Mr. Shaw, in explaining his
concept for the Symphony’s
25th Anniversary Season said,
“First, within the limits of our
subscription series, we tried to
represent those American
composers of the past
half-century whose general
public acceptance and whose
actual volume of work offered
some hope that history might
find them as being in the‘main
stream’ of American music of
this present and just-past era.
“Second, in the case of each
composer we tried to program a
major work significant to them
or to the historical ‘direction’
of American music.”
“Had we chosen only
shorter works we might have
been able to double our
representation. Nor were we, at
this moment, seeking the
newest. strangest, most
experimental compositions of
the avant garde ... We were
after major symphonic works
of the major American
Symphonists.”
This year’s season with 141
concerts extends from
September through May and
includes tou rs into six states.
For stimulating
entertainment, the Tourist
Division of the Georgia
Department of Industry and
Trade suggests you make plans
to hear the Atlanta Symphony
.Orchestra.
September 21-27
Highway Week
For Georgia
ATLANTA, GEORGIA —
Calling statewide attention to
the importance of our highways
and to the efforts being made to
improve them and urging every
citizen to “dedicate his utmost
energies and abilities” to their
safe use, Governor Lester Mad
dox has designated the week of
September 21-27 as “Highway
Week” in Georgia.
The Governor’s proclamation
noted that the highways of
Georgia and the Nat o n have
helped to give our country “a
total transportation system un
surpassed by any nation, now
and in all history,” and made
reference to a cooperative ef
fort by all levels of govern
ment and a huge commercial
industry to provide an ever-bet
ter system for an ever-growing
need.
He emphasized that while
this program benefits every
citizen directly or indirectly, its
cost is borne “by the highway
user in proportion to his use”
through the State and Federal
motor fuel tax and other “road
user” taxes.
State Highway Director Jim
L. Gillis noted that this will be
the ninth observance of this na
tionwide effort to concentrate
public attention on the services
rendered by highways, the road
builders’ efforts to improve
these services, and the need for
continuance of a strong, stable
highway program.
“Highways affect everybody,
one way or another, just about
every day of their lives. Plan
ning, designing, building, and
maintaining them is a full-time
job for almost 1.4 million Amer
icans.
“According to national statis
tics, highway transportation ac
counts for one out of every six
businesses and one of every
seven jobs in this country. And
as the Governor, pointed out,
every citizen gets needed goods
and services and other benefits
through our highway system.
“But there’s still a lot to do.
We’re going to have bigger
traffic volumes every year,
more accidents and delays, un
less the highway progarm keeps
going.
“And we need public support
for that — patience and cooper
ation as well as money. That’s
why we have Highway Week.”
The Highway Director said
the Highway Department’s
Highway Week activities would
be largely local in nature, with
division and residency offices
spotlighting the program at the
local level. At the Atlanta
headquarters level, special em
phasis will be given to research
activities.
“At this time, we have a total
of 16 research projects under
way which will involve the ex
penditure of around a half-mil
lion dollars during the year.
I This makes 1969 a banner year
in this field, aimed at doing a
better job on tomorrow’s high
ways.
“The national theme for
Highway Week 1969—which we
used as a state theme in 1967—
I is ‘Highways Bring Better Liv
ing. We feel that ‘Research
I Brings Better Highways’ would
be a logical follow-up to the
national theme for our observ
ance” Mr. Gillis concluded.
A PROCLAMATION
HIGHWAY WEEK 1969
By The Governor:
Whereas: The highways of
our State and of these United
States have helped to give us
a total transportation system
unsurpassed by any nation now
and in all history; and
Whereas: The cooperative ef
forts of all levels of govern
ment and of a huge allied com
mercial industry are channeled
into a massive program of re
search, planning, construction,
and upkeep to insure that our
highway system remains al
ways the best and becomes ever
better in the face of an ever
growing need; and
Whereas: The cost of this
mammoth effort is borne by
the highway user in proportion
to his use, while its benefits ex
tend beyond the user to every
citizen through faster, more
economical transport of goods
and services, through increased
land values, through a general
enrichment of our economy and
our society, and in other ways;
and
Whereas: It has become cus
tomary to give nationwide rec
ognition to these facts through
the observance of an annual
“Highway Week” throughout
the nation; now
Therefore: I, Lester Maddox,
Governor of the State of Geor
gia, do hereby designate the
week of September 21-27, 1969,
as “Highway Week” in Geor
gia; calling upon every citizen
to reflect upon the contribu-
