From Governor
Ta Imad op
Farm Plan
Gets Boost
U. S. Sen. Herman E. Tal
madge’s farm plan, now pend
ing in Congress, got a boost the
other evening from Gov. Carl
E. Sanders.
Addressing the fifth annual
meeting of the Middle Oconee
Watershed Association, held at
Talmo in aJckson County, the
Governor said the Talmadge
Farm Plan was the best solu
tion to the nation’s agriculture
problem, because it is geared to
domestic consumption.
“As a matter of logic and di
rection,” Sanders said, “I con
sider the plan offered by Sen.
Talmadge the best solution to
the fawn problem through legis
lation.
“The reason I feel as I do is
because Sen. Talmadge’s plan
takes into account the needs of
the farmer, the need for more
trade, and more industrializa
tion in agricultural states.
“I hardly see how anyone can
disagree with the logic that a
farm program should be geared
to domestic consumption.
“I say that because we cannot
hope to sell our surprlus agri
cultural products on the world
market so long as we insist on
holding an umbrella over do
mestic prices.”
Referring to foreign trade,
and particularly the Common
Market controversy, Gov. San
ders continued:
“For those who say that’Amer
ican farm products cannot sell
competitively on the foreign
market, I would point out the
success of our Georgia poultry
farmers in putting Georgia
chickens on the foreign mar
ket before the European eco
nomic community intervened
with its high tariffc upon Geor
gia poultry.

Home Rule Key to Good
Government, Savs Geer
“Building a Stronger Local
Government” was the subject of
a speech Lt. Gov. Peter Zack
Geer delivered the other day be
fore the Columbus Rotary Club.
In it he emphasized the need of
home rule. Here are some of the
things he said:
“Strong, local self-government
Is the foundation-stone of our
free society . . . the key to the
continued existence of a free
America is found in forging
stronger local governments,
rather than a power-hungry
central government.”
Pointing out that “we are for
ever searching for new methods
of strengthening local govern
ment so that our problems can
be solved at home, under local
laws and by local people," Geer
said “one way that we can
strengthen local government is
by home rule.
“Home rule, in my judgment,
will strengthen the foundation
of free constitutional govern
ment and help us preserve and
protect this great republic of
our and all its institutions—free
from bureaucratic or judicial in
terference.
“One of the greatest advan
tages of home rule is that it de
velops a keen sense of responsi
bility for local standards of gov
ernment and encourages resi
dents to take a greater interest
in governmental affairs.
“Instead of the indifference
which often characterized ab
sentee government, popular in
terest grows as the measure of
local responsibility increases."
These, the Lieutenant Governor
said, are some of the primary
considerations to be weighed in
the drafting of “a sound, well
drawn, workable home rule pro
vision to be included in the new
Georgia Constitution.”
He said other states have found
that enactment of home rule
legislation brought about a sub
stantial reduction in the tremen
dous number” of local bills
which state legislatures have to
deal with each session.
“I am sure that we could reap
similar benefits in Georgia,”
Geer declared. “A substantial
part of the time of the Georgia
General Assembly is taken up
with passing strictly local acts,
and local constitutional amend
ments.”
