Good Schools Are
The Key to Prosperity
By Jack Spalding
THERE is no doubt about it.
Money follows brains. Therefore
education is a key properity.
Illiterate people are poor. Ignor¬
ance may be bliss for there are
some things ignorant people do not
know enough about to worry about.
But these blissfully ignorant
usually are distressingly poor. Not
many of us are so made that we
wallow and glory in the joys of
poverty.
There are some who wind that
being without lightens the burden
of the journey through life. But
most would rather be bowed down
with riches and the worries which
accrue from riches than live clean¬
ly on dates in the desert.
We have learned this lesson here
in the South where we have
been trapped in a vicious cycle of
poverty and illiteracy. We have
been poor, therefore we have not
had the money to provide the best
of schooling for our young.
We have been poorly educated,
ill equipped to cope with the com¬
plex problems of the modem
world, therefore our earning pow¬
er has been low and we have been
poor.
This sort of feedback could have
gone on forever, although the cen¬
tury that poverty and illiteracy
have walked hand in hand through
our country has been long enough.
Recently, however, we have burst
these bonds. A degree of post-war
prosperity hit us. This has allowed
us to give more tax money to edu¬
cation.
FEDERAL AID
There are the foundations. Like
them or not, many have favored
the South for they have given
money where money was needed,
right here at home to our schools.
There is federal aid to educa¬
tion. There is a lot of debate about
its desirability, and even whether
there should be feredal aid to ed-

We hope Washington will give
White County our share of the
$8,7 million for access highways
allocated for theAppalnchii area
ucation. But realistically there is
an awful lot of it right now in one
form or another.
All this leads up to one thing.
The state which spends all it can
on education is going to get all
of it back and then some.
The classic example is California
where millions go to support the
thesis that every citizen has a free
chance at a college degree. Mil¬
lions come from the state, from in¬
dustry, from foundations and from
Washington to support research
there.
The result? A rich state, with
new jobs being created as a result
of this research and manufactured
brain power.
Here we have another feedback,
but a happy one. All those riches
produce better schools which in
turn produce sharper minds tc
produce more riches.
This cause and effect relation¬
ship is now understood here.
Governor Carl Sanders under¬
stands it. Last year’s legislation
by the General Assembly showed
it. Appropriation for schools went
up and controls were tightened to
see that the money went for edu¬
cation and could not be diverted.
We will get this money back,
multiplied, in the form of better
educated people and more and

better jobs. In this technical age
this is the way to get ahead. This
is a system which cannot be beat.
The governor undertands the
way this system works.
MONEY CYCLE
So do the members of the Board
of Regents of the University Sys¬
tem of Georgia.
So do the people out. at Emory
where they have to get along with¬
out taxes and therefore must work
that much harder to finance the
quality education which we hope
will make our children and grand¬
children rich.
So do the alumni of all the
schools I know. Never have I
seen such activity in alumni ranks
and never has my mail been so
heavy with appeals for help.
It’s the old thing of the rich
getting richer. Money equals good
scholars who produce more money.
With us it used to be the old
thing of the poor being stuck.
Poverty equalled poor schools
which equalled graduates for
whose services there was a mini¬
mum demand.
Now we see our way out. Now
we see how it is done.
The state is doing its share, at
last. The smart administrators are
working on foundation grants.
The smart administrators also
are working at breaking the fed¬
eral aid cycle—whereby money for
research pretty well is funnelled to
those places already getting money
for research—like California.
They are working to get some
of that money here, for it is the
kind of money which breeds more
money, and that Is the kind of
money our schools and colleges
and our state needs.

Commissioners of White County
Cleveland, Georgia.
Dear Sirs:
During the past week,
Asa Dorsey, RFD, Cleveland,
and Mr. Spencer Palmer of
same address visited Atlanta
the purpose of talking about
conditions in the White Creek
trict of White County. Various
roads were discussed, as follows:
1. The Kinsey Town Road was
first and it was pointed out that
this road needed additional grad¬
ing. Mr. Dorsey explained to the
Highway Department that he had
been assured by the County Com¬
missioner of this District that the
County would finish grading it
if a contract could be secured for
cross drain pipe along with gravel.
This was granted and a contract
will come to the Commission at an
early date. This is for approxi¬
mately Vh miles.
2. The White Creek Road al¬
ready graded part way and meeds
paving for the part that is now
graded and the balance to be fin¬
ished with grading and paving.
road has been placed under
Roads program in its entire¬
ty. The County will have and
get additional Right-of-way
the part- that is not graded
soon as practical. Bonds will
sold on the 2nd of January,
and at that time we were
that a contract would come
the county. It was explained
if a letter would be pre
to the Highway Depart¬
stating this intention, then
letter of commitment would be
so that any preliminary
could be done if a contrac¬
could be secured that is doing
the work under this plan.
3. Route S1759 from near the
Chattahoochee river to Route 115
was discussed and as soon as the
Gainesville Office can get ad¬
information of Right-of
Way problem that is minor in
nature, this contract will be let.
Continuation of S1759 to Route
225 was discussed and it was
placed on the planning list for
consideration at a early date. It
was pointed out that the corn
pletion of this road through the
County would be of great help
to the entire County and especial¬
those that now live in this area
where it will be an access road
has not been available be¬
It will also be of help to
that may travel the Rich¬
B. Russell Highway. This road
cost about $ 1 % million and
will naturally have to be done
on piece-meal or a short part of
it at a time. But due to its im¬
portance it certainly should re¬
ceive priority and all work for
its completion as soon as possi¬
ble. The Highway Department is
sympathetic and realizes the need
for it.
4. About three weeks ago I met
Honorable Bill Allison in the
Highway Department in Atlanta
and contract was promised to
base the Bean Creek Road, and
I am sure the contract has al¬
ready been received by your body.
New Coffee Pot ^ * I
Brews Twice
The Amount
MALDENS, Mass. — (UPI) _
New coffee pot makes twice as
much coffee per pound as the con¬
ventional percolator, the inventor
reports.
It was invented and patented by
Guido DellaPiana, owner of a
cleaning store, who says it has
reduced coffee buying in his home
from four to less than two pounds
per week.
The ordinary percolator sends
water up and down, with the
water soaking through the coffee
grounds to produce the coffee to
drink.
In Della Piana’s coffeemaker,
which can be adapted to fit inside
any coffee pot, the grounds are agi¬
tated from side to side by water
pressure. Thus the essence of the
coffee grounds is extracted direct

Yemeni Wives .J*
l:at In Secret
SANAA, Yemen, July 16 (API
The average city-dwelling male in
this long-isolated country can
marry, beget children and be
buried alongside his wife, all
without ever seeing her eat.
Yemeni tradition holds that a
wife, who is allowed to remove
her veils in front of her husband
or brother, must never be seen
eating by her spouse. The reason
this is lost in the country’s
ancient traditions, but the custom
is rigidly observed in the cities.
In the countryside, however,
women not only can be seen eat¬
ing, they can also circulate without
veils. This is because the strenu¬
ous working pace of rural life in
Yemen leaves no time for such
oriental enigmas as trying to guess
who is under all that camo¬
uflage.
This letter is given you in good
faith and I want each of you to
know that I will cooperate in every
way possible for the betterment
of the County and to help your
body in any way that I possibly
can.
Will be happy to be invited to
appear before or with you at any
meeting of your body so that I
can know your wishes. I think
by working together we can
accomplish much more and we def¬
initely need to make whatever
progress that we can at this time.
Come to see me. My telephone
number is (home) 782-4992 and
(office) 782-3240. I do hope to
see each of you at an early date.
Kindest personal regards and
best wishes.
Sincerely, J
