The Georgia State Demo
cratic Exccutive Committee is
holding a series of public hear
ings throughout the state re
garding proposed changes in the
rules and procedures of the
Democratic Party. The first two
were held in Savannah and Way
cross and attracted large crowds
of intercsted Democrats.
Incidentally, at these hear
ings, Party Secretary Conley
Ingram and National Commit
teeman Bill Gunter are receiv
ing many plaudits for the fine
presentation they are making.

Speaking of the Democrats,
Joe Sports, Executive Director
of the Party, has made the
first prediction as to the date
and site of next year's National
Convention. He says it will be
in Miami, beginning July 9.
Georeinns who will attend sure
hope his educated guess is cor
rect as regards the location.

IN ALL MY YEARS in the Senate, I do not recall such an
intense expression of public outrage as that produced by the ver
dict in the court-martial of Lt. Calley at Fort Benning.
My offices in Washington and Atlanta were deluged by tele
grams and telephone calls from all over Georgia. Outrage best
describes the attitude of every one of them.
* N *
WAR UNDER THE BEST of conditions is a horrible thing.
When young men are drafted and sent off to fight, kill, and die
against their will, it is even more distressing and horrible.
The war in Southeast Asia has divided our country more than
any time since the War Between the States more than 100 years
ago. Most Americans have been shocked by stories of atrocities
in the news media that we get almost daily from Southeast Asia.
This is a war where it is impossible to tell friend from foe.
There is no rear. There is no flank. There is no front. Women
and even children frequently fire upon our troops.
Most Americans have been shocked at the circumstances sur
rounding the court-martial of Lt. Calley. Most Americans believe
that he is assuming the burden for the entire war, including the
errors of his superiors.
As a former combat veteran myself, I am saddened to think
that one could fight for his flag and then be court-martialed and
convicted for apparently carrying out his orders.
[ don’t know what the final outcome of the Calley case will be,
but I am confident that it will be appealed to the highest authorities
in the land, including the President.
* * *
THE CALLEY CASE is just another manifestation of the grow
ing tragedy of Vietnam. It is a shame and disgrace that the Ameri
can nation would ever have allowed itself to get so deeply involved
in such a terrible situation.
I feel very strongly that the sooner we are able to extricate
ourselves from this war and return our men home, the better off
our country and all our people will be. Moreover, it is my further
hope that we have learned a lesson, and that the United States
will stop trying to police the whole world.

Quality Hay
By David H, Williams
Hay production is Becoming
increasingly important in
Georgia. In fact, it was our
No. 6 cash crop last year --
behind peanuts, tobacco, corn,
cotton and soybeans. Growers
‘ harvested 416,000 acres for
" hay, averaged nearly three tons
per acre, and realized a total
value of $26.3 million.
Improving quality of the hay
produced will make the crop
even more important. One thing
about quality hay -~ it is weed-
ATLANTA (PRN) - Earl
Williams is only 23 years old,
Yet, he may be the most
versatile player in big league
baseball.
The young Braves utility
man has played five different
positions during his short
professional career-pitcher,
first base, third base, outfield
and catcher.
“It seems that I ended up
playing a lot of different
positions purely out of
coincidence,” Williams said.
“In high school and little
league, anybody who could
throw the ball hard was a
pitcher. I could hit fairly well,
so they let me play first base
on the days I didn’t pitch.”
“When the Braves signed
me, I thought I was going to
be a first baseman, but they
made me a pitcher,”” he
continued. “I wasn’t used to
the idea of pitching one day
and then sitting on the bench
for a few days until it was
time to pitch again. I wanted
to play every day, and
anyway, I didn’t like the idea
of them pinch hitting for me
in late innings.
“] finally asked them to
switch me to first base, where
I played until they asked me
to play third base last spring.
The change was rather abrupt.
They may have been thinking
about it for a while, but it was
a surprise to me. There were a
lot of little simple things I had
to adjust to, like having to
make the fast throw across the
infield, but I got used to it
after three or four games.
“The biggest surprise came
this winter when they asked
me to try catching,”” he added.
“That scared me a little
because you can’t just put on
a mask, step behind home
plate and be a good catcher.
It’s probably the hardest
position on the field to play,
and I knew [ would need a lot
of instruction and the kind of
experience you can only get
from playing in the games.”
free hay. Weeds increase fiber
content, reduce palatability and
lower feed nutrients.
A good weed control program
in hay fields includes lime and
fertilizer according to soil test
results, controlled grazing and
use of weed-free seed.
Quality is also improved if
plants are kept in the green
vegetative stage, Therefore,
hay should be harvested before
plants reach maturity.
Use of chemical weed killers,
or herbicides, should be on a
basis of the dominant weeds
present. General recommen
dations call for one-half to
two pounds of 2,4-D or 2,45-T
per acre. A combination of
2,4-D and 2,45-T may be used.
It’s best to apply herbicides
when weeds are less than two
to three inches tall, Use lower
rates for small weeds, higher
rates for large and hard-to
kill weeds.
Be sure to use only the non
volatile amine form of 2,4-D.
Restrict grazing of milking
dairy cows for seven to ten
days after treatment. And don’t
remove any hay, either, for
seven to ten days.
The Insect War
“It’s war!’’ That's the way
Emmette Harris, of our Ex~
tension entomology department,
describes our “battle with the
bugs.’’
Since before the dawn of his
tory, he points out, insects
have fought man for control of
this planet, ‘“They attack us,
our food, our clothing, our
houses, our animals and nearly
everything else we hold valu
able. And as if a direct attack
were not enough, they also
spread diseases -of man, of
animals and of plants.
Many years insects came
pretty close to winning this
war. Then man developed an
entirely new arsenal of wea
pons -- the insecticides. It
looked as if man might finally
win his war, or at least hold
his own against the insect horde.
But there turned up in our
own ranks those saying that
some of our weapons might
pollute the environment and thus
should be outlawed,
They apparently forget that
noxious insects are much worse
pollutants of the environment.
Admittedly, some of our syn=
thetic organic insecticides have
caused some harm, especially
when misused. But the good
Williams’ outfield
experience came last summer -
when he was moved up to
Richmond from Shreveport of
the Texas League. He had a
.318 average at Shreveport,
and they wanted his bat in the
lineup at Richmond. Only,
Richmond already had two
outstanding first basemen in
Jim Breazeale and Hal Breeden
(now with the Cubs) and a
fine third baseman in Darrell
Evans. As a result, Williams
went through a month of
service in the Richmond
outfield
“I really don’t care where I
play from the standpoint that
my main objective was to
make-it to the major leagues,”
Williams continued. “But if I
had my first choice, I would
like to be a first baseman.
Wherever [ play, I try to keep
in mind that I want to do the
best job possible to help the
team. ”
As a utility man with the
Braves now, big Earl is not
seeing as frequent service as he
has been used to in the
minors. How does this affect
him?
““Of course, I want to play
everyday,” he answered “But
my main objective is to help
the team. I know age is on my
side and that if I'm patient
now, the time should soon
come when I can play
regularly. As for the waiting, it
hasn’t really bothered me. The
newness of the big leagues still
has me excited, and I don’t
think I’ll be getting restless
until some of the glitter wears
off.” BRAVES NOTES -- The
next big promotional day
coming up at Atlanta Stadium
is Circus Day on Sunday, April
25, between games of the
Braves-Padres doubleheader.
Free balloons will be given to
the youngsters at the game,
and there will be special circus
acts on the field. The Circus

might cause.
Then there is the world popu~

We can’t afford to let insects

FREEZER FOOD CLUBS
We are planning to buy a
freezer. Would it help us to
buy through a freezer food
plan?
The way most freezer food
plans work, you will have to
sign a contract to buy the
freezer, and pay an initial
membership fee of as much as
$300.00. What does this
membership offer you? Merely
the right to buy three months
worth of food at supposedly
wholesale prices. This means
‘that you will be faced with an
immediate investment of
about a thousand dollars, and
another two or three hundred
every three months.
Supposedly the first
$300.00 entitles you to a
“lifetime”” membership in the
freezer food club - but, whose
life, yours or theirs? In some
instances, freezer food clubs
have gone out of business in a
short period of time. Also,
remember, special price sales
in super markets are
frequently very low, and the
super market does not charge
you a membership fee to shop
there.
Before joining such a plan
you should find out if you
could get a better price on the
freezer at a retail store, find
out how long the company has
been in business, and if it has a
stable reputation, and

Probably not. While there .

that are just after a fast buck.
Most of the reputable product

offer this service for much less
than five dollars a month,

there are monthly magazines
