putting Sanders in the gover¬
nor’s chair, he would be more of a
puppet than Vandiver is and has
been. The city machines and the
NAACP would pull the strings and
Sanders would dance to thetr tune.
Sanders would have been much
better off continuing to “climb the
ladder”, maturing as he passed each
rung, and finally winding up on top
a much wiser man. As it is now, he
is not tall enough to reach from the
ground to the roof by himself, and
the ones that are trying to hoist him
up are doing it for selfish reasons.
As we see it, Sanders is not poli¬
tically mature and would only be *
pip-squeak as governor.
Marvin Griffin has the maturity,
the know-how, the will to do, and
the intestinal fortitude to stand up
and fight for what the white people
of Georgia believe is right.
If he stole as much as the Atlanta
newspaper CLAIM he did; if he ac¬
complished as much for Lincoln
County and the state as the people
KNOW he did. and leaving the state
in as good a financial condition as he
did; we believe that it is time to
put him back into the governor’s
chair.
Griffin is the man for Governor!

GAINESVILLE MAN IS SUED
BY GOLDRERG
(Constitution State News Service)
GAINESVILLE — Secretary of
Labor Arthur J. Goldberg has filed
suit in the United States District
Court here naming Carroll B.
Daniel of Gainesville as defendant.
The complaint alleges violations
of the Fair Labor Standards Act
and asks that Daniel be restrained
from withholding payment of over¬
time compensation due certain pre¬
sent and former employees.
Daniel is a general construction
contractor here doing business un¬
the name
struction Company. The suit con¬
tends that He owes $3,721.27 to 62
employees who were employed in
excess of 40 hours per week with¬
out proper overtime compensation
required by the Federal Wage-Hour
law.
Secretary Goldberg has asked the
court to issue a permanent order
restraining Daniel from future viol¬
ations of the overtime pay and re¬
cord-keeping requirements of the
Act.
William O. Futch, Supervisor of
the Atlanta Wage-Hour office, said
that filing of the complaint follow¬
ed investigation^ by members of
his field staff.
ATLANTAN DISAGREES
WITH EDITORIAL
Atlanta—Your recent editorial
“The Economy is Good and it’s
Getting Better” would merit about
a gentleman’s “D” on a beginning
economics examination. Its illogic
and platitudes are in stark contrast
to the thoughtful statements on the
same subject by Ralph McGill and
Walter Lippmann appearing the
same day; their conclusions, inci
dently, are more somber.
Levels of world, U. S., and Geor¬
gia population and past long-run
growth of production are hardly
relevant to the turnaround in stock
prices. Futhermore, it will take a
hard-headed public policy— not
“faith and work, without fear” —to
move the economy strongly upward.
If you are going to analyze complex
economic problems, make sure the
arguments are sound. Leave gibber¬
ish to Barry Goldwater and Lester
Maddox.
