THE MAGNITUDE of the
federal budget proposed for the
1963 fiscal year beginning July
1 staggers one’s capacity for
comprehension.
It is the largest budget in our
nation’s peacetime history and
is only a little less than $6 bil
lion below the largest of the
yearly budgets required to win
World War 11.
It totals $92.-
537 billion
which figures
out to more
than SSOO for
each of the
185-million
plus men, wo
men and chil-
dren in the United States. To
print each item in it requires a
volume of 1171 pages which, by
way of comparison, is roughly
the same size as the telephone
directory for Metropolitan
Washington, an area of more
than two million people.
• * *
THIS BUDGET, however, rep
resents only a part of the gov
ernment spending story for the
next fiscal year.
It is what is known as the
bookkeeping budget which is
substantially smaller than the
cash budget. The latter, which
includes spending items from
trust funds like those for Social
Security and highway construc
tion, will be $114.8 billion and
will set an all-time record for
federal spending during any one
12-month period.
U. S. News and World Report
has compiled some most reveal
ing statistics about how all that
money, if appropriated by Con
gress, will be spent. It figures
those billions will go out in the
form of 467 million checks to 2.5
million government workers, 3./

ments and more than 70 of the
105 nations of the earth are j
slated to get foreign aid hand
outs.

BOTH OF THESE budgets
are in theoretical balance; that
is, they assume that income will !
exceed outgo if the nation’s j
economy continues to improve
at the predicted rate and Con
gress enacts the President’s rev
enue recommendations. Should
things work out the way the
Chief Executive envisions them,
the Government would have its
seventh balanced budget in 30
years come June 30, 1963.
President Kennedy is to be ap
plauded for recognizing the ur
gent necessity of achieving a
balance in the federal budget as
an essential adjunct of assuring
the security of the nation. To
ward the goal of achieving that
end he has my wholehearted sup
port
I also feel strongly that non
essential federal spending must ;
be reduced, particularly in the
area of aid to Communist and
neutralist countries, and I expect
to so vote when the spending
measures come before the Sen- i
ate. It has been my experience
both as a governor and a legis
lator that any budget can be re
duced in many areas without
curtailment of necessary serv
ices to any degree.

| Cells Grow Wild
In Cancer
) All living matter is composed
iof individual units called cells.
■Groups of similar cells form tis- i
i sues and organs. The structure
I and function of each organ is de
| termined by the structure and
) function of its particular cells
and the arrangement of those
. cells.
Each cell has a central nu
[cleus surrounded by a substance
! called cytoplasm. The entire cell
I is enclosed by a thin membrane.
The growth and development of
| tissues takes place at a fairly
) constant rate and cell division is
iat the heart of these processes,
i The rate varies according to the
I age of the person but the basic
) process is the division of one cell
1 into two.
Wornout cells disappear and
[new ones,, growing at a rate suf
i ficient to keep the body in repair,
replace them. Sometimes, though
the cells begin to grow wildly.
They grow so fast that new cells
appear before the old ones dis
appear and masses of cells or tu
mors develop. The word “tumor”
simply means an uncontrolled
new growth of tissue. Tumors are
' made up of abnormal cells which
may resemble, in varying degrees,
I those of the parent tissue.
Tumors are either benign or
malignant. Benign tumors are

Sometime this winter many
farmers are going to be faced
with sudden and serious losses in
their hog lots as the result of
buying replacement swine.
The losses will be caused by
swine dsyentery, now one of the
most difficult diseases we have
to deal with It is often brought
onto a farm by replacement
i stock purchased from an infected
herd. The resulting losses can be
extremely heavy. Swine dysen
tery can affect 100 per cent of the
herd. If the pigs aren’t treated,
death losses can run from 25 to
j 50 per cent
Scouring is generally the first
sign of an outbreak. However,
scouring is also a symptom of
This is time of year to watch
! for swine dysentery losses. These
often run from 25 to 50 per cent,
i
) several other serious swine dis
eases. So, tfce first thing to do
when scouring appears is to have
a veterinarian make a diagnosis.
; Then, when the exact disease is
; determined, proper treatment can
be set up to deal with it.
i There are several other pecu
; liar signs sometimes associated
with swine dysentery. In some
cases the owner will find a dead
pig in the lot, without any pre
vious warning of any kind. Also,
dysentery pigs often show dehy
dration and loss of weight. Sunken
। flanks may be noted. And despite
; scouring and loss of weight the
sick pigs will often continue to
eat well.
Fortunately, swine dysentery
! can now be treated effectively,
' provided treatment is started
early and pursued thoroughly.
However, the disease sometimes
| tries to stage a comeback after
treatment is stopped. For this
reason the veterinarian may rec
ommend a follow-up treatment
for a time, to make sure the out
break is kept under control.
Because dysentery can be
brought onto the farm by infected
j replacement stock, it is a good
idea to isolate all newly-pur
chased animals for a period of
) weeks before allowing them to
join the home herd. This is com
mon sense in dealing with any
I disease, but especially so with
1 swine dysentery.
composed of cells similar to those
in the parent tissue. These tu
mors remain localized. In grow
ing, they simply expand and push
normal tissues aside. These tu
mors can be dangerous, however.
They can interfere with the func
tion of vital organs when they
push into them.
In contrast, malignant or can
cerous tumors are made up of
cells less similar to those of the
parent tissue than are the cells
of benign tumors. Cancer cells
are abncrmal. They generally
grow faster than normal cells, ac
tually invade and destroy adja
cent normal tissue.
Most serious of all, portions of
the cancer may get away from
the original lump and spread to
distant parts of the body. They
lodge at the distant location and
begin to grow and multiply.
These distant cancers are called
metastases. Their origin can
sometimes be determined or at
least suspected because of. the
similarity of the cells in them to
those in a cancer somewhere else
| in the body.
Just as benign tumors produce
illness and sometimes death by
interfering with the function of
vital organs, so do malignant tu
mors. But malignant growths are
far more dangerous. They can
spread cancer throughout the
body byway of the blood stream
or lymph glands.
Nobody knows the exact cause
of cancer but ignorance and fear
keep many persons from seeking
medical treatment .in time for
their lives to be saved. You
should be alert to the seven
warning signals listed by the
American Cancer Society. None
of the signs definitely indicates
cancer but they do mean a visit
to the doctor is in order.
The warning signs are: unusual
bleeding or discharge, a lump or
thickening in the breast or else
where, a sore that does not heal,
change in bowel or bladder habits
persisting for more than two
weeks, hoarseness or cough per
sisting for more than two weeks,
indigestion or difficulty in swal
lowing that persists for more than
two weeks, change in a wart or
mole.
DOC MAG SAYS:
: The cause or causes of cancer
are not known but many cancers
can be cured. The earlier treat
ment is given, the greater the
chance of cure. Heed cancer’s
warning signs.

"JOINED THE WAGON TRAIN;
BE BACK MONDAY"
By Charles E. Hooper
“Sorry — gone to the moun
tains!” . . . “Joined the wagon
train — be back Monday” . . ■
“Closed today and Sunday”.
These aren’t gold rush signs in
stores during the 1800’s but mod
ern signs found in most store
windows and businesses at Young
Harris, Georgia. These signs,
quite unorthodox for modern
times, illustrate the determina
tion and imagination of a group
of citizenry to reach their goal
of having a paved road to Brass
town Bald — Georgia’s highest
peak. There actually was a
wagon train trip and businesses
were closed for the annual treck
up the side of the slope. As many
as 20 wagon trains, 150 mounted
horsemen, and scores of hikers
have made the 7-mile trip up
the dirt road, known as State
। Highway No. 66, to an elevation
of 4.784 feet. This same group
of citizens interested in further
developing their natural beauty
actually paved a one-half mile
stretch of the road and planted
mountain laurel along the route.
However, it is now highly pos
sible that the signs will no longer
be seen. The wagon train has ac
complished its desired goal. Soon
a winding stretch of paved moun
tain road may lead thousands of
Georgians more easily to one of
the most magnificent views in
the state — Brasstown Bald. Sen
ate Resolution No. 123, recently
introduced in the 1962 session of
the Georgia Legislature, recom
mends the reopening and finish
ing of the road. The panoramic
view from the top is breath-tak
ing. Picnic tables, camping facili
ties, restrooms, and parking areas
are in the vicinity of. the moun
tain. And with the coming of
spring, the mountain laurel, deep
purple and white violets, bud
ding dogwood, gurgling mountain
streams with trout hungry as the
black bear trying to catch them,
and many other varieties of wild
life will make your trip up Geor
gia’s highest peak even more sur
prising.
At the top of the mountain, a
plain tablet commemorates many
Georgia “firsts” — first gold rush
in the country, first cotton gin,
first steamship crossing, first wo
man senator, first use of ether,
first long distance telephone call
— and many others.
Hang out your sign on the front
door: “Sorry, gone to the moun
tains”, so that your neighbors
and relatives will know where to
find you — but better still, take
them along f.or a trip to that sec
tion of Georgia a mile high,
Brasstown Bald. Besides the “full
screen view”, the silver and blue
threaded streams, the timid and
gentle deer, and the arts and
crafts of th mountaineers, you’ll
find that the trip to Brass town
Bald will be the most modern
tranquilizer that you could find
after a week of work. Ask your
local service station operator to
give you the best and most direct
route. He’ll be glad to assist you.

Tetrazzini, a luscious dish created originally with chicken,
noodles and mushrooms in a savory cheese sauce, came into being
as a chef’s probable adulation for the Italian opera singer Luisa
Tetrazzini, bom in 1874, who achieved world-wide fame.
Here’s a wonderful way to use up those last morsels of your
Thanksgiving turkey. Turkey Tetrazzini will seem like a first-day
special rather than the last go-round when combined with mush
rooms, noodles and pimiento, topped by a cream sauce sparkedl
with Tabasco, the zesty liquid red pepper seasoning.
Turkey Tetrazzini
4 tablespoons butter, 2 tablespoons diced
divided pimiento
% pound mushrooms, sliced 2 cups (4 ounces) fine
2 tablespoons flour noodles, cooked
1 teaspoon salt ’A cup grated Parmesan
1% cups milk cheese
1 bouillon cube 1 cup soft buttered bread
% teaspoon Tabasco crumbs
2 cups diced cooked turkey
Melt 3 tablespoons of the butter in saucepan. Add sliced mush
rooms and cook 5 minutes. Blend in flour and salt. Gradually
stir in milk; add bouillon cube. Cook over medium heat, stirring
constantly, until mixture thickens and comes to a boil. Remove
from heat; stir in Tabasco. Place turkey, pimiento and noodles
in shallow baking dish. Pour mushroom sauce over all. Sprinkle
with cheese and dot with remaining butter. Sprinkle buttered
bread crumbs around edge. Bake in a moderate oven (375°F.)
20 minutes or until browned. Yield: 4 servings.
