U.S. Should Stop
Trying to Police
W orld — T almadge
ATLANTA (GPS) Back
home in his native Georgia,
U. S. Senator Herman Tal
madge said a “great lesson” to
be learned from the war in
Vietnam is that the United
States “should stop trying to
police the whole world.”
The senator, speaking in
Sylvester at a fish fry spon
sored by the Worth County
Industrial Development
Authority, declared that
“many lessons have come from
Vietnam, including how not to
put soldiers on the battlefield
to fight a war, but there is one
that we should have learned a
long time ago.”
“The United States,” Tal
madge asserted, “has neither
the manpower nor the financial
resources to try to single-1
handedly act as guardian and
policeman for the entire Free
World, or to economically prop
up governments where there
appears to be little desire or
effort to help themselves.”
Pointing out that the U.S.
has some 15 to 17 treaties and
commitments to about 42
nations throughout the world,
the senator said:
“For about 25 years since
the conclusion of World War 11,
the U. S. has relied upon over
seas bases, overseas armies, and
sometimes uncertain allies to
help preserve the peace.
“We need only to look at
the multibillion balance of pay
ments deficit year after year,
the drain upon our financial
and manpower resources, and
the depletion of our gold re
serves to see the results of this
policy.”
Conceding that for many
years following the war, a
United States presence was re
quired overseas. Sen. Talmadge
had this to say:
“But this is no longer the
case. The maintenance of large
Patrolmen to
‘Learn’ Art
Os Driving
The theory of “practice
what you preach” has led the
Georgia Department of Public
Safety to make the highly
touted defensive driving course
available to its nearly 1,200
employees, according to Public
Safety Director Col. R. H.
Burson.
The State Patrol’s 600
troopers are now completing
the eight-hour course devel
oped by the National Safety
Council and taught by the
Safety Education Division of
the Patrol and the Georgia
Safety Council.
Before the end of this year,
all troopers, GBI agents, license
examiners, radio operators, and
civilian employees of the de
partment will have taken the
course which has been de
scribed as one of the greatest
driver improvement programs
ever developed.
BETTER DRIVERS
Col. Burson said he hoped
offering the course to his em
ployees would not only help
make them better drivers, but
would demonstrate The De
partment’s desire to be a model
in improvement of Georgia’s
highway accident and death
record.
Characterized as a common
sense approach of driving, the
course seeks to develop a con
stant awareness on the part of
drivers that accidents can be
prevented with proper precau
tionary measures. The popular
slogan “watch out for the
other guy” typifies the defen
sive driving program.
While most classes for the
course will be offered in the
Georgia Police Academy,
others will be staged at suitable
locations for the State Patrol
across the state.
Many organizations, indus
tries, and businesses have pro
moted the course for their em
ployees to date with what is
termed “amazing results.”
numbers of ground troops to
honor treaties and keep the
peace has become a thing of
the past because of massive air
lift capabilities.
"We have allowed ourselves
to become over-extended and
over-committed, through
foreign aid and military as
sistance. Other countries pros
per while our own economy is
virtually in a shambles, and we
are plagued by domestic prob
lems that demand more of our
resources than we have avail
able.”
In closing, Sen. Talmadge
offers his own solution to the
problem. Said he:
“There is a great clamor
now for reductions in defense
expenditures. For those who
are sincerely concerned about
cutting costs in this area, let
me suggest that we bring some
of our troops home from
Western Europe, from the Far
East, and from other far-flung
stations, and that we require
our allies and other prospering
countries to do more to look
after their own defense and
security.”
“We can,” he added, “keep
a lower silhouette in inter
national affairs and stop worry
ing so much about making the
whole world over in our own
image.”
