At one of the meetings Gov.
Carter is holding to try to sell
legislators on his reorganization ;
program, a South Georgia
Representative told the governor '
that it seemed to him that Car
ter “is taking government away
from the people and making it
harder for the people to get to
their officials". He was referr
ing to the fact that the governor
will name a top man over each
of the 18 departments his plan
would set up, and these men will
be responsible only to the gov
ernor.
The Representative was cor
rect. But, not only will it be
harder for the people to get to
someone in authority, but it will,
aho, be harder for the members
of the General Assembly to in
fluence state affairs. In fact, >t
would seem that the consuma
tion of reorganization will be the
death of legislative indepen
dence.
Those legislators who last
year voted for House Bill No.
1 didn't take into consideration
the fact that it will be almost
impossible for either House or
Senate to act on the governor's
program within 15 davs, parti
cularly so if a committee wants
to delav a vote. (The bi’l gives
the Assembly only 15 davs to
kill Carter's executive ordc
puttm" the plan into effect; if
not killed in that period, it is
law).
Os course, constitutional of
ficers have the power to veto
any change in their duties and
responsibilities, but the go.
ernor can always have a bill in
troduced to do the same thing,
and it would requ’re on’y a
sirnp'e nvioritv to pass Also
one can imagine the amount of
pressure which can be put on
an official to eo along.
The non-c’ected department
heMs have no veto power over
chances in their agencies, so it
will be almost impossible for
anv of them to mount a succes
ful campaign to bring the As
sembly to come to their aid
The Department of Veterans
Service — it seems to us — is
the on ! v one with much of a
chance to do so
The entire reorganization
pro^m smacks of being a b d
for almost dictatorial power to
the governor’s office, rather
than improving economy and ef
ficiency in government. If the
pregram becomes law. legislators
had better start learning how
to kneel cracefullv whenever
thev go to the governor’s office
for a favor.

U. S. Senator David Gambrell
started off his tour of the state

Another thing: How significant
is it that he is making a particu

his word about reducing such

any rate, every state official ac
cepts speaking engagements,
which they make at state ex

he gets more invitations than
everybody else put together, ex

years with the State Dept of

but you can tie to one sure value:
m electricity.
vT Price is what you pay for what you get. Throughout
the history of the electric industry the trend in the
price of electricity has been downward, in the past
10 years, for example, our average price per residen
tial kilowatt-hour has dropped almost 16 percent.
You know what's happened to the prices of other
goods and services.
Value is what you get for what you pay. For two
cents' worth of electricity you can brew 50 cups of

No man can tether time or tide. The economy

jMKjR GEORGIA
ATLANTA (PRN) - Much
has been said and written in
the past week or so about the
question of busing to achieve
some arbitrary racial quota in
our schools. I am. and always
have been opposed to the idea.
Almost fifty cents of every
tax dollar goes to education,
and we still are not providing
proper educational
opportunities for all
Georgians. It just does not
make sense to me to have to
spend part of this money to
haul students ail over town.
There is no way for us to treat
each student as an individual if
the federal government is
going to ship them around like
so many impersonal numbers.
I hope that President Nixon
is sincere in his stated
opposition to busing, but 1 am
still waiting for some action
instead of just words. He
might start by insuring that
the South is treated with the
same degree of fairness as the
rest of the nation.
On a different subject, I
want to thank the hundreds of
people who have written to
express their support for a
more efficient Georgia
government. It is no surprise
to me that support and
encouragement is coming from
the honest hard working
people who pay the tax bill
while opposition seems to be
limited to those folks who
have boon at the oublic trough

Q. I plan to retire next year.
I have my parents’ family Bible
showing my age, an insurance
policy taken out when 1 was
16, and my marriage license
showing my age 23 at the time.
Friends tell me I should get
a delayed birth certificate. Is
this necessary?
A. No. We can use the
records you have to show your
age. You do not need to get a
delayed birth certificate for
our purposes.
Q. My husband died five
years ago. I received the funeral
payment. I will be 60 years
old in a few months. What
records will I need when I apply
for benefits?
A. You will need your mar
riage certificate, proof of your
age, a record of his social
security numberandyour social
security number (if you have
ever had one.)
Q. 1 plan to retire at age
63. My husband will also be
65. He has been an invalid for
10 years, and I have been his
only source of support. Can
he receive benefits on my ac
count?
A. Yes. Since you furnished
over half his support, he will
be eligible for benefits equal
to half the amount you will
draw at age 65.
Q. 1 recently had my annual
physical examination. Will the
doctor's charge be paid
by Medicare?
A. No. Medical insurance
under Medicare does not cover
routine examinations which are
not for the purpose of diag
nosing or treating specific,
symptoms.

EDITOR’S NOTE: Below
are authoritative answers by
the Veterans Administration to
some of the many current ques

and their families. Further in-'
formation on veterans benefits
may be obtained at any VA of-
so long they have forgotten
how to get out and sweat for

Another thing that gets to
be a little amusing now and
then is the antics of what 1 call
the “secret meeting crowd”.
You can just about bet that
when a group of politicians are
getting ready to try to put
something over on the people
the first thing they will do is
to set up a secret meeting. Os
course, everybody in the state
finds out about it in short
order and the participants end
up having to tell some tall
tales about what actually went
on. I personally am a little
suspicious of somebody who
tells me that they have been
acting in my best interests but
won’t tell me what they did. I
think the Georgia people are
too.
I expect half the hotels in
Atlanta would be out of
business if it were not for the
trade that the “secret meeting
crowd” brings in. Os course,
every now and then you run
up on a really high class group
that only meets in country
clubs, but that is not quite as
stylish as it once was.
Well, I think the people of

that is a bad mistake to make.

I do about this?
A— VA will sendyour check

you submit a VA change of

BY DEAN WOHLGEMUTH
f GEORGIA GAM 1 AND
FISH COMMISSION
ATLANTA (PRN) - Let
me today tell you a fairy tale;
not a Grimes Fairy Tale,
maybe a grim tale, but mostly
a Wohlgemuth fairy ‘ale which
I’m actually making up as I
write this.
It seems there was this
group of people in a certain
area who dearly loved and
deeply craved wild
blackberries . . .not the
homegrown, cultured type
berry, but the wild ones.
When this group initially
settled the area, there was a
local abundance of a very
succulent native berry. They
enjoyed them, thrived on
them, and even became
somewhat famous because of
these berries. People came
from quite some distance to
get the berries and the berry
products produced by the
local people. However, in a
few short years they found the
supply dwindling rapidly,
because they harvested all that
were produced, cleared paths
through the berry patches to
allow more people to pick
berries, and began building
homes and businesses all over
the area to the point that
some of the berry patches had
to be bulldozed out in order
to make room for “progress.”
The local people called a
meeting to study the problem
and finally, after lengthy
arguments, decided what they
needed was a specialist, a
blackberry expert. He would
tell them why the berries
weren’t producing better, and
how they could improve the
wild berry production.
It took some doing to get
all the minds in accord enough
to select the expert, but it
finally was accomplished, and
he went to work. Soon, he
returned some re
commendations to them, such
as they must limit the number
tary. The possibility ofchanging
,a discharge classification,
however, is not limited to drug
users.
Georgia Veterans Service
Director Pete Wheeler this
week reminded veterans pos
sessing “something less than
an honorable discharge” that
they may be able to secure a
review of their discharge.
Wheeler explained, “Each
branch of the service has es
tablished a Discharge Review
Board which is authorized to
review applications for change
in character of discharge. The
Discharge Review Board is a
permanent board comprised of
high ranking active duty mili
tary officers, generally five in
number.
“This Discharge Review-
Board may accept an appeal
for review of a discharge or
dismissal from service in the
case of any administrative dis
charge or any discharge direc
ted by the sentence of court
martial, except general court
martial, and appeal must be
made within 15 years of the
date of release from active
duty.”
Generally speaking, the
prime basis on which an appeal
may be made is the existance
of “new andmaterial evidence”
in the case. An applicant lias
the right to make a personal
appearance before the Dis
charge Review Board in Wash
ington. All expenses incurred
by such a personal appearance,
however, must be borne by the
applicant.
“It is necessary and im
portant,” said Wheeler, “to
support an application for re
view of discharge with any and
all evidence available.”
Any veteran who is confronted
with such a problem about his
discharge may secure more
advice and information from -
any office of the Georgia De
partment of Veterans Service.

of berries any one family
could take, and the number
that might be sold to
“outsiders.” Further, they
must not, under any
circumstances, make any more
paths through berry patches,
and must not build on any
more berry patches .. .all
existing patches must be
allowed to remain; in fact,
they would need to find land
on which to plant more
berries.
Well, the high salary spent
on the berry expert was
wasted, because they didn’t
want a limit on how many
berries they could pick, where
they could build, where they
could put roads, and further,
they did not want to pay lor
land on which to plant be:ries.
Everyone thought he knew
more than the expert, and no
one listened to him.
Consequently, in a year or two
all the berries were gone.
The moral of the story?
Simple. They were wise to hire
an expert to tell them how to
best use their berry crop. But
they were foolish in not
letting him do his job, so his
efforts were nil.
This story could happen to
sportsmen. They want more
wildlife and they expect the
efforts of the Game and Fish
Commission experts to
produce more wildlife. But
some think they know more
about wildlife resource
management than do the
experts. And the price of
having to follow the experts’
advice is too high . .so they
do as they wish. They hunt
deer at night, exceed bag
limits, and generally break all
the conservation laws.
Do you suppose they’ll be
surprised when there is no
more hunting or fishing left?
They probably won’t
understand.
