Senate Fails To Heed U. S. Senator
Herman Talmadge's Warning Signal
Despite a stern warning from U. S. Sen. Herman E. Talmadge
that negative action would be a step toward one day totally destroy
ing the Constitution, the Senate the other day rejected the Georgian’s
Iwo amendments to the Johnson administration’s voting rights bill.
Talmadge’s dual amendment
was aimed at eliminating the sec
tion of the bill dealing with fu
lure changes in state and local
voting laws. That section pro
vides that in Georgia and six, oth
er Southern states covered by the
bill, voting laws can only be
changed with the consent of the
U. S. attorney general or the Fed
eral District Court in Washing
ton.
The Senate defeated his pro
pos J by a vote of 60 to 19. But
before the vote was taken. Sen.
Talmadge, in denouncing that
part of the bill as “unprecend
ented, unheard of, and blatantly
unconstitutional,” declared:
“If ever there is justification
for flouting and suspending the
constitution «s it applies to se
lected states in the Union, then j
someday the people may be told j
that there is justification for sus-1
pending the Constitution as it ap-'
plies to all of our 56 sovereign I
states. If suspending certain sec
tions of the Constitution in some
states today can be justified, then
certain sections of this sacred doc
ument can someday be suspend
ed in all of the states.
“I submit that there is abso
lutely no justification at any time
or under any circumstance for
suspending the Constitution of
the United States or for violating
any of its provisions. Whenever
the American people allow them
selves to be seduced into believ
ing that -any such justification ex

Declaiing that “this bill smacks

: “There is absolutely no author

“It is my earnest hope that the j

CATTLE SITUATION
' On January 1 there were 79,000
'cattle and calves on grain feed I
) for the slaughter market in Geor
gia. This was the same number
on feed at the first of 1964, ac
cording to the State Crop Report
ing Service. However, it is 55 per
cent above the 51,000 head on
October 1, 1964.
ON DENTAL CARE
Preventive dental care, accord
ing to Miss Lucile Higginbotham,
head of the Extension Service
health department, includes these
three factors: (1) brushing teeth
properly immediately after each
meal or snack; (2) reducing the
amount of sweets, and (3) seeing
'your dentist for regular checkups.
WHEELER COUNTY EAGLE, ALAMO, WHEELER COUNTY, GEORGIA
I ! Georgia Power Co.
Offers To Increase
I Scotland Tax Receipts
Details of the Georgia Power
; Company’s offer to increase by
33-1/3 per cent its gross receipts
’ tax payments made annually un
der the untility’s Municipal Part
nership Plan were presented May
. 24 to Scotland City Council by
company officials.
This offer of a voluntary in
crease, represents an upward re
vision of the rate of payment from
three to four per cent on gross
sales of electricity to residential
and commercial customers with
■ in the city limits.
The Municipal Partnership
: Plan, instituted in 1947, provides
for Georgia Power Company to
make these payments to the city
in place of occupational license
taxes. The payments are in addi
tion to the company’s property
taxes.
John J. McDonough, board
chairman, had announced in De
cember; 1964, the company’s of
fer to increase the Municipal
Partnership payments.
“In recent years,” Mr. McDon
ough said, “more and more of
I our Georgia cities have been fac
ing the problem of adequately
financing an ever-growing num
ber of services and operations. It
is hoped that these additional!
funds will be used for vital mun-1
icipal services.
“Municipal partnership pay-1
ments to Georgia’s cities for 1964
based on the three per cent gross
receipts figure,” he said, “are ex
pected to total an estimated $3,-
200,000. Payments for 1965, with
the gross receipts figure at four
per cent, are expected to reach
$4,685,000. Os the $1,485,000 dif
ference, $1,200,000 will represent
the one per cent increase and the
remainder the anticipated growth
in electrical consumption.”
It is estimated that the city of
Scotland, under the new percent
age of payments, will receive an
increase of SBO.OO in gross re
ceipts taxes for 1965 from the
Georgia Power Company. This
will make a total of $310.00 in
gross receipts taxes for 1965 from
the Georgia Power Company.
EGG IS CEMENT?
A famous chef once said: “The
egg is the cement that holds the
' castles’lbf cookery together." He
knew what he was talking about,
according to Extension nutrition
ists at the University of Georgia.
Today’s cooks use eggs to thicken
a custard or sauce, to leaven or
lighten a souffle or cake, to hold
oil and vinegar together in a
creamy mayonnaise, and to make
clouc^y soups clear.
SPRAY-ON STARCH
If you use spray-on starch, spray
the garment on the wrong side,
roll it up for a few minutes, then
iron it on the wrong side. This
suggestion is from Miss Lora
Laine, Extension home manage- j
ment specialist. If. any touch-up j
is needed from the right side, she!
suggests using a press cloth to
avoid shine.
POWDERED BERRIES?
Engineers of the U. S. Depart
ment of Agriculture’s Research
Service have already produced a
starawberry powder. They also
have made raspberry, blackberry,
j and boysenberry powders. But so
! far these products are only ex
perimental. Suitable packaging
and storage conditions still have
to be worked out.
—,
FUTURE DENTAL CARE
Dental authorities, according to
Miss Lucile Higginbotham, head
of the Extension Service health
department, predict that a coat
ing for teeth will be the greatest
future advance from research
against dental disease. The coat
ing. she said, will reduce the abil
ity of bacteria to ding to the
teeth.
USED TO FIGHT IT
Georgia farmers used to fight
Bermuda grass. But now, accord
ing to Extension Service Agrono
mist W. H. Gurley, many are cul
tivating it for a valuable grazing
and hay crop. Helping to bring
about this change was Coastal
Bermuda, a hybrid strain with a
tremendous response to lime and
fertilizer.
RAKE AND BURN
Orchard owners can destroy the
source of some fruit diseases by
raking up and burning all old
debris from under the trees. Ex
' tension Horticulturist C. D. Spi
vey says this gets rid of old, dried
fruit left over from last year’s
crop. All dead branches should
be cut and burned, too. And if
possible, the area beneath the
trees should be turned to keep
down weeds.
Georgia College Loan, Scholarship
Plan Tops Says Gov. Carl Sanders
Gov. Carl E. Sanders talked on a wide range of topics the other
day when he addressed the ninth annual convention of the Georgia
AFL-CIO in his home town of Augusta.
He told of the progress Georgia
’ is making in various fields, es
pecially in industrial growth, and
said the state labor organization
■ “has a deserved reputation for
’ fair collective bargaining” and
1 that its activities “have rebound
• ed to the benefit of the whole
state.”
But the governor’s favorite sub
ject — as it frequently is — was
1 education. Here’s what he said
' on that topic:
“Our high schools and colleges
J are constantly being improved to
i keep up with the challenge of
this century.
“During the four years of this
administration, we will spend ev
er $1.205-billion for the educa
tion and training of Georgians,
S4OO-million more than in the pre
vious four-year period.”
Referring to the recently es
tablished state shcolarship and
state college loan programs, Gov.
Sanders declared:
“Today in Georgia, we have
two new programs that mean no
i qualified Georgia student will be
j turned away In his efforts to se-
I cure a higher education because
ihe cannot pay his school expen
ses .. .
“In my opinion, these two new
educational programs are the
most important developments in
Georgia education since we first
established state-supported high
schools almost a century ago. As
governor, I am proud to have had
a part in establishing and financ
ing them.”
The scholarship program calls
for 450 grants to go to deserving,
qualified Georgia students in the
