THAT'S A WORD WHICH
DESCRIBES YOUR
WEEKLY NEWSPAPER.
In an era in which all the media
are competing almost desperately
for circulation and advertising, the
weekly newspaper has proven its
durability beyond any question.
It is the medium closest to the
hearts of the people. Nothing can
take its place.

RUSSIA A PLACE
(Continued From Page One)
usually in evidence because of
the citizenry’s hostile attitude.
Many Russian soldiers were
seen in East Berlin, however.
The Berlin wall is “like a
prison,” in Surles' words. “It’s
i like having a major portion of
a city in prison." He and his
group went to West Berlin from
Hungary and crossed at the
famous “Checkpoint Charley.”
No West Germans are allowed in
i East Germany so their guide
had to desert them at the gate
and they were given an East
Berlin guide once across.
The Moscow University is a
fine complex of buildings cover
ing three or four city blocks.
Few children were seen on the
Russian streets. They are appar
ently in care centers, said Surles.
The trips in Russia were made
in Russian jets which were ef
ficient and about like ours but
not quite as plush.
The group enjoyed an ice
ballet, a circus, and a visit to
public parks while in Russia.
They were not prohibited from
going anywhere they wished but
they had a rather tight schedule
and didn’t know their way
around well enough to venture
out much without their guide.
The trips to the Baptist church
and the railway station were
two of the unescorted trips.
There is an abundance of
prosperity in West Europe.
Things were “booming” in Bel
guim, Sweden, West Germany
and all that area. And there is
a labor shortage. The Common
Market is more successful than
it was ever thought possible, the
group was told. They were
briefed on it during their stop in
Brussels, Belgium.
The late President Kennedy is
still by far the most popular
American in Europe, including
Russia. The Russians seemed to
respect him for his combined
firmness and ability to discuss
topics, said the attorney. There
were many requests for Kennedy
half dollars.
The Russians seemed intent
and showed no warlike attitudes,
on having a better way of life

council Monday night okayed
plans for the expansion to the
warehouse, noting that work
will begin as soon as the current
expansion to Berryton is fin
ished.
It will cost about $17,000.
An ordinance making it un
lawful for anyone under 21 to
loiter or remain in any public
place after having been directed
by a law officer to move on was
given its first reading.
The mayor and council tabled
plans for putting employees
under social security this year,
noting that it did not have the
SB,OOO deposit which is neces
sary. However, it was noted that
the council hopes to be able to
include this in next year’s
budget.
Acting on the recommenda
tion of Police Chief Griffin
Pledger, the mayor and council
promoted David Starkey to the
position of sergeant in the Sum
merville Police Department.
The council authorized the
seeking of bids to replace one of
the police cars, Vehicle No. 2,
the black car.
J. T. Morgan and Everett
Lunsford were re-appointed to
the Chattooga-Municipal Plan
ning Commission for four-year
terms each.
Several street lights were ap
proved and two taxi operator
license applications were tabled.

advance. Details of this pro
cedure will be announced. The
practice of taking ballots out to
the car is not only against the
new law but has also always
been against the law, Ordinary
Weems said he was told in At
lanta.
All poll workers must wear
badges so designating them.
They are being ordered.
In Summerville, voting will be
downstairs in the courthouse.
Henry Woods, Summe rv ill e
member, announced. He said all
offices will be closed that day
and the hall will be used. The
front door will be the entry
point, the back door will be
closed and the two side doors
will be exit points. A man will be
stationed at the two side doors
to see that no one enters there.
Ballot counting will take place
upstairs.
In Trion, voting will be in the
Town Hall, formerly the Trion
Inn, Trion Committeeman Doug
las Baker announced. He said
this is the first time for a Demo
cratic primary to be held at this
site. It was formerly held in the
Trion Store or the Trion Com
munity Center.
Write-in votes will be. permis
sible in any race because the
Georgia constitution states a
voter may vote for whomever he
wishes, it was noted.

passed by Congress approving
the president’s action was “a
positive manifestation of the
bipartisan support” accorded
President Johnson in the mat
ter.
“The choice we made was hon
orable and proper,” said Davis,
“and it was appropriate that we
should retaliate with enough
severity to show North Viet Nam
that we would tolerate no fur
ther foolishness.’’
A recent study shows that
more than half of Georgia’s tim

a written agreement or contract

foresters with the Cooperative
