By special messenger|the State
Highway Department Monday
night had delivered to our home
a iegal advertisement for the
letting of the Senator Richard B
Russell Scenic Highway ou De
cember 21. Ail ads from them
heretofore were mailed. So it
looks like some powerful person
has been at work. The Courier
called the State Highway Dept.
Atlanta offiee last week and they
couldn’t say when it would be let
The contract will be from
Richard Sims’ to Hog; cu Gap,
a distance of 7.112 miles and com¬
pleted in 84 O working days.
It will begin just behind F lehard
Sims’ home and go through pine
tree, via Windy Gap and follow
the ridge 1-2 mile NW of the late
41 Little Andy” Adams bomeplace
and cross Dukes Creek, thence
near DoddCreek to close toRaven
Cliffs and to Hogpen Gap. The
construction will be 3 O ft. and
pavement 20 ft.
It will take $234,000 to com¬
plete this great highway to Tes
mitee Gap and this amount will
allocated in two or thiee weeks.
Senator attached an amend¬
ment for $ 500,000 to the Federal
Highway Act of i960 and in early
spring of 1962 he h»d allocated
$800,000 toward building this
great scenic highway, which is
the $ 1 , 300,000 now being used to
let this highway Dee. 21 to Hog
peu Gap.
The survey has been completed
for many, months, but the State
Highway Dept, would not let any
of it. Now we trust that the
short distance from Hogpen Gap
to Tesnueee Gap will he let in
January 1963
Senator Russell has opened up
some of the finest scenry in allthe

Emory Starts Research
On Glaucoma
Basic research on the eye now
going on at Emory University may
help answer the puzzles presented
by plaucoma, a disease threatening
10 percent of the population over 40.
Dr. Morton B. Waitzman, director
of opthalmic research, has received
three grants totaling $88,132 for re¬
search in this area from the Nation¬
al Institute of Health of the U. S.
Public Health Service.
The new program at Emory is
the first unified basic eye research
in this area. Discussing the cost of
research, Dr. Waitzman says that
“the public funds required to sup¬
port one blind person can easily
finance several years of research
efforts of this type.

The Outlook For
Cheap Atomic Power
Washington—The gist of a report
on the future of atomic power, giv¬
en to the President by the Atomic
Energy Commission:
Today; Atomic power is on or
near the threshold of competiveness
with conventional power” in New
England and California—two areas
where fuel costs are high.
In the 1970s: Nuclear power will
become competitive 'throughout
most of the country. > t
By the turn of the century: Nu¬
clear power will be producing about
of all the electricity in the U.S.
By the middle of the next cen
tury: Most” electricity will be
generated by atomic power.
Sex Survey Figure
Enters Guilty Plea
Miami, Fla.—Robert David Adler,
accused of conducting an unauthor¬
ized sex survey, quickly changed his
mind when he heard a statuesque
blonde testify she woke up in bed
after he gave her a drug.
Adler, 31, changed his plea in
Court from innocent to
without waiting to hear the
of eight other women.
Judge Jack A. Falk accepted Ad¬
pleas to charges of posing as
medical practitioner and adminis¬
a barbiturate last May 25.
The woman said Adler came to
apartment and told her he had
assigned by the government
measure her body from head
toe.
She said she lapsed into uncon¬
after he induced her to
two swallows of a bitter, green¬
liquid, and “when I awoke in
I was completely nude.”
Alfonso Sepe, assistant state at¬
said Adler posed as an agent
the U. S. Department of Com¬
and told women they would
subpoenaed by the government
they refused to answer his ques¬
during the survey.
Judged Falk ordered a psychiatric

on Parade” each week. Follow¬

umn:
It has been said time after time
that the people of Atlanta have
been brainwashed by the Atlanta
Newspapers that they just gave up
in the fight against integration.
has seemed to be true in in¬
stance after instance. But, the worst
have heard about their spine¬
lessness happened last week.
A young Negro about 18 years old
beat up an old white man on a
trolley in Atlanta, right on White¬
hall Street, about 8:30 A. M., and
not one man on the trolley raised
his hands to help the old man. Even
the motorman just sat there and
watched, after stopping the trolley
right in the middle of traffic. Ap¬
parently he wanted to give the
young punk the opportunity to fin¬
ish his assault in leisure and then
get off the trolley.
We didn’t see the incident, our¬
selves, but have an eyewitness to it.
So, we called the Atlanta Constitu¬
tion, just in ease they wanted to
the story down and print it. So
far, we haven’t seen a word about
it in their paper,
The same sort of thing happens
frequently in Washington, New
York, Detroit and those other big
cities where the Negro vote is so
strong that the politicians are scar¬
ed to have the police do anything
about the outrages the Negroes
wreak on white people. But, for it
to happen in Atlanta is a shame
and a disgrace, even if the Negro
vote does cont.-ol City elections.

‘Rabbit Fever’
Warning Directed
At Hunters
Both hunters and housewives are
warned of the dangers of contract¬
ing tularemia by the Health Depart¬
ment, now that the squirrel and
rabbit hunting season has begun.
The disease, often called “rabbit
fever,” is usually spread in Mary¬
land through contact with infected
rabbits and squirrels. Not handling
wild rabbits or wild squirrels is
thus the best preventive measure.
If an individual does go rabbit
or squirrel hunting, says the Health
Department, he should:
Never shoot a rabbit or squirrel
which doesn’t appear lively—it may
be sick.
Always use waterproof gloves in
good condition when dressing or
otherwise handling these animals
—be sure no part of it comes in con¬
tact with the skin.
Dispose of the skin and entrails
by burning or by wrapping well and
place in the garba£e can.
Cook the animal thoroughly—tu¬
laremia is not destroyed by freez¬
ing or refrigeration.
Emory Doctor
Offers Drug Advice %
To Expectant
In the wake of the thalidomide
tragedy, the chairman of Emory
Medical School’s pediatrics depart¬
ment offers these guides to expec¬
tant women:
In early pregnancy take as few
as possible, have these prescribed
by physicians, and, if possible, use
only drugs of proven safety rather
than new ones.
New federal legislation requiring
that drugs be more carefully
screened with pregnant animals
should provide added safeguards,
he says, but may not always be ef¬
fective since animals and humans
sometimes react differently to drugs.
Swank Club Padlocked
After Nude Dance
Newark, N. J. — Atlantic City’s
swank Jockey Club has been order¬
ed padlocked for 75 days on charges
it permitted dancers to strip nude
before conventional tg senool Gaid¬
ais.
The division of Alcoholic Bever¬
age Control (ABC) said Tuesday it
suspended the club’s liquor license
because it permitted the lewd show
last Feb. 18.
The club pleaded innocent.
The controversial act took place
during the national convention of
the American Association of School
Administrators and it was witness¬
ed by conventioning high school
principals, superintendents and
board of education members, the
ABS said.
Two undercover liquor agents said
there were about 300 persons in the
audience, 99 percent of whom were
male.
