ALWAYS ON MONDAYS - Governor Lester Maddox and
representatives of the Georgia travel industry, indicate with
their fingers the additional number of long weekend holidays to
begin in Georgia in 1971, after the governor signed into law the
Monday Holiday bill, becoming the first law enacted by the
General Assembly in the 1969 session. Georgia also became the
first state this year to enact the legislation and second state to
adopt the proposal, providing that Washington's Birthday;
Memorial Day ; Veterans Day and Columbus Day be observed on
Mondays, rather than a specific date. The bill was introduced by
Sen. Ford Spinks of Tifton, chairman of the Senate Tourist
Study Committee, (2nd from right). Others are (I to r) Eric
Holmes, Petroleum Council of Georgia; Rep. Jones Lane,
Statesboro, who managed the bill in the House; Glenn Anthony,
Georgia Slate Chamber of Commerce; Glenn McCullough,
Georgia Press Assn and chairman of the Governor’s Advisory
Commission on travel Development, and Clint Sweazea. Delta

Pembroke Well Represented At
District Press Meeting In Dublin
Saturday night Mayor and Mrs. F. 0. Miller went to
Dublin to attend the winter meeting of the First District
Press Association, and had as their guests on the trip
Mr. and Mrs. George Taylor of Savannah, and Mr. and
Mrs. Eugene Cowart of Pembroke.
The meeting was held at the Moose Club, with Edi
tor W. H. Champion anti the Dublin Courier Herald as
hosts. To say that the affair at the Moose Club was a
delightful one is putting it mildly. There was about
twenty-five present, and due to the fact that the Presi
dent of the First District Press Association could not be
present due to the illness of Mrs. Lee, the Pembroke
Editor who is vice president presided at the meeting.
After a delightful time at the Moose Club we were
invited to visit the office of the Dublin Courier Herald, to
see their modern typesetting equipment which is being
installed as well as a battery of 6 of the latest Goss High
Speed newspaper presses, and all the other hundred and
one things that it takes to print a modern daily news
paper. Their old equipment while it was “clean as a pin,”
and doing a fine job, it was not considered up to date
and it is being discarded in order to bring the equip
ment up to date. We found the newspaper people in Dub
lin about the nicest people to entertain a group of little
newspaper people and show them the sights that we have
ever met with. Truly, it was a delightful party for all
of the Pembroke group and all the others so far as we
could see. We look forward to another trip to Dublin
when they get all the new equipment in operation.

Gov. Lester Maddox
Reports Tft thd People
ATLANTA (PRN) - In a
society of free men, each
citizen must assume a few
basic responsibilities if he is to
enjoy the rights and privileges
afforded by such a society.
Once laws are established
which give one individual, or
one group, rights and
privileges which are not given
to all citizens, then the entire
system begins to erode. When
we cease to
be a nation
governed
by laws,
and become
a nation
governed
by men,
then we are
no longer
free men,
we are
slaves.
This process of
Constitutional erosion began
in earnest with the so-called
“Civil Rights Act of 1954”
and the Supreme Court ruling
in the same year. This was
followed by the Civil Rights
Act of 1957, and then another
in 1964; a Voter’s Rights Bill
in 1965 and, finally, we saw
the passing of an Open
Housing Law in 1968.
Those who hunger for
peace cannot adequately feed
those who hunger for food.
Those who seek refuge
from assault cannot provide
shelter for those who seek
refuge from the cold.
Those who are sick with
fear cannot provide a cure for
those whose bodies are
diseased.

Message to the Georgia
General Assembly, I stressed
that it was my desire to see
that an opportunity for
self-fulfillment is available to
every Georgia citizen, rich and
poor, black and white, young
and old.
1 was sincere then, and I am
sincere now when I say that I
am willing to do everything
within my power to help any
person who is willing to put
forth his own best efforts to
help himself.
My budget proposals will
go far toward providing such
opportunity. They are
designed to allow all Georgians
to enjoy some of the
prosperity now being enjoyed
by so many.
My proposals envision more
and better jobs for people who
want to work, better
educational opportunities for
our young, better care for our
needy and our mentally ill,
and a greater chance of
rehabilitation for those who
have run afoul of the law, but
who want to live productive,
law-abiding lives.
But, I know that these tax
dollars will not buy law and
order. We have seen this
proved time and time again as
attempts have been made to
bribe the mobs in city streets
and on campuses throughout
the United States.
Law and order will become
a reality, rather than just a
promise, only when all citizens
come to respect the law. And
respect for the law will come
about only when all laws are
justly written and justly
enforced.

The pictures which appear below were made at the banqu t at the Holiday Inn at Richmond Hill, and which was the occa
sion of presenting a 20-Year Certificate for meritorious service as an employee of the Bryan County Health Department. Miss
Ann Parrish was the little lady so honored, and the affair had the Health Department Officials, of Savannah, Dr. Lundquist,
Mark Harbison, Miss Cannon, W. W. Wilson and Roger Apell and wife, and the Director of the Bryan County Health Depart
ment, Mrs. Jewel Owens, on hand for the occasion. Others present were Chairman of the County Commissioners, Hon. Jerry
Wilson and Mrs. Wilson, Mr. and Mrs. Warren Miller, Mr. and Mrs. J. Dixie Harn, Mr. and Mrs. Eugene Mock, Mr. and Mrs.
Ralph Owens, Mrs. Perry Parrish and Ann, and Mayor and Mrs. Frank O. Miller of Pembroke. The affair was one of the
nicest that we have ever attended and certainly there is no finer or nicer place to have an affair like this than the million
dollar Holiday Inn at Richmond Hill, their food is “delectable,” their service cannot be beat and the prices are more than reas
onable when you consider what you get and where you are dining.
