WASHINGTON (UPI) —
and government officials were
vised today to plan
public works projects to get
most from a new federal program
intended to pep up the economies
of depressed areas.
However, they were cautioned
against trying to get government
money for projects which do not
meet a public need or will not pro¬
vide jobs for the unemployed.
Administrator William L. Batt Jr.
of the Area Redevelopment Admin¬
istration said the emphasis will be
on projects that can be started be¬
fore June 30 of next year, and
finished in about 12 months.
“We are looking for speed, speed
and more speed,” he said.
Batt was among the speakers who
briefed about 400 government offi¬
cials attending a conference on the
recently enacted $900 million acce¬
lerated public works program.
Speakers stressed one criteria for
eligibility over which state and lo¬
cal governments would have no con¬
trol—the presence of a serious un¬
employment problem.

NEGRO VOTE DECIDES
A GEORGIA ELECTION
ATLANTA — A veteran "conser¬
vative” Congressman went down to
defeat before a tide of Negro votes
under Georgia’s new election rules.
Representative James C. Davis
(Dem.) lost out in a runoff primary
in his bid for a ninth congressional
term. Mr. Davis, who is 67, was de¬
feated by Charles L. Weltner, an
attorney reguarded as "liberal” who
was making his first political race
at 34.
The vote: 75,000 for Weltner, to
62.000 for Davis. In two small coun
ties, it was Davis, 25,000 to 22,000.'
But in Fulton County, which includes
most of Atlanta, it was Weltner.
53.000 to 37,000. In 12 Negro pre
cints of Atlanta, it was Weltner,
16,068 to 535. This lopsided Negro
vote clearly defeated Mr. Davis, an
all-out segregationist.
Under the county-unit system
which prevailed in Georgia until a
federal court threw it out last spring,
Mr. Davis would have won the pri¬
mary. The two small counties he
carried had eight unit votes. Atlan¬
ta’s county had only six.
WANT TO MAKE A MILLION?
All you have to do is to find a
substitute for advertising. John V.
Doyle, vice-president of Campbell
Ewald Company (ad agency) said
in a speech recently. All that’s ne¬
cessary is to find a substitute way
that will inform millions about a
new product to make life easier;
find a way for men willing to risk
time and money in developing ideas
to reach the public with those ideas;
find a way for the local supermarket
to let every housewife in his neigh¬
borhood know what the price of
hamburger is today; find a way to
tell all the college graduates the
opportunities available to them in
all our different kinds of industries.
That’s ALL you have to do. It was
obvious that Mr. Doyle was vexed
with the critics of advertising.
STRIDES FORWARD IN
MENTAL HEALTH
The principal mental disease is
schizophrenia, which involves a dis¬
integration of the human persona¬
lity. Until recently, victims were
foredoomed to spend their lives in
mental hospitals, at a huge cost,
only in money but in human
and values. But, now, due
new drugs and improved therapy,
strides are being made
combating it.
issue of the Wall Street
Journal. He cites, as one example,
a man who threw his daughter from
a balcony and was confined to an
asylum for many years. But after
treatment with tranquilizers he was
released, is back at work, and liv¬
ing a seemingly normal life.
In late years the long upward
trend of schizophrenics in new York
hospitals has been reversed. The
decline, according to the deputy
commissioner of New York’s de¬
partment of Mental Hygiene, “be¬
gan abruptly with the introduction
of large-scale drug therapy in 1955
and has continued ever since.” A
very recent development, Mr. Law
son says, lies in the use of psyshic
energizers, which are sometimes
used in combination with the tran¬
quilizers to both calm anxiety and
elevate a depressed patient at the
same time. He adds, While more
and more schizophrenics are being
helped by drugs, a determined band
of researchers is trying to work an
even more basic revolution in con
trol of the disease.” This is just one
of the many complicated research
projects carried on by this country’s
pharmaceutical industry in conjunc
tion with the medical profession and
just one of the arrows pointing to
healthier, happier, more productive
lives for millions of people.

JFK SIGNS OLD FOLKS’
HOUSING
WASHINGTON, Sept. 29 (API)—
President Kennedy signed into law
Saturday a bill increasing funds for
low-cost housing for the elderly and
extending the program into rural
areas.
The bill boosts the present autho¬
rity of the Housing and Home Fin¬
ance Agency from $125 million to
$225 million and provides $100 mil¬
lion for rural housing for the elderly.
The urban program was begun in
1959. Under it loans for specially de¬
housing units for the elderly
be made to private non-profit
cooperative sponsors. A similar
will now be available to
areas.

‘WE THROW AWAY OUR
FINANCIAL RESOURCES’
The Editors: I, along with many
others, am deeply concerned about
the fiscal irresponsibility of the pre¬
sent administration. I feel that the
time has come when the United
States must give serious considera¬
tion to its own financial situation.
We cannot remain the world’s
first power if we throw away our
financial resources, as we at present
are doing. Our people are burdened
with taxes, the rights of the states
have disappeared, and the nations
whom we have rescued from econ
mic chaos do not appreciate our
efforts and will not assume their
share of the cost of fighting the
spread of communism. Every nation
to which we have sent countless
billions becomes our enemy the mo¬
ment we stop. friends , who
Instead of making
will help us, we have become the
world’s biggest “sucker.” We must
remember that this nation belongs
to its children, and not to every
nation that reaches out its hand for
a donation.
