When the time comes to file

Bryan County did not begin to
keep birth records until 1918
and many churches have lost
their old records, so not every

Governor Takes
Tax Program To
State Students
ATLANTA — (GPS) Gov.
Lester G. Maddox addressing
the doctoral fellows of Geor
gia State College’s School of
Business Administration, com
mended the Atlanta college
for its efforts in helping Geor
gia youngsters to get a high
er education, regardless of the
financial circumstances.
"There is not another col
lege in Georgia,” he said,
that can fill the place now
occupied by Georgia State in
meeting Georgia’s education
needs, and it is destined to
become even more important
as years go by.”
While prasing the college
and its administrators and fa
culty, the governor devoted
most of his speech emphasiz
ing the need for his tax pro
posals now before the General
Assembly. For example, he
declared:
“We are proud of our ad
vances in education, and the
sound progress we have made
in penal reform, mental health
care, highways, schools and
many other areas, but we can
not grow complacent. We
cannot meet the challenges of
tomorrow with the accom
plishments of yesterday.
“Just as you here would not
expect to win your doctor
ate degree because you have
written an excellent master’s
thesis, so we, down at the
State Capitol, know we can’t
grind tomorrow’s meal with
water that went over the dam
today.
“Our expanding programs
and facilities and the often
times desperate plight of our
cities and counties demand
new tax revenues. All of
Georgia cannot continue to
move forward with her pre
sent antiquated and inadequate
tax structure.”
To meet this challenge, Gov.
Maddox said he has requested
the General Assembly to ap
prove a one-cent sales tax in
crease, the extra one-cent tax
to be collected and disbursed
by the state to local govern
ments and local school sys
tems.
“If adopted,” he asserted,
“this measure would herald a
new and brighter day for all
Os Georgia, an^ not just part
of it, as the prosposed reg
ional local option tax plan
would do.”
Expressing confidence that
once the members of the Gen
eral Assembly “understand
this proposal and what it can
do for Georgia that they will
give it their earnest consider
ation and their complete sup
port,” Maddox said:
“Some are saying ‘hold the
line,’ but I am saying it is
time to get on the line ... I
am calling upon the people of
Georgia and the members of
the General Assembly to get
on the line with this adminis
tration so that we may con
tinue to expand economic op
portunities for all our citi
zens.”

Reports have made reference
to fruit rot on pears and plums.
Well, it didn’t just happen; it
was caused.
Rot-causing fungi and bac
teria are present in every home
orchard. During the winter,
these tiny organisms live in
bark cavities or on dead twigs
and old decayed fruit. When
warm weather comes, these
fungi get on young tender
leaves, and then onto the fruit.
The time to begin a rot con
trol program is weeks before
the rot shows up. Once you see
the disease, it is too late.
There are several things
which need to be done now to
prevent rots and blights this
summer.
(1) Remove all dried up fruit
left on the trees from last sea
son.
(2) Rake and dispose of all
leaves and rotten fruit on the
ground beneath the tree.
(3) Prune out all dead and
diseased wood.
(5) Spray with a strong solu
tion of liquid lime-sulfer before
the new growth begins.
(5) Follow recommended
spray schedule for insect and
disease control.
For additional information on
this subject, you may request
from my office a copy of Ex

Bells of Stone Mountain - Carillon at Stone Mountain Park,
Stone Mountain, Ga.
(Ga. Dept, of Industry & Trade)
TOUR
GEORGIA
STONE MOUNTAIN, (PRN) -
Visitors to Historic Stone
Mountain have a musical treat
in store for them.
The music is beautiful,
haunting and definitely not
associated with the average
tourist attraction. But then
Historic Stone Mountain does
not claim to be average.
The melodic notes caressing
the mountain, the woods and
echoing across the lakes
originate from a 610-bell
carillon known as the Bells of
Stone Mountain. Originally
created as the “Carillon
Americana” for the Coca-Cola
Company exhibit at the New
York World’s Fair, the carillon
.now is permanently housed in
a modernistic structure at
Stone Mountain.
The Carillon Tower is a
slender spiral of redwood and
steel, located on a peninsula
extending into the lake. The
construction is unusual. The
tower is built of redwood and
a new steel-alloy, mayari, and
is designed to last for
centuries. The steel will rust,
then form a permanent oxide
patina which will last forever,
according to experts.
The tower is deceiving.
Although 13-stories high, it
appears much smaller when
viewed from a distance,
dwarfed by the gigantic,
granite mountain serving as its
College Campus
Revolts Must Be
Quelled-Herman
ATLANTA — (GPS) U. S.
Sen. Herman E. Talmadge, a
firm believer in the stability
of the vast majority of today’s
youth, has called for a nat
ional crackdown on “agita
tors and revolutionaries” who
have ignited violence on col
lege campuses.
Speaking on the floor of the
Senate the other day, the sena
tor said “in recent months
this nation has been plagued
by riots, revolts, obsene and
disorderly conduct of virtually
every type on the campuses
of colleges and universities
throughout the land.” with
“entire colleges laid under
siege.”
Declaring that “thousands
upon thousands of conscien
tious law-abiding students
have been denied their right
to an education,” Sen. Tal
madge said “they have lost
their right to safety on the
campus,” and “tax dollars at
public institutions have gone
down the drain.” He added:
“An abject minority of stu
dents and non-students —
whipped into a riotous frenzy
by professional agitators and
revolutionaries — are threa
tening to tear down the very
foundations of higher educa
tion.
“And while all this has been
going on, placid erstwhile do
gooders, including some col
lege administrators them
selves, have been standing
along the sidelines thinking
lofty thoughts and saying nice
things about ‘the right to dis
sent’ and ‘academic freedom.’
backdrop. There’s an outdoor
amphitheater for listeners
beside the glass and stone
carillon console building. It’s
equally intriquing to listen to
the bells at night from across
the lake. There’s a parking
area at both vantage points.
The Bells of Stone
Mountain consists of ten sets
of bells, each with its own
characteristic tone, color and
containing a chromatic range
of 61-notes.
The carillon is of unusual
construction. Were it made
with traditional cast bronze
bells, they would have
weighed more than two
million pounds. Instead, the
music comes from bell-tone
rods which are struck by
individual hammers, producing
pure bell sounds. These are
then amplified more than a
million times and broadcast by
specially designed stentors in
the tower.
Carillon concerts are now
part of the daily schedule at
Historic Stone Mountain with
special programs scheduled
throughout the year. Concerts
feature classical, semi-classical
and popular music.
For an enjoyable weekend
or afternoon trip, the Tourist
Division, Department of
Industry and Trade suggests a
visit to Historic Stone
Mountain.
They remind me of Nero play
ing the fiddle while Rome was
burning to the ground all
around him.”
Summing up, Sen. Talmadge
said: “I submit that the time
has come for the appropriate
authorities, both state and
college officials and local law
enforcement agencies, to take
hold of this problem.
There is no place in the
American society for anarch
ists of any kind, whether they
be of the student, still-wet
behind-the-ears variety, or the
adult, full-grown career type.
“In short, I say that the
time has come for law and
order on our campuses to be
restored . . . And, in the name
of all that we hold civilized,
let order prevail over an
archy, let law rule over the
lawless.
“And above all let it be
known that ours is not a
strong-arm banana republic
wherein hoodlums can take
over the campuses, the streets
and the cities like a bunch of
bomb-throwing rebels.”

THE PEMBROKE JOURNAL, Thun day. March 6, 1969-
I
Gov. Lester Maddox
People
ATLANTA (PRN) - I have
often been influenced by these
words from Abraham Lincoln:
“Let every American, every
lover of liberty, every
well-wisher to his posterity
swear by the blood of the
Revolution never to violate in
the least particular the laws of
the country, and never to
tolerate their violation by
others.”
The enforcement of these
laws is the difficult task that
we have ■
a ssi gned I
our police- 1
men, and -
those of us ’
who cherish '
our liberties ]
should]
offer our |
full and |
continued I
support to ‘
these dedicated men.
In recent years the
dedication of our police
officers, and the strength of
our nation, has been put to
the test.
Vicious criminal assaults on
our police officers have
increased alarmingly.
Last year, in Atlanta, 357
police officers were assaulted
by criminals and suspected
criminals that they were trying
to arrest or question. One
hundred and sixteen of these
men had to be hospitalized for
treatment. And two others
were killed in the line of duty
-- killed, while protecting our
lives, and our property.
Over the past few months
in our state two State
Troopers have been critically
wounded in the line of duty.
Around ten days ago two
Atlanta policemen were the
victims of a shotgun blast
triggered by a robbery suspect.
In Washington D. C., during
the Inauguration Ceremonies,
a lone police officer was
singled out by a roving group
of anti-American weird-beard
demonstrators - pushed to the
ground - and was literally
being stomped to death when
some of his fellow officers
rescued him. Other police
officers, in other sections of
the country, have not been so
fortunate. One, in Newark,
New Jersey, was stomped to
death by a crowd of rioters
and looters with the complete
approval of some of our

pampered militant civil rights
leaders.
Tears and mourning for this
officer were found only in his
home. Public officials in
Washington -■ members of the
news media - and other
“leaders” in our society were
saving their tears and sorrow
so that they could exhibit
them in public when criminals,
bums, Communists and
anti-American militants met
with the same violence that
they had promoted across our
country.
Some people may not like
to hear that said — but, then,
the truth always has been hard
for some to swallow.
There are some facts that
are hard for me to swallow,
too — and one of them is the
fact that the restrictions being
placed on some of our police
officers are watering down
their effectiveness and further
endangering the safety of our
law-abiding citizens and their
property.
In a large city in Texas,
policemen have been told that
if they so much as fire their
guns at a suspect they will be
immediately suspended from
the force until a hearing is
held. Under these
circumstances a policeman
must choose between putting
his job in danger, or stopping a
criminal. Now I can’t think of
a word that can adequately
describe a regulation such as
this — but, phooey, to the
tenth power, comes mighty
close.
This is ridiculous - just
plain ridiculous.
If restrictions like these are
placed on our policemen it
might not be long before they
are ordered not to shoot at all
— unless they are first shot at.
I can picture it now —a
suspect holding a gun on a
police officer, or some victim,
and the police officer
patiently waiting until the
suspect takes a shot at him, so
that he can shoot back. In that
same picture I can also see a
total collapse of law and order
and a reign of complete
anarchy.
The citizens of our State
would not be safe on any
street patrolled by a
policeman who was prevented
or restricted from even
protecting his own life.
