Brightest spot
in her budget
i|ii||^ ■ A^^Wfl
•
TRYING TO BALANCE a budget can put a lady
in the darkest kind of mood. But there is
one item that always makes the job easier—
low-cost electricity.
Over the years the price of electric service
has been generally downward. In fact, the
average price per kilowatt-hour of electricity
paid by our residential customers has
dropped more than 65 per cent since 1930.
That’s quite a contrast to the over-all cost
of living, which has jumped 46 per cent.*
For instance, the cost of food has increased
52 per cent; rent, 21 per cent, and clothing,
48 per cent.
Count all the jobs electricity does for you
— cleaning, cocking, washing, lighting, heat
ing, cooling, even entertaining. Then, think
of how little you pay.
You haven’t known another bargain like
this in 30 years!

clothing, rent and food is the U. S. Department of
Labor, Bureau of Labor Statistics.

“Let your light so shine before
| men, that they may see your good
; works, and glorify your father
which is in heaven.” (Matthew
5:16)
Now let us change this a bit
to “Let your light so shine be
| fore children . . .” Someone has
| said that children are more in
I need of models than of critics.
, Then what kind of models are
i we? Are our lights shining that
| they may see clearly enough to
| walk without too much stumb
ling? Os course there will be
rough places all along the path
way of life and there must be
some stumbling and groping—but
as adults, if your lights are shin
■ ing brightly, we can help them
| to chart their courses. When there
i is so much confusion, tension, and
; strife all over our nation and
throughout the world, our chil
dren are crying for a light. The
home front should be a place of
peace and security. The mother’s
। place, especially, in the home is
‘ 1 of great importance as she sets
| the pace for the daily round of
i activities. The mother can create
| an atmosphere of quiet and seren
| ity if she begins her day with God
lor she can allow jangled nerves
■ and pandemonium to take full
I reign. Os course both parents have
I tremendous responsibilities, and
: privileges, as they work together
I in the home to make it a place of
■ refuge and strength.
| Children have away of know
ling when they rate second place
in the affections of the parents;
I that is, that in the mad whirl of
I things they know when the par
! ents substitute tangibles (money
> and “things”) for the intangibles
| love and affection and personal
j time).
Our lights need to shine bright
| er as our children grow older be
| cause the “world” beckons them
|to follow and the way of the
■ world leads to darkness. Let our
. lights so shine that they may see
the brightness compared to the
I darkness and turn again home.
I WAS WONDERING
I was wondering
.... about goodness.
' “Let your light so shine”
before children that
they may see goodness
and learn its meaning.
I was wondering
.... what is goodness to a
child.
.... The child needs an adult
example to give goodness
meaning.
| O God, help me to live so that my
life will give meaning io good
ness.
New Approach To
School Problem
Gains Momentum
The Vandiver administration’s
' new approach to the race-mixing
■ problem in Georgia’s public
schools, which Gov. Vandiver out
lined to the General Assembly at
its recent unusual night session,
appears to be gaining momentum
in the Legislature.
Almost immediately after his
(speech on “The Fate of Public
; Education in Georgia,” delivered
>on what he described as “an oc
! ca«ion history will judge,’’ Van
j diver’s legislative leaders went
\ into action in an effort to imple
i ment his proposals aimed at meet
; ing the school crisis.
Taking their cue from the Gov
! ernor, who said federal courts
' have voided the state’s existing
; segregation defenses and new
| laws are now needed, administra
| tion leaders introduced four
measures which would:
| 1. Amend the State Constitution
j to “guarantee freedom of associa
j tion” to children who do not wish
1 to attend integrated schools.
| 2. Provide “an effective system
! of grants-in-aid based upon valid
‘ premises rather than upon con
‘ tingencies which are legally im-:
I possible- under existing laws.” ;
! 3. Provide “adequate legal ma-;
' chinerv, which does not now ex- j
■ ist, f jr suspension and reopening ■
' of public schools.”
4. Provide “new and effective” ■
: procedures for appealing local'
rulings on school admissions to |
: the State Board of Education—a J
। key to completing “local control^

University of Georgia Receives Contribution
Ed N. Glaser (left). President of the Georgia Consumer Finance
Association presents a check for $1500.00 to Dr. James E. Gates, Dean
of the College of Business Administration, University ol Georgia, to
“be used in support ot the purposes of the college” (of Business
Administration.) Looking on is Wilson Kemp, Atlanta, active alumnus

all effective and subsisting school
legislation on the books and to
augment and supersede those
entactments which are now in
effectual as enabling legislation
for our constitutional provision
authorizing grants-in-aid.”
Legislative leaders predict swift
passage of the Governor's school
package.
Vandiver, in delivering what
perhaps was the most difficult
speech he has ever made, de
clared:
“Public education will be pre- I
served. Our Georgia school chil-1
dren will be protected. Local ad- 1
ministration and autonomy will
be maintained. Grants will be
authorized. The public schools,
the very centers of our commun
ity life and activity, will be
strengthened. The right of your
child and mine to an adequate
education to fit them for an in-,
creasingly competitive world will
be enriched and guarded as are
other sacred rights.” ।
At another point the Governor
said: “Separate education—segre- ।
gated facilities — are our objec-i
lives—first, last and always. Giv
ing our people an effective and
legal means to protect themselves
in light of present conditions,
public sentiment will see to it
in practically every community
that separate education is con
tinued in Ga. on a voluntary basis.
In calling for immediate action 1
by the General Assembly to meet
the situation, Gov. Vandiver had !
this to say:
“In the final analysis, the ques-;
tian— the issue—presented to me .
And to you, is whether we want
to rest our defenses entirely upon

^^HINGTON
THERE ARE TWO courses
open to a United States .Senator
seeking to halt fold reverse the
accelerating federal judicial de
struction of individual freedom
and constitutional government in
this country.
One is to propose constitution
al amendments to correct judi-
| cial fiats which
\ have the effect
\ o f amending
: the Const) tu
ition of the
; United States
i contrary to its
provisions. The
other is to in-
I troduce legis-
lation to exercise the constitu
tional power of Congress to de
termine the jurisdiction of fed
eral courts. This month for the
third time since taking my seat
in the Senate I have taken both
courses with respect to the crisis
created by the Supreme Court’s
school decision of May 17, 1954.
In addition, I also have offered
for the third time my three com
panion bills to restore the federal
judiciary to its appointed consti
tutional role.
« ♦ »
NINE OF MY Southern col
leagues joined with me in sub
mitting the Talmadge School
Amendment which, if approved
by Congress and ratified by three
fourths of the States, would end
for all times the continuing con
troversy which is disrupting the
progress of education in the
United States by writing into the
Constitution the guarantee that
“notwithstanding any other pro
vision of this Constitution, every
State shall have exclusive control
of its public schools, public edu
cational institutions and public
educational systems.”

existing statutes, many of which
are identical to those which have
fallen in other states, or whether
we shall rebuild our defenses to
withstand these onslaughts in the
courts.
“Gentlemen, in laying a breast
works, it is elementary tactics not
to rely on a single, already vul
nerable line, which when once
pierced, the hordes would be upon
us. The time is at hand, therefore,
to seek new and better defenses—
to perfect alternative plans — to
| act with courage and resolve—to
I act decisively —to determine to
[ carry on legal resistance with
every means available to us.
“We must discard rusty and de
fective safeguards. We will fol
low the principle laid down by
the General Assembly and the
people of Georgia in 1954 at the
beginning of this struggle, that,
in our common weal, we will util
ize to the fullest every legal
means and every legal resource at
। our command to maintain sepa
rate education in Georgia.”
| TREAT COTTON SEED
j Treating cotton seed used for
planting is low cost insurance
which almost always pays off
well, says Extension Agronomist
W. H. Sell at the University of
Georgia College of Agriculture.
[ Although treating seed cannot
' guarantee a good stand of cot

experience by growers show that
; seed treating can pay dividends

duced for myself, three of them
with the co-sponsorship of Sena
tor Allen Ellender of Louisiana,
would: (1) require Supreme Court
Justices to have as a minimum
qualification at least five years of
substantial judicial experience;
(2) require the Supreme Court to
accord full hearings to all parties
before acting upon lower court
decisions; (3) require jury trials
in all cases of contempt arising
from the disobedience of any fed
eral court order; and (4) with
draw the jurisdiction of all fed
eral courts over matters relating
to the administration of public
schools by the States and their
subdivisions*
♦ * *
THE LONG ARM of judicial
tyranny has grown to alarming
proportions since 1954 and, in
recent weeks, we have seen it
stretched even further to enjoin
elected governors and state legis
latures from performing their
sworn duties to administer and
finance public institutions and
farmers from exercising their
right as free men to decide who
shall and shall not work for them.
Unless this trend toward ju
dicial dictatorship is checked, the
guarantees of the Constitution
will be rendered meaningless and
freedom will perish. The amend
ment and bills which I have pro
posed constitute what I consider
to be a minimum affirmative pro
gram for preventing such a dread
eventuality and the people of
Georgia may be assured that I
shall seek their enactment in
every way open to me for as long
as I have the privilege of serving
them in the Senate of the United
States.

PoHuHon Still A Problem
After a long look at the state’s water situation,
a Senate subcommittee has recommended further
study of pollution problems and possible strengthen
ing of existing laws.
Senator John Buff and his subcommittee said
Georgia suffers from “a wide variety of uncontrolla
ble pollution problems,” ranging from municipal
wastes to industrial effluents.
The subcommittee confirmed earlier reports that
municipal wastes continue to be the state’s leading
pollutant, despits efforts by many cities to solve
sewage problems.
“Municipal sewage releases from cities lacking
treatment plants and overloaded treatment facilities
in larger cities have inflicted heavy damage to
streams and resulted in losses of recreation, pro
duced odors and killed many fish,” the report stated.
Most severe industrial damages result from acid
discharges, oil wastes and other discharges, the sub
committee reported. »
Buff and four other subcommittee members —-
Senators Harry Redwine of Fayetteville, Russell
Mercer of Metter, R. E. Cannon of Clayton and El
dridge Perry of Warner Robins—recommended that
the General Assembly continue to study pollution
problems.
They also asked that serious consideration be
given to the present structure of the state’s pollu
tion laws.
Rock Creek Gets 'Housecleaning'
Mountain trout anglers who include Rock Creek
among their favorite streams are in for a pleasant
surprise next season, a state fishery biologist said
today.
Howard Zeller of the State Game and Fish De
partment said biologists have chemically removed
all the rough fish from the stream and restocked it
with trout.
The department accomplished its goal of poison
ing out every fish in the stream including trout,
minnows, suckers and other undesirable species.
Goldfish were a major problem in the creek and
in Edmondson and Rock Creek Lakes before the
eradication program.
Giant goldfish,- many as large as six pounds, mud
died the water and interferred with trout reproduc
tion, Zeller said.
After poisoning the stream, biologists restocked
the stream with brook trout. This stocking will be
supplemented by additional releases in the spring.
Rock Creek is one of the state’s most popular
trout streams due to its accessibility to the public.
Technicians Predict
Record Deer Harvest
One of the best deer seasons in history came to
a close January sth and Georgia hunters have every
reason to be proud of their prowess.
Final tabulation of the number of deer killed
during the ’6O-61 season is not yet available but
game technicians are confident that this year’s kill
will surpass last year’s record of 8,000.
Hunters downed 958 deer during the Game and
Fish Department’s special hunts on state game
management areas. This exceeds the old state rec
ord by almost 500 deer.
