GRIFFIN SPEAKS
FOUR TIMES IN 6
DAYS OVER STATE
ATLANTA (GPS)—With the
1957 legislative session >and the
bulk of his bill-signing chores
behind him, Gov. Marvin Griffin
is now back on a heavy speaking
schedule which normally is one
of the biggest time-consuming
duties of a chief executive. For
example, he just recently spoke
four times in as many different
places in a six-day period. Here
is the gist of what he said and
where he said it:
Warner Robins: “From a tiny
community of a few hundred
people in March, 1943, when
Warner Robins was incorporat
ed, it has grown to a thriving
city of 25,000 people who look
forward to even greater expan
sion in the future,” he declared,
as. principal speaker at the Pa
rade of Progress—l4th Anniver
vary Celebration program.
“It was my pleasure to speak
here at the 11th anniversary cel
ebration held in 1953 when I was
serving as lieutenant-governor of
Georgia and in the three years
that have intervened I can see
evidences of the steady progress
that this community has made.
“We are advancing steadily in
Georgia and as long as we main
tain the fine cooperative spirit
that .now exists we can be as
sured that even greater success
awaits us in the future. Such un
ity of purpose can be character
ized as one of our state’s great
est natural resources.”
Atlanta: "Although television
is but 11 years old, it has enjoy
ed a tremendous popularity
throughout the country and
plays an important role in pro
viding public services for the
community, state and nation,”
the governor said at a program
clinic of the Broadcast Music,
Inc., held in Atlanta.
"Here in Georgia we have 13
TV stations, three of them lo
cated in Atlanta ... In Georgia
we are proud of the progress
television has made and we find
that some of our stations are
serving several other states in
this part of the country.”
Milledgeville: Georgia now
ranks among the top states of
the nation in the construction
and operation of new hospitals
and health centers. Gov. Griffin
declared as he dedicated the re
cently completed $1.2-million 80-
bed Baldwin County Hospital.
Said he:
“The Hill - Burton Hospital
Plan, as carried out in this state,
has proved to be a blessing to
our people in every part of Geor
gia. Since the program started

just a few years ago, we have
constructed hospitals, health
centers and additions to existing
hospitals in every region of the
state to the extent that no citi
zen of Georgia is at any great
distance from one of these insti
tutions.
“It is a genuine pleasure and
privilege for me to announce
that the present administration
has backed this great humani
tarian program 100 per cent and
has supplied the money to keep
it progressing at a steady rate.
Cost of hospitals, health clinics
and related facilities completed,
approved or under way during
this administration amounts to
a total expenditure of $17,294,364
in state, federal and local funds.”
Macon: Much of the amazing
progress Georgia has made re
cently in the location of new in
dustries in this state can be at
tributed to the cooperation of
various civic clubs over Georgia,
Gov. Griffin told the Macon Ro
tary Club.
“It would be impossible for me
to tell just how much these clubs
have helped us in this activity
because they serve us in so many
ways,” he said. “They help find
sites for new plans. They some
times furnish auxiliary financ
ing. They are on the alert at all
times to discover what industries
are interested in in Georgia lo
cations and they promote im
provement of local services such
as schools and utilities as an
added inducement to the com
panies.”
